WE NEED YOUR HELP - Selenium Standard Process Nearing the end |
|
It is time to step up and voice your opinion on pollution levels in GSL! The Utah Division of Water Quality will hold a meeting to hear your input on Selenium on the evening of 20 May from 6-8:30 pm. So far, it looks as if the state will recommend level of Selenium that could translate into a dire future for all birds who nest, rest and replenish at Great Salt Lake.
This is such a complex issue, but an important precedent is being made right now. We must show our support in the process. Click below to read recent news coverage and download a recommendation by Joe Skorupa of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
