SHOW ME THE DOCUMENTS>>>>>

We did something sort of crazy at The NYT this year, as we look for ways to dig into what has happened at the Environmental Protection Agency since Trump returned to the White House.

We collected more than 466,200 pages of federal and state documents.....

THREAD 1: The Air Toxics Rollback Cast of Characters

Let’s start with the rules themselves. The EPA in 2024 had updated at least nine air toxics rules that are part of the Clean Air Act. The agency ordered upgrades to curb cancer or excessive air pollution.

Given Trump's penchant for bigness, he deserves to have his name emblazoned on the largest toxic waste site in the world -- Hanford.

I don't know man, maybe communities who are fighting some of these facilities aren't trying to make comprehensive decarbonization work but are just trying to survive? You think the people who are in Cancer Alley are concerned with whether or not them avoiding yet more toxics are concerned with this?

And here is an interactive map.

You can look in your state/see where these sources of air toxics are located. Do you live near one?

See link here for online version of the map with data built in re name/etc for each pollution source given Trump waiver:

THREAD 1: The Nuclear Option.
Using Presidential Power to Wipe Out EPA Toxics Rules

For decades now, Clean Air Act has allowed the president to issue a so-called presidential exemption to at least temporarily suspect a rule intended to protect public health/air quality.

I found this from 1973

Indorama turned to Trump for an exemption. We got those documents too. It did not want to have to install the fenceline monitors by July 2026. Or to make upgrades by 2027 to its air toxics pollution controls. (See Szabo and Tardif again)

Now she was meeting with AFPM as AFPM moved to rollback air toxics rules--this time as the government boss helping deliver the rollback the industry wanted. Loads of meetings including AFPM, where she used to work for as lobbyist

Per evitar-ho, recomanen barreres de cintes de coure, arenat al voltant de les bústies o l'ús de carnícies, tot evitant productes tòxics que afecten la fauna nativa.
