Notice published on June 23 by Environmental Protection Agency

The US Environmental Protection Agency published a two page notice on June 23, according to the U.S. Government Publishing Office.

The notice is focused on Notice of Availability of Class Deviation; Disputes Resolution Procedures Related to Enforcement Actions Associated With Leaking Underground Storage Tank (LUST) Cooperative Agreements Distributing Funds Under the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act of 2009 (ARRA).

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.
