Up Doo-Doo River

Tim. Seriously. You state that the water from the sewage plant will be much cleaner than the water in the river. That's true. Then you propose a continuous loop, sans portage, going with the flow from the downstream sewage plant upriver through the lake, then downstream via the river, going...

I believe that course will put you back out in the doo-doo. In the river. Which is unsafe for human contact.
