Immigrant family scavenges toxic water for a meal
In Galveston Bay’s San Jacinto channels, dozens of immigrants and locals fish for sustenance despite warnings of cancer-causing dioxins and PCBs. The San Jacinto Waste Pits site, now capped in a $10 million cleanup, raises ongoing concerns as authorities probe another suspected toxin source. Torrea, a parent, weighs feeding children against health risks amid advisories from the Galveston Bay Foundation and state health officials.

City council plans waterline and sewer upgrades in goos e creek area
The council considers a 164780 waterline contract for 500 feet of pipe on the new westbound span of the Business 146 bridge over Goose Creek, plus a 6000000 change order to reconstruct sewer and drainage lines in Pinehurst. The 5.5 million project consolidates two former plans, with extra costs from driveways and rerouted sewers. The city also eyes Chambers County subdivision standards, tweaks to the Community Development Block Grant, and reallocation of funds from housing study and Christian Women’s Job Corps. Meeting set for 6 30 p.m. Monday at City Hall.
