WASHINGTON, D.C. — Marty Durbin, President of the Global Energy Institute at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, issued the following statement today regarding the Environmental Protection Agency’s announcement on Waters of the United States (WOTUS):
“The EPA’s announcement today marks a critical step toward providing clarity and balance under the Clean Water Act. By further aligning the new WOTUS proposal with the Supreme Court’s Sackett decision, the agency has the opportunity to establish a clear framework that supports environmental protection while reducing regulatory ambiguity. This approach is essential for advancing infrastructure projects, supporting economic growth, and ensuring businesses and landowners can operate with confidence.”
