The CWA definetly needs reform or at least clarification. Private property rights should include protection against neighbors influencing your private property- polluting ones water or air. This needs to extend beyond navigable waterways...that marsh the protects the water supply is important to more than just the land on which it resides.

This protection existed before the creation of the clean water act.

That was the original purpose of the Civil Law Code. Should this hostile neighbor be appraised of the damage they are doing and do nothing to abate their behavior, possible criminal statutes for vandalism, or in a worse case, reckless endangerment, may very well apply.

If you want to control someone Else's private property, you should buy it, then its your choice!
