Report Details

I want to call atention to effluent,11,000,000 gallons daily, from the mill 1/3 mile off nye beach. now is the opportunity to refuse this heavy pollution(1 ton of lead a year to start with). City hall does not have to sign the contract on the table. there is a task force now, but no public awareness or attention. once it is signed, it will be impossible for us to get that power back.

Concerns

Apparent violations: big creek left a funky ochre foam at the tide line and in the surf. there is another creek futher north,110meters shy of the rock, which has been funky too. i suspect there are lots of leaky pipes, especially, consistently below the big hotels on eliz.
