Violating (yet another) Florida Law?
Title XLVI
CRIMES
Chapter 823: PUBLIC NUISANCES
823.01 Nuisances; penalty.--All nuisances that tend to annoy the community, injure the health of the citizens in general, or corrupt the public morals are misdemeanors of the second degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.083, except that a violation of s. 823.10 is a felony of the third degree.
OK, even for Marco Island, this law is not that hard to parse, is it? Uhm ... let's see -
- hundreds of people being annoyed by the noxious odor from the hydrogen sulfide,
- hundreds of people claiming to have had their health injured in general by the hydrogen sulfide.
Don't hold your breath. Or maybe you should.

how about one from the U.N.?
Security Council resolution
1373 (2001).

"... exposes people to the risk of death or serious bodily harm or exposes another persons property to the risk of extensive damage by causing a fire or flood or the harmful effects of explosives, gas, electric power or other similarly dangerous substances or forces, or commits other similarly dangerous acts, or increases or aggravates such public
endangerment or impedes the steps taken to avert or alleviate it,
shall be punished by imprisonment for a term of five to fifteen years in addition, according to the
court discretion, also by the forfeiture of property.
(2) The same sanctions shall be imposed on a person who
a) threatens to commit the acts described in paragraph 1 above, or
