Environmental Defense Fund (EDF) submits these comments to strongly oppose the Environmental Protection Agency's proposal to weaken protections provided under the Risk Management Program (RMP) and to present recent research which highlights the need for RMP facilities to consider risks posed by natural hazards and power loss.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is initiating a new rulemaking to reconsider the current Risk Management Program (RMP) rule requirements. The agency is providing notice of this proposed rulemaking, which will align with agency priorities to ensure clean air, land, and water for every American; restore American energy dominance; and promote cooperative federalism and cross-agency partnership while reducing regulatory burden on facilities.
