Yes please, we have to save the IMAGE!!! Not worry about stopping the untreated wastewater discharge into the bay. Not prosecuting those responsible for illegal sewage discharge. Not hold the local environment/public health officials responsible for failing to do their jobs. Please, quick, somebody write me a memo. Let's form a committee. Let's go on another inspection. Then get me another update. How many ways can you say... hand job... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
