This group has been winning in court lately too and have been very active.
Better watch out Harrisburg.

Not sure such legal action will have real world impact. . . but it does help with publicity and keeps the problem in the eyes of the public.

With all the talk about potential national infrastructure improvements (no, I'm not starting a political thread) that usually revolve around roads and bridges, one can hope that sewage treatment and, more broadly, water quality improvements, could receive some increased funding.

Funding to fix H-burg's storm water/sewage system would be well spent.
