Pollution exemption urged for farmers
The Senate Public Works Committee approved an administration plan to exempt farming ranching logging and mining from a phase of the federal water pollution control program. The 10-3 vote backed a normal operations exemption for dredging and filling around rivers streams and wetlands and shifts permitting to the EPA for smaller streams. The move faces opposition from environmental groups and could return to the House for a compromise.
