Here is another view on the system (from a competitor, it seems :-) http://216.239.59.104/search?q=cache...chlorine&hl=nl A former competitor whose Type I MSD--the SeaLand SanX, which requires the use of a formaldehyde based chemical, and barely treats to legal standards was finally discontinued a couple of years ago. It's not just the Lectra/San he lobbies against...it's the use of ANY treatment device. Because the SeaLand device is the most environmentally UNfriendly any Type I treatment device could be, he became a committed advocate of universal "no discharge" in an effort defeat pending new legislation that would have reduced the allowable bacteria count in the discharge from treatment devices from it's current level of 1,000/100 ml to 10/100 ml (which the SeaLand device could not come close to meeting, but the Lectra/San does) and allowed the discharge of treated waste from devices that met the new standard in all coastal waters including those designated "no discharge." McKiernan was determined to defeat it rather than risk losing sales of holding tanks to competitors' treatment devices.
