Nixon Seeks Funds for Water Pollution Control
The Nixon administration proposed a $000 million grant program to states and local communities for sewerage plants. The Water Quality Act of 1965 envisions $1 billion in total spending this year, but funding has rarely met that level since 1967. Conservationists had urged higher appropriations, but an increase to $600 million by the Appropriations Committee undermined their push as a Health and Welfare report highlighted millions drinking dirty water.
