Jim Gulliford Quotations

We're looking for large payoffs. But they're done incrementally.

Our message to Iowa cattle producers has been clear. Producers were given a five-year enforcement moratorium to fully comply with the law, and we expect them to meet the commitments they made when they entered into the agreement. When the Iowa Plan ends, EPA will enforce the Clean Water Act against feedlots that are polluting the nation's waters.

The partnerships formed through this collaborative will enable us to leverage resources to reduce diesel emissions. We will be able to share technology and pool finances for greater reductions than are possible through individual efforts.

This action sends an important message to the construction industry that they must properly control erosion, so they do not damage our nation's waters.
