Environmental Protection Agency publishes notice on April 13

The US Environmental Protection Agency published a three page notice on April 13, according to the U.S. Government Publishing Office.

The notice is focused on Final Modified NPDES Permits for Log Transfer Facilities Operating in Alaska Prior to October 22, 1985, and Possessing a Section 404 Permit But Not a Section 402 permit (AK-G70-0000), and All Other Log Transfer Facilities Operating in Alaska (AK-G70-1000).

More than half of the Agency's employees are engineers, scientists and protection specialists. The Climate Reality Project, a global climate activist organization, accused Agency leadership in the last five years of undermining its main mission.

Notices are required documents detailing rules and regulations being proposed by each federal department. This allows the public to see what issues legislators and federal departments are focusing on.

Any person or organization can comment on the proposed rules. Departments and agencies must then address “significant issues raised in comments and discuss any changes made,” the Federal Register says.
