Storms draining lots of fresh water in Bay

[ronaultmtd]

Love those guys at Backyard Boats- Drove down in the rain to Woodbridge this morning- and it was exactly 10 minutes just like he said- installed a new rudder pin, nothing else needed- while I was there he checked my Mirage Drive- said it was perfect (and has the turbo fins) and I was on my way- I bought a spare pin...and it has the larger sail rudder- so all I need now is to install a fish finder combo and I am done- not much to rig on this tank- my banana yellow Ocean Prowler is named the "Wet Dream" and I am going to name this shit-colored brown-green kayak the "Ugly Duckling."

And it is official-TS Lee dumped more rain than Hurricane Agnes- Suzy Q set new record river crested above Agnes by 18 inches-

Do you think anyone will ever listen to our environmental scientists who tell us how we are killing our planet? Smithfield Packing Company was the largest water polluter in Virginia- when the EPA fined them and the State of Virginia for failing to enforce EPA laws they moved their massive hog farms to NC and to Mexico- remember the first North American case of Asian Avian flu was traced back to a worker on their farm in Mexico? Fertilizers, effluents, sewage, etc. You name it- it gets dumped into the rivers and into the Ocean-

I agree- You would think the EDF or Chesapeake Bay Association or Sierra Club would file suit in federal court for enforcement action- but no one has- not the Waterman's Association nor the seafood industry-

The CBF and others threatened to sue EPA back in '08:

As of earlier this year, funding for new EPA regs was still up in the air:
