Aug 16, 2017· Mass Comment Campaign sponsored by Environmental Defense Fund (EDF) (web)· EPA-HQ-OAR-2010-0505-12093

To Whom It May Concern: Attached are two documents containing the signatures of 75,366 Environmental Defense Fund supporters from across the country who have submitted electronic comments regarding EPA's Proposed Rule: Oil and Natural Gas Sector; Emission Standards for New, Reconstructed, and Modified Sources: Stay of Certain Requirements. The comment they each submitted reads: "I'm writing today in strong opposition to your proposal to suspend vital air pollution safeguards that will reduce harmful methane, smog-forming volatile organic compounds, and toxic air pollutants like benzene from new and modified sources in the oil and natural gas sector. This decision threatens the health and welfare of countless Americans who live in close proximity to oil and gas development by allowing thousands of tons of these harmful air pollutants to be emitted into the atmosphere. Each day this suspension is in place, the harm will be compounded: more new wells are drilled and other wells subject to the standards are allowed to continue emitting harmful pollution, which cannot later be removed from the air. These common-sense safeguards are also highly cost-effective, leveraging widely used technologies and best practices that are already required in several energy-producing states. They were also developed through extensive public input and years of agency deliberation. There is no basis for EPA to suspend these safeguards. Please reverse this unlawful, dangerous decision, and ensure these crucial pollution safeguards are put into action." Please let me know if you have any additional questions or concerns about this submission. Thank you for your consideration, Heather Shelby Manager, Grassroots Organizing & Activism Environmental Defense Fund hshelby@edf.org
