Anyone may add data, summit analysis or provide insight to the issues; however, please keep in mind the concept of community communication.

Incomplete information or ideas need to get stated on occasion, so they can be discussed, corrected and developed.

Health[edit | edit source]

The Arcta marsh was created by human and continues to be impacted by us.

  • Is the Arcata marsh healthy?
  • By what standard and within what timeframe is the claim made that the marshes are healthy regardless of the violations?
  • Note violations of Copper, Cyanide, Coliform, and BOD5
  • Just who's health do we have in mind here (think time-scales)?
  • People (present, future, socio-economics class)
  • environment (by what standards)
  • creatures (frogs, microbes,ghost shrimp, horn snails and their paracites)
  • maintaining the interconnected relationships of living processes
