Major environmental bills defeated in 1970 legislature
In Sacramento the 1970 session saw several environmental laws fail amid clashes with tax and election issues. Bills to curb coastline overdevelopment, remove lead from gasoline, ban smog engines, and halt DDT died in Senate committees, while other measures survived or advanced on fines, public access to beaches, and a 250 million dollar sewage bond. Public access to beaches was pledged and a 60 million dollar lake and river recreation bond was slated for November.
