It's one of the biggest attacks on the Clean Water Act in decades and includes more than 20 anti-clean water provisions. We are still anticipating that the U.S. House of Representatives will vote on the PERMIT Act (H.R. 3898) when they return from August recess. If it passes, the bill could then be taken up in the Senate. The “Permission to Pollute Act” removes the Environmental Protection Agency’s authority to block dangerous projects, limits the rights of states and tribes to protect their own waters, shields polluters from being held accountable, and opens the door to unchecked pollution. This bill undermines the Clean Water Act and puts polluter profits ahead of reducing water pollution and protecting health and the environment. Please urge others to tell their U.S. Representative to vote NO on H.R. 3898. <https://image.emails.sierraclub.org/lib/fe94137277610c7d76/m/1/576c5163-9f0b-457a-b2fb-04ba2bdda569.png> ________________________________ <https://image.emails.sierraclub.org/lib/fe94137277610c7d76/m/2/12228ae2-dbd1-49a1-aa38-0f2aafb8d52d.jpg> ________________________________ The North Olympic Group's website contains a blog that's updated to reflect current environmental issues and events.
