Comments on: Now Facing ‘Exceptional’ Drought, Fort Bend And Texas May Feel More Heat In Years To Come http://www.fortbendnow.com/2009/07/17/39064 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 19:39:07 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: proactive1 http://www.fortbendnow.com/2009/07/17/39064/comment-page-1#comment-2504 proactive1 Tue, 21 Jul 2009 20:07:11 +0000 http://www.fortbendnow.com/?p=39064#comment-2504 That's a load of BS. Most of the contaminants that are found in Coastal waters are from storm water inlets in the Houston metro area. The wastewater treatment plants are actually an asset to most receiving streams as the dissolved oxygen levels are higher at the treatment plant outfalls than anywhere else in the streams. This is also where you find the most beneficial aquatic life. As far as "live bacteria" being discharged from these plants, all permits require disinfection via chlorine or ultra violet systems before discharge. The oxygen depleted dead zones that you refer to are from people pouring paint thinner, used motor oil, unwanted household chemicals, as well as street pollutants that pour into storm inlets after rainfall events.

Our dry lands effected by these major drought are more effective for fighting live bacteria tobe treated by our solar sun an filtered with ground dirts. Like in farms that need moisture to keep green with H2O. MUD are failing to clean or treat these polluted waste waters. Proactive1
