Baker Botts makes 100 Mil while Mexican American community gets around 52 Mil for clean-up...

[note: for a (primarily Mexican-American) community of 742,062 people (not counting Sunland Park N.M., or Cd Juarez), that comes to Asarco being willing to pay less than 74$ a head to make sure that each person in El Paso has clean air and water from 110 years of smelting....]

We know know that Asarco, Dupont and Englehard --- all caught by EPA and the US DOJ as sending illegal wastes to be burned here (the EPA still refused to release the invoices listed by ID numbers in the 1998 73 page US DOJ EPA secret document NYTimes 10/2006) were US DOE HIGH LEVEL RADIOACTIVE WASTE DISPOSAL CONTRACTORS. TO THIS DAY none of them have been held responsible through the bankruptcy court for ANY of the illegal waste disposal damage to our community and its water. It is very likely that they hid under the protection of the 1940's Atomic energy act (see book on rocky flats plutonium site by Karen Iversen).
