#2 One step in the right direction.

Now get rid of all the extra and stupid regulations the EPA put out and just concentrate on the base mission.

#3 While you're at it, give us an update on the Flint Michigan drinking water contamination issue. Modern civilizations have a need to know.

#4 Yay. But seriously, this sort of reform only lasts until the next administration. You would that after 8 years of 0bumble, Republicans would be passing legislation to roll back the rule making authority of these administrative agencies.

#5 And rename it from EPA to Clean Water and Air and Nothing Else Agency so the progressives can't repurpose it to take over the USA.

#6 Currently, the EPA is out of control. Good idea to get away from the notion of climate change/global warming. Clean air and clean water is a worthy goal. Limiting toxic dumps is also a worthy goal. As with other agencies there has to be accountability. I can remember when the Cuyahoga River caught on fire due to people dumping combustible stuff in the river. We don't want that again.

#7 Kill nine out of ten at the EPA and THEN make clear their new purpose in life. Maybe a bit harsh, but hey, like they matter.
