EPA sadly never implemented the Clean Water Act, due to an incorrect applied pollution test. This caused EPA to ignore all the pollution caused by nitrogenous (urine and protein) waste, while this waste like fecal waste exerts an oxygen demand, but also is a fertilizer for alga and aquatic plants, eventually causing the dead zones and destruction of coral reefs. Fr more information visit http://www.petermaier.net and read the description of the BOD test in the Technical PDF section.
Comment by Peter Maier May 3, 2008 @ 5:33 pmEPA acknowledged the problems with this test in 1984, but in stead of correcting the test t allowed an alternative test which now officially allows open waters to be used as urinals.
Since we still can not evaluate the real performances of sewage treatment plants and have no idea what their effluent waste loadings are on receiving waters bodies, we keep spinning our wheel in controlling water pollution.
