Wyoming has concerns that I would like to discuss with you. I have attached the EPA fact sheet and a comment letter sent by Utah that gives a good overview of issues and concerns that would be mostly consistent with Wyoming's view. My staff are in the process of summarizing Wyoming specific concerns that will be sent at a later date. There were 44 commenters (mostly states and tribes). Ten states commented (ND, SD, UT, CO, ID, OK, MI, WI, MN and ME). I have attached the link to EPA's final interpretive rule and associated public comment below. https://www.epa.gov/wqs-tech/revised-interpretation-clean-water-act-tribal-provision I look forward to the opportunity to discuss this with you in more detail. Thanks.
