    Toxic Rocket Fuel Chemical In Drinking Water Can Stay Says Government 230908drinking water

    White House and Pentagon distort the science to protect themselves and their corporate defense contractors from liability on water contamination

    Steve Watson

    Tuesday, Sept 23, 2008

    The Environmental Protection Agency says there is no need to act on the fact that a toxic rocket fuel ingredient, which has been proven to lead to a loss of IQ and an increase in behavioral and perception problems, has long been present in drinking water across the U.S.

    In a remarkable reversal of it’s position, the EPA, has ditched six years of effort into persuading the government that perchlorate contamination poses a serious risk to the public and should be regulated.

    Perchlorate, has been found in at least 395 sites in 35 states at levels high enough to interfere with thyroid function and pose developmental health risks, particularly for babies and fetuses, reports AP. The toxic chemical has also been found in lettuce and other foods.

    It is used by defense and aerospace contractors in conjunction with the Pentagon in rockets and missiles.

    Blogger Rick Attig at the Oregonian succinctly explains why the EPA has suddenly decided to back down and drop it’s efforts to address perchlorate contamination:

    It’s obvious what’s going on here. The administration wants nothing to do with a cleanup that could cost hundreds of millions of dollars or more. Nor does the Pentagon want to expose its friendly defense contractors to the costs of cleaning up the contamination they are responsible for leaving behind to seep into drinking water in at least 35 states and the District of Columbia.

    Attig also points out that the Bush administration and the Pentagon are preparing to fix the science to justify not regulating perchlorate by setting the maximum contamination level at 15 times the figure the EPA suggested in 2002. 

    (Article continues below)

     

    The revelations first appeared in a Washington Post report Sunday, after the paper received a near final EPA “preliminary regulatory determination” document.

    That document revealed that the government opted not to use a National Academy of Science formula for determining safe levels of perchlorate in drinking water, the model preferred by the nation’s top scientists, instead opting to use a computer model developed by the Chemical Industry Institute of Toxicology.

    No conflict of interest there then.

    The report also revealed that the White House deleted references to scientific studies which highlighted the link between perchlorate’s impact on thyroid function and an irreversible loss of IQ and perception in young people from babies to those in the 20s.

    The document estimates that up to 16.6 million Americans are exposed to perchlorate at a level many scientists consider unsafe; independent researchers, using federal and state data, put the number at 20 million to 40 million.

    Robert Zoeller, a University of Massachusetts professor who specializes in thyroid hormone and brain development, told reporters that the government amendments to the EPA proposal “have distorted the science to such an extent that they can justify not regulating” the toxic chemical.

    “Infants and children will continue to be damaged, and that damage is significant.” Zoeller said.

    Perchlorate is just one toxic horror readily found in the drinking water of people all over America. We have previously reported on studies that have found that numerous pharmaceutical drugs, from antidepressants like prozac to sex hormones, currently contaminate the water supplies of millions.

    In addition millions more are being being mass-medicated against their will in many water districts by way of sodium fluoride, which is classed as a poison, being added to water supplies without their consent. The latest scientific reports have pointed to strong evidence of the waste chemical’s link to disorders affecting teeth, bones, the brain and the thyroid gland, as well as lowering IQ.

    Despite these facts, the government continues to aim to have 75% of American water fluoridated by 2010.

    It is now clearly the responsibility of people everywhere to lobby representatives at the state and local levels to implement their own drinking water regulations in response to the combination of negligence, cronyism and downright criminal actions of the federal government on this matter.

    Several states have already acted on their own. In 2007, California adopted a drinking water standard of 6 parts per billion for perchlorate, while Massachusetts has set a drinking water standard of 2 parts per billion. Meanwhile other towns and cities across the country have voted to remove fluoride from their water.

    Given that states like Pennsylvania have passed laws making it illegal to remove fluoride from a community’s drinking water supply once such fluoridation is started, It is essential that action is taken on this matter before others follow suit.

      where can i found the list of those 395 sites in 35 states that have levels high enough to interfere with thyroid function and pose developmental health risks.
      thanks

      More corruption:
      Pay a few “scientists” to “change the science” and say it’s ok. It never ends.

