Sounds like people really
Sounds like people really need to distinguish the difference between grain ( grain sinks ) and chaff/dust. This has been happening for nearly 40 years when the wind blows NW/onshore like it was yesterday and all of a sudden its a big issue . Seriously guys cmon . Ive heard ships have been loading around the clock there lately.

Its called dust extraction,
Its called dust extraction, part of their EPA approval to operate. anything going into the sound has an impact. So you don't have a problem with crap going into the sound?
