Because when it dumps right next to shore, all of it washes up on the
beaches, where it's harmful to humans.  Where they dump it a few miles
out, it stays there or goes out because of the currents in that area.
It's nothing that's toxic to the environment, it's toxic to humans.
It's treated waste that still includes bacteria and viruses harmful to
humans.  It takes some time to die.

If you want to pay for it, feel free to start a fund.
