HEARTLAND INSTITUTE'S PETITION TO RESTORE RULE OF LAW TO EPA. HERE'S HOW TO SIGN...
The HEARTLAND INSTITUTE is circulating a citizens’ petition to restore the Rule of Law to EPA .
Details and how to sign --
Thousands Sign Heartland Institute Petition
to Rein in the EPA
More than
5,000 people have signed a petition crafted by The Heartland Institute
demanding that Congress “rein in the Environmental Protection Agency”
through deep cuts in the size, power, and cost of the agency.
According to the Citizen’s Petition to Rein in the Environmental Protection Agency,
EPA has “lost its war to scare America into giving [it] legislation
that would allow [it] to seize control of virtually all energy
production and use, [and is] perverting the Clean Air law to give
[itself] unprecedented powers to regulate American society.”
Heartland says it will publicly present the petitions to Congress once the drive hits 10,000 signatures.
Joseph
Bast, president of The Heartland Institute, says that in the name of
fighting global warming, EPA has become a “rogue agency,” spending $9
billion in 2012 alone to shackle individuals and businesses with
expensive and wasteful compliance orders and mandates without the
consent of Congress. According to Bast:
“The toll
EPA is now taking on our country is staggering, putting hundreds of
thousands of Americans out of work at a time when millions of people are
out of work and our reliance on foreign sources of energy threatens to
compromise the nation’s security. The solution is to rein in EPA through
deep cuts in the size, power, and cost of the agency. This can be done
by Congress, through its control over the government’s purse, or by a
president willing to put sound science and a strong economy ahead of the
demands of environmental extremists.”
Read the petition and background essay by The Heartland Institute here. For more comments or to book a Heartland guest on your program, please contact Tammy Nash at tnash@heartland.org and 312/377-4000. After regular business hours, contact Jim Lakely at jlakely@heartland.org and 312/731-9364.
The Heartland Institute
is a 28-year-old national nonprofit organization headquartered in
Chicago, Illinois. Its mission is to discover, develop, and promote
free-market solutions to social and economic problems. For more

THE REAL FACE OF ECO-TERRORISM
[http://oversight.house.gov/]
Mandate Madness: When Sue and Settle Just Isn’t Enough
June 28, 2012
The new face of eco-terrorism is Barack Obama.
9:00am in 2203 Rayburn House Office Building
The Oversight and Government Reform Committee has focused a
significant amount of attention this Congress on the red tape that is
strangling economic growth and holding us back from prosperity.
At today’s hearing, we will continue this inquiry by examining the
highly questionable practice perfected by the Environmental Protection
Agency – known as “Sue and Settle,” which has emboldened the
Administration to pursue an aggressive green agenda while escaping
political accountability for the cost and burdens these regulations
impose on job creators.
The process is rather simple: environmental groups will sue the EPA,
demanding the agency issue a regulation on an accelerated timeframe.
Rather than fighting the lawsuit, EPA quickly agrees to the special
interest demands.
These settlement agreements are reached after closed-door
negotiations between EPA and environmental groups where other interested
parties are excluded.
Once the settlement is approved by a federal court in a consent decree, the EPA is legally bound to engage in the rulemaking.
It is important to note that when a court approves a consent decree,
it does not consider the merits – the court is merely accepting and
ratifying what the parties agreed to.
In the past 3 years, the Administration has concluded approximately
60 settlements with special interest – 29 of these agreements bound EPA
to make major policy changes. The plaintiffs in these cases are often
the very same reoccurring players – the Sierra Club, NRDC, Defenders of
Wildlife, Wild Earth Guardians, and Center for Biological Diversity.
These special interest groups not only hold a special seat at the
table with Obama’s EPA – EPA effectively pays them to sue the agency!
In 2011 alone, taxpayers reimbursed these groups millions to participate
in cozy sue and settle arrangements.
In addition to examining this outrageous practice, we will hear today
about two particularly egregious cases where EPA defied all norms of
transparency, sidelined interested parties, and is now in the process of
imposing extraordinarily burdensome regulations.
