William J. Jones is an audit supervisor for Belthorp Industries. During an audit of the plant's facilities, which are located on the shoreline of the Bountiful River, he discovered that a thick, foul-smelling sludge was being pumped from the plant into the river. The trees and plant life surrounding the entry point appeared sick and sparse.

Mr. Jones knew that there was a state law forbidding the direct deposit of industrial sludge into the state's waterways without proper treatment, and he also knew that this particular sludge probably was doing considerable harm to the fish and animal life downstream.
