Earlier this month, the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association (NCBA) applauded the introduction of the Define WOTUS Act. In other news concerning the Waters of the U.S., NCBA Chief Environmental Counsel Scott Yager discusses a significant legal victory.
Yager says there are currently 27 states that have an injunction against the 2015 rule, but the other states still have the rule in effect.
Yager said the repeal rule should go into effect in the next few days and weeks. The Trump administration’s replacement rule is expected to take place sometime by the end of the year.