These two case studies are EPA’s Regional Haze Regulations and its’ Greenhouse Gas Standards for Power Plants.
In the case of Regional Haze – Congress was crystal clear that this
purely aesthetic visibility program is to be administered by the states
and not by EPA. Through Sue and Settle, EPA is attempting to federalize
the program; and imposing costs well beyond what the state had
determined was necessary or justified. Ultimately, EPA’s proposal will
costs billions of dollars for visibility improvements that are
undetectable to the human eye.
In the second case study – New Source Performance Standards (NSPS)
for Electric Utilities, EPA concluded settlement negotiations on
December 23, 2010, and agreed to promulgate NSPS for greenhouse gases
for BOTH new and existing electric generating units under Sections
111(a) and 111(d) of the Clean Air Act.
At the time the settlement was reached, EPA was not in violation of
any mandatory duty and as such, the litigants didn’t have a legal leg to
stand on. And yet the agency settled, committing the agency to make
major policy changes, without interested parties at the table, and
rewarding litigants with a cash prize they never were entitled to.
These two case studies are but two examples of the dozens of policy
changes EPA has committed to in sweetheart sue and settle arrangements
with special interests. Time and again, when EPA is criticized for the
excessive burden imposed by their agency – whether it be Utility MACT,
Boiler MACT, Florida Water Quality Standards, Regional Haze, NAAQS or
NSPS – EPA’s response is suspiciously similar – The agency has no
discretion to extend the timeline to hear additional points of view – it
is under court order to finalize the regulations by a date certain.
But let us be clear – What EPA claims the law requires them to do is
nothing more than what EPA has agreed to do in a collusive arrangement
with special interest allies. These arrangements are fundamentally
unfair, lack transparency, are designed to circumvent other regulatory
checks Congress has put in place. Environmental regulations only work
when they are made in an open process that involves all stakeholders.
Sue-and-settle rulemaking is an affront to that process.
Finally, I want to note that I very much wanted a representative from
the EPA to be here today to respond to the concerns that our panelists
will be raising. However, despite adequate notice, EPA has refused to
provide a witness for today’s proceedings. I am hopeful that we can
find a date in the near future when they can make an appropriate witness
available to respond and add detail.

EPA DEFINES THE DITCH AS NAVIGABLE WATERWAY - TIME TO FIGHT BACK
http://visiontoamerica.org/10377/epa-defines-ditch-as-navigable-waterway-in-attempt-to-grab-power-over-land-owners/
We still have a Constitution and a Declaration of Independence. The remedies, and the guarantees of our rights especially here regarding private property is clear.
EPA is going to start a crisis - before the election and it will be backed up by DHS. You wait.

BLOCK EPA & CORPS WETLANDS JURISDICTION OVER YOUR WATER AND LAND

Block EPA & Corps Wetlands Jurisdiction Over Your Water & Land
*Do You Want The EPA &Corps In Your Backyard?*
Do you want the EPA & Corps jurisdiction over all forest roads?
If Not, Here’s Why You Need The
*“Preserve The Waters Of The US Act” (S-2245)*
Below are action items to protect your water and your land as well as
roads on Federal land. But first, read this:
* *
-----The EPA wants to lift the ban that prevents Washington , DC
bureaucrats from regulating non-navigable waters.
-----Lifting the navigable ban, passed by Congress to protect
families, small businesses and farmers from federal bureaucrats
seizing their water or their land, would devastate economic and
recreational activity as well as small communities across the U.S.
------You need to insist that Congress not remove the requirement set
by Congress in the original Clean Water Act that said the EPA and
Corps *can only regulate “navigable waters”*. The EPA and Corps
want to eliminate the word “navigable” and give the EPA and Corps
jurisdiction over “all waters of the United States and all
activities affecting all waters of the United States .”
