Crackdown on Pollution

The federal  Environment Protect Agency (EPA)has finally taken steps to check pollution. It has started with Chesapeake Bay and has threatened five mid- Atlantic states with new rules and regulations.
The move by the Environmental Protection Agency is part of the biggest shakeup in the 27-year history of the Chesapeake cleanup. Earlier, when states failed to meet deadlines to cut pollution by 2000 and 2010, nothing happened.http://www.cleveland.com/nation/index.ssf/2010/09/epa_threatens_states_over_slow.html The problems that the state have been facing are efforts to control agricultural runoff, nutrient pollution from poultry and other livestock operations, and storm water runoff need improvements.http://www.delawareonline.com/article/20100925/NEWS02/9250347
