Subject: [EXTERNAL] Jordan Lake Pollution in NC
Dear U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Wilmington District Mr. Justin Bashaw,
I am writing to 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. I have a lot of family that drinks that water, and the government of this State is not looking out for our
interests; or our health.
As you know, Jordan Lake is plagued by nitrogen and phosphorus 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.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Jason Dittmer
