Thanks for posting this information. As is so often the case, all this will be subject to complex interpretation, bureaucracy, and judicial rulings.

Personally, I'd love for this to go to the current Supreme Court, which I strongly suspect will be more sympathetic to private property rights than some previous SC.

Even if the worst fears aren't realized about this power grab, it will serve to deter future landowners from creating ponds. A true shame.
