EPA land grab? Agency claims authority over more streams, wetlands

AGAIN!!??!!

Neofascists in government are not new. Since 1972 the Supreme court has ruled decisively two or three times that ephemeral water and puddles that are created in ruts and hollows do not invalidate the concept of private property ownership.
For many years, it was the Corps (heh heh) of Engineers which abused the concept of "navigable waters."
Now it's the EPA?

I can't wait to see what the "new reality Supreme Court decides this time. In the past most owners were driven to bankruptcy before the Supreme Court ruled n the case. We're talking ten years or more!

Yes, and I understand the “navigable waters” has already been abused by the EPA, now they want jurisdiction over “seasonal” waters.
