Texas Waterways Are Too Polluted

RECEIVED Mon., June 21, 2010

Dear Editor,
    Does anyone know just how polluted Texas waterways are? Take a look at this link from Texas Parks and Wildlife (www.tpwd.state.tx.us/publications/annual/fish/consumption_bans). Even the Gulf Coast is so polluted they are recommending not eating the larger fish, and this was before the BP spill. How did it get this bad?
Thanks,
Delwin Goss
