Federalism Consultation Letters - Region 7
EPA is archiving material relevant to the Navigable Waters Protection Rule, including this page, to avoid confusion during the upcoming rulemaking efforts.
As part of the EPA and the Department of the Army’s efforts to review and revise the scope of the “waters of the United States,” the agencies have posted approximately 200 comment letters that were submitted during the formal consultation process, giving the public and stakeholders the opportunity to review the input the agencies received. A summary of issues raised during federalism and tribal consultation will be available in the docket once a Step 2 rulemaking is proposed.
