Foul-smelling manure ruined Harrington Beach enjoyment

July 18, 2018

To Ozaukee Press:
     So I thought I’d enjoy Harrington Beach State Park during the Fourth of July weekend. Wrong. Once again a nearby farmer had pumped toxic and extremely foul smelling liquid manure onto fields less than 400 feet from Lake Michigan. He also dropped it on the road; that way you can take it home with you. Want to enjoy the outdoors? Stay away from Harrington Beach.
     By the way, our state senator, Duey Strobel, has co-authored legislation to move regulation of liquid manure from the DNR to the Department of Agriculture (probably got a nice donation from the lobby robbers who are supporting this legislation). Could this be part of a larger plan to completely ruin our state parks and sell them off? I wonder how much cesspools are selling for?
     Please help stop this environmental outrage.
