What Environmental Protection Network (EPN) filed (2)

Nov 15, 2017· Comment submitted by Ruth Greenspan Bell, President, Environmental Protection Network (EPN)· EPA-HQ-OA-2017-0533-3550

EPA's draft Strategic Plan for FY 2018-2022 makes clear that Scott Pruitt and the Trump Administration have set their priorities in defiance of what robust science and common sense tells us are the human health and environmental challenges of the 21st Century. Mandated by law, EPA's strategic plan is a critical planning document for the agency's work over the four-year term of each President. It informs the public, the rest of the government and the career staff of the purposes of the agency and how it will achieve them. It should present a clear, data-based picture of the current state of the environment, including improvements made to date. And, it should provide the rationale, supported by science, for further progress in cleaning the environment and reducing risks to human health. The current draft plan deficiently is silent on significant threats to people's health and the environment - climate change, indoor air, radon, municipal solid waste, geographic-specific water-quality programs, and makes only passing references to wetlands protection and air toxics regulation. It is the wrong blueprint for EPA's next four years.
