Home My WebLink AboutTracy FeldmanWainwright, David From: Tracy Feldman <tracysfeldman @yahoo.com> Sent: Tuesday, March 25, 2014 9:50 PM To: Bashaw, Justin P SAW Subject: [EXTERNAL] Please help clean Jordan Lake Dear U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Wilmington District Mr. Justin Bashaw, I am an ecologist and educator 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. This is unacceptable! 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, Tracy Feldman 2117 Strebor Street Durham, NC 27705
