Maybe this EPA mandate can do what comp plans and elected officials never found the spine to do. Frankly anything Barney Bishop and Assoc Ind is against is usually a good thing for the people. In fact reread the last 2 paragraphs but insert Amendment 4 in place of the Clean Water Act. Irony is thick...

I am sick of the government trying to give us healthy drinking water for our babies. The government has no business stopping polluters. I work for david koch of koch industries, the richest polluter on earth, and i have a right to kill your kids with pollution.

To bad 80 percent of the water pollution in this state is from non-specific sources. ie road run off and yard run off. All of those Yankees with green grass covered with excess fertilizer and pesticides is the biggest problem. I hope those new rules address this lunacy.

It's about time the EPA will enforce the no pollute rule. They should offer rewards to those that "report" offenders. The SJRWMD does nothing but issue permits to suck it dry or allow cities to dump improperly treated sewage into it. At least the Army Corp of Engineers sprays our "river of grass" canals and tributaries to keep them open for safe navigation and stream flows.
