SPRING BRANCH, Texas - Neighbors in the Mystic Shores subdivision are concerned about a new housing development, which could dump treated wastewater into their backyards and flow down to Canyon Lake.

A coalition of property owners, community advocates and scientists recently came together to oppose a wastewater treatment plant permit renewal for Juniper Ranch, a subdivision under construction by Lennar Homes, located across the street from Mystic Shores.

The concerns mark the latest in a series of communities expressing concern about wastewater treatment plants that KSAT has been following.
