Please co-sponsor the HB897: Clean Oceans Act

Dear [ Decision Maker ],

As a resident of Florida and a beachgoer, I am concerned with the water quality along the coast. I know that excess nitrogen in the surf zone can come from many non-point sources, but the one that you can control is the sewage dumped from the gambling boats.

Please co-sponsor the HB897 – The Clean Oceans Act. You have the support of the local community, because they know how important a clean beach is to the economy. You know the value of protecting Florida’s water resources. Stop the gambling boats from dumping their sewage right off our coastline. Our ocean is not a toilet, and dilution is not the solution.

Sincerely,
[Your name]
