Abstract
The Refuse Act of 1899, although approaching its diamond anniversary, is alive and well and providing the best legal framework for cleaning up the nation's navigable streams and their tributaries. Its absolute standard of no pollution, which is ameliorated through practical application, is to be preferred over attempts to provide elaborate statutory standards.
