NY Farmers to Chesapeake Bay: "Fuggetta bout it"

NY Farmers wonder why they are being asked to sacrifice to clean up the Chespeake Bay:

"As a headwater state, it is unfair to expect New York to dedicate taxpayer dollars, staff, and other substantial municipal and state resources to reduce nutrient loading to the bay when New York reaps no benefit from the bay," the letter stated. "New York receives no economic or recreational benefit from bay restoration efforts for its waters in the watershed that EPA already acknowledges are already clean."
