Unified Agenda Signals Delays For Major EPA Waste, Water Office Policies

摘要

Several major EPA water and waste office rulemakings face fresh delays according to the agency's updated Spring Unified Agenda of pending regulations, punting some controversial policies until next year and making it possible that former Vice President Joe Biden's EPA could reverse the rules if he wins the 2020 presidential election. Timelines for several Office of Water (OW) rules in the agenda updated June 30 have slipped, some significantly, from the fall 2019 agenda, including one rule that will now not meet statutory deadlines for promulgation.
