Those who have the power constantly look the other way as penalty money continues to flow into their bank accounts. The Toledo sewer system
was outdated many years ago, were told not to expand and make necessary repairs but nothing has ever been done, "can't afford it" is the attitude, however they keep expanding the system and collecting more sewage from outlying areas and nothing is done about it. More than half of lake eries problems come from the maumee river and another major contributor is the ottawa river next door. These two make up roughly 75% of the mess in the lake, but nothing is being done except more studies.......
