[@kathrinekerns8398]

I am in Indiana, but, I listened to your report on U Tube. It is a concern for all of Americans. We need desperately to have clean water, and to protect our native habitat. To totally show disregard for any of the earth science is dangerous. And to undo the EPA is just craziness. I think moving forward with clean energy alternatives is going to be the best choice for everyone especially for future generations. The oil has caused enough damage and it is better to try to learn how to do without it.
