Congress Exempts Recreational Boaters from Waste Permit Requirements
P/D/C Sandy Pierog has received the following letter from Congressman Joseph Courtney regarding our efforts to exempt recreational boaters from the proposed Waste Permit Requirements.
Dear Ms. Pierog,
Knowing your concern regarding the proposed waste permit requirements for boaters, I am pleased to inform you that Congress took the necessary action to exempt recreational boaters and maintain the status quo . This is good news for all avid boaters in Connecticut, including the many like you who contacted my office.
For 34 years, the EPA exempted recreational boats from the same permitting requirements for larger, commercial vessels as required by the Clean Water Act. However, in 2006, the lack of regulation for the ballast discharge of recreational boats resulted in a US District Court ruling against the EPA exemptions. As a result, exemptions for the discharge of waste resulting in the normal operations of boating were thrown out, and as of September 2008 a permit system was to be implemented. It should be clear that vessels are already well-regulated under the Clean Vessel Act, the Oil Pollution Act, and the Clean Water Act to prevent the discharge of sewage, oil, trash and plastics. However, a permitting system, which would be costly and burdensome, has never been implemented. The Department of Environmental Protection in Connecticut has found more success in educating boaters and offering ways to properly dispose of waste.
I originally cosponsored the Recreational Boating Act (H.R. 2550), introduced by Representative Gene Taylor (D-MS), which would reverse the Court's decision to require a new and stricter permit system on small recreational boats by September 2008. On June 22, 2008 the House passed a bill that originated in the Senate, S. 2766, which would extend the same exemptions for recreational vessels. This bill was signed into law by President George Bush on July 29, 2008.
Please do not hesitate to contact me in the future. For more information on my views on other issues or to see what I have been working on in Congress, please feel free to visit my official website at www.house.gov/courtney and sign up for my e-newsletter.
Sincerely,
JOSEPH COURTNEY

Marjorie H. Loveland passed away unexpectedly Saturday January 5th, 2007
Marjorie H. Loveland, 82, of Old Saybrook, beloved wife of Hayden F. Loveland, passed away unexpectedly Saturday (January 5, 2007), at Middlesex Memorial Hospital surrounded by her loving family. Marjorie was born June 4, 1925 in Hartford, daughter of Henry Bailey House and Mabel Burditt House. Marjorie was raised in West Hartford and graduated from Hall High School and the Hartford College for Women. She also attended Massachusetts Institute of Technology. She was employed by the Connecticut General Life Insurance Company for 26 years, retiring in 1987. She and Hayden then spent many years in Old Saybrook, pursuing their many interests. They were both actively involved in boating activities as members of the United States Power Squadrons. She loved to swim at Great Hammock Beach, even braving the cold waters of May and October. Her many talents gave her and others great joy – her glorious flower garden frequently stopped traffic on Ferry Road. She provided a window into her spirit through her beautiful watercolor paintings. Her granddaughters reaped the benefits of her sewing and embroidery skills. "Muddy" was a devoted grandmother, always ready to attend a grandchild's concert or crew regatta. She was especially devoted to her church, where she was a member of the choir. She enjoyed the informal monthly gatherings of her alumnae friends of Hartford College for Women. She was predeceased by two brothers, Arthur B. House and Richard B. House. In addition to her husband, Marjorie is survived by her sister, Janet House Bassett of Rocky Hill, her three sons and their wives; Kenneth and Karen Loveland of West Hartford, Kevin and Maryann Loveland of Farmington and R. Scott and Mary-Jo Loveland of Farmington. She is also survived by eight beloved grandchildren; Katherine Altman and her husband David of Framingham, MA, Eric Loveland and his wife Athina of Newington, Bonnie Loveland and her companion Pam Barnhart of Sunbury, PA, Kristen Loveland of New York City, Brian Loveland of Worcester, MA, and Andrew, Brendan, and Emily Loveland of Farmington. She is also survived by several loving and attentive nieces and nephews. The funeral and burial at Fairview Cemetery in West Hartford will be private. There will be a memorial service celebrating the life of Marjorie on Saturday, January 12, at 1 p.m. at Deep River Congregational Church with the Rev. Timothy Haut officiating. Taylor & Modeen Funeral Home, West Hartford has care of the arrangements. Memorial contributions may be made to the Deep River Congregational Church, PO Box 246, Deep River, CT 06417.
