EPA denies Petition to Restrict Lead Tackle..
25/02/12 02:54 AM

The EPA Denies A Petition To Restrict Lead Tackle: “Science has prevailed. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has denied a petition by the Center for Biological Diversity (CBD)—an anti-sportsmen group—that would have precipitated significant restrictions on lead fishing tackle all over the United States. The CBD wanted the EPA to use the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) to heavily regulate anglers from using tackle they have long used even though science doesn’t support such a measure. The Congressional Sportsmen’s Foundation (CSF) has been, and will continue to, fight such unscientific lead bans and restrictions at the state and federal level.” (Source: Congressional Sportsmen’s Foundation Website) http://www.sportsmenslink.org/node/581
