Congress is Dumb in this Area of Thought

 Politics and the EPA

Congress is dumb in this area of thought.

The EPA has stopped the movement of goods on the Ohio River. The EPA was very strong when it was respected as a helpful area of the government. Today it is mostly ignored giving it the power of a new sheet on a bed or a new piece of paper on the hood of my truck.

When the new dams were built on the Ohio River portions of the dams were built to help industry move cargo over the dams during very high elevations at the new dams.

The EPA created a law stopping dredges of placing the dredged material on the banks of the rivers. So where did the dredges place their waste. Well, it was deep water and deep water at the new dams was under the weir. The weir was built to help industry move goods during high water. If you look at the new dams. You will notice that under the pass (the pass is the weir at each dam (Pass meaning, “pass over”)) at each dam is an Island created by dredged material. The islands under these dams have large trees on them making it almost impossible for industry to move cargo over the “Pass”.

Congress is dumb in this area of thought.
