Subject: [EXTERNAL] Circulators Jordan Lake
Regarding installation of circulators in Jordan Lake to allegedly deal with algae growth.
1) Total waste of valuable time and money.
2) Need to address source of algae growth problem and quit putting off fixing upstream issues.
3) Forestalling addressing actual source of algae growth is obviously in interests of all parties loading nutrients
upstream, including their powerful political allies, and not in interests of the health of Lake Jordan and its beneficiaries.
4) Political boondoggle of giant proportions.
S) Circulators will constitute navigational hazards.
6) Circulators are a useless and 'feel -good' band aid.
7) Bidding and award process smells to high Heaven.
8) This entire operation has not one single positive attribute, other than to benefit politicians, circulator company, and
those upstream causing the algae problem.
