MONTPELIER, Vt. (WCAX) – The Environmental Protection Agency says Vermont falls short when it comes to enforcing clean water regulations.
The EPA issued a letter on Monday arguing the state does not properly regulate farm pollution under the Clean Water Act.
The agency says Vermont does not do enough to regulate large-scale agricultural facilities which they say can contribute to severe water quality problems around the state.
The letter directs the state’s Agency of Natural Resources to establish a system for agricultural regulation.
