Water supplier agrees
to pay $1,052 penalty
By Peggy Heinkel-Wolfe
Staff Writer
pheinkel-wolfe @ dentonrc. com
The water supplier for a
small neighborhood between
Oak Point and little Elm faced
enforcement action from state
environmental officials Wednes-
day.
Community Water Supply the
operator of a small public water
system for the Rocky Point com-
munity has agreed to pay a $1,052
penalty in installments and take
corrective action, part of an
agreed order approved by the
Texas Commission on Environ-
mental Quality during its regular
meeting in Austin.
In July 2013, state inspectors
cited the water supplier for six
violations of state rules related to
failing to test for contaminants
— including the E. coli bacteria,
nitrates, and certain minerals,
metals, chemicals and volatile
organics — and mailing the re-
sults to the state. The water sup-
plier was also cited for failing to
mail its annual consumer confi-
dence report to its customers, a
federal requirement. The agreed
order included a number of cor-
rective steps that the water sup-
plier must take, some within the
next 10 to 30 days and others
within the next six weeks to six
months, according to state re-
cords.

Bonnie Frame, of Mesquite-
based Community Water Sup-
ply, said even though the viola-
tions were written for tests that
weren’t done, they were.
“The lab just didn’t mail
them,” Frame said. “I’ve had to
show them, prove to them, that
it’s all been done.”
In all, commissioners ap-
proved $386,735 in penalties
against 83 regulated entities in
Austin on Wednesday.

Comcast strikes deal to
buy Time Warner Cable
By Ryan Nakashima
AP Business Writer
LOS ANGELES - With a
single behemoth purchase,
Comcast is creating a dominant
force in American entertain-
ment and presenting federal
regulators with an equally out-
sized quandary: How should
they handle a conglomerate that
promises to improve cable TV
and Internet service to millions
of homes but also consolidates
unprecedented control of what
viewers watch and download?
Comcast, which was already
the nation’s No. 1 pay TV and
Internet provider, says its $45.2
billion purchase of Time Warner
Cable will provide faster, more
reliable service to more custom-
ers and save money on TV pro-
gramming costs. If the acquisi-
tion is approved, Comcast will
serve some 30 million pay TV
customers and 32 million Inter-
net subscribers.
But industry watchdogs say
the deal will give the company
too much power and ultimately
raise the price of high-speed
connections.
“How much power over con-
tent do we want a single compa-
ny to have?” said Bert Foer, pres-
ident of the American Antitrust
Institute, a Washington-based
consumer-interest group.
The all-stock deal approved
by the boards of both companies
trumps a proposal from Charter
Communications to buy Time
Warner Cable for about $38 bil-
lion. It also represents another
giant expansion following Corn-
cast’s $30 billion purchase of
NBCUniversal, operator of net-
works like NBC, Bravo and
USA, which was completed last
March.
Comcast says it will continue
to operate under conditions the
government imposed when it
approved that transaction, in-
cluding a requirement that it
provide standalone Internet ser-
vice without tying it to a pay TV
package, make programming
available without discrimina-
tion to other providers, and treat
all Internet traffic the same, even
if it is for video competitors such
as Netflix.
However, those conditions
expire in 2018, and Comcast
CEO Brian Roberts was not pre-
pared to voluntarily extend
those into the future in a confer-
ence call with journalists.
CLARIFICATION
On Page 1A Thursday in an
article about the Denton school
district attendance zones for the
2014-15 school year, the atten-
dance boundary for E.R Rayzor
Elementary School should have
included Lantana’s Laurel, Da-
kota and Sandlin neighbor-
hoods. The neighborhoods were
inadvertently omitted from de-
tails provided by the school dis-
trict.
