Letter to Congress

Dear Congressman Filner,
I am writing to you about my concern s for the future of the Salton Sea and how I fear it may affect southern California, possibly for the worst but hopefully for the best. As you may know the Salton Sea is on it's way out, the future of the sea and it's wildlife population is grim. As you also may know, many ideas have been proposed about what to do with the sea however none of them have gotten much support. I am asking you to make the Salton Sea a top priority. I understand the state of California is currently having financial problems and that federal funding is not the best option right now but I believe that any work done to restore the Salton Sea would benefit the not only the environment of Imperial county as well as southern California but also our local economy. With the Salton Sea restored through a pipe in/out system, it could be turned into a tourist attraction that would attract possible investors wishing to turn the Sea into a resort area that would offer the best inland fishing and boating area in southern California. In the long run this would boost our local economy and would hopefully benefit our beautiful state. The choice is yours Congressman and I hope you do whatever is in your power invest in our future. Thank you very much for your time.

Sincerely,
Zack Farrell