-----If the ban is lifted, when it rains, your backyard or farm
becomes a minefield of Washington red tape and taxes.
-----If you’re a farmer, when it rains, your backyard becomes a
bonanza for Washington , DC bureaucrats to go on your property to
force you from doing activities like building a swimming pool,
installing a bird bath, running rainwater away from your home,
irrigating your fields, installing stock watering ponds and many
more.
-----If you’re a suburban homeowner, when it rains, the water in
your backyard allows Washington , DC bureaucrats on your property to
block you from doing basic things without a permit that can cost
thousands of dollars and long delays causing great damage.
-----Congress blocked attempts by former Congressman James Oberstar
(D-MN) and former Senator Russ Feingold (R-MN) from passing the Clean
Water Restoration Act, which would have lifted the “navigable”
ban. As with the EPA and Corp, Oberstar and Feingold tried to remove
the word “navigable” from the Clean Water Act.
-----Despite Congress not changing the law, the Obama EPA and Army
Corps of Engineers are attempting to remove this key protection for
families, small business and farmers by issuing an internal guidance
document to agency bureaucrats telling them it is now OK to regulate
non-navigable waters on people’s property throughout the United
States. The Obama folks seem to care less
about how they are ignoring two Supreme Court decisions.
-----The Preserve The Waters of the US Act (S-2245) would stop
Washington overreach and block any further attempt to issue
“guidance” to agency bureaucrats that says it is OK to regulate
non-navigable water in people’s backyards and farms.
*Preserve the waters of the u.s. Act (S-2245)*
*Purpose:* To preserve existing rights and responsibilities with
respect to waters of the U.S.
* *
*Background:* In May 2011, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
and Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) issued draft guidance on
“Identifying Waters Protected by the Clean Water Act.”
This guidance document, which was sent in final form to OMB on
February 21, 2012, significantly changes and expands what features
are considered protected under the Clean Water Act and makes
substantial additions, such as a first time inclusion of ditches and
other water features that may flow, if at all, only after a heavy
rainfall.
EPA and the Corps received over 230,000 comments from the public on
their guidance, discussing the potential consequences of the draft
guidance to governments, businesses, and landowners. They have not
responded to the comments.
EPA and the Corps estimate that between 2 – 17% percent of
non-jurisdictional determinations under current practice would be
jurisdictional using the expanded tests of the new guidance.[1]
<#_ftn1>
This guidance has clear regulatory consequences and goes far beyond
being simply advisory guidelines.
*The legislation (S-2245) prevents EPA and the Corps from using this
/guidance/ to change legal responsibilities under the Clean Water
Act.*
*-----Regulation through Guidance:* By issuing a guidance document as
opposed to going through the rulemaking process, EPA and the Corps are
bypassing the necessary public outreach required under the
Administrative Procedures Act and failing to fully consider the
legal, economic, and unforeseen consequences of their actions.
* *
*-----Applies to all Clean Water Act (CWA) Programs:* In addition to
the Corps §404 dredge and fill permits, the guidance applies to all
CWA programs including §303 water quality standards, §401 state
water quality certifications, §311 Oil Pollution Act (including
SPCC), and §402 program (including NPDES permits, pesticide general
permit, and storm water).
*-----Increasing Permits: *EPA and the Corps affirm that this
guidance will result in an increase in jurisdictional determinations
that will result in an increased need for permits. In addition to
more Corps §404 permits, State-permitting authorities will be faced
with more NPDES permits and more entities will be subject to CWA
requirements.
*-----Economic and Job Impacts:* Additional regulatory costs
associated with changes in jurisdiction and increases in permits will
erect bureaucratic barriers to economic growth, negatively impacting
farms, small businesses, commercial development, road construction
and energy production, to name a few.
*-----Impact on State on Local Governments:* Changes to the “waters
of the U.S. ” definition may have far-reaching effects and unintended
consequences on a number of state and local programs. The guidance
creates significant unfunded mandates and preempts state and local
authority.
