Congress Passes Bill To Aid Hudson River Pollution
Washington reports that Rep. Richard Ottinger led final passage of the Hudson River Compact Bill. The measure directs Interior to work with New York and New Jersey on a river basin program, allows optional participation by Vermont Massachusetts and Connecticut, and requires a progress report by July 1 1968. Kennedy defends the bill as a step toward an effective planning agency while Javits objects as unnecessary.
