quote: Which "waters" are protected by the Clean Water Act? Does CWA regulate any discharges into most US tributaries and adjacent wetlands, or only direct discharges into larger "traditionally navigable" waters? The US Supreme Court is about to consider these questions in two landmark cases - and perhaps make as important a decision on environmental law as any ever issued by the court. This decision could significantly affect development, industry, and waste-management practices throughout the country.
So it may be alright to dump wastes into a creek just not directly into the navigable waters. Are kidding me??? I'm speechless....

There was a time in my life when I would have (and may have) advocated the sabotage of companies that pollute egregiously. Nowdays you'd be labled as a terrorist for such words however.

While they may be consevatives, they are not morons. No way this BS will fly with the SC. |
"...things I have neither seen nor experienced nor heard tell of from anybody else; things, what is more, that do not in fact exist and could not ever exist at all. So my readers must not believe a word I say." -Lucian on his book True History
"...They accept such things on faith alone, without any evidence. So if a fraudulent and cunning person who knows how to take advantage of a situation comes among them, he can make himself rich in a short time." -Lucian critical of early Christians c.166 AD From his book, De Morte Peregrini |
