The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has named a former chemical industry attorney to lead its Superfund Task Force in charge of improving and expediting cleanup of some of the country’s most polluted sites.

Steven Cook has worked for the EPA for three months as deputy assistant administrator in the EPA’s Office of Land and Emergency Management, the office in charge of the agency’s emergency response and waste programs. Before coming to the EPA, Cook worked for more than two decades as senior corporate counsel at LyondellBasell, which describes itself as “one of the largest plastics, chemicals and refining companies in the world.”

Talk about allowing the fox to run the hen house! Damn!

Winning!

Winning!

Isn't winning having clean air, water and an long life span? Money isn't worth it if everyone is sick.

Now we know where the swamp drain outlet is.

My air are water are awesome and I'm gonna live forever ... sorry about yours.

 

[Pilot1]

Good! Maybe we will get some reasonable, common sense activities.

Ah, the American rugged individualism. It is great to live totally independent of all others, having to share with none, depending upon the efforts of no one else. It saves us from those bothersome thoughts about unnecessary suffering, deprivation, oppression...
There's always cake, after all.

If you want these Communist gubmint orgs run properly, they need industry insiders to lead them. Good move Trump Administration.

Like Soetero said, "Elections have consequences"

And let's face it, at least half the people in the country who vote are thrilled the EPA is being blown up. Go in and talk to any small business owner and ask them what they think.... next time you're on line at a deli speak to the owner like I do. These people are euphoric they won't have to deal with some new silly environmental regulation that causes them to invest $5,000 in their business that they don't need to do. Silly shit that doesn't have dick to do with the environment. These fucks make new nonsensical rules to ensure one thing only: to keep the agency growing. Duh.... that's what bureaucracies do. President Trump understands that.

The st00pids of the world like Jessica don't understand how bureaucracies work. But regular folks do!

Happens in every administration. Obama might have been the worst, but you wouldn’t know this.

I would much rather have someone who is familiar with the industry running the show than some liberal wack job who sees the boogy man in every chemical compound.

A chemical engineer who understands the problems and how to clean them up.... WINNER!

Cant think of a more qualified person to not only not get duped by the fringe left wackos and also not get duped by those who want to dump crap without commonsense rules....

About damn time we got some common sense in there!

Bravo Scott Pruitt!

Billy, the man is a lawyer, not an engineer. Just like you're a retired cop and neither an atmospheric physicist nor a meteorologist.

In typical fashion, you never check out anything...which is why you remain a top shelf, uninformed dupe. The man has a BS in chemical engineering from Brigham Young University.

Here's what the link says. If you have something else, let's see it:

If he has a chemical engineering degree, he hasn't used it in a very long time.

Guess what...there is a world of information that isn't in the link...and the fact that you only looked at the link is precisely why you remain an uninformed dupe. As to what he has done with his degree in chemical engineering, you are, as usual, just talking out of your ass with no idea of what he has done, or hasn't done with it. Let me guess, you believe the only way one may use a degree is to actually work for pay in the field. More dupery....but what else should one expect from you?

Winning!

How?

You may want to check your 'facts'...

Golly, you obviously think he is a bad choice for the office, but you have yet to show WHY you think he is a bad choice for the office.

How would you know that his Chemical Engineering degree has not been used in his career?
