   Eastern District of Missouri   
   Criminal case - criminal law. Defendants' towbarge was a vessel for 
   purposes of the Clean Water Act, since it was a towable vehicle capable 
   of use as a means of transportation on the water; as a result, defendants 
   could not be criminally prosecuted for discharge of raw sewage from the 
   towbarge since the Act exempts the discharge of sewage from vessels.
