EHS on Tap Episode 18: What’s the Future of the EPA and Its Regulations?

What does President Trump’s Executive Order directing federal agencies to repeal two regulations for every new one issued mean for the EPA? With the Administration’s promise to roll back most of EPA’s regulations and many in Congress calling for the agency to be eliminated entirely, the future of EPA regulations is of top interest to those in the environmental field.

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, a Partner with Morris Polich and Purdy LLP based in Los Angeles.
