Yesterday, Frank D. Lucas, Chairman of the House Committee on Agriculture, sent a letter to EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson requesting a response to a list of questions from a bipartisan group of lawmakers that was submitted to her agency nearly six months ago.On March 10, 2011 Jackson testified before the Committee at a hearing on EPA regulations. Following the hearing, members of the Agriculture Committee submitted questions for the record to clarify EPA's proposed actions and to gather more information about potential impacts on agriulture.
According to a press release, "the EPA currently has more than 300 regulations under consideration, which could affect issues ranging from farm dust to federal jurisdiction over small streams and ponds."
