Joanne,
an excellent question. A broader one is what is it that attracts =
birds to the outfalls? The warm temperature of the discharge? it seems =
that a lot of the herring and great black-backed gulls that used to =
frequent the Point Pleasant Park outfalls were just bathing. Lots of =
preening, wind fluttering, etc. is the attraction the fish that are =
themselves attracted to this warm water? The sewage itself?
