The Senate Environment and Public Works Committee will hold a confirmation hearing Oct. 4 on a host of President Donald Trump's picks for posts at EPA and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
The session will include four EPA nominees: Matthew Leopold to be general counsel, William Wehrum to run the air office, Michael Dourson to run the Office of Chemical Safety and Pollution Prevention and David Ross to run the water office. Lawmakers will also consider Jeff Baran's re-nomination to the NRC.
The committee shelved a hearing planned for last week on the picks after the Senate adjourned earlier than expected for Rosh Hashanah. Wehrum's and Dourson's nominations have attracted the most controversy from Democrats and the environmental community.
WHAT'S NEXT: The full EPW Committee will consider the nominees at the Oct. 4 hearing.
