WATER TURKEYS....now that can be arranged.
Seriously, I'm glad I live in Texas...where personal freedoms are paramount.
I also feel your frustration and can only imagine what my frustration level would be if someone told me that I could not build my pond on my property which doesn't interfere with anyone else. It is a significant issue...and people should not have to hide behind ag. exemptions and whatever else to get their ponds built.
The only solution may be at the ballot box.
