The Texas Farm Bureau was one of 16 industry groups to file a legal challenge to WOTUS earlier this year, claiming the rule was unclear and would require farmers to hire teams of consultants and attorneys to determine whether waterways on their property were under federal protection.
"Texas farmers and ranchers cannot know whether their property or project contains WOTUS, because the rule is hopelessly vague,” said Russell Boening, president of the farm bureau. “The rule reaches far too broadly to cover wet patches and areas that are usually dry or remote from navigable water." They along with Republican lawmakers in Washington called on Biden to delay the rollout of WOTUS until the U.S. Supreme Court issues a ruling later this year on
