New research into #mercury pollution raises questions about why South Dakota is so lackadaisical in its approach to containing the spread of #ZebraMussels, writes Brad Johnson in new commentary:
Mercury research raises more questions about lax approach to zebra mussels • South Dakota Searchlight
Given the threats, one wonders why South Dakota is so lackadaisical in its approach to containing the spread of zebra mussels.

{Whistle blows}. FOUL! Still happens to the best of lakes, like #LakeMemphrémagog in Quebec.

Despite suboptimal Ca quality (mean 20 mg/L) Zebra Mussels still took hold. 7 years later…rather than 3 to 5. Got to consider water quality!

" #zebramussels are harming the #Colorado River. Our EXPLORE Act — signed into law last year — would help mitigate this crisis if it were fully implemented..."

From a post by rep #Neguse on FB asking for implementation of the bill. All the comments were toxic "what about me?" or "ha, ha."

Emails obtained by clean-water advocates show the state of South Dakota declined federal funding for decontamination stations to fight #ZebraMussels, which the advocates say is evidence the state isn’t taking the invasive threat seriously enough.
Water advocates say declined funding exposes insufficient zebra mussel effort; state disagrees • South Dakota Searchlight

a drawing by BoostCartoon depicts a wooden structurele, aka hotel, with various openings. A bullhead (small fish) is lying in front of the entrance and another is on the roof, viewing the scene from above. Small and big pebbles lie scattered around the hotel, to make the environment less muddy. Zebramussels have attached themselves to the roof of the hotel and to some pebbles. two children are feeding the protected bullheads after they have been released into the bullhead-hotel in an urban canal in Leiden, the Netherlands the bullhead hotel is depicted by an in situ photograph and schematic drawing in a text. Questions are asked about the design, function and other aspects about its goal. The questions are part of the CITO examination for 16-17 year old students, like a GCSE (or sophomore, GPA).
