EPA Congressional Testimony on Wetlands Regulation: Oct. 2000    (.S. Environmental Protection Agency)    PDF Version
Two reports, one from the EPA and another from the Washington University Law School, that discuss wetlands regulations at length, providing information about many high profile cases that contrast markedly from their portrayals in ultra-conservative forums.
A July 1995 report to Congress by Sen. John Glenn presenting the results of an investigation by the Governmental Affairs Committee into allegations of regulatory abuse which concluded that nearly every reported incident was either grossly exaggerated or urban legend. Glenn headed the Committee at the time.
Wetlands Enforcement & John Pozsgai    (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency)
The John Pozsgai Case    (The Raymond Profitt Foundation)
Two Reports that discuss the case of John Pozsgai, a Buck County, PA businessman who was arrested and fined for repeated wetlands destruction violations and who has since become a patron saint for Property Rights extremists. These reports were drawn largely from county records and eyewitness information. Not surprisingly, they differ markedly from portrayals of the incident in ultra-conservative forums.
