As a water quality guy I have to say this is long overdue but I expect
a lot of pushback from the farmers, particularly the Frank Purdue
empire on the Eastern Shore but this can affect people all the way up
to Binghampton NY and beyond. I know when I was bass fishing in the
Susquahanna up there I was thinking I could put a message in a bottle
and have someone find it in Hampton Roads


Fertilizer will now be sold out of the back of vans instead of really
big speakers.

It will cost money to change current practices and the agricultural
businesses in and around the Chesapeake tributaries wield an enormous
amount of political power.

So...*some* political discussions are OK, eh, such as a discussion about
agribusiness? Or is it corporate pollution?

When you look at the size of the Chesapeake Bay Watershed it is
enormous.

This is not really a political posting if you ever put your boat in
the water. Boaters should be interested in the water they boat in,
particularly if they fish or swim.



Just about anything having to do with pollution abatement is political,
tim. Forcing the heavy pollutors around the Bay to clean up their acts
*is* political.

The outcome may be good for boaters, but the process is as political as
it gets. There are politics involved in many, many aspects of pleasure
boating.

The Chesapeake Bay Foundation has been fighting tooth and nail for the EPA to do

You can be sure "corporate interests" will do everything in their power
to interfere with and halt enforcement.

I've told everyone here what a paradise the Chesapeake is because I live
here and anywhere I don't live is almost inhabitable. Just because it is
a large sewer doesn't matter.
