for Religious reasons, Biodegradable or otherwise, it's a violation of the Federal Clean Water Act (illegal to pollute or discharge any item(s) into the waterways of the State). Did you know its illegal to discharge even drinking water into a river, lake or other waterway because drinking water may have been chemically treated with lime, chlorine or fluoride? Equally illegal is discharging non treated warm or cold water into a waterway. Water temperature also has Environmental impacts.

andy you are going to be very busy for eleven days that is how long the festival lasts it started on the 13th of this month so you are going to find a bunch of them. i looked on amazon they go for 25 to 65 dollars a pop. they even have some sort of praide with music and all before sinking them in a river or ocean.

That one, run by Suma Foods in N. Brunswick, is conducted legally: They get
the required permits for the event and only immerse the idols in the water. They don't dump the idols in the river.
