Heck, the Navy, too, is affected. The Navy, trains its SEALs in underwater activity in the area, and its elite forces have to swim in that commode, too, as do the Marines, further north in Oceanside. They don’t get to say ‘no’ owing to the sewage hazard.
Three, local lifeguards, who have to make rescues of errant swimmers, even with the beaches closed, have to make rescues, too, clean water or not?
Plenty of people are affected by the sewage, and the problem has been going on and on and on and on, making it a new normal.
According to both supervisors, for several decades “the Tijuana River has caused immense devastation to the coastlines and beaches of San Diego County, resulting in contamination and pollution.”
Extensive documentation by the U.S. International Boundary and Water Commission has found “that since 2018, more than 100 billion gallons of toxic effluent have entered the United States through the Tijuana River,” according to Lawson-Remer and Vargas.
They added that “an alarming 35 billion gallons have crossed the international border flowing north from another broken sewage treatment plant in Punta Bandera” since Dec. 28, 2022, which impacts the San Diego coastline during the summer.
Very symbolic.....
Dam the river just north of the border and let it back up into Mexico.
“Some 555 days after Tijuana spilled millions of gallons of raw sewage onto San Diego’s otherwise environmentally regulated beaches, the local Board of Supervisors, which is nearly all Democrat, has up and taken notice.”
Actually 555 days (1.5 years) is about how long it takes Congre$$ to take action on problems ... just before the next Congre$$ional election.
They send all their crap into the water with no treatment. Send tens of million of their poor and criminals here with no vetting.
And the NWO and Dems love it because it creates a ghetto and eternal votes financed on the backs of legal Americans.
They all should be in jail for life.
The way California’s big cities are headed, I’m almost
shocked it isn’t Mexico complaining... YET!
I always thought that there should be a moat that runs along with the border wall and filled with sewage. The Tijuana sewage could be re-directed into the moat. Pumps and locks would be needed, but it wouldn’t be too difficult.
The Hotel Del must be a mess...
Pity.
I participated in at least one of his campaigns.
