Please find enclosed comments from the Interstate Natural Gas Association of America and the American Gas Association on the EPA's Proposed Rule in Docket No. EPA-HQ-OW-2022-0128 as well as the accompanying attachments.

Abstract

EPA’s current water quality certification regulations were promulgated in 1971, prior to the 1972 amendments that enacted Clean Water Act section 401. With this action, the Agency is proposing to update the existing regulations to be more consistent with the statutory text of the CWA; to clarify, reinforce, and provide a measure of consistency with respect to elements of section 401 certification practice that have evolved over the fifty years since the 1971 Rule was promulgated; and to support an efficient and predictable certification process that is consistent with the water quality protection and cooperative federalism principles central to CWA section 401.
