Happy Anniversary:  The Clean Water Act!  (Oct. 18, 1972)

It was forty years ago today. . . . .    Since 1972, the Clean Water Act has had a huge impact on improving our rivers and waters.  Nationally, it has kept billions of pounds of raw sewage, chemicals and trash out of our waterways.  

 

 

Forwarded from Iowa CCI:  Forty years ago today, both Houses of Congress voted by a nearly 10-1 margin to override President Nixon's veto of the Clean Water Act, enacting landmark legislation to clean our nation’s waters into law.
