YA GOTTA LOVE THE DEQ

Many believe that the U.S. Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) is an overblown government bureaucracy with a mandate to suck all the money out of asphalt plant owners' pockets. This author disagrees with some of the heavy-handed tactics employed by the DEQ, but shares pictures he took in Russia, Guatemala, and Ecuador in the last 2 years while working on asphalt plants that convinced him we are far better off with the DEQ than we would be without it.
