HELP CHANGE HISTORY -- REPORT ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION OF LAND, AIR, WATER, WETLANDS and PEOPLE to National Response Center 1-800-424-8802 --

Help change history in the Nation's Oldest (European-founded) City of St. Augustine and in St. Johns County, Florida.

If you see a "developer," factory, government agency, or other organization or individual polluting, clearcutting, filling in wetlands, exposing workers and residents to toxic chemicals, destroying our homeland, then do something about it.

Call toll-free to report it to the National Response Center 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, every single day of the year. You will speak to a young Coast Guard petty officer (or civilian employee), part of an organization that works with federal and state law enforcement. The Coast Guard petty officer or civilian will take your information and give you a report number. Save that report number -- follow up on your report. Don't take no for an answer.

The only reason that our City of St. Augustine is about to be fined over for its "serious" violations and "lack of good faith" in dumping in our Old City Reservoir is that a call was made on February 17, 2006 to National Response Center 1-800-424-8802. This report (report number 788280) deprived government officials of plausible deniability.

If you see pollution, take action, take pictures, take the time to care and call National Response Center 1-800-424-8802.

One call to 1-800-424-8802 (and followups) was all it took to expose our City's serious, toxic illegal pollution of the Old City Reservoir, with pollution continuing even after criminal investigators arrived and Mayor GEORGE GARDNER promised "answers."


Don't expect government agencies guilty of desuetude (nonenforcement) to do thier jobs without your help. Don't expect developers, their lawyers or City or County officials to do their job without your help -- report pollution.

Don't "let George do it" -- you make the call. Don't expect the FDEP, SJRWMD, EPA, City, County or other government agency to enforce the law if you don't report pollution when you see it.

Be prepared to answer a few pertinent questions about what you saw, including date, time, location, owner, air temperature, wind speed/direction, weather conditions. You can give your name or remain anaonymous. The most important thing is to make the call and get the report number, so that you and others can follow up.

Don't hang up without getting a report number -- it's essential and it is the job of the National Response Center to take the information and convey it to those who can do something about it, promptly, courteously and efficiently.

No more coverups.


Call the National Response Center and help change history and protect our environment. You will be glad you did.

Our beautiful City of St. Augustine and St. Johns County are worthy preserving, protecting and defending from greed and corruption and prejudice (see below).
