Under existing law, San Diego can get a waiver, and I think you are making an excellent case for that waiver. But if this bill becomes law, places like Santa Monica Bay, which should not be excused from secondary treatment, would be disadvantaged. You are taken care of, but the bill, without the Pallone amendment, disadvantages Los Angeles and other communities around this country where good science would indicate that we ought to have the secondary treatment." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
