Dear Captain Garrett,
It has come to my attention that the Cal Tip Line, which you have referred me to for pollution etc. in our once protected wetlands, has become quite hostile to callers who are concerned about the vast pollution in the Binford Rd/Rush Creek Preserve Novato.
The dispatcher at the Cal Tip Line has accused at least two callers, in the last two days of being me and was refusing to take reports.
If you do your job and take the trash (which includes bloody tampons/blood-streaked tampon applicators/ used condoms/human feces) from the RV residents out of the wetlands, the dispatcher will not be receiving any more calls.
As the dispatcher works for the people of Novato and for the species that are dying, I am requesting you address her bad behavior with her.
It is posted on the Binford/Rush Creek Wetlands dilapidated fences, if there is pollution in the wetlands to report it. On your website it says to report pollution. That is what the good people of Novato are doing.
On another note, I talked to an attorney yesterday and she said you may not have know about the FOIA law which is required by our government to be transparent to the people. I am exercising my right as an American for the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) to receive copies of all reports of water samples from 2019, to present (5.4.2023) from Fish and Wildlife of the Rush Creek Preserve. By law, you have 14 days in order to provide said documents.
Captain Garrett, I and the community are very concerned about the destruction of our wetlands on Binford Road Novato. Fish and Wildlife is supposed to be a voice for the environment as our species do not have one. As there has been fentanyl use and a recent death by an overdose of the drug on Binford Rd, I can only imagine that the dead fish I have seen are possibly dying from that too.
Once again, I invite you on a personal field trip by me and my husband to Binford Road, Novato. The photos are not as enlightening as the actual visual experience.
The RV residents are taking advantage of the situation and are using the wetlands as their personal playground and toilet.
Attached are pictures of the abuse and lack of respect to our wetlands by the RV residents. This needs to stop immediately. Until then, the calls and emails will keep coming!
