EWG News Roundup (12/6): Key PFAS Legislation in Jeopardy, the Trump-Wheeler ‘Red Wedding’ and More

Congressional sources say key provisions to reduce discharges and clean up the toxic fluorinated chemicals known as PFAS are likely to be scrapped from the final national defense spending bill.

“Congress may once again fail to protect us from toxic PFAS chemicals,” said EWG Senior VP for Government Affairs Scott Faber. “If the reports are accurate, the defense spending bill will largely fail to reduce PFAS discharges into drinking water supplies and keep it out of our tap water, and will let the Defense Department and others off the hook when it comes to cleaning up legacy PFAS pollution.”

Next year, the Environmental Protection Agency will mark its 50th anniversary. Former top fossil fuel lobbyist-turned-EPA-head Andrew Wheeler announced plans for a year-long “celebration,” promising “to build on our progress for future generations” – a boast that invites skepticism, given the Trump administration’s continued rollback of environmental protections.

“President Trump and Administrator Wheeler will spend a full year saluting the EPA’s 50 years of environmental protection?” asked EWG President Ken Cook. “We haven’t seen a celebration this joyous and heartfelt since the Red Wedding episode of ‘Game of Thrones.’”

Cities across the nation, like Berkeley, Calif., are working toward banning natural gas hookups in new homes and buildings. Cities adopting such policies are citing deep cuts in their emissions of carbon and other global warming gases as reason for these changes. 

An investigation by EPA’s acting inspector general found that disgraced former agency chief Scott Pruitt directed staff to ignore potential impacts to children’s health as the agency moved to roll back the Obama-era pollution rules for dirty diesel engines in new freight trucks.

And finally, EWG welcomed environmental attorney Jamie Konopacky as EWG’s Midwest director, based in Minneapolis. “Jamie’s appointment signals our commitment to improving public health and the environment in the upper Midwest,” said Craig Cox, EWG senior VP for agriculture and natural resources. “She will be a great and timely addition EWG’s Midwest team.”
