[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 753420, member: 4362"] Its going to get interesting and this new front will affect everyone in agriculture. The information I read was quite interesting as it stated that Americans use more water than anyone else on the planet - 600 liters per day but the further one moved away from agriculture the smaller the person's water footprint would be. Article went on to say with the global climate change and the growing world population this is unsustainable and WE owe it to the people in the developing countries to stop this waste. Yes, its going to be interesting. There is some negotiations taking place at this moment in Washington with a new bill. As it stands now, this bill gives the jurisdiction of All Waters in the US to the EPA. This is unconstitutional as it violates State's rights under the public yrust doctorine and the constitution is pretty clear in specifying that the federal jurisdiction is over the navigatable waters (intent to protect commerce - specifically shipping) Of course the sponsors (both D&R) of the bill say this is not their intent. If I didn't know better, after reading this information I would have been left with the impression that folks in agriculture are wasteful people who just need to quit raising protein and fiber and move to town and buy their food at Walmart like everyone else does. :dunce: I'm afraid its going to get worse. From personal experience I would guess you have one overzealous public servant who is making it hard on you. If you can identify who this person is then you can take measures to have this person removed from their position. Its difficult but it can be done. Our lives are much better without our little nit wit. [/QUOTE]
