I had the exact same reaction. And by the way it talks about “pristine clear waters”. Just a few years ago “they” were going apocalyptic over the zebra mussell as an invasive species until they discovered that it actually made the water clearer. Same thing with this...it’s actually CLEANING the garbage out of the water faster.
What they do to water intakes and outlets is really problematic. Ship engines, water plants, dams and everything in the water gets encrusted and then blocked by these damn invasive creatures.
