Los Angeles is now requiring builders to put in rain capturing systems so the water doesn’t reach the ocean – to keep from polluting it

In Colorado, you don’t own the rain if it lands on your own property and you can be fined for collecting it.

And don’t forget, federal legislation –  Oberstar-Feingold Clean Water Restoration Act replaces the term 'navigable' from the 1972 Federal Water Pollution Control Act and replacing it with the all inclusive 'waters of the U.S.' (including wetlands, intermittent streams, playa lakes, prairie potholes, sandflats, mudflats, ponds, meadows and sloughs). Reed Hopper, lead attorney in a 2006 landmark Supreme Court decision stated in testimony, ".....this bill pushes the limits of federal power to an extreme not matched by any other law, probably in the history of this country."  Its aim is top-down, command and control of land, water, people and communities. 

Serious environmental insanity
