Interoffice Communication TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJ: John Burns B&J:fir XF:_<\,^^_________ T. G. Grumbles August 2, 1991 RESULTS OF SPECIAL SDA BOARD MEETING OF JULY 31, 1991 VIS1A An agenda for the meeting is attached. Two items were discussed. Discussions and action items from the meeting are summarized below. 1. Senate Bill 1069 - This bill was introduced by Senator Mitchell in May of this year. It is entitled the Lakes Assessment and Protection Act of 1991. Section 8 of the bill, Nutrient Control Initiative, is in essence a national phosphate ban. An SDA summary of the bill is attached. SDA counsel has determined that this bill is going forward and will be hard to stop. Mitchell is a recognized "green" and is building an environmental track record to bolster his presidential aspirations. This bill will probably be rolled into the Clean Water Act reauthorization expected in 1992. Actions 1. Concensus was reached on the need for SDA to fight the bill. 2. A sub-committee was formed to develop a strategy and/or plan of attack and possible compromise positions. Subcommittee members include: FMC, Monsanto, Albright & Wilson, P&G and Colgate. 2. Labeling Legislation and Regulation - There have been initiatives in California and Rhode Island to severely restrict the use of certain terms, i^yj^uding recyclable, reusable, and biodegradable on product labels. California has actually enacted the legislation and is beginning the preliminary stages of enforcement with several SDA members. The SDA legal committee recommended to the Board that SDA litigate the regulation in California. The need in California is more urgent due to the status of the regulation. The basis of the suit would be similar to the principles described in the recent FTC hearings on the same subject. Action 1. The Board approved proceeding with litigation in California. (Colgate was the only vote against this action). VVV 000007405 It should be noted no money exists in the budget for this action. Alan Ward estimates it will cost $50-$100,000. No decision was made on Rhode Island. An attendance list for the meeting is also attached, details on the meeting can be discussed if you wish. Further T. G. Grumbles dlj Attachment bcc: R. D.

The Congress finds that-- 3 (1) freshwater lakes throughout the Nation are 4 a natural resource of outstanding value and impor5 tance, providing vital habitat for fish and wildlife; 6 (2) lakes provide a significant percent of the 7 Nation's drinking water supply, making protection 8 of lake water quality a prudent investment; 9 (3) lakes offer a wide range of recreational op- 10 portunities, including boating and fishing, and are 11 an especially significant resource for swimming and 12 related body contact recreation; 13 (4) lakes are especially vulnerable to water pol14 lution because they trap and store pollutants to a 15 greater degree than other waterbodies; 16 (5) the Environmental Protection Agency re17 ports that 25 percent af lakes are impaired by pollu18 tion and that an additional 20 percent arethreat19 ened by pollution; 20 (6) many States report that water quality con21 ditions in lakes have deteriorated in recent years and 22 studies by the Environmental Protection agency con23 firm this trend; S 1069 IS vvv ooooo^^it 3 1 (7) the Environmental Protection Agency re 2 ports that the most significant and widespread lake 3 water quality problem is excess nutrients which pro 4 mote algal blooms and increase aquatic vegetation; 5 (8) excessive nutrients can diminish recreational 6 and economic values of lakes and lower dissolved ox 7 ygen which is' needed to support fish and other 8 aquatic life; 9 (9) other water pollution problems in lakes in 10 clude high turbidity and siltation, excessive acidity 11 associated with acid rain, pathogens in sewage dis 12 charges, pesticides, organic chemicals, and metals; 13 (10) sources of lake water quality problems in 14 clude discharges of sewage and industrial pollutants, 15 nonpoint sources of pollution associated with urban 16 development and agricultural activities, and natural 17 conditions such as mineral intrusion; and 18 (11) existing efforts to protect the quality of % 19 lakes and control ^sources of pollution in lakes are 20 not adequate and these efforts need to be expanded 21 and strengthened. 22 LAKE QUALITY RESEARCH 23 Sec. 3.
