Its been a long time coming... dealing with environmental discharge and wetland issues on a regular basis, it has always baffled me how this was allowed to continue. More info:

It's great to see the EPA doing its job! Unfortunately, attacks by conservative administrations over the last 30 years have all but gutted the EPA.... I do not think we have came around the bend yet, but if these truly heinous operations are held off permanently and our environmental laws upheld, this would be a step in the right direction.

Just a reminder to keep politics out of this discussion.

That is all,
