EPA Releases new WOTUS Rule

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released a new WOTUS rule last week. The regulation would replace the 2015 WOTUS rule, which was an Obama-era regulation that drastically expanded the EPA and Army Corps of Engineers reach over what is considered a Water of the United Stated (WOTUS). The EPA has more information here and NPMA staff will be reviewing the rule for it’s impact on the industry.
