A barrier collapsed at a waste water facility earlier this week. According to KETK, the facility holds wastewater with leftover grease and animal by-products. Residents who live near the plant have been complaining about its smell. The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality has been investigating the stench for weeks, and the city of Henderson is also investigating the contaminated water.
