A million people visit the lake each year to camp, swim, boat, paddle or fish and these floating mixers pose a real threat. The mixers sit low in the water and could be easily missed by boaters, water skiers and jet skiers. There is also no evidence that these mixers will work to clean up the pollution in this popular recreational destination. The public relies on the best scientific information and the most reliable sources of that information to guide them in their decisions. That same public expects their representatives to do the same in making decisions that will affect hundreds of thousands of people. Remembering that we have to rely on water from Jordan Lake for drinking and daily use, please be sure that our needs for clean water are respected and met. No untried shortcuts, please. We're counting on you, and so are our children. Thank you. Sincerely, Sonja Stahlhut 600 Audubon Lake Drive #5Al2 Durham, NC 27713
