Does anybody know where the two differ? Or do they do the same dang thing?

My guess is they both take billions of our dollars only to hinder our ability to make them back.

Yup. I realize the purpose of one or the other, but the second was just dreamed up to invent more government jobs.
Mark, how did yesterday go?

Mark, how did yesterday go?


Darn C-19 got in the way of travel logistics so we watched a bunch of it yesterday on YouTube.
It was very, very well attended for a Covid time such as this. My brother from NC, who was there, said the crowd really cheered when a message from President Trump was read.

I was quite disappointed to see that none of the major news outlets mentioned about the National Mall being filled with the nations' religious... right in front of the nation's capital. All ages. All colors too. I wonder, if riots would have broken out, would they have brought us that news?

We live in a great land of historic individual liberty. Of that there can be no worthy debate.
We pray God continues to bless us as a nation.

Blessings Gary,
Mark

I'm sorry you couldn't make it. No surprise it wasn't covered. It was Christians so they can't give that exposure.
At least there weren't rioters. That is good.

EPA is federal, DEQ is state run. For the states that I deal with, Nebraska is the only one that calls its environmental division DEQ. Here in Iowa its just a division of the DNR.

Stuff like gas station leaks and hog confinment spills will be covered by your DEQ. Big cleanup projects that receive federal funding are usually headed by EPA.
BTW, in my experience the EPA field people are surprisingly easy to work with.

The Department of Environmental Quality in Nebraska is no longer called the DEQ. It's been merge with the Department of Energy. I fill out forms every week for sending in sample at the plant I work at. It is now the Department of Environmental and Energy....NDEE. Kinda funny, when they show up every now and then their vehicles still have NDEQ stickers on the sides. In the past the federal EPA people have showed up with the state NDEE personal, once in a blue moon, to inform us of what they (EPA) can over rule on the NDEE rules. The proposed regulations before Trump were gonna be costly to implement. When elected many were put on the backburner... gave the people some breathing room. Time will tell what's next as far a regulations !

LMBO- I would accuse you guys of killing me with kindness but I think I have you (at least) figured out Mark June. You know my inner jerk is right below the surface and thank you for leading by example. It is becoming a lost art!
