Next head to Gomorrah (in Strip) (M7:5) and go to the courtyard (M7F:6). Find Dazzle there (M7H:3) #1 and talk to her about White. Your next clue and a source of information is Trent Bascom (M45:1), who can be found on the [Sharecropper Farms] (MsB:20). Although he also doesn't know too much, he'll mention that White used to talk about the water treatment plant. Your next target is Lieutenant Romanowski (M45:2) #2.
