On the recordJanuary 23, 1996
I believe, as part of the Corrections Day, this piece of legislation is eminently reasonable because it resolves a problem that agricultural interests and endeavors have experienced with the Clean Water Act. H.R. 2567 will modify the way the Clean Water Act applies to constructed agricultural drains, recognizing that this law was never intended to bring the quality of agricultural runoff to the level of a pristine stream. I am pleased to be a cosponsor of H.R. 2567. I urge the adoption of this commonsense legislation, and, Mr. Speaker, I pause again and make note of the commonsense consensus in this Chamber on this act, on this corrections exercise.
