I'm not sure anyone so far is denying that there is sewage getting into lagoon. The real questions are: is there sewage in the lagoon? Just because the mangrove tour guide says there is doesn't make it so. Some scientific evidence would be good, like a testing of the water. Or maybe some visible sign of sewage going into it.

The second question is: if there is sewage in the lagoon, where does it enter. If it is true that the sewage is a result of the pumps being turned off in the wet season, then where does the non-pumped sewage exit the sewer pipes and enter the lagoon.

The sewer has only been in operation for 2-3 years. Was there sewage going into the lagoon before that?

If there is sewage getting into the lagoon, and it seems like there may be, then one has to ask the question - why spend money to build a bridge for the convenience of some, but ignore what is surely a health threat for most?
