...added the antibiotic to its hazardous-substances roll call in 1985, using misinformation from another agency. The listing sets strictures only on the warehousing of more than 10,000 lbs. of the substance in one place. Even so, it is particularly vexing to a leading maker of bacitracin, New Jersey-based A.L. Laboratories, which is fighting to have the EPA erase its mistake. EPA officials say their administrative process is grinding its way to a decision on whether to make the change. But even they concede that things could drag on for at least another month before the makers...
Alarmed beachgoers from New Jersey to North Carolina have seen more than 200 horribly disfigured bottle-nose dolphins wash ashore this summer with their flesh rotted and their livers damaged. Marine biologists suspect that an additional 200 dolphins have died at sea and that the entire coastal population is endangered.

Critics also point out that the Administration has been foolish not only militarily, but diplomatically. Kuwait, a country the size of New Jersey, has used the spectre of increased Soviet influence in the Middle East to trick us into guarding their supertankers. In fact, the country we most hate in the region stands to gain the most from our decision to defend open navigation of the sea; Iran sends most of its exports out of the Gulf by sea, while Iraq transports its oil through overland pipelines. By keeping the waters open, we inadvertently prevent Iraqi attacks on Iranian ships...
