A Texas man that sent out his drone plane hoping to take some eye-catching
shots of the Dallas suburbs caught just that - except not in the way he
anticipated. What he discovered turned out to be an environmental hazard.
His pictures showed a bright, red pigment in a creek behind a 99-year-old
meat packing plant. The red pigment, to his shock and surprise, was pig
blood.
Yikes!
Soon after handing his pictures over to the authorities, the Columbia
Packing Company was served with a search warrant by the Texas Environmental
Task Force. An underground pipe located behind the slaughterhouse was
investigated and was not found to be connected to any waste water system. It
was later tested by authorities which found a substantial amount of pig
blood. The creek runs into Trinity River where a lot of kayackers and nature
lovers have been making it a very popular place to frequent. Taken aback by
the allegations that were exalted last week the company was not aware of any
solicitude.
However when contacted by government officials they complied in answering
any questions on the matter. The Columbia Packing Co. were surprised at the
allegations and refuted any deliberate wrong doing. This hasnʼt, however,
prompted the halt of production at the slaughterhouse nor has any immediate
action been taken by Columbia Packing to address the underground pipe in
question.
