On Friday (9/24) EPA published a "Notice" in the Federal Register. This notice formalized the 8/23 announcement that EPA dropped the idea of banning lead ammo, and reiterated that the possibility of banning lead fishing tackle is still being considered. I posted a few more details here.

Over the weekend, I reviewed a number of the comments & found several from respected sources--most of the points raised mirror the concerns we've discussed for several weeks. I linked several of the better ones (in this thread) & encourage you to take a few minutes to check them out.
