JAVIER ORNELAS

The car pulls up in front of City Hall. You and Carolyn find Javier Ornelas at a cubicle in the water department. You and Carolyn explain the situation to him. Before you finish, he's shaking his head.

"You guys are barking up the wrong tree," he says. He calls up some data on his computer screen. "We test the water in Slow Water Park regularly. We look for chemicals, particulates, bacteria – anything that could pose a health hazard." He gestures at the screen.
It shows this year's test results for Slow Water

Park. All the results are green - within acceptable limits.

Carolyn frowns. "This shows that the pollutant levels are below what would harm humans," she says. "But do we know they're below the level that harms frogs?"

Now it's Javier's turn to frown. "Well, I couldn't tell you about that," he says.
