Dallas Water Utilities lost so much city water from a leak that it caused a swamp in a forest that activists said would normally be dry.
His friend Alexander Neal recorded a TikTok video Sunday of his kayak trip over what he called Dallas’s Blue Hole.“It is clear water. It’s got a little smell of chlorine to it,” he said.
“It is ironic. You should be able to practice what you preach, especially in the water world,” Neal said. He said the city should have been able to monitor water production and compare it with delivery to know there was a leak and get it fixed without causing a swamp. Sandifer said the city deserves credit now for finally confirming the problem and announcing repair plans.
