Farmers Applaud Trump for Repealing EPA’s Rule to Regulate Water On Their Land

[Spike]

**** you Obama


Farmers are applauding President Donald Trump’s executive order Tuesday that reverses the Environmental Protection Agency’s “Waters of the United States” (WOTUS) rule, which gave the agency virtually limitless authority to regulate water on private land.

Introduced under Barack Obama, the WOTUS expanded the EPA’s interpretation of the Clean Water Act to include, as Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton said, “almost any piece of land that gets wet and puddles.”

The Clean Water Act was intended to apply to “navigable” waters, but WOTUS interpreted that extremely broadly, so that it included waters with a “significant nexus” with navigable waters — in other words, taking in water that might eventually flow into navigable waterways.

EPA reverses course, won’t seek emissions, equipment data from drillers

The Environmental Protection Agency on Thursday reversed an Obama-era plan to collect massive amounts of data from oil-and-gas companies — information that ultimately would’ve been used as the basis for new federal regulations on methane.

EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt said the requests made by the prior administration constituted unnecessary burdens on the energy industry. His action also seems to signal that the EPA will not pursue any new methane regulations anytime in the foreseeable future.

So if I understand this correctly, you get fined if you remove a wetland and you get fined if you create a wetland.

The EPA wanted to control all water rights on your property, **** them and Obama. It was a power grab and attack on property rights They wanted all serfs to obey their king.

Too bad *****. OVERRULED!

Wait, are you confusing this with the rain tax? I'm a Maryland resident. As far as I know, no one is taxed for collecting rainwater. In fact, one source I referenced says that collecting rainwater is encouraged.

The infamous Rain Tax was passed by Martin 'Tax our way to Prosperity' O'Malley. Once known as HB97, we are taxed based upon the amount of rain that has fallen.
