The EPA's "Accomplishments"......
Worst mine spill disaster in history. The Gold King mine leaching pit and holding pond, 3 million gallons of arsenic contaminated water released into the Animas River in Southern Colorado, courtesy of incompetence in position of the EPA directors. Those who have operated heavy equipment KNOW that this could have easily been averted. Go in with a couple of bulldozers and backhoes, drop down below the holding pond, build a MUCH LARGER pond below the original one, then release the contents into the new pond. Did they do that...?? Now, you know the rest of the story, and in reality how INCOMPETENT the directors are at the EPA.. (they have no idea what a bulldozer is or how to use it.)
The "Natural Waters and Nagivable Waters overreach".. During the Obama years the EPA wanted to and courtesy of a Democrat libtard controlled congress, the EPA declared ALL navigable waters (if you could put a canoe in it and paddle more than 10', it was considered navigable) or if you pumped water out of the aquifer and used it on the surface (which every farmer and rancher does in the country) the EPA wanted dominion over it.. They did, basically, until Trump. With a stroke of a pen, Trump returned the water rights under the ground and on a persons property to that person. Every farmer / rancher in the country suddenly had free use of THEIR water.
In southern Louisana, a black fellow wanted to start a catfish farm - on his own land, deeded to him by his father. The Army Corps of Engineers and the EPA strode in the said "If you disturb and area greater than 4' X 4' of the "Wetlands" you can't do this." Excuse me...?? Making a catfish farm IS CREATING WETLANDS...!! Anyway, the EPA and Army Corps of Engineers tied this man up in so much red tape and court for so long, he lost his inheritance to back taxes, ruined the man financially. Now, guess what. A nice new subdivision sets on the exact location of the proposed catfish farm, and the new owner / developer disturbed FAR MORE than any 4' X 4' area of "Wetlands".... Guess its ok with the EPA and Army Corps of Engineers to disturb wetlands (entirely cover them up) if you're a rich white guy..
Watford City, ND.. The EPA and Army Corps of Engineers stopped some of the drilling going on as they wouldn't let the reclaim water / drilling fluid / waste be stored in a pond withing 100' of a river. (Missouri headwaters). Soooo, the drilling companies and trucking companies went out, bought their own land, and made a holding pond of about 100,000 gal to store / dispose of the residual waste (mostly drilling mud). The EPA and Army Corps of Engineers stepped in and put a stop to it, making so much red tape and chaos about it that the companies involved may never get out of court. North Dakota approved of this venture, but ignored / bypassed EPA... Ooops...
In the Grand Canyon, if visitors vehicles leave so much a one drip of oil or anti-freeze on the pavement at Visitor Centers parking sites, the EPA and known communists - can if they want - cite those visitors with environmental contamination by a petroleum substance, and cause those peoples lives with living hell. To date, I don't think the EPA or the National Parks Service are enforcing this one, as they are aware of the backlash.
Yellowstone National Park.... If you own a Ford F-250 or F-350 pickup with a Powerstroke Diesel, and have deleted the EGR recirculation cooler, you will not be allowed into the park over "Environmental Pollution Concerns" issued by the - you guessed it - EPA and National Parks Service... And the Park Rangers WILL make you pop the hood and they will check...
Only the likes of Maxine Waters, and Nancy Pelosi would term axing the EPA's long-standing COMMUNIST RULE over America ..... racist... Its what they do... Democrat Libtard Progressivism on display at its finest....
