After deploying one of the world’s most inefficient “transit systems” in Las Vegas, Elon Musk’s Boring Company has a gift for the local populace: a large waterfeature in the form of a pond, free of charge.
There’s just one little hitch, namely, that Elon Musk’s company has been using the pond to illegal dump its fluid waste, giving it a noxious green hue.
“[The Boring Company’s] brazen refusal to stop its illicit discharges after being contact in the act, coupled with [The Boring Company’s] representative’s false statements to district inspector, proves [The Boring Company’s] activities to be knowing and intentional,” the county lawsuit reads.
Prior reporting shows that Boring Company workers and local firefighters alike have suffered a high number of chemical burns related to accelerant fluid used in the massive drills.
