EPA extends comment period on proposed water quality standards Enviro-Net The U.S Environmental Protection Agency extended the comment period for the agency’s proposed water quality standards. The comment period is being extended for 30 days and will now end on April 28. The agency will also conduct three more public hearings in Florida to obtain additional input and comments on the proposed rulemaking. Planning for the additional hearings is underway and the hearings are targeted for mid-April in several cities across the state. EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson announced the extension in a meeting with senior EPA officials and members of the Florida’s Congressional delegation. In February, EPA held public hearing sessions on the proposed standards in Tallahassee, Orlando and Fort Lauderdale, FL. |
