Ernst Presses EPA for Answers on WOTUS Rule

WASHINGTON-As the Biden Administration continues its efforts to re-write the previous administration's commonsense Navigable Waters Protection Rule, U.S. Senator Joni Ernst (R-Iowa) pressed Radhika Fox, Assistant Administrator for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Office of Water, for answers. At a Senate Environment and Public Works Committee hearing, Ernst expressed concern for a potential return to the harmful policies seen under the Obama Administration's Waters of the U.S., or WOTUS, rule.
