Iowa's Water Quality - Earth Day 2011

Earlier this month the Iowa Department of Natural Resources released its new water quality map. It shows at least one impaired waterway in every Iowa county. Host Ben Kieffer talks with Chuck Corell, the DNR’s water quality bureau chief, about the problem and possible solutions. Then, Ben talks with Susan J. Marks about her updated and revised book,  "AquaShock: Water in Crisis."
