Barbara Boxer, Chuck Schumer, and other Democractic Senators block Donald Schregardus, due to the Federal investigation of the Ohio EPA which he headed, for non-enforcement of the Clean Water Act. Schumer also wants to know Schregardus’ plans for acid rain enforcement in general. We speak with John Coequyt, Senior Analyst of the Environmental Working Group, and Marilyn Wall, board member of the Ohio Citizen Action, and Conservation Chair for the Sierra Club.
