Different Take on Beach Panel
* I disagree with the conclusions in the article “Experts Criticize Dirty Beach Closure†(March 2).
I attended the same meeting and concluded the expert panel commended the actions taken by all the various agencies involved.
The panel, in hindsight, recommended additional actions that could be taken if this or a similar event were to occur in the future.
Rather than criticize what had been done, the panel critiqued what was done.
It is important to recognize the timely response and actions taken by all the agencies involved, especially the leadership effort taken by the Orange County Sanitation District.
