Red Tide report for April 2008

A brief photo display of Red Tide, HAB, and pollution in Martin, St. Lucie and Palm Beach County.

The Harmful Algae Bloom exsists due to Agricultural runoff and Sewage pollution with a mux of Development waste.

We must Enforce the Federal Clean Water Act of 1972 today for Florida's future.

The drafters of the Clean Water Act foresaw failures in 1972.
The CWA allows citizens to sue the EPA for not doing their own
work or making sure the states do theirs. If the state agency
is failing to stop water pollution and permit violations,
citizens can file an 118a complaint letter to the commissioner
of DEP or EPA reporting the violation. The commissioner is
obligated to look into the lack of enforcement and report

Sign the Declaration of Reef Rights and the Enforce the Federal Clean Water Act petition online.

Red Algae off Jupiter Island

February 2008, I shot this photo of a Red Algae bloom at Coral Cove Park in Jupiter.

Click the photos, they are enlargeable.

The majority of the Reef is covered by what appears to be a Bleached Brain Coral.

Alot of pollution was drifting on top of the water, which may have caused me to be sick for 3 days.

I am also aware that the Florida DEP now accepts that Red-tide is due to run-off waters.
