[00:00:00]A routine ditch walk exposed a hidden pipe leaking black liquid from a $1 billion factory.

[00:00:06]The pipe wasn't on any official map.

[00:00:09]Black industrial [music] discharge flowing straight into public waterways.

[00:00:15]Tesla's lithium refinery processes high toxicity [music] chemical waste daily.

[00:00:20]Texas regulators had never been notified about that discharge [music] point.

[00:00:25]And it gets worse.

[00:00:27]Lithium refining produces hydrofluoric acid byproducts. Comment what you'd do.

[00:00:31]That acid dissolves human tissue on contact. The drainage [music] district had to issue emergency contamination warnings downstream. Tesla called it a storm water pipe. Three other Texas refineries still haven't been inspected.

[00:00:45]Like this if your tap water scares you.
