JD, Your legal post made me think I was back on the job as an NYS ENCON Officer trying to stay awake at an In-Service School. Whew ! Just have a little problem with your statement " but I find very often that police, sheriff's deputies and state environtal workers often don't know the law very well, except for the bits and pieces they have to deal with on a daily basis."

Unless something overt, like running a tire dump,C & D site, or opening honeydippers on open land. Common sense basically.Least that's how I ran things in my zone in southeastern NYS.
