Wed Jun 25 2008 (Updated 06/26/08) George W Bush Sewage Treatment Plant
SF Residents Want To Put Bush\'s Name On Sewage Plant A group of San Francisco residents called The Presidential Memorial Commission of San Francisco are gathering signatures for an initiative to be put on the November ballot. The Initiative will ask to rename Oceanside Water Pollution Control Plant the George W Bush Sewage Plant.

The group has managed to collect 8,500 signatures so far (15,000 are needed for an initiative). The initiative is going to read: Should The City And County of San Francisco Rename The Oceanside Water Pollution Control Plant the George W Bush Sewage Plant?

Some San Francisco residents strongly object to the resolution. One commentator on Indybay writes "sewage plants are a vital necessity to our survival, and fertilizer is necessary for plant growth upon which our food depends". The commentator goes on to say that we should "respect the labor that makes possible the work of the sewage plants" and passage of the resolution "honors Bush" and thus should be opposed.
