Cities were monitoring more ordsprog

Cities were monitoring more and going into shock over what pollution had been ignored for years if not decades. Now we have spent hundreds of millions for new sewers and storm outflow controls and things are dramatically better than they were five years ago.

gets better every day, but from what I saw every day, we spent hundreds of millions on an agency that was worthless at the time of the storm. Either they need to get better, or someone needs to take over their job.

Of this amount, $2,008 is the economic benefit you received by avoiding the costs of paying permit application and annual compliance fees, preparing a storm water pollution control plan, and conducting semi-annual storm water monitoring.

You're looking at decades. But I also think you're potentially looking at hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of dollars.

As the money begins to flow, some fear the agency could become overwhelmed.] They've never spent anything even remotely on this scale. So the real question is going to be what kind of controls are in place, ... There are going to be fraudsters coming out of the woodwork.

We're not looking so much at pollution inside the city because that's already fairly well known. We're looking at the outflow. For the first time we'll have an idea of how much pollution is outside the city and be able to understand its full life cycle.

For decades, people thought of the Earth's interior as changing very slowly over millions of years.

We're not looking so much at pollution inside the city, because that's already fairly well known. We're looking at the outflow. For the first time we'll have an idea of how much pollution is affecting areas outside the city, and be able to understand its full importance.
