And continued kudos for Chris Jones' book, "The Swine Republic: Struggles with the Truth About Agriculture and Water Quality," which has helped Iowans start to focus on the issue.
Thank you Larry and all for your persistence. Hopefully people are waking up and will join the fight for clean water, healthy soil and healthy people. To be held captive by industrial agri-business is undemocratic and it’s killing us.
Today’s DMRegister article on the DNR arm in arm with the Farm Bureau and Fertilizer interests show the steep climb for clean water folks. Gonna be a long slog unfortunately

Where again did you see that article, Scott? I can't seem to find it in either e-newspaper or online.
Hope it works
Check out this article from Des Moines Register:
Should Des Moines, Raccoon, other Iowa rivers be on impaired list? DNR objects to EPA move

That did it! Thanks, Scott!
I opened my register app and searched DNR this time and it came up
is there a way you can share it, Scott? I'm not having any luck. Sorry to be such a Luddite!
I just tried to post it on Substack
Thankful for the great turnout of folks who helped pushed this forward one more step. Keep it up!
Such good news coming out of NE Iowa! So glad Chris Jones tapped such a wealth of activism there. Paul Johnson would be proud.
