Black water released into Ojo de Liebre
Here is the link to the article in Spanish:
http://www.oem.com.mx/elsudcaliforniano/notas/n981548.htm
And here is a very sloppy translation:
A spill of black waters in the lagoon Eye of Hare, in Black Warrior is contaminating this important hábitat, a protected area, the most important in
the world for reproduction of gray whale, she/he is receiving 12 liters of black waters at the moment per second.
Luis Guadarrama Carrillo, subdirector of administration of the National Commission of the Water in the state confirmed that the lagoons of oxidation
of Black Warrior are full to it collides and it is pouring the dirty water that takes the drainage of the community directly to the lagoon of the area
salinera.
The gray whales don't still arrive by sight of Hare, not of massive form, but the contamination that she/he receives for 15 days it could affect the
cetaceans in more or smaller measure.
"It is a complicated problem, there what is needed is a work that should have carried out the system of drinkable water of Mulegé, but they didn't
apply the resources, now they will have to solve in the plant of treatment of Black Warrior", the official commented.
It seemed that the problem is being minimized, and according to what the own authorities inform, the spill of black waters that can constitute a crime
in which accept, the PROFEPA can intervene and to apply millionaire tickets to the city council, you could avoid with an investment of 200 thousand
pesos that the city council of Mulegé, didn't carry out.

bajajudy Thanks for posting the article. Whoooo - sad news and leaves me with a "what the heck can I do about this?" feeling of
helplessness. Question for Nomad land - is there something an individual can do to help this particular situation? I'm (geez, do I need to add this - probably, yes) looking for positive comments or suggestions.
I put the article through google translate - here is the google translate version:
Sewage spill pollutes the lagoon Eye Liebre

A sewage spill in Laguna Ojo de Liebre in Black Warrior is polluting this important habitat, a protected area, the largest in the world for playing
gray whale, is currently receiving 12 liters of wastewater per second.
Guadarrama Luis Carrillo, deputy director of administration of the National Water Commission in the state confirmed that the oxidation ponds are full
of Black Warrior to stop and is pouring the dirty water drain that leads directly to the lagoon area salt .
Not yet come to the gray whales in Ojo Liebre, not massively, but pollution has received 15 days may affect the whales to a greater or lesser extent.
"It's a complicated problem, there you need is a work that should have made the system for drinking water Mulegé but not applied the resources now
will have to resolve at the treatment of Black Warrior (Miette - "Water"?)," the official said.
It seems that the problem is being minimized, and as the authorities reported that the sewage spill, which may constitute a crime in accepting the
PROFEPA can millionaire fines and apply to the town hall could be avoided an investment of 200 pesos to the City of Mulegé not performed.
