1) TCWN WORKING FOR YOU! Water Quality Standards Update
TCWN appreciates the support of the many organizations and individuals
who have attended public meetings, submitted written comments, and
contacted Water Quality Control Board members to voice their support
for the proposed antidegradation rules. However, our work isn't
finished yet. The Water Quality Control Board will be meeting on
June 24 in Nashville. At this meeting, it is likely that the Board
will be voting on whether or not to approve the new rules. We know
that industry opposition is very strong, and we need your help to
ensure that all of our hard work doesn't get overturned. We need
to continue to send a strong message to the Water Quality Control
Board that there are citizens, businesses, and communities in Tennessee
that depend on and value clean water and that the proposed antidegradation
rules are not only good policy and good government but they are
legally required as part of the Clean Water Act. Please make an
effort to attend the meeting on June 24 to demonstrate your support
for protecting our state's high quality waters. If you would like
additional information on this issue or how you can get involved,
please email [email protected]
2) PUBLIC PARTICIPATION OPPORTUNITY: Transit Plan Regional Meetings
The Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) has begun work
on "Transit for Tennessee 2025," a comprehensive study
of public transit in Tennessee over the next 22 years. The statewide
public transit plan will establish a vision and a series of goals
for transit in Tennessee in 2025, including the goal of doubling
transit ridership. TDOT wants to hear from you! What kind of public
transit will the state have in 2025? Will the elderly continue to
have transportation? How does urban sprawl and suburbanization affect
transit use? How will we pay for new and better transit service?
Come tell TDOT what you think! Each of the meetings listed below
is an opportunity to find out what has been accomplished in the
plan so far and tell TDOT what your vision for transit is for 2025.
(All meetings have the same agenda and presentation.)

3) PUBLIC PARTICIPATION OPPORTUNITY: Public Hearing on SR-840 Permits
in Williamson County
The Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation, Division
of Water Pollution Control will hold a public hearing on Thursday,
June 5, 2003 at 6:00 P. M. CDT at Fairview High School, 2595 Fairview
Blvd, Fairview, Tennessee, 37062. The purpose of the public hearing
is to solicit public comments regarding an application by Tennessee
Department of Transportation (TDOT) for Aquatic Resource Alteration
Permits pursuant to the Tennessee Water Quality Control Act of 1977
and §401 Water Quality Certifications pursuant to the federal
Clean Water Act (Permit Number NRS02.350) for the proposed construction
of 6.43 miles of SR-840 from southwest of SR-100 to west of Bending
Chestnut Road in Williamson County, Tennessee.
TDOT is seeking permits that would authorize stream and wetlands
crossings along the proposed alignment. These crossings would include
Copperas Branch, White Oak Branch, South Harpeth Creek, Kelly Creek,
unnamed tributaries of the South Harpeth River and Turnbull Creek.
Impacts to all waters would be in headwaters in the vicinity of
the Duck/Harpeth River watershed divide.
A Joint Public Notice (P/N 02-75) was issued by the U.S. Army Corps
of Engineers on November 8, 2002 concerning the proposed project.
That notice can be reviewed via the internet at: http://www.orn.usace.army.mil/cof/notices/02-75.pdf
A previous public hearing was held in Williamson County on January
14, 2003. Issues that arose during the first public hearing concerning
the legibility of diagrams contained in the original notice, failure
to provide written notice to interested parties, and the water quality
status of certain waters resulted in a decision by the division
to issue, concurrently, a second Public Notice (PN#03-30) of the
proposed permits and this notice for a second public hearing.
Persons wishing to comment on the proposed project are invited
to deliver oral or written comment at the public hearing. The hearing
officer will limit all testimony to relevant water quality issues
and may limit testimony in the interest of time, however, all persons
desiring to speak will be afforded an opportunity to do so. The
public is also invited to submit comments in writing to the Division
at the address printed below. The comments must be received by close
of business on June 9, 2003. After considering all public comments,
a final permit decision and a notice of the Division's determinations
will be announced. The permit application and supporting documentation
are available for review at the Division office during business
hours at the following address:

5) NEWS: U.S. Report Faults Efforts to Track Water Pollution
The computer system used by the Environmental Protection Agency
to track and control water pollution is obsolete, full of faulty
data and does not take into account thousands of significant pollution
sources, according to a new government report. Efforts to modernize
the program have been mismanaged for several years, said the report,
issued last week by the E.P.A.'s inspector
general. While the cost to fix the problem has been soaring, the
amount of money dedicated to the project has been shrinking. The
new system was supposed to come online this month, but because of
its many problems it will be at least three years before the agency
and the states can properly manage the enormous system of permits
that is the basic tool for enforcing the Clean Water Act. The report
is the latest in a series of investigations over the years into
the law's enforcement, many of them severely critical of the E.P.A.
This time, the inspector general's office found that because of
continuing mismanagement, "the future viability" of the
system of permits "may be endangered."
The flaws in the system and the delays in fixing it are jeopardizing
one of the E.P.A.'s main new water pollution control strategies,
which calls for granting new permits only after considering
how much pollution is already flowing into a watershed. Without
comprehensive data, that approach is next to impossible. Eighteen
states use the system as their primary tool for enforcing the federal
law, a responsibility that is often handled by state governments.
The cost of modernizing the system is relatively small for a federal
project - less than $14 million as of two years ago, according to
the report. But the report said that the E.P.A. Office of Enforcement
and Compliance Assurance in its first analysis had "greatly
understated the costs to finish the project." The report said
that the Office of Enforcement and Compliance Assurance had only
two-thirds of the money needed to complete the project, which is
scheduled for September 2006 if the financing sought in next year's
fiscal budget is approved.

