Reducing the current standard will affect rural counties, and farming and ranching operations in those counties. The organization supported the Lugar-Conrad letter to the Environmental Protection Agency expressing concern about a more stringent standard. Chesapeke Bay Total Maximum Daily Load: The Environmental Protection Agency has issued a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for nutrient loading from the six states in the Chesapeake Bay watershed. The organization is concerned about validity of the science used and the approach taken by EPA. "Energy Tax Prevention Act of 2011" (H.R. 910/S. 482): Legislation to prohibit EPA from regulating greenhouse gases under the federal Clean Air Act based on climate change considerations, and other purposes. The organization opposes the regulation of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases and the Clean Air Act due to the impacts it will have on energy prices and potential implications (financial and regulatory) on farm and ranch families. The organization supported the McConnell amendment to S. 493, which contained the text of the "Energy Tax Prevention Act." "Defending America's Affordable Energy and Jobs Act" (S. 228/H.R. 750): A bill prohibiting the Executive Branch from promulgating, implementing or enforcing regulations to control emissions of greenhouse gases based solely on climate change, and other purposes. The organization opposes the regulation of greenhouse gases under the Clean Air Act. "Clean Water Protection Guidance": An EPA and Army Corps of Engineers guidance document that addresses how the federal government will determine the jurisdictional status of waters and implement the Supreme Court's decisions in SWANCC and Rapanos. The organization opposes efforts to expand the reach of the Clean Water Act to waters currently regulated by the states. The organization encouraged House members to cosign the Gibbs-Holden "Dear Colleague" letter to the EPA concerning the guidance. "Farm Dust Regulation Prevention Act of 2011" (H.R. 1633): Legislation that would temporarily prevent the EPA from changing the national ambient air quality standard (NAAQS) for coarse particulate matter for one year. The bill would also exempt "nuisance dust" from regulation, unless nuisance dust was found to cause serious adverse health effects, and the benefits of regulation exceeded the costs. The organization supports H.R. 1633. Army, Dept of (Corps of Engineers),Environmental Protection Agency (EPA),HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,SENATE   50000 0 0 2011-07-15T18:11:00.460000-04:00
