An Attempt at Clearing the Muddied Waters of the United States

Abstract

Water affects a large portion of our daily lives, dictating where we live, what we eat, and ultimately what we drink. It should come as no surprise, then, that it is important that the quality of the water we rely on should be protected. Although Congress’s intent was to do just that, what it may have done was open the floodgates to jurisdictional overreach and mixed interpretations.
