Water decontamination project moves to second phase in Brownfield
In Brownfield a phased water decontamination project advances after initial monitoring. Daniel B Stephens and Associates of Lubbock along with Harrison and Cooper Environmental Drilling of Wolfforth conduct extraction of contaminants from wells and surrounding soil at Webb Street and 8th Street site across from King Motor Co. Local staff geologist Steve Killingsworth notes phase two involves direct recovery of contaminated water and soil while assessing risk to nearby domestic wells. Harrison adds the process involves multi-step drilling and pipe installation to access the contaminated zone.

Weevil survival rate concerns entomologist
Entomologist Phillip Kidd reports boll weevil survival in Terry and Yoakum counties remains around 20 percent despite declines since November. Cages across burned and unburned CRP land show 0.20 and 0.43 percent survival, with brush shinnery oak areas higher at about five percent. Kidd notes dry conditions have helped reduce survival, though the 20 percent level is still considered high and suggests many weevils remain active this season.
