EPA lifts 2016 emergency order on drinking water in Flint
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced on Monday it was lifting an emergency order on Flint's drinking water that was implemented nine years ago. The agency issued the order in January 2016 in response to the city's water crisis. On Monday, EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin said the city completed all requirements under the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA). "Lifting this emergency order is a cause for great celebration for residents of Flint who worked so hard and sacrifice so much to get to this point," said Zeldin, who visited Flint shortly after he was named administrator. "Even though the emergency order is lifted, all levels of government must continue to stay in contact and work closely to be a continued resource for the Flint community and ensure their water remains pristine." The lift comes more than 10 years after the city experienced lead-contaminated drinking water, which affected thousands of residents. The EPA says that after issuing the order, the city of Flint and the State of Michigan worked with the federal agency to meet all of the requirements. Part of the order included regular water testing. In 2024, the city agreed to an administrative consent order with the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy to ensure compliance with the Lead and Copper Rule and SDWA. Some requirements included increasing staff and constructing a backup pipeline from the Genesee County Drain Commission to the Flint public water system. That same year, the city unveiled an upgraded water facility to the public. The city says it has replaced over 97% of the lead pipes. Flint Mayor Sheldon Neeley said the lift is a "powerful testament to the strength and advocacy of Flint residents." "For nearly a decade, we have worked tirelessly to restore trust and integrity to our water system, as well as meeting rigorous standards. While this milestone marks progress, our commitment to clean, safe drinking water remains unwavering," Neeley said in a news release. "We will continue to advance infrastructure, strengthen safeguards, and ensure that the mistakes of the past are never repeated. Flint families deserve nothing less."

Pfluger, Crenshaw lead push for state primacy of carbon capture permits in Texas
Mar. 3—WASHINGTON, D.C. — Congressman August Pfluger (TX-11) and Congressman Dan Crenshaw (TX-02) led a letter urging Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Lee Zeldin to expedite the review of the Texas Railroad Commission's (RRC) application for primary enforcement responsibility ("primacy") of Class VI underground injection control wells. These wells are integral to advancing carbon capture technology across the state. Currently, the EPA is facing a backlog of more than 160 Class VI well applications, with only eight final permit decisions issued and an average permitting time of three to six years. By granting the RRC authority to oversee Class VI well permitting, project developers would no longer have to rely solely on the EPA's slow approval process. Instead, they could apply directly to the RRC, an agency with decades of expertise in managing Texas' diverse and unique geology. In part, the members wrote, "We believe that prioritizing the review of the RRC's application will benefit the EPA by establishing a clear precedent for review timelines. This will help streamline the approval process for future applications from other states, facilitate the launch of new CCUS projects, and ensure the implementation of appropriate environmental reviewing RRC's application in a timely manner, the EPA will enable more efficient oversight, streamline permitting processes, and foster innovation in the growing field of carbon capture. This will also empower local stakeholders, including energy producers, environmental organizations, and the public, to have a more direct and effective voice in the regulation of these wells, which is vital to maintaining public confidence in the process." The letter details how the RRC's application meets all statutory requirements under the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) and underscores the RRC's robust regulatory frameworks for subsurface injection activities. It further highlights how timely approval of the application will establish a precedent for other states looking to accelerate their own carbon capture initiatives. See the full letter here.
