Details on that storm drain would be helpful. Is it a direct outfall to a local waterway, as so many storm drains are? So much for the Dems being great environmentalists.

Storytime:
Back when I was Senior Ed at Off-Road.com back in the late 90s/early 2000s, we were usually fighting with one environazi group or another. The Sierra Club Legal Defense Fund had us on speed dial threatening all manner of legal hell and lawsuits because of columns I wrote or articles we published. One such threat came after we caught them cold advertizing a Sierra Club outing into an area they had gotten closed to Off-Highway vehicles...anything motorized basically. Now you might think 'No biggie. They are going to hike there." And that would make sense. However...
This was scheduled to take place about 100 miles in the middle of the Mohave desert. In the summer.
The area I grew up in, the Adirondacks of NY, had a rich famly called the Whitneys who had an estate called Whitney Castle, on their land refered to as Whitney Park. the area made them lots of money from logging. The land was open to hunters etc. The Sierra Club ended up taking possession after one of the last surviving family members gave it to them to make up for the evil logging her family did to use as a nature center/educational hub of sorts.
Sierra, last I knew, uses it as a retreat for it's execs and it's off limits to the public.
Thats Democrat environmentalism in the real world.
