The Problem With The Stream Rules: Video

The Lake George Park Commission is scheduled to say something at their May meeting this week, regarding their proposed stream rules.

I took this video a few weeks ago which demonstrates the loophole which I have been talking about.

The proposed regulations don’t accomplish what they set out to accomplish in so far as they exempt State, County and Town highway crews from cutting drainage ditches allowing salt and road runoff to flow directly into streams along their highway right of ways. The rules will effectively take 5000 acres of private property off the tax rolls but will do nothing to stop this.