      Drink only purified water, NEVER from your tap. We can no longer trust our lives to bureaucrats that could care less about us pee-ons!

      Why do you put rocket fuel in the title? It’s like saying they dump rocket fuel in the water! If hydrazine was present that could be another thing but…

      Perchlorates are formed from purification of water by chlorination. The dirtiest the water, the more chlorine they have to inject and the more perchlorates will be formed. The only other way to kill pathogenes in the water is by ozonation.

      In any case, charcoal filters will remove the perchlorates and other organic derivatives.

      That INCLUDES all the truthers, who continue to give the U.S. Government their income and sit at home with their comfy internet and do nothing, allowing it all to happen.

      I agree. There’s carbon in rocket fuel and carbon in our bodies. Does that mean rocket fuel is in our bodies?

      Typically, PrisonPlanet is using junk science, illogical reasoning, fearmongering and outright fraud to stir their constituency into a hate frenzy. And also typically, truthers are too stupid and drunk on Alex Jones Kool-Aid to think with any discretion on the matter.

      JJKLK. Did you miss the facts in the article? “Perchlorate, has been found in at least 395 sites in 35 states at levels high enough to interfere with thyroid function and pose developmental health risks, particularly for babies and fetuses”. Instead of talking about the facts in the article you want to show your hate for alex jones. you are to stupid for the truth.

      EPA against limiting rocket fuel ingredient in water http://edition.cnn.com/2008/HE.....index.html

      What a bunch of liars!! CNN is for putting rocket fuel in the title!!. Sir, you are an idiot!.

    11. Divided we fall Says:

      Once again. White House and Pentagon distort science, and or law to protect themselves and their corporate defense contractors.

      Our government proves it is incapable of anything above taking our hard earned money, with NO representation of the working class in Washington, isnt Taxation withiut representation Tyranny? Or is that all just smoke & sunshine up our collective asses?

      If we want REAL change we must be rid of this false “Two party” system Which is really just ONE party, the Elite. That doesnt include any of US does it? We wont be able to do what is right until we as an entire nation, get up off our asses, turn off CNN, and march on Washington.

      Hey, if you can,…listen to Alex’s show today.

      At the risk of sounding kooky, we have the power to CHANGE the tide.
      What one gives their attention too, LIVES. Remove the attention and it withers away.

      Individually and as a group, let’s….surround these people who are planning our demise, our brothers and sisters, hmm who threw away conscience eons ago.

      Visualize light, life and love surrounding them,be consistent about it and live now….they will be disarmed. The few will save the many :) and don’t discard our family from other planets, who are here to help. Sounds simplistic ? I am sure it is one of the most powerful actions to be taken NOW.
      Try it, at least nuh?
      The Illumati/NWO’s last stand..they know it is all over. The changing of the tide is here, a new cycle.

      Can I ask a favor, take a good look and listen to what Obama is saying at this time…I mean really pay attention. I intend to do the same.

    15. Bill Says:

      JJKLK,
      Why does Steve Watson refer to perchlorate as a “Rocket Fuel Chemical”? Well, most perchlorate manufactured in the U.S. is used as an ingredient in solid fuel for rockets… this is why it is referred to as a “Rocket Fuel Chemical”. Understand? I feel like my IQ’s dropped 10 points just having to explain that to you.

    16. Tim Says:

      Poisoned milk from China; America piosons drinking water. See I told you we were better than China. Your stupid enough to let it happen and it will happen. All governments are capable of doing this since the beginning of govenments. I thought a constitution was what stopped this kind of corruption regaurdless of what type of government is in charge. Spreading Democracy without a constitution like ours is just imperialism to me. Govenment must be govened by the people!

    17. JJKLK Says:

      Andre;

      I wasn’t debating the facts of the article, only how they were presented by PrisonPlanet. ;) I think you are stupid to Alex Jones’ version of the “truth.” :)

      Dropped 10 points to 20.

      Europe banned fluoride.

      Ask your congressmen, why Europeans still have their teeth ?

      Ask them if gov’t could save some flouride for nerve gas labs that truely need this valuable element.

