The Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency says they’re working on a water rule that will stand the test of time.
EPA’s Michael Regan says the upcoming clean water rule will provide clarity and certainty for America’s farmers and ranchers. “Normal farming, silviculture, and ranching practices, as defined by the Clean Water Act Section 404, that could take place in a jurisdictional waterway or wetland, will not require a permit,” he says.
Regan told NASDA members during his remarks on Monday that they would not be reinstating the Navigable Waters Protection Rule OR the 2015 Clean Water Rule.
