This scene today captures a number of serious issues in #englishkills :
Broken valves on the aeration system (problem 1) cause disruption to surface waters and push around
floatable debris (problem 2) so that it collects on the wrong side of a containment boom which was put in place to collect oil leaking from the adjacent property (problem 3) which in turn has now acts as an artificial trash island which this black duck uses as refuge because the bulkheaded shores provide little habitat to stand near the waters edge (problem 4).

We continue to look to city, state and federal agencies to work together on solving issues that are truly interrelated on our waterway.
