I'm not sure what this sentence is supposed to mean, but it needs editing: "Around 1900's the city began discharging sewage into Lake Washington". Around the early 1900s? Circa 1900? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Conservatif (talk • contribs) 05:49, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

Please further discuss Lake Washington's salt content, including how the salt mixes with [its] freshwater, and how this content relates to, and interacts with the other connecting lakes. [--21:51, 18 September 2005 67.170.113.110]

"Washington State" is a proper noun. Wouldn't a reader recognize that Washington State and Seattle are in the U.S? ("USA" is redundant.)

Perhaps it would be useful to include some of the projects put in place that allowed for the diversion of sewage from Lake Washington, as well as the costs for these efforts.
