The US Senate has confirmed Scott Pruitt as Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency.
The PCA has welcomed this confirmation.
“We congratulate Mr. Pruitt on his confirmation, and look forward to working with him in the years ahead,” said PCA President and CEO James G. Toscas. “His experience and background are strong indicators that we will see a common-sense approach to regulations that protect public health and the environment. We have always believed that the best regulatory solutions derive from adherence to the intent of the enabling legislation, together with an honest consideration of the perspectives and concerns of all involved, including public stakeholders, the regulating agency, and the regulated industry. We believe and expect that Mr. Pruitt will restore balance to the regulatory process."
