EPA Spins Beach Water Quality Report as Showing "Progress"
- "We're seeing progress in keeping America's beaches clean..." - quote from U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Assistant Administrator for Water Benjamin H. Grumbles. Quote appeared in EPA's news release on the just released 2006 "Annual Beach Report" whose main findings showed a decrease in beaches monitored and an INCREASE in beaches posted with closures or advisories due to water pollution.
