So, now the EPA is NOT going to regulate farm dust?

So they claim. Watch 'em like a hawk.

EPA tries to put to rest 'myth' of farm dust rules

The EPA is trying to put to rest what it calls a "myth" that it is going to crack down on farm dust.


In letters to two senators last week, Administrator Lisa Jackson said the agency won't expand its current air quality standards to include dust created by agriculture.


Republicans and some farm-state Democrats have used the issue on the campaign trail, arguing that the EPA is set to penalize farmers for everyday activities. Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain said in a recent debate that the agency is "out of control" and was preparing to regulate dust.

Just recently, the tune was different.

Is it just me, or are (un-Constitutional) federal agencies piling on the stupid micromanagement lately? They tried to make CDLs mandatory for anyone driving a tractor. They try to make it illegal for children to work on their parent's farms. Regulate dust. Register every head of cattle or chicken on Earth.

It's long past time to shut down the EPA.
