Back in the seventies at Humboldt State in Arcata, California sewage was tackled and a revolutionary plan for small communities sprang up, still valid today, "wetlands provide a cleaning to water", why marshes are so valuable, by using nature with small intrusion, cattails were utilized, eventually the city signed on, the expense...nominal, so it's practical in to incorporate for areas that have small population and have marshland, something to consider, there are alternatives with the science behind it, please investigate, has been used now all over the world and is still "discovered".
My hope is this gets consideration from those in charge, kids could help grow cattails as school project, hope this helps with remedy.
