Staff quoted: Don Boesch

Thirty years ago, pollution by excessive amounts of nutrients was identified as the bay's systemic problem. Although the nutrient pollution originates from numerous sources, the largest source is agriculture, coming from fertilizers not taken up by crops and from animal wastes.
