Call on Asheville City Council to do its part to clean up the French Broad River, starting with the establishment of a Stormwater Task Force to address the City’s water pollution problems. Not only does the City have a legal obligation to protect water quality, Council’s commitment to racial equity demands action to protect residents of the Southside neighborhood from the highest pollution levels in the city.
Our river is a public resource, and tens of thousands of people recreate on the French Broad every year. However, none of the testing sites within the City of Asheville pass the EPA’s safe limit on average, and the worst site that we test is Nasty Branch, which drains over half of downtown Asheville and flows through the historically African American Southside neighborhood, before discharging into the French Broad River in the River Arts District.
High levels of E. coli also indicate the presence of other, more harmful microbes, such as Cryptosporidium, Giardia, Shigella, and norovirus. Heavy rains and storms often result in spikes in E. coli contamination, increasing the risk to human health. Contact with or consumption of contaminated water can cause gastrointestinal illness and skin, ear, respiratory, eye, neurologic and wound infections. The most commonly reported symptoms are stomach cramps, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and low-grade fever.
Asheville City Council has a moral and legal responsibility under the Clean Water Act to protect our river and water quality for all city residents. Henderson County has already established a Stormwater Task Force, Asheville should too.
A rare double blister pearl wrapped in a 14 karat gold wire gallery on a strand of Czechoslovakian glass beads, this dazzling treasure is sure to make waves for the wearer
at any special occasion.
This is your chance to become the owner of a beautiful necklace with a handcrafted pendant valued at over $3,000. Created by Jeweler Charlie Wharton of Starfire Designs, this piece was generously donated by both Biltmore Lamp and Shade Gallery and the designer.
Tickets are $50 each, and only 100 tickets will be sold. If a minimum of 75 tickets is not sold, all ticket holders will receive a full refund and the raffle will not occur.
