That's just the thing. The rivers and streams and lakes here in California are nowhere near as bad as The EPA wants people to believe.

Of course there's bacteria in lakes and rivers. That's where fish shit and pee.

Of course there are metals in rivers and streams. Some people refer to it as gold.

And nutrients? Nutrients are now a pollutant?

This is one seriesly hugh scam to get people to voluntarily separate themselves from their hard-earned (or soft-earned for millions of Californians) money.

Well, I guess that's better than the alternative.

We can separate ourselves from our money voluntarily or they will think of ways to make us separate ourselves from our money.

Oh the EPA has a great chance to turn California into the utopian Fascist state they so dream of. Which BTW really po’s me. I grew up in California and loved every minute. Would not live there today.
I found my home in 85.

I was really being sarcastic about the issue. This is nothing more than a political power play that Jerry Brown will welcome.

Sterilize all the rivers?= kills all the fish!