6) NEWS: River Network Announces Second Year of RiverSmart, Nation's
Largest Campaign for Clean Rivers, Drinking Water
Swiss Re, a leading reinsurer, and River Network, a leading US conservation
organization, announced they are launching for the second consecutive
year, RiverSmart, the nation's largest public education campaign
for clean rivers and drinking water.
The RiverSmart campaign is aimed at dispelling America's misperceptions
regarding river pollution and its effects on clean drinking water,
fish and wildlife. Through a three-year television, radio and print
advertising campaign and a national outreach effort, RiverSmart
encourages individuals to change everyday behaviors to ensure healthy
rivers and clean drinking water. River Network has established a
Web site for the multi-year campaign at
http://www.riversmart.org.

7) NEWS: Georgia Antidegradation Decision
A Georgia state court recent ruled that regulators were required
by the Clean Water Act's antidegradation policy to demonstrate that
discharges that degrade a waterbody's water quality are necessary
to issue a Clean Water Act discharge permit.
In Terence D. Hughey, et al. v. Environmental Protection Division,
Georgia Department of Natural Resources and Gwinnett County, environmentalists
charged that the agency violated antidegradation provisions by issuing
a discharge permit without showing that it was
necessary to support important economic or social development.

8) NEWS: Bill Introduced to Provide $30 Million For Research Into
Harmful Algal
Blooms
Legislation that would provide about $30 million per year on research
to better respond to and control the problems caused by harmful
algal blooms was introduced April 30. Rep. Vernon Ehlers (R-Mich.),
chairman of the House Science Subcommittee on Environment, Technology
and Standards, introduced the Harmful Algal Bloom and Hypoxia Research
Amendments Act of 2003 (H.R. 1856) to reauthorize and strengthen
a law with similar goals enacted in 1998. Ehlers' subcommittee heard
testimony March 13 on the problem associated with harmful algal
blooms (HABs) in both marine and freshwater ecosystems. A companion
bill (S. 247) was introduced in the Senate Jan. 29 by Sens. Olympia
Snowe (R-Maine) and John Breaux (D-La.). Unlike the 1998 law, which
only addressed the problems of HABs in marine and coastal waters,
the bill introduced by Ehlers would also address those in freshwater.

9) ACTION: Endorse the Clean Water Authority Restoration Act
The Clean Water Network is asking all of its members and friends
to endorse the Clean Water Authority Restoration Act of 2003 (H.R.
962 and S. 473). CWN's goal is at least 1,000 groups signed-on in
support of the bill. These endorsements are vital for gaining co-sponsors
and votes,
by showing Congress members that organizations in their own state
and districts support the bill.
The Clean Water Authority Restoration Act addresses the 2001 US
Supreme Court SWANCC decision, in which a 5-4 majority ruled that
Congress did not intend Clean Water Act protections to extend to
so-called "isolated" waters solely because they are used
as migratory bird habitat. The bill would make it clear that the
Act does cover such waters.
CWN's message to the administration and members of Congress is:
we must maintain the historical level of federal protection for
US waters.
1. The Bush administration and the agencies must not move forward
with the proposed rulemaking that would eliminate Clean Water Act
protections for many of the nation's streams, ponds, wetlands and
other waters.
2. EPA and the Army Corps of Engineers must rescind their January
15, 2003 guidance memo on the scope of the Clean Water Act, because
it goes well beyond the Supreme Court's ruling in the SWANCC case
and fails to protect waters that are still covered by the Clean
Water Act.
3. Members of Congress should co-sponsor the Clean Water Authority
Restoration Act (H.R. 962 and S. 473) to reaffirm Congress' original
intent in 1972 to protect all waters of the U.S., and prevent future,
unwarranted attacks on the scope of the Clean Water Act.
To endorse the Clean Water Authority Restoration Act, please fill
out the form below by Friday, June 6, and email it to [email protected]
or fax it to 202-289-1060. Contact Ryan Hamilton if you have any
questions at (202) 289-2421.

10) EVENT: Middle Tennessee Environmental Forum
The next Middle Tennessee Regional Environmental Forum will be June
10, 2003, 5-7 pm, in the auditorium of the Nashville Public Library
(main/downtown branch). Sign-in/refreshments will begin at 5:00
pm in the foyer outside the library auditorium, with the formal
part of the meeting agenda starting at 5:30 sharp. Please mark your
calendars now and plan to attend!
This second Forum gathering will focus on the two issues that received
the most votes at our first meeting (March 6) in response to the
question, "What are the Most Important Environmental Issues
In Middle Tennessee" - namely, "Sprawl" (aka, Growth/Development);
and Water Quality. Specifically, we want to examine the relationship
between these two issues. The meeting will begin with two short
(15-20 minute) informative presentations that will look at both
the scope of these two issues in Middle Tennessee and how they are
related, as well as some possible strategies/solutions. This will
be followed by a facilitated panel discussion and interactive Q&A
session with all participants. Both the presenters and panelists
will represent a wide range of expertise in pertinent areas including
water quality/watershed management, growth/development, and regional
planning.
A detailed agenda is still being developed and will follow shortly;
for now, mark your calendars for June 10, and feel free to invite
anyone else you know who might be interested in these issues and/or
in participating in the Forum. If you have any questions or comments,
