Opinion: The nonpoint trap – How decades of law became state control
Published 4 months, 4 weeks ago
Description
Nancy Churchill contends that Washington’s Department of Ecology is using decades of layered laws and the Clean Water Act to extend its reach into rural life. She says landowners face rising threats from nonpoint pollution regulations, which could strip away property rights and impose costly mandates. Churchill urges rural residents to submit comments before the Aug. 29 deadline and to push Congress for changes. https://www.clarkcountytoday.com/opinion/opinion-the-nonpoint-trap-how-decades-of-law-became-state-control/ #Opinion #WashingtonState #PropertyRights #Ecology #CleanWaterAct
