The EPA and Army Corps of Engineers is requesting nominations for roundtable participants, including farmers and ag groups, for regional discussions on the Waters of the U.S.
Missouri Corn and Soybean’s Environmental Director Darrick Steen says agriculture’s message in the roundtable discussions will likely be the same across regions.
“We want a WOTUS rule that, ultimately, doesn’t add additional regulatory burden or regulatory risk,” he said. “Those are, sort of, two different things placed onto our farmers.”
Steen says farmers have ‘nothing to lose’ in participating in EPA’s WOTUS discussions.
