Kay Bailey Hutchison: “I wonder if we have even talked about the impact on other governments…”

On the recordJuly 11, 1995

I wonder if we have even talked about the impact on other governments of Federal regulations, such as our small towns across America. Our small towns are reeling from regulations that require them to go into their water supply and test for items that do not even relate to their part of the country. I just wanted to ask the Senator from Georgia if he does not think that the lower threshold is also going to be a boon to the smaller towns that might not have the ability to have legal staffs that can come up and talk to Federal agencies?
