As a vital step of EPA’s implementation of President Trump’s Executive Order 13777, “Enforcing the Regulatory Reform Agenda,” EPA’s Regulatory Reform Task Force is evaluating existing regulations and making recommendations regarding those that can be repealed, replaced or modified to make them less burdensome.  As part of this effort, EPA is seeking public input to help identify such regulations through an open public comment period which closes on May 15.  Public comments can be submitted to the docket number EPA-HQ-OA-2017-0190 on www.regulations.gov.  In addition, certain EPA program offices are conducting public meetings and teleconferences to provide the Task Force public feedback by May 15.
 
EPA’s Office of Environmental Information (OEI) has scheduled an Open Call on its Shared Cross-Media Electronic Reporting Rule (CROMERR) Services (SCS) and opportunities for regulatory reform on May 11, 2017, at 2 p.m. The purpose of the call is to discuss the CROMERR approval process as well as what more OEI can do to help with CROMERR implementation. If participants want to provide written feedback about CROMERR, those comments should be submitted to the agency-wide docket by May 15: https://www.regulations.gov/docket?D=EPA-HQ-OA-2017-0190.
