Section 4: General Subject: Supreme Court & Wetlands Msg# 1187638

Theres a few states supplementing USACE regional determinations and assessments with their own.
The court changed the interpretation of adjacent to adjoining. That one word will affect more than 50% of our current wetlands. Many states aren’t willing to roll the dice on federal regulations protecting their waters. Other states will see this as an opportunity to weaken protections. As I stated in my first post, this won’t simplify the permitting process, it just adds more layers. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: How does a ruling at the federal level affect or create 49 new differing regulatory jurisdictions? The Sacketts cause of action was against the federal EPA. And the ruling was against the EPA's authority to regulate a wetland that was not contingent to a body of water. There is a wetland of about an acre adjacent to my property about 100 feet from a gut that my neighbors attempted to fill despite my advice that they couldn't do so. Some concerned citizen out for a walk in the neighborhood reported the piles of wood chips collected to be spread on the land and reported it. The MD State inspector gave them a limited amount of time to dispose of the chips or face legal consequences. Do you think that situation would change because of the Court's ruling? I'd like to see that mud hole filled. |
