A lot of landowners in and around Duncan, Oklahoma, claim that they have a water problem. Many are alleging that their private water wells now have dirty water polluted with unsafe levels of perchlorate, a chemical used in rocket fuel that they allege can be traced to a nearby facility owned by Halliburton Company and Halliburton Energy Services.
The landowners, residents or both near the vicinity of the facility have filed multiple lawsuits against the Houston oil field services and products giant. The plaintiffs allege that their land, surface and groundwater has been polluted by hazardous wastes and/or nuclear/radioactive waste treated at the facility, which is the former location of the Halliburton Industrial Services Division Missile Propellant Removal and Open Burning Operation. The Halliburton facility was also formerly used to process nuclear or radioactive waste from an out-of-state nuclear power plant.
