Preserve the Clean Water Rule.jpg

The Clean Water Rule, finalized and put into place in 2015, gave important jurisdictional clarity for the Clean Water Act and it’s protection of streams and creeks that are headwaters to larger rivers. Water belongs to everyone, and clean water is a basic right for Americans. We all live downstream from somewhere.

If you reside in the U.S., please consider writing the EPA during the public comment period regarding Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OW-2017-023-001 which addresses the EPAs intention for the Repeal and Replacement of the 2015 Definition of Waters of the United States, 82 Fed. Reg. 34899 (July 2017), and oppose the initiative to repeal and replace this protective regulation.
