Subject: [EXTERNAL] Is Solar Bee really good for Jordan lake? Data suggests not.
Dear U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Wilmington District Mr. Justin Bashaw,
I am writing to you today to oppose the use of SolarBees on Jordan Lake. There is no evidence that these floating mixers
will clean up the pollution. Jordan Lake is plagued by nitrogen and phosphorus pollution from upstream sources and
these mixers do not treat that type of pollution. When these mixers fail to do their job, the condition of Jordan Lake will
be worse than ever.
Please oppose the use of SolarBees on Jordan Lake.
For more information and some interesting discussion, see
