The EPA is letting environmental criminals off the hook - Vox

'Both reports make the case that the EPA is neglecting its mission and letting bad actors off the hook. '

'In FY2018, EPA used its Superfund enforcement tools to facilitate cleanup and redevelopment at over 150 sites. '

'But according to government watchdog groups, under the Trump administration, the agency has seen big declines in both civil and criminal enforcement of environmental laws. '

'For example, the cases EPA concluded in FY2018 required regulated entities to address over 809 million pounds of waste and pollutants, an increase of more than 40% over FY2017. '

'But that requires the EPA to follow up on leads, analyze the evidence, and build a legal case. '
