I was listening to the BEST of Mark Levin and heard about the EPA's "NEW" rules... As Marks says, First it is air, then water, our bodies are next."
The EPA is the ones that banned DDT, DDT has saved.....well read about DDT on www.PerformanceBoatMagazine.com (http://www.PerformanceBoatMagazine.com) .
QUOTE: the EPA: A PowerPoint presentation on the November 2009 Rule Amendments is now available.

EPA Announces Final Amendments to the Oil Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) Rule
On November 5, 2009, the EPA Administrator signed a notice amending certain requirements of the Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) rule in order to address additional areas of regulatory reform that have been raised by the regulated community. The November 2009 amendments revise the December 2008 amendments as a result of EPA's review of comments and consideration of all relevant facts. EPA is either taking no action or providing minor technical corrections on the majority of the December 2008 provisions. However, this action modifies the December 2008 rule by removing the provisions to: exclude farms and oil production facilities from the loading/unloading rack requirements; exempt produced water containers at an oil production facility; and provide alternative qualified facilities eligibility criteria for an oil production facility.
Additionally, because of the uncertainty surrounding the final amendments to the December 5, 2008, rule and the delay of the effective date, EPA will propose to extend the compliance date.
This rule is effective January 14, 2010.
