Brian Bilbray: “There is no slippery slope. What it says is those that have proven scientifically there is no reasonable reason to think…”

On the recordMay 11, 1995
There is no slippery slope. What it says is those that have proven scientifically there is no reasonable reason to think there is environmental damage that is going to occur should not have to go through a process of having to go through EPA and the Federal bureaucracy. I think you would agree if we in the 1970's were told by scientists there is no foreseeable damage or foreseeable problem with water quality, this law would never have been passed. In San Diego the scientists have said that, and I think you need to reflect it.