*-----Conflicts with Supreme Court Rulings:* The guidance uses an
overly broad interpretation of the /Rapanos /decision. The effect is
virtually all wet areas that connect in any way to navigable waters
are jurisdictional. Both the plurality opinion and Kennedy rejected
this assertion in /Rapanos/.
* *
*-----Private Property Rights:* Expanding federal control over
intrastate waters will substantially interfere with the ability of
individual landowners to use their property.
* *
*-----Action Items:*
* *
*-----1. It’s critical to get some of the Senators below as
co-sponsors of the Preserve The Waters Of The US Act (S 2245). *You
need to call, fax and e-mail your Senator (s) listed below to urge
them to cosponsor the Preserve The Waters Of The US Act.
-----2. For more information about S 2245 type in to Google the
following search term: Preserve The Waters Of The US Act.
-----3. Please forward this message to at least 10 other people. Your
whole list if possible.
The best thing to do is write a letter with your letterhead and
either fax it or e-mail it to your Senator (s). They don’t like
attachments so call ahead to ask for the staff person who handles the
Clean Water Act and Wetlands issues. Ask for his personal e-mail and
send him your letter.
* *
We’ve listed the fax of each Senator along with one or more staff
with their e-mail address. You may phone any Senator at (202)
224-3121. If the e-mail or fax does not go through, call the Senator
at the number above to ask for the correct information. Be sure to
pass any corrections along to American Land Rights.

Block EPA & Corps Wetlands Jurisdiction Over Your Water & Land
*Do You Want The EPA &Corps In Your Backyard?*
Do you want the EPA & Corps jurisdiction over all forest roads?
If Not, Here’s Why You Need The
*“Preserve The Waters Of The US Act” (S-2245)*
Below are action items to protect your water and your land as well as
roads on Federal land. But first, read this:
* *
-----The EPA wants to lift the ban that prevents Washington , DC
bureaucrats from regulating non-navigable waters.
-----Lifting the navigable ban, passed by Congress to protect
families, small businesses and farmers from federal bureaucrats
seizing their water or their land, would devastate economic and
recreational activity as well as small communities across the U.S.
------You need to insist that Congress not remove the requirement set
by Congress in the original Clean Water Act that said the EPA and
Corps *can only regulate “navigable waters”*. The EPA and Corps
want to eliminate the word “navigable” and give the EPA and Corps
jurisdiction over “all waters of the United States and all
activities affecting all waters of the United States .”
-----If the ban is lifted, when it rains, your backyard or farm
becomes a minefield of Washington red tape and taxes.
-----If you’re a farmer, when it rains, your backyard becomes a
bonanza for Washington , DC bureaucrats to go on your property to
force you from doing activities like building a swimming pool,
installing a bird bath, running rainwater away from your home,
irrigating your fields, installing stock watering ponds and many
more.
-----If you’re a suburban homeowner, when it rains, the water in
your backyard allows Washington , DC bureaucrats on your property to
block you from doing basic things without a permit that can cost
thousands of dollars and long delays causing great damage.
-----Congress blocked attempts by former Congressman James Oberstar
(D-MN) and former Senator Russ Feingold (R-MN) from passing the Clean
Water Restoration Act, which would have lifted the “navigable”
ban. As with the EPA and Corp, Oberstar and Feingold tried to remove
the word “navigable” from the Clean Water Act.
-----Despite Congress not changing the law, the Obama EPA and Army
Corps of Engineers are attempting to remove this key protection for
families, small business and farmers by issuing an internal guidance
document to agency bureaucrats telling them it is now OK to regulate
non-navigable waters on people’s property throughout the United
States. The Obama folks seem to care less
about how they are ignoring two Supreme Court decisions.
-----The Preserve The Waters of the US Act (S-2245) would stop
Washington overreach and block any further attempt to issue
“guidance” to agency bureaucrats that says it is OK to regulate
non-navigable water in people’s backyards and farms.
