Toledo Area Tap Water Deemed Safe To Drink...Until Next Time. City Releases Crisis Report
Lorie Kramer
Toledo Mayor D. Michael Collins announced that a ban of consumption of the city’s water, in effect since Sat. , Aug. 2, has been lifted. Results of tests showed non-detectable levels of the microcystin toxin.
The Toledo Blade reported “The level in two samples of water taken by city employees was found to be approaching 1.0 ppb in one of them and just over 1.0 ppb in the other, Mr. Collins said. While there is no state or federally mandated limit for microcystin, the potentially deadly toxin in a harmful form of blue-green algae known as microcystis, the World Health Organization has recommended that the drinking water concentration be kept at 1.0 ppb or less.
The latest tests performed by the Ohio EPA and the U.S. EPA had come back back negative, although those tests were performed differently.”
The City of Toledo also released a 72 page report on the water crisis that can be found here

Here’s the thing..this is nothing new. This is just the worst in a series of toxic algae bloom events affecting Lake Erie for decades. This has been going on for years, and years, and years. This is because there has been no intervention, it just keeps getting worse each year. Just more reports on studies, and graphs and yada, yada, yada.
Don’t believe me? Check it out…I’ll just do a quick story grab, just one per year the last few years… 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009,2008, 2007
Oh heck, now that this year’s panic is over, I’ll stop for now. This needs further explanation in a separate piece. This is the eutrophication of Lake Erie and it has been known since the 60′s. It has been accelerated by crap “we humans” do. Because apparently, that’s how we roll. I’ll prepare something and get it up for further explanation in the next couple days, depending on available time.
Here, have a shot from LANDSAT from 2003 as a parting gift.
