Public Comment Sought for U.S. EPA's 'RE-Powering America's Land' Action Plan
The U.S. EPA is in the process of updating its 2008 plan to promote renewable energy on formerly contaminated land, mines, or landfill sites.
The U.S. EPA is looking for public comment on the latest "Action Plan" in accordance with the 2008 "RE-Powering America's Land" initiative. According to the plan's website, "To define goals, articulate activities and make them transparent to its stakeholders, the Initiative periodically develops an action plan. This action plan details specific activities for the Initiative over the next two years."
