Because all lifeforms on earth rely on water. Pollute the water & the lifeforms that depend on that water will become sick and may die. Thus if this happens you will have a crisis on your hands & no matter how much money you make, your money won't save you, because you cannot drink money. |

Please keep the clean water act in effect for future generations.
If we don`t then future generations will have to spend millions of tax payers hard earned dollars, for something that was once free! |

The clean water act helps ensure that water that is used will be clean and safe from harmful pollutants. By ensuring this, we do not have to fear chemical poisonings when we used the water or when we eat organisms from the water. |

.>Save the Clean Water Act
Dear Senator/Representative,
I strongly oppose the Bush administration's efforts to eliminate Clean Water Act protections for many of the nation's waters, including streams, wetlands, small ponds and other waters.
I am writing to urge you to express your opposition to any weakening of the Clean Water Act’s regulations and to sign on to the “Dear Colleague” letter to President Bush that is being circulated in the House by Representatives Dingell, Saxton, Oberstar, and Leach, and in the Senate by Senators Feingold, Jeffords, and Boxer asking the President to discontinue this rulemaking and to uphold the Clean Water Act.
The EPA's and Corps of Engineers' January 15 Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking is an attempt to limit the Clean Water Act's jurisdiction over waters that are important to public health and the environment. This proposal is in direct conflict with the original intent of the Clean Water Act -- to maintain the chemical, physical and biological integrity of all waters of the United States.
Limiting the scope of the Clean Water Act will have devastating effects in our community and around the country. Removing essential federal safeguards against destruction and degradation of our waters will result in more polluted streams, rivers, lakes, and coastal waters, place community water supplies at risk, destroy wetlands important for controlling flooding, and injure wildlife including endangered and threatened species, 43 percent of which rely on wetlands for survival.
Please sign the “Dear Colleague” letter from members of Congress to tell the Bush administration not to go forward with any rulemaking proposal that would limit the scope of the Clean Water Act and hinder the ability of communities nationwide to safeguard their valuable water resources.
Sincerely,
