The new administration has been with us for a few weeks now, and we have seen a lot of activity involving the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). With President Trump’s new Executive Order directing federal agencies to repeal two regulations for every new one issued, his promise to roll back most of EPA’s regulations, and many in Congress calling for the agency to be eliminated entirely, things can be expected to stay very interesting.
In this episode of EHS on Tap,  we discuss the Executive Order’s effects on the EPA, whose methodology for crafting regulations has come under fire in recent years, with attorney Steven Hoch. Steven is a Partner with Morris Polich and Purdy LLP based in Los Angeles.  
Note:  This interview took place just before Scott Pruitt was nominated as the new head of the EPA.  Get the latest environmental news at Enviro.BLR.com, including Trump's recent order to repeal or revise EPA's Clean Water Rule: http://ow.ly/vSYr309yxBE
