Sewer Problems Urgently Need Fix
Re “Sewer Systems Across O.C. Need Help, Group Reports” (Oct. 11):
The Surfrider Foundation has performed another public service by quantifying the obvious; namely, the decentralized, fragmented, local approach to planning and maintaining our water is beyond the professional abilities of the local agencies.
The article illustrates the problem. Six organizations were referenced for their expertise and comment, and that count does not include the Surfrider Foundation and the 34 separate local agencies they studied. We need one regional organization with the authority and responsibility to solve our serious problem, and we need a sense of urgency.
We need someone like Erin Brockovich to get the public to realize we have the proverbial elephant in our homes and he is not house broken!
