The mess in WV brings this home… Anytime you allow industry near water, at some point in the future there will be an accident…. Prevention as opposed to monitoring, is the only way to insure no such event occurs
The proposed legislation will be incremental. It will be minor in scope. It’s design is to pit the same groups that combined to apply political muscle to push forward both Newark’s contaminating power plant, and the Millsboro chicken processing plant, towards next applying political pressure to diminish and eventually abolish the Coastal Act. It will be pushed along as good for jobs, taxes, and energy benefits. However, none of those will receive benefit. Instead it is designed in a way to open the coastal area to development. The benefits will all go to developers, Surprised? Developers as we know are very reputable human beings and would never break a law, would never allow any facility to be built which might pollute, in order to make hundreds of millions of extra dollars.
The Coastal Act is Delaware. If it goes, Delaware again becomes the cess-pool is was before environmental laws were ever dreamed.
As went Army Creek, so goes the entire Delaware coastline….
Time to get busy now… Stir the pot so nothing sticks to the bottom later.
