The EPA, like most federal agencies in accordance with the Constitution, is supposed to concern itself with national and/or interstate issues. But the EPA is intruding into the smallest local and private property issues -- with the most ridiculous of pretenses. The worst examples include the EPA intruding itself into issues such as a home-made pond on an individual's property! If that's not bad enough, they threaten these people with ruinous fines and deny administrative remedies. The EPA has strayed far away from it's Constitutional role when they step down hard on small private property owners well outside any reasonable interpretation of the laws.
