Dear Editor:

Re: Clean Water Not a Commodity to be Bottled, July 29 Mailbox.

(Letter-writer) Bill Barrie wants to start charging Nestle higher fees for water. What happens to all the other high-volume users? Other large users such as concrete companies, greenhouses and yes, the municipalities themselves?

Why would Nestle be treated any differently than a farmer, or other commercial user? Much fuss about nothing. Water is a shared resource used by many and is not sold in B.C.
