I just have to ask why the fear mongering in this article.

They use a report from 23 years ago to tell people the water is polluted.

Today the Ohio Fish and Game have approved consumption of most fish caught in the Mahoning, on a limited basis.

Fact is that without the pollutants being dumped into the river,  Mother Nature is cleaning up after us.

I'm certain we could do more, but this article ignores the updated truths.

I'm not trying to be argumentative, but technically, mother nature is encapsulating our mess, not cleaning up after us.
