(4) It is time to complete the task set forth in
1972.
(5) Nonpoint sources are best addressed on a
watershed basis by State and local and public and
private organizations and by citizens. The Federal
Government is a contributor, and must accept its
share of responsibility, but the prime authority and
most effective means are the province of State and
local entities. The Federal Government’s financial,
technical, and human resources must be harnessed
to assist in this effort.
(6) The right to private action on private land
is circumscribed by the responsibility not to destroy
natural resources which are the heritage of all Amer-
icans. Pollution of the Nation’s waters is not a right,
inviolate; nor is it free. Private pollution imposes
heavy public costs; denies rights, in terms of human
and aquatic health, clean water for industry, and
recreation; and impoverishes the enjoyment of these
rights by future generations.
(7) Section 319 of the Federal Water Pollution
Control Act, the Coastal Zone Act Reauthorization
Amendments of 1990, and the water quality pro-
grams of the Department of Agriculture have laid
the basis for and offer the supporting means to con-
trol and prevent nonpoint sources of pollution. Fur-
ther legislation and resources are necessary to com-
plete the task in a timely fashion.
(8) To the extent the Federal Government con-
tinues to contribute financially to the water pollution
control effort, those resources should be divided be-
tween point and nonpoint sources on a basis com-
mensurate with each aspect of the problem.
(c) PURPOSES.—The purposes of this Act are—
(1) to prevent where possible, and reduce else-
where, nonpoint sources of pollution which, 2 dec-
ades after enactment of the Federal Water Pollution
Control Act, are the major cause of the degradation
of the Nation’s waters;
(2) to control and eliminate nonpoint sources of
pollution on Federal lands by creating a Federal
program and placing it directly under the President;
(3) to provide State and, to the extent possible,
local government and nongovernmental entities with
the means and responsibility for preventing nonpoint
source pollution within their jurisdictions;
(4) to encourage and reward compliance by will-
ing land owners and operators, while assuring that
they will not suffer competitive disadvantages from
those who refuse to comply with sound pollution pre-
vention practices;
(5) to enable citizens to participate more di-
rectly in cleansing the Nation’s waters by providing
individual land owners and operators and other citi-
zens of a watershed the opportunity to participate in
designing their watershed implementation program
and through establishment of quality-assured citizen
monitoring programs to complement on-going State
monitoring efforts;
(6) to address water quality problems on a wa-
tershed basis; and
(7) to assure and enhance the health and well-
being of current and future generations of citizens,
business and industry, as well as the natural flow,
habitat structure, and biodiversity of the full range
of aquatic ecosystems.
