(Lenexa, Kan., March 12, 2015) - On Monday, March 16, E.P.A. Administrator Gina McCarthy will speak at the National Farmers Union (NFU) Convention in Wichita, Kan., about the need to protect the waters that matter most and the important outreach and feedback we've received from NFU. From manufacturing and brewing to farming and ranching, American businesses can't function without clean water and one in 3 Americans get their drinking water from streams and wetlands that lack clear protection from pollution. E.P.A. is committed to finalizing a Clean Water Rule that keeps the exclusions and exemptions for agriculture and reflects the input from our public review period.
