Last week, almost six months after the horrific Bastrop, TX wildfire that burned over 1600 homes, the EPA announced that all debris removal had to be supervised by EPA-approved biologists because such removal might impinge on the habitat of the endangered Houston toad.
Contractors rebuilding homes are having their progress impeded by idiotic rules such as having to pick up all materials at the end of every day for fear that the toad might crawl into them during the night and be injured. Needless to say, homeowners are furious that after all they’ve been through, the federal government seems much more worried about the toad than their families.
There are no examples of live Houston toads, if they’ve ever existed, after a fire that left homes with nothing but ashes on a slab. Someone reports they heard some “chorusing” after recent rains, however, one suspects it might have been reported by one of the FOUR approved biologists who will be getting paychecks for years while hundreds of homeowners wait for EPA approval to rebuild their homes on their land,
If Texans put up with this mistreatment, Davy Crocket and William Travis died for nothing. This is not a free country.
The EPA has to go. GO!
I had not heard about this. Thank you so much for posting that information.
Your post of local experience with the EPA is typical of that which needs to be known across the entire country by every American.
The MSM isn’t on the side of the people of this Nation, therefore such stories are relegated to first hand experiences posted on the New Media at as many of the well read sources as possible so the message gets out what is really happening at the hands of these radical Leftist lunatics in control today.
While they worry about this toad they will destroy a whole desert to put in solar panels.
The effects of the EPA have a direct bearing on the targets of Bracko Bama.
