We, the undersigned residents and supporters of Ingram, Texas, urgently call on county and state officials to drain Ingram Lake to:
• Remove human remains
• Eliminate hazardous materials
• Clean up debris, including vehicles and travel trailers
Since the devastating floods on July 4th, our community has grown increasingly concerned about the condition of our lake. Divers have confirmed that the lakebed contains dangerous materials that pose serious health and environmental risks. The only effective way to restore the lake is to drain it. This process has been done before and is not costly.
Currently, there is a closed valve acting as a stopper. Once removed, the water will flow out, allowing for safe cleanup and restoration. Draining the lake will make it usable, safe, and beautiful once again for our community and future generations.
By signing below, you show your support for this urgent action and help demonstrate to decision-makers that our community is united and committed to restoring Ingram Lake.
