Ben Cardin actually said...

"Stormwater is the Nation's largest source of water pollution."

"Senator Cardin has got a bill before you that I hope you pay attention to because it is an extraordinarily important approach to getting this waterway, and all national waterways, under control."

"What we are suggesting to you is that what we need is a national policy statement in the bill about how highways need to be designed to control water pollution."

"We need an energy policy in this country. Transportation can play a key role."
