Ed, how quickly we forget. The issue for OPA was not the quality of the effluent to be used to irrigate the OPA golf course, the issue was more of what accepting the County's proposal to do so meant in terms of who would then exercise control over the land area of the golf course.
One of those "unintended consequences" I mentioned recently. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: I am, like you, a great advocate of using effluent spray irrigation. Still, it comes with limitations as to purity of the plant discharge. Less so in woods; more so on areas that people traverse. You are correct about the quality of our plant's effluent or at least it was the last I heard. How do you know about the quality of Riddle Farms' discharge and is your information current? If, as I've heard, Riddle is or has been trucking waste to our plant, why is that? Is their's maxed out? I guess so...or they've been having water purity problems or even both since one often breeds the other. Remember that the quality of our discharge was affected by an errant rake. Marty is asking a valid question; Is it possible that now, while we are under some water restrictions, that Riddle is using some of our clean water to allow their golf course irrigation. So you assume the effluent sprayed on their golf course is pure enough to be sprayed on areas that people walk on. And without mixing with clean water from an acquifer. I'd be interested in knowing your current source of that information. I'd also be interested to know why you believe that an email from an individual OP resident asking the questions is a better vehicle than demanding that the OP board of directors' ask those questions forthwith. |
