EPA Schedules Virtual Listening Sessions In June On Controlling Air Pollution From The Oil & Gas Industry

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency will hold three virtual listening sessions to take public input on the Agency’s upcoming regulations for the Oil and Natural Gas Industry on June 15, 16 and 17.