      Ask if fluoride was used in water before Nazi’s dosed concetration camps with this, maybe we owe our healthy teeth to Hitler ?

      When are you guys also going to stop eating Microwaved TV dinners It is doing you all eating anything microwable serious serious damage, yet the zombies continue chomping down the toxic waste formed from any edible thing put in microwave ovens.In short millions and millions of familes, if not all US families continue to slowly mutate their genes with the best NWO weapon the bought themselves. Yup! they are definitely going to reduce the population or at the very least strip you of your assets from medical bills for until you croak and the funeral director takes the left over before planting you as plant manure.Wake UP DAMMIT!

      My friends literally drink rain water now.

      I want to get an atmospheric water generator myself, but cannot yet afford it.

      Been thinking of just using a dehumidifier/filter combo for untainted water.

      Otherwise, I hear spring water is safe.

    27. arrcher Says:

      I moved from Rialto,California 2 years ago. when i bought a new house out in San Bernardino county the building contractor told my wife that the water had a lot of “sediment” in it little did we know that 3 years later when we were selling our house that the city of Rialto sent a notice in the mail about perchlorate contamination in the city’s wells and that they have built this huge water purification facility north of the city. Hell I had no idea that there was contamination besides the stained shower glass and water spots on my car after washing it and the paint coming off. apparently the wells have been contaminated since the 1940’s when goodyear,black & decker were making bombs and artillery shells, white phosphorus supplying the surrounds air force bases and then dumping the crap in unlined pits ruining the water table in the surrounding cities. follow the link below in case you want to read more:

      Hey, I have an offbeat idea, make the government tell us the whole truth and nothing but the truth or stick all their sorry azzes in prison for life. All they do is lie, Bush lies,Paulson has a long relationship with liars being from Nixon’s people and we are supposed to bail everyone out, I hope the FBI gets enough crooks to send half of Wall Street to prison!

      @ 21 europe has banned fluoride ? my local water company severn trent in england wants to introduce it into our water as we speak fucking hell !!!!

    30. england expects Says:

      so why not put it on then

    31. england expects Says:

      how dare i tell the truth you muppet

    32. DrumDr Says:

      perhaps this is what the chemtrails over my house are for

    33. BGko Says:

      Just two days ago, my buddy was driving by the one of the water reservoirs for LA County, (the one off the 5, take the Roxford exit), and he saw a big truck with the toxic Jolly Roger symbols and the hazardous materials stickers all over it. He pulled up close to it at a red light and saw it was labeled “Sodium Fluoride”. Then the light turned green and it turned onto the road leading to the reservoir.
      No doubt it was going to poison our water supply to create more disease and less intelligent thought.

      I wish my government was American and Democratic, because the swine we have now disgust me.

    34. BGko Says:

      I now only buy distilled water. I understand it to be fluoride free. Is this correct?

      Perchlorate is also in iceberg lettuce.

      I prefer a BOT – Bacon, Onion & Tomato…or if they have romaine lettuce.

    37. Stephen Reeves Says:

      As far as I know, distilled water should not have any fluoride/fluorine in it. However, I have heard rumors of a toxic chemical that “seeps” out of plastic containers into the water. I have also heard that it is best to distill your own water or drink collected rain water. I’m not sure if it is safe to drink acid rain, so don’t try it.

    38. Christar Says:

      Somebody please list some safe alternative ways to drink water please.

    39. researchALLwars Says:

      do NOT drink distilled or Reverse Osmosis water unless you can add all of the important minerals that are in clean tapwater.

      I haven’t figured out what to do yet- but I’ve read many reports telling how not ingesting essential minerals (lets exclude flouride or perchlorate, jesus) is quite detrimental over any length of time.

      They say distilled or RO is great for indiscriminately “flushing” things from your cells/body- toxins AND beneficial minerals alike.

      DAMNIT!

      RO & Distilled are great if we add small microns of iron, copper, carbon, magnesium and sodium bicarbonate. They will prevent us robbing minerals that our bodies need for electrochemical nerve responses and hormone output. Sucks to think that the end of life as we know it will come to an abrupt end.
