[LEMONS] 1.08.2002
I hate linking to the nytimes sitre because it's just a big ad ho-rama. But it's 1:43 in the morening, I can'st find this tory anywhere else, and it's outrageous.
As in:
Top federal regulators have recommended informally that the White House relax one of the nation's most contentious air pollution regulations, a provision that requires power plants to upgrade pollution control equipment when they upgrade their operations.
Such a move has long been pushed by energy and industry groups — many of whom have been big supporters of President Bush — who say that current rules impose billions of dollars in extra costs that unfairly block utilities from modernizing to make plants more energy efficient.
Environmental groups have been equally vehement in their support of the current regulations, saying that any relaxation would amount to the biggest rollback of the Clean Air Act since its passage 30 years ago.
sigh.....
Bush...