*Preserve the waters of the u.s. Act (S-2245)*
*Purpose:* To preserve existing rights and responsibilities with
respect to waters of the U.S.
* *
*Background:* In May 2011, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
and Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) issued draft guidance on
“Identifying Waters Protected by the Clean Water Act.”
This guidance document, which was sent in final form to OMB on
February 21, 2012, significantly changes and expands what features
are considered protected under the Clean Water Act and makes
substantial additions, such as a first time inclusion of ditches and
other water features that may flow, if at all, only after a heavy
rainfall.
EPA and the Corps received over 230,000 comments from the public on
their guidance, discussing the potential consequences of the draft
guidance to governments, businesses, and landowners. They have not
responded to the comments.
EPA and the Corps estimate that between 2 – 17% percent of
non-jurisdictional determinations under current practice would be
jurisdictional using the expanded tests of the new guidance.[1]
<#_ftn1>
This guidance has clear regulatory consequences and goes far beyond
being simply advisory guidelines.
*The legislation (S-2245) prevents EPA and the Corps from using this
/guidance/ to change legal responsibilities under the Clean Water
Act.*
*-----Regulation through Guidance:* By issuing a guidance document as
opposed to going through the rulemaking process, EPA and the Corps are
bypassing the necessary public outreach required under the
Administrative Procedures Act and failing to fully consider the
legal, economic, and unforeseen consequences of their actions.
* *
*-----Applies to all Clean Water Act (CWA) Programs:* In addition to
the Corps §404 dredge and fill permits, the guidance applies to all
CWA programs including §303 water quality standards, §401 state
water quality certifications, §311 Oil Pollution Act (including
SPCC), and §402 program (including NPDES permits, pesticide general
permit, and storm water).
*-----Increasing Permits: *EPA and the Corps affirm that this
guidance will result in an increase in jurisdictional determinations
that will result in an increased need for permits. In addition to
more Corps §404 permits, State-permitting authorities will be faced
with more NPDES permits and more entities will be subject to CWA
requirements.
*-----Economic and Job Impacts:* Additional regulatory costs
associated with changes in jurisdiction and increases in permits will
erect bureaucratic barriers to economic growth, negatively impacting
farms, small businesses, commercial development, road construction
and energy production, to name a few.
*-----Impact on State on Local Governments:* Changes to the “waters
of the U.S. ” definition may have far-reaching effects and unintended
consequences on a number of state and local programs. The guidance
creates significant unfunded mandates and preempts state and local
authority.
*-----Conflicts with Supreme Court Rulings:* The guidance uses an
overly broad interpretation of the /Rapanos /decision. The effect is
virtually all wet areas that connect in any way to navigable waters
are jurisdictional. Both the plurality opinion and Kennedy rejected
this assertion in /Rapanos/.
* *
*-----Private Property Rights:* Expanding federal control over
intrastate waters will substantially interfere with the ability of
individual landowners to use their property.
* *
*-----Action Items:*
* *
*-----1. It’s critical to get some of the Senators below as
co-sponsors of the Preserve The Waters Of The US Act (S 2245). *You
need to call, fax and e-mail your Senator (s) listed below to urge
them to cosponsor the Preserve The Waters Of The US Act.
-----2. For more information about S 2245 type in to Google the
following search term: Preserve The Waters Of The US Act.
-----3. Please forward this message to at least 10 other people. Your
whole list if possible.
The best thing to do is write a letter with your letterhead and
either fax it or e-mail it to your Senator (s). They don’t like
attachments so call ahead to ask for the staff person who handles the
Clean Water Act and Wetlands issues. Ask for his personal e-mail and
send him your letter.
* *
We’ve listed the fax of each Senator along with one or more staff
with their e-mail address. You may phone any Senator at (202)
224-3121. If the e-mail or fax does not go through, call the Senator
at the number above to ask for the correct information. Be sure to
pass any corrections along to American Land Rights.
Be sure to note that there is an underscore between the first and
last name of each staff person listed below. For example:
