OMB Approves EPA RMP RFI

As I suggested last night, the OMB announced that it had approved the EPA’s request for information concerning potential changes to their Risk Management Program. This is being reported as being a ‘Notice’ not a ‘Pre-rule’ meaning that an advance notice of proposed rulemaking could still be expected to be part of any rulemaking process arising out of this action.

It won’t be until later today that we know whether or not this notice will be published in Monday’s Federal Register, though I fully expect that it will be.
