Assignment one!


Attached is the image for the first assignment. I chose an area in Alabama on the Coosa River. I paddle the Cossa often and my wife is on the board of the Cossa River Keepers. The concern that I have mapped out was identified by the Coosa River Keepers. The threat here is that the cities drinking water intake point is directly down stream of the coal ash containment pond's discharge. This raises a few concerns!

Thanks,

Patrick
