How is this legal? I but organic local as often as possible. Clearly, I would not want chlorine in my organic food. I am unable to attend, how i can help fight this? Thank you, Leslie Rule

  They also have the choice of using bottled water. Maui Tomorrow is hosting this meeting to hash this all out. Please attend if you can and give your mana’o.
