5 . High nutrient inputs to Lagoon waters result from storm water releases , <br /> runoff, seeping septic systems and overflow events at sewage treatment <br /> plants . The cumulative results of those events reduce water quality <br /> creating a chain of negative impacts on the Lagoon , Including recent <br /> algae superblooms . <br /> The health of the Indian River Lagoon is a foundation of economic viability <br /> and social wealth for the Treasure and Space Coasts . An overall vision and <br /> viable plan to restore the Lagoon back to health is the top priority . We the <br /> undersigned believe a successful Lagoon remediation will require <br /> government leadership and community commitment by all . We cannot delay <br /> - the future of the Lagoon is in our hands and must be addressed on our <br /> watch . <br /> This document is a " Call to Action " for our governments to accept this <br /> leadership role . <br /> Individual : <br /> Organization : Indian River County Board of County Commissioners <br /> Contact Person .
