The excessive amount of nitrogen from the fertilizers used by the agricultural industry is causing algae blooms which can eventually lead to eutrophication. This can cause the Bay to be unhealthy. We are striving to protect the bay by petitioning to make regulations regarding limits on fertilizers stricter.

The water looks awful lately. Used to be able to swim here with the kids but now it's just green sludge. Needs to change.
