Our Water Is Contaminated
In our case, the problem is entirely man made. Caused by high concentrations of phosphorous and nitrogen from over fertilized farm fields, livestock farms, laundry soap, golf courses, sewage treatment plants, and residential yards. The Maumee River watershed is large and it all drains right into the shallow end of Lake Erie. It was just a matter of time till this would happen. Every spring the warnings come out and every year there ignored We've just been lucky so far.
