Let's give the credit where it is due! TMDL is NOT the reason for the success! Give credit to farmers and the increase in no-till and cover cropping that they have done!
Thanks for this great message. Good to get to read some positive information. While this does not transfer exactly to Santa Monica Bay because it is actually EXPOSED COAST not a protected bay, we do have small protected areas that can benefit greatly by similar controls and restrictions on nutrient rich effluent discharge. A big HOOT to all who contributed to build this positive and developing outcome!
Thank you!
