Medical health officers, biologists and oceanographers who have been involved in monitoring our long outfall discharges are those who know best if we need land-based treatment — and over 40 years, not one of them has advocated that we do.

With witnesses on oath, that rule would be revealed as ridiculous — as has already been demonstrated in an identical case in the United States.
