E-M:/ FW: ChiTrib: EPA Wants Less Pollution Info

["Rita Jack" <rita.jack@sierraclub.org>]

Dear Michigan:  See this article --- is this what YOU want??  Unbelievable!!  (but the quote below isn't.) 

 

EPA tells polluters it wants less data: Rule changes would let firms emit

more before reporting it...

 

"Business groups are lining up behind the change. "This sensible update will provide relief to small manufacturers and free up resources for addressing critical environmental priorities," John Engler, president of the National Association of Manufacturers, said in a statement."
