For years and years, they've checked the water quality over here in Malletts Bay VT. It actually startled them to fin ecoli levels up after heavy downpours. Their "funded" studies continued. One bright person suggested that they test the DNA and try to determine the direct cause of the levels. Every single waterfront resident knew exactly what they would find. Birds, racoons, etc... were the cause. Studies to be continued ad nausea.

Similar studies were done around the lake for years about rising phosphorous and other levels. They found the obvious, 75% of those levels were a direct result of farmland. The silence is deafening as always. Ducks and cows crap near and in the water. Guess what happens next?
