Gov. Schwarzenegger Issues Statement Following Green Cities California Unveiling of Best Practices Web Site

The “Green Governor” of California has been sued in Federal court for negligence for not implementing technology that removes 100% of all pollutants from every home or business and he has on legal ground to stand on. Below is an email I sent to his Secretary of Natural Resources for the State of California, this is a “precedent setting, history making” case that is bigger than you can image. Go to http://www.reclamator.net and read Murphy v. Schwarzenegger US District Court 9/16/09 then the email below and you will see what is happening.

Secretary Chrisman,

My name is Jeff Lind and I had the privilege of addressing you at the Ocean Protection Council meeting September 17th in San Francisco. I, like you, was raised on a farm and cattle ranch and have a deep love of mother earth and all our natural resources.

I am pleading with you to give the matter I am bringing to your attention your immediate action or it will become financially devastating and politically embarrassing for the Governor and the State of California.

It is a matter of public record for all to see that we have revolutionary technology that removes 100% of the pollution including disease carrying pathogens, carcinogenic nitrosamine pollutants, endocrine disruptors and acidic discharges at-source from all wastewater, thereby reclaiming that “new water” for 100% beneficial reuse applications and reducing the demand on the public drinking water supplies by the equivalent amount. Consequently, no water is “wasted” and no “wastewater” ever leaves the person’s source. When implemented it immediately stops multi-media pollution from migrating into our atmosphere, aquifers and oceans thereby restoring their integrity, making them clean and stops the drought conditions.

It is a matter of federal law, and has been since July 1, 1973, that the “best available demonstrated control technology” (BADCT) is required, pursuant to the Clean Water Act pretreatment requirements, to be implemented at EVERY [building having a toilet] POINT SOURCE to contain all pollutants at such source prior to discharging effluent into a leachfield or into a publicly owned treatment works (sewer collection system). If the State of California had complied with the requirements of the Clean Water Act of 1972, California would not be in the drought situation it now finds itself in, wasting millions of gallons of fresh drinking water each day into the ocean and discharging tons of toxic pollution into our State’s drinking water aquifers.

The Governor is being “complicit” and has a “strict liability” to implement this “best available technology” in the interest of public health and welfare and our oceans and oceanic life. Since he has ignored his “duty of care” as a public official to act in the best interest of the people of the State of California and has no rational or legal ground to stand on for doing so, being sued in Federal court for fighting clean water is going to be extremely embarrassing for him and his career as a [posing] “Green Governor” as this case will go public in a very big way.

How do you think the citizen’s of California and the world will view Schwarznegger’s “double standard” when all the news coverage reveals the “Green Governor” has his attorneys trying to stop the implementation of “Green Technology” of this magnitude that affects every citizen’s quality of life in such a positive way? This one will leave a permanent mark on the Governor and the State of California if he doesn’t do what he needs to do, plead no contest to the charge of negligence, ask the Court for mercy and agree to comply with his duty under his own Executive Orders and the Clean Water Act and agree to implement the items of the prayer of the action filed against him and adopt the Green Standard for the State of California within 60 days.

The State attorneys have ZERO legal grounds upon which to defend the Governor and refuse to even recognize or address “one” of Mr. Murphy’s charges against him for “negligence”. Mr. Murphy designed a fair complaint against the Governor in hopes of gaining a “default judgment”. Such a judgment would cut Schwarzenegger’s hands free and sever the power of his referenced ‘special interest groups’, i.e. LAFCO, and allow Schwarzenegger to leave a “clean water legacy”.

However, Schwarzenegger disputed the claim and attempted to get it dismissed on technicalities void of substance. By the very nature of Schwarzenegger’s challenge of this complaint, it positions Schwarzenegger as willfully and knowingly acting in violation of his duties and obligations to compliance under his State Executive Orders and the Federal water laws of the United States as a person and the Governor of the State of California and is thereby committing a criminal act of ‘knowing endangerment’ (aka ‘environmental terrorism’) assaulting the States waters with a toxic substance, sewage pollution, while extorting the public of their water and it’s reuse [economic] benefits. Schwarzenegger should be assured, if he does not take the correct action to make this go away, the consequences will [ultimately] be of a serious nature for him and the State of California.

In regards to the State economic picture, consider the reality of the damages owed to Mr. Murphy (just in royalties due him under his patents) since March 1995 when this technology was promulgated to the State of California as well as the rest of the nation by the largest independent laboratory in the world, the National Sanitation Foundation. Since March 1995, every new source has been required by the Clean Water Act of 1972 and the Pollution Prevention Act of 1990 be served by Mr. Murphy’s BADCT technology. There has been no technology to equal Murphy’s since then. Every ‘exchange of ownership’ of every building in the State of California having a toilet has been required, pursuant to Federal water laws, to implementing ‘at-source control and containment of pollutants’ utilizing Mr. Murphy’s BADCT, whether such source was discharging into the ground or into a publicly owned treatment works. It is and has been the law and Mr. Murphy is due the damages accordingly. Damages [royalties] owed Mr. Murphy personally since March 1995 can be easily calculated by accounting for each real estate closing and permit issued times 10% of [required] facility’s gross value. Additionally, each publicly owned sewer plant was required to be retrofitted with Mr. Murphy’s BADCT technology upon receipt of any permit for improvement. This would include every facility in the State of California. The current estimated royalties due Mr. Murphy by the State of California [as owed to him by law] will total near the same amount as is the State debt. Mr. Murphy will agree to be paid such calculated damages in ‘carbon credits’ provided Schwarzenegger enters a plea of no contest to Murphy’s complaint. Otherwise, Mr. Murphy will file a “first amended complaint” and settle for no less than State’s assets in payment for the State’s ongoing incurring damages.

For your information, Mr. Murphy has already dedicated 100% of his New Water for Peace (a non-profit entity) revenues to his non-profit charity foundation in his Father and Mother’s name, the LoveJoy Foundation. This is not about money for Mr. Murphy, but about water for global humanity and what is due him under his rights as an American citizen and a businessman.

The perfect way out for the Governor is to plead no contest, then embrace and champion this revolutionary water technology and implement it, making California the leader in national [global] water issues just as it is the leader in so many other areas.

We do not enjoy litigation, only purifying and conserving State’s waters and making it available to every one of God’s children on this earth of which over 6,000 (4,000 of which are children) are dying each day from lack of sanitary drinking water conditions. This is what Schwarzenegger is fighting against? I, along with the Citizens of California am anxious to hear his defense if he chooses to continue his quest against clean water.

Secretary Chrisman, please take this directly to Governor Schwarzenegger. I suspect his staff has been shielding him and when he finds out it will be too late to avoid serious consequences that will not be good for the future of the State or him. I implore you to discuss this issue with him today and encourage him to do the right thing and be the hero. Otherwise, he is going to be the fall guy for the special interest groups in control of his State by controlling wastewater and the fight for clean water will continue until it is eventually won.

If the Governor doesn’t act (enter a plea of no contest) within the next 10 days, Mr. Murphy, contrary to his wishes, will accept such as Governor Schwarzenegger’s personal position and be required to take further appropriate action accordingly. However, if the Governor does, it will be a WONDERFUL NEW DAY FOR CALIFORNIA.

Respectfully,
