Given the AG's recent concern about Nebraska's water supply, possibly he will NOW be looking into the following problems.....
The likely list of bad actors in the articles below, in large part, seem to represent Agri businesses. Fertilizers, run off from feed lots, etc.
Maybe when the Gov' is sending ICE around, looking for civil law misdemeanors by immigrants, they can look into the possibility of class IV felonies being perpetrated against the citizens by.... Well, I will let you all connect the dots.

"Ingesting high levels of nitrate has been linked to a variety of health conditions: A syndrome that can kill babies, thyroid disease, birth defects and cancers, including cancer in children. Nationally, Nebraska has the highest pediatric cancer rate west of Pennsylvania.

Nebraska counties with elevated nitrate levels are often the places where children suffer higher rates of brain cancer, lymphoma and leukemia, a recent University of Nebraska Medical Center study shows."

The Two Rivers Public Health Department on Thursday said E. coli was detected in Johnson Lake.

"According to samples taken from the lake on Monday, officials said the bacteria levels are high enough to warrant an alert.
Considering the more rapid changes in bacterial conditions, signs are not posted around the lake with these higher levels.

The health department said they want people to be aware of beach conditions and use their own judgment about whether to use a listed water body. Health officials said lake-goers should avoid situations that could cause them to swallow lake water, shower after being in the lake, and wash their hands before eating if they were in contact with the lake water."
