Facing South
The 3 Rivers in Fort Wayne, Indiana appear brown and muddy, but the clay bottom makes the color less than appealing to the average American.

 Little do you know that the color is the very least of this city's problems.

The St. Joe (starting at the bottom of this picture)  is where over 200,000 people get their drinking water.

The St. Mary's (on the far right) flows through several northeast IN counties and has high pollution and lacks use.

The Maumee River has high Mercury, PCB and E. Coli content, is filling up with sediment and garbage because of bad decisions and lack of action. It also flows into the largest fresh water source in the world...The Great Lakes
