NATIONAL RESPONSE CENTER REPORT NO. 890009

Yet another pollution event reported today in Lincolnville, the African-American community founded by freed slaves in 1866. There was an oily sheen in the water and apparent feces in the water. It's been reported to the National Response Center.

Anyone wanting to report pollution can call 1-800-424-8802. Get a report number and don't take no for an answer.

St. Augustine City MANAGER WILLIAM B. HARRISS' apologist, amenuensis, designated javelin-catcher and perennial hey-boy (Chief Operations Office JOHN REGAN) actually stigmatized us for calling the National Response Center, speaking at a City Commission meeting.

We've requested that samples this time be analyzed by the EPA's SESD laboratory in Athens, Georgia (and not by the City of St. Augustine, which happened the last time).

Like any good diplomats, we're not taking "no" as if it were an answer.

Nor will we accept lies, dupery and flummery from the City of St. Augustine.

Nor are we going to let City of St. Augustine coverup artists tell us that the "Old City Reservoir" is just a "borrow pit," or that what was once a sewer pipe, now shredded and missing 120 feet of length is still a "pipe."



SHREDDED "PIPE" w/ JOHN REGAN, CITY OF ST. AUGUSTINE CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER
OUR CITY OF ST. AUGUSTINE STILL CALLED IT A "PIPE" (120 feet missing),dumping semi-treated freshwater sewage effluent into our saltwater marsh at the South end of Lincolnville


COLLANDER

Does the City of St. Augustine know the difference between a pipe and a collander? If you can see daylight, does it cease being a pipe and become a collander?
