EPA Seeks Small Business Input on Proposed Stormwater Rule
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is inviting small businesses and municipalities to nominate representatives to provide input on a proposed stormwater rule. The rule would strengthen the national stormwater program under the Clean Water Act and focus on stormwater discharges from developed sites, such as subdivisions, roadways, industrial facilities and commercial buildings or shopping centers.
Selected participants will provide the Small Business Advocacy Review panel input on how the EPA can minimize the potential burden on small entities. The panel will consist of officials from the EPA, the U.S. Small Business Administration and the Office of Management and Budget. Participants will provide input on how the EPA can minimize the potential burden on small entities.
Nominations must be received by August 4. Click here for more information about the proposed rulemaking. Contact Allyson Black for further information at .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address).
