The Prime Minister, Kevin Rudd, said he looks forward to the charges against employees of a foreign ship to enter a protected area of the Great Barrier Reef by the accused. Australia Federal Police have three men in the Mimosa MV, supposedly captured in a limited space in the Great Barrier Reef Park without a permit last week. Rudd told reporters on Monday that it was important that vessels remain a threat to the health of the reefs. ”If we have all foreign vessels and the violation of the protection of the Great Barrier Reef, should throw the book at them,”Rudd said. ”[The design] is an appropriate approach, and look forward to the appropriate legal procedures. Federal agents executed a search warrant on Saturday at the Panama-flag ship Bowen, after receiving information from the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority and the Australia Maritime Safety Authority investigators. Navigation equipment and cards were confiscated and three men were arrested. A 63-year-old from South Korea to two Vietnamese men aged between 26 and 32 have involved a restricted area without permission of the reef into account. The alleged theft took place after the Chinese Collier, Sheng Neng 1, and he left Rockhampton on Saturday. The AFP said that they also say that the ship was registered in the system for monitoring the reefs.

KINGMAN – A new federal lead paint rule set to go into effect in just two weeks could cause major financial headaches for local contractors already reeling from a tough economy.
According to a report from the Better Business Bureau, the Environmental Protection Agency’s “Renovation, Repair and Painting” rule will start being enforced on April 22. The rule, which is designed to limit public exposure to lead paint from building renovations, will require any such renovation company or contractor to first meet specific lead abatement training and certification requirements or be hit with a massive fine for each day they work on the building.
The new rule will apply to any home renovation companies, window replacement contractors, plumbers, electricians, painters, maintenance workers or landlords who perform repairs and renovations on residential buildings constructed prior to 1978, as well as any public and commercial buildings built in the same period that will be regularly accessed by children under the age of 6.
