Revelers celebrate Clean Water Act’s 40th
St. Johns River supporters gathered at Sadler Point Marina last month for a fete honoring the 40th birthday of the Clean Water Act. The event, which attracted guests of all ages, included trivia, kids’ activities, music and local brew from SweetWater Brewing and food from Super Food Truck. The St. Johns Riverkeeper played host for the evening festivities, which put the Clean Water Act in the spotlight. The act, passed by Congress in 1972, played a major role in the protection and restoration of the St. Johns River and gave regulatory agencies the authority to hold polluters accountable for their actions, regulate the discharge of pollution and establish water quality standards.
