one of the biggest one of the biggest proposals during governor branstad's condition of the state address this year was his clean water initiative. it extends a one-percent sales tax used for education for 20-years.the same amount of money that has been going to education will still go to the schoooo -- but y additional funds will be directed to water quality projects. projects.in a story you will see only on cbs 2 news, anchor kevin barry explains at least part of the reason the governor is focusing his efforts in that direction. this all starts with one of the most recognizable parts of iowa -- it's farm land.it's millions of acres of row crops wouldn't be possible if not for sometimes complicated drainage systems eping iowa farmland from becoming swamps. but run-off from the farms carry harmful chemicals --

state's rivers -- and a des moines water works lawsuit is trying to make a handful of small pieces of land in rural iowa responsible for taking that nitrate out. out. this is the origination of the main open ditch of drdrnage district 2 and 51.they carry water in calhoun and sac counties in rural northwest iowa -- they eventually run into the racoon river -- and district 2 and 51 are partially ground zero for the des moines water work lawsuit saying districts just like these are polluting iowa's water -- way too much. much. their whole message is that agricultural drainage is a public nuisance. that's what the law suit alleges.kristine tidgren at the iowa state center for agriculture law and taxation says these specific districts are targrged because there's nothing else around that could be putting nitrate into the water -- except agriculture.run off created by farmland is one of the only

clean water act permits regulating what gets put into water supplies -- and charging a fee for it.bill stowe at des moines water works says it's time for that to change change. des moines waterworks has expeririced highghitrate levels for the last 25 years. we built the world's largest de-nitrification facility now about 25 years ago so that has been a long and persistent problem for us.stowe says in 2015 -- des moines water had to take nitrates out for a record 177 days. days.is is a denitrification facility built about 25 years ago.it's an expensive process -- that cost 1 and a half million dollars in 2015 - and needs to be replaced now -- because salt-based process corrodes the equipment and it's getting older.stowe says the price tag would be around 80 million dollars -- and with the ghest nitrate t- concentrations ever being found in the des moines and racoon r rers -- stowe says it's not right to keep pushing that cost on to consumers.

producers upstream who are pushing that pollution down to us should either stop polluting or pay to remediate it.in any other part of the law -- that would happen outside the courts.but not for the rural -- agricultural drainage districts. districts. you cannot sue a drainage district fordamages s because they're not that type of entity.kristine says the iowa supreme court has upheld this idea of "unqualified immunity" becuase drainage didiricts are not cocoorations and don't turn a profit -- they're just pieces of land.the people responsible for them -- in this case -- the county board of supervisors -- cabe sued and ordered to fix them if they're damaged.she says since thth don't produce any revenue -- they haven't been considered financially responsible for anything outside their own upkeep. upkeep.we believe that it's very c@ear in the iowa code and or constitution that our responsibilitiees as supervisors or trustees is for infrastructure of these facilities. we have no ability

responsiblitiy is soley on th infrastructure and maintainence of those structures.the supervisors say having to apply for permits for agriculture runoff would be like suddenly having to go to the d-m-v to get a licence to ride a bike -- it's'sust ver been done. done.farmingngs a very sympathetic and admirable trade but it's a business. there's no other business that can take a pipe and discharge into the waters of the state without being regulated. agriculture needs to catch up with the rest of the world and be accountable for it's productiti.he says a simple permitting process would do that. that.permitting does not mean that you can't discharge, it means that there's regulating and control process that's important for environmental protection.it's exactly what des moines water does.after they take nitrates out of the water -- they have a salt and nitrate mixture they put back into the river downstream -- and the cost of the permit to do ilegallllis just a cost

if famers don't want to do that -- they should get better at keeping nitrates out of the water supply. supply.this is an example of a buffer strip. rick says this strip is shows that farmers are already being responsible stewards of their land.in des moines -- state senator rob ho says attempts to help through legislation have been underfunded. underfunded.it's going to take money, it's going to take monitoring and it's going to take a cooperative structure to get there and i'm not sure the legislature is ready to go that route and i'm not sure some people aren't going to just roll the dice the hope that the lawsuit goes their way. the county supervisors for buena vista, calhoun and sac county say the nitrate they put in is just a drop in the bucket by the time it travels more than 150 miles -- past thousands of other farms -- to des moines. but since this case would be precedent setting -- des moines water says theheamount of nitrates they put in isn't the point.

-- until now.the trial is slated to start in august -- but thatat expected to be pushed back while parts of of the case are cleared up in iowa's supreme court. if you're just getting up, good morning -- it's now right now it's degrees in aftethe break...one last look at the delegate count for republicans before they head into the biggest n good morning to you. it is 6:00 on this tuesday.
