I think you'll find D's and R's on both sides of the issue.

There shouldn't be any problem passing a bill that authorizes the EPA
to exempt pleasure vessels' "discharges incidental to the normal
operation of a boat" from the more stringent- and proper- regulations
prohibiting foreign ships from dumping tons of organisms with ballast
water. Most of the enviro-groups seem to realize they will have to
live with this exemption if they want the overall law to stand.

You're as likely to find some R's who might oppose the bill in an
effort to get the ban on foreign bilge dumping lifted entirely. That
additional expense and inconvenience can't be good for the bottom line
of the various corporations that run shipping lines to US ports.

Repost from last March.........

The legislation (HR 2550) was just introduced last week.

There's not much you can do about anything while it's in the court
system. And until the court made the silly ruling that it did, there
was no need
for
the legislative branch to act. *Now there is.

The ruling was made in the fall of 2006.

God you're ****ing dense.

ELECTED OFFICIALS UNTIL MAY TWENTY-FOURTH.- Hide quoted text -

I'm dense??

Go back and read the title of the thread. It has to do with the
"ruling", and that was last September. Agreed?

(PS, it's OK to contact your elected official to ask for legislation
to be introduced. You don't have to wait until something is introduced
to express a concern about an issue.)

That would require a little effort and a stamp. And, it might remove one's
reason for whining. Who would want that to happen?

What legislation has been enacted as a result of you doing so?

This is my doing, although I suspect a few other people yelled, too:

How about you?

Follow along, please.

1. Last fall, Federal judge rules that the EPA does not have authority
to exempt recreational vessel discharges from the permitting and
enforcement process.

2. In Jan/Feb of 2007, NMMA begins spearheading an effort to convince
congress to draft legislation that would allow the EPA to exempt
recreational vessels.

3. Letters and calls from thousands of boaters (voters) around the
country bring the issue to the attention of congress.

4. The HR was introduced.

My point is simply that one doesn't have to wait until there's a bill
before the House or Senate to lobby for congressional action.

Do you know what "enacted" means?

Yep. But, that's not the point of your asking "What legislation....", now is
it?

OK. So which side of the issue will most Democrats vote? And most
Republicans?

I already know, and so do you. But are you man enough to admit it?

Man enough? Let's see if you are sober enough to back up your idiotic
comment.

A list of senators is he
http://www.senate.gov/general/contac...nators_cfm.cfm

By noon on Saturday June 2nd, I want you to present the list here in a
message, with a Y or N indicating how you think each senator will vote.
Then, you will get back here and remind us when the vote happens, so we can
compare your drunken prediction with the reality.
