Presumably that’s safe to dump into the sea shore when it’s that diluted.
- freetime2 6y agoYup and will further dilute by orders of magnitude once released into the open ocean.
- toomuchtodo 6y agoAbsolutely, but it’s critical monitoring is occurring to ensure enough dilution is taking place to render what is being dumped harmless.
