Erin Brockovich announces support of Congressman Mast’s Bill to stop the discharges

Stuart, Fl- Erin Brockovich visited Stuart Sunday to announce her support for Congressman Brian Mast’s ‘Stop Harmful Discharges Act’.

The bill, authored by Mast, would make the Army Corps of Engineers consider public health and safety a priority when determining when and where to release water from Lake Okeechobee.

“I’ve never seen a toxic algae bloom where there has been as little response to massive fish kills, manatees, dolphins sick, respiratory problems. People can’t get out on their boats, they can’t get out on the water, businesses can’t do business. I’ve never seen a situation like this, ever,” said Brockovich.

Brockovich also took time to meet with St. Lucie County families regarding glioblastoma cases.
