Water purity, protection from Pacificans and others

Pacifica Tribune Letters to the Editor, 7/30/13, "Green and beyond" by Jenny Apodaca

Yep, no place for potted ferns either

"Editor:  Pacificans' water is endangered and is being destroyed by the use of fuels, oils, pesticides, cleaners, herbicides, pampas grass, scotch broom, yellow star thistle and treatment plants. Pacifica needs to make it illegal to use watering systems for lawns and gardens.

Pacifica needs to prohibit hunting, fishing, harassment of fish, wildlife, taking of vegetation, flowers, foliage, seeds, fruit, berries of plants, mold, humus grass, turf, shrubs, cones, ferns, mushrooms, feathers, talons, habitat nests, dens, water bodies, soils, archaeological artifacts, amphibians, frogs, salamanders and silt fence in creeks.

Pacifica needs a watershed status. This status would convert the police and fire to the forestry department. Pacifica needs to maintain and improve the water quality to protect the public health and safety."

Note:  The above Letter to the Editor was printed in the Pacifica Tribune as one paragraph.  The  potted fern photograph is from NPR, "Three-minute fiction".
