Thanks for allowing comments

 I have witnessed and have been concerned for many many years, for not only the huge areas of forests cut for development in our rural lands but also the runoffs associated with those clearcuts. These clearcuts are the result of developers and the developers are then in fact the loggers.

 Once the lands have been developed (I feel their degraded) the need for runoff protection starts then??

 The so called "developers" need to leave the trees be, or PAY for their degradation to the highest degree... starting with those chainsaws!

 Please pass "sound" environmental runoff standards for ALL waterways!!
