Tell the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency: Stop the No Protection Policy for America's Waters

Right now, the Clean Water Act - the law that protects our water resources - is under attack. The Bush Administration is attempting to redefine what waters would be protected under the Clean Water Act issuing a series of policies that offer "no protection" for our critical water resources.

This new guidance tells government officials to ignore not only the benefits of protecting water bodies but also the potential problems if they are not protected.

This could mean increased flooding, dirtier and more costly drinking water and more pollution problems in waters across the country.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is accepting public comments until January 21 on a policy that will determine which rivers, lakes, streams and wetlands are fully protected.

If you care about clean water and the future of your drinking water, please take a moment to write a letter to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) now on a bad "no protection" policy guidance that will lead to further pollution and degradation of our water resources.

Please take a minute to personalize the sample letter. If you can include a specific example of what it means to have clean water for drinking, fishing, and outdoor use.
