Subject: [EXTERNAL] Say no to solarbees, yes to serious Jordan Lake cleanup efforts
Dear U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Wilmington District Mr. Justin Bashaw,
Please say no to SolarBees on Jordan Lake and yes to proven, effective solutions to clean up all of the pollution issues,
not just to mask a single problem. North Carolina needs to move forward with the promised controls of runoff from new
and existing development, and upgrades to upstream wastewater treatment plants. The $1.65 million state earmark
that funded the SolarBee project created a single- source, no -bid contract that funnels money to the company that
makes the mixers. This means no competition and no serious evaluation of whether this technology will work on Jordan
Lake. It's just another way for lawmakers to delay real pollution controls on this beautiful lake.
I urge you to please oppose the use of SolarBees on Jordan Lake.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
amy brennan
