White House asks EPA to delete parts of emissions draft, sources say.
The Wall Street Journal (6/30, A3, Talley, Hughes) reports, "The White House is trying to prevent the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) from publishing a document that could become the legal roadmap for regulating greenhouse-gas emissions in the U.S." The development "is the latest...in a long-running conflict between the EPA and the White House over climate-change policy." The fight over the document "will likely intensify ongoing Congressional investigations into the Bush administration's involvement in the agency's policymaking." The Journal explaines, "The draft document...outlines how the government, under the Clean Air Act, could regulate greenhouse-gas emissions from mobile sources such as cars, trucks, trains, planes, and boats, and from stationary sources such as power stations, chemical plants and refineries." The White House has urged the agency "to delete sections of the document that say such emissions endanger public welfare, say how those gases could be regulated, and show an analysis of the cost of regulating greenhouse gases in the U.S. and other countries."
