‘Santa Monica Bay on the Mend’
- Share via
I was disturbed to read the article by Willard Bascom, “Santa Monica Bay On The Mend.” How wonderful if true!
But this is not at all possible when the Hyperion treatment plant at El Segundo is being asked to process four times the sewage it was built to handle!
Since Bascom represents the cities that do the polluting, it is not difficult to understand his attitude on the necessity of cleaning up the mess. I wonder, when was the last time he swam in Santa Monica Bay?
I love the ocean and have been swimming and surfing in it for more than 50 years! Five years ago I couldn’t stand the pollution in Santa Monica Bay anymore so now I drive the extra miles to clean Zuma Beach, north of Malibu.
