NATIONAL RESPONSE CENTER REPORT No. 918096




In St. Augustine, Florida today, there was a massive fish kill of hundreds of fish in the San Sebastian River in the vicinity of Mile Marker 37. The current and wind were flowing from the south (from the general direction of the City's formerly leaking sewage pipelines and the City's sewage treatment plant, as well as the now-abandoned Luhrs shipbuilding plant, among other large facilities).

The fish kill has been reported to the National Response Center, EPA, Florida Department of Environmental Protection and St. Augustine Record.

It is not currently known what killed the fish.

It's time for polluters to be prosecuted, instead of mollycoddled.

What do you reckon?
