Carper Blasts EPA Over Slow Pace Of Implementing PFAS Action Plan

摘要

One year after EPA unveiled its plan for addressing per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), Sen. Tom Carper (D-DE), the ranking Democrat on the Senate environment committee, is blasting EPA for its slow pace implementing the plan, giving the agency a D- grade for completion. "The Trump Administration has managed to make time for deregulatory proposals and environmental rollbacks, but key regulatory actions and other commitments made under the PFAS Action Plan still haven't been met," Carper said in a Feb. 10 statement. "The fact is, PFAS Action Plan is mostly plan and very little action."
