[EXTERNAL] Jordan lake clean up
Dear U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Wilmington District Mr. Justin Bashaw,
I urge you to please oppose the use of SolarBees on Jordan Lake. The federal Clean Water Act requires that pollution be
treated at the source of the problem, not downstream in public waters. By employing floating mixers (known as
SolarBees) downstream in Jordan Lake the state is not complying with federal law. This is unacceptable!
Jordan Lake is plagued with pollution from upstream sources and these unproven floating mixers do not treat that.
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. Do the right thing and clean up the problem at the source, instead of
trying band aid measures!
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Jan Beech
