The only part I am somewhat bummed about is the ability for the EPA to go after gross offenders in farming, such as drain tile dumping into a ditch heavily laden with fertilizers and other farming contaminates. This leads to some pretty bad BGA problems in nearby waterways and Red tide in the ocean. Discharge from farms should have some restrictions on what can enter public waterways, and can be reduced by better (more expensive) practices. From what I understand, local authorities turn a blind eye to these problems as it puts their neighbors and friends in a tough position. That is where the Federal government needs the ability go go in and force change without worry about local retaliation which can ultimately result in improvement in natural resources.

Otherwise I agree, huge overreach of power that I am happy to see go away.
