CHARLESTON, S.C. - (July 24, 2017) U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Scott Pruitt continued his multistate action tour in South Carolina today, visiting his fourth state in a week. The visit highlights the Administrator's recent decision to begin the process to rescind the "Waters of the United States" (WOTUS) rule to help return

power back to the states and provide regulatory certainty for farmers, landowners, and ranchers across the country. Administrator Pruitt was joined by U.S. Senator Lindsay Graham, Attorney General Alan Wilson, Congressman Joe Wilson, and South Carolina Agriculture Commissioner Hugh Weathers for a roundtable with local agriculture and business leaders.
"The Trump Administration and EPA are committed to empowering agriculture and business leaders who have been burdened with overreaching regulations that do little to promote environmental stewardship,"said EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt. "By beginning the process to rescind WOTUS, we are helping return oversight to states and providing regulatory certainty for farms in South Carolina while continuing to keep our waters clean."
Following the roundtable, representatives from the family owned business Super-Sod led Administrator Pruitt and local elected officials on a tour of the Super-Sod facility. They viewed the facility's streams and rivers that have been adversely affected by the WOTUS rule.
