I think that sewage sludge, even under the acronym NASM , poses an undue health risk to both the land and water quality where it is spread. I think more rather than less government control is required in land application of this material. I note that more stringent controls will be implemented in handling of this material in urban settings such as golf courses. This implies that more protection is required for the urban rather than rural resident. As the body of scientific evidence grows it becomes more evident to me that the potential harm of sludge spreading on rural land is far greater than the benefits gained and that tighter rather than looser government controls are required
