USCA opposed the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) plan to implement its Total Maximum Daily Load rule for the Chesapeake Bay and its numeric nutrient criteria rule for the state of Florida. USCA supports the USDA in their efforts to work with states to offer Certainty to farmer and ranchers who comply with CAW provisions. USCA supported H.R. 2018-Clean Water Cooperative Federalism Act of 2011, a bill that amends the Federal Water Pollution Act to prohibit the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency from taking such actions that supersede a states authority over issues pertaining to water quality standards and pollutant discharge mandates. USCA opposed the Proposed Guidance issued by the Environmental Protection Agency and the Corps of Engineers, Guidance Regarding Identification of Waters protected by the Clean Water Act, guidelines which interprets the term waters of the United States within the Clean Water Act. USCA supports efforts to waive the Renewable Fuels Standard for 2013. Based on the rising cost of feed for livestock producers, USCA supports efforts to waive the ethanol mandate for the full year or for a partial waiver of 2013. USCA supports efforts to review the ethanol mandate each year thereafter based on the current economic climate and costs of feed.

Educating policymakers on the need to work towards energy independence through a true "all of the above" domestic energy policy which makes responsible use of the full range of the nation's domestic energy resources. Legislation supported: H.R. 1287, H.R. 2016, H.R. 1719, H.R. 3407, H.R. 3408, H.R. 3410, H.R. 4381, H.R. 4382, H.R. 4384, S. 706, S. 629, S. 631. 2. Educating policymakers on the need to strengthen and expand the nation's electric transmission system. 3. Educating policymakers on the cumulative negative consequences of the growing body of regulations being instituted that impact the nation's electric generation fleet's reliability and which inflict growing costs on consumers (further discussed in the Air, Waste and Water pages of this report.) 4. Educating policymakers on the nexus between a robust energy policy and a strong minerals policy. Particular emphasis has been on critical minerals and their importance as inputs to a vast array of clean energy, electronics, high tech, health, defense, transportation and other applications. Past activities have included input for S. 1113 and support for H.R. 2011 and H.R. 4402. 5. Stressing with policymakers the implications of proposed Executive Branch requirements (NEPA, GHG, climate adaptation, Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, federal land management policies, etc.) -- that hamper energy and natural resource development projects across the West -- on the nation's energy and economic security. Support for various reform efforts to constrain regulatory overreach (listed under relevant issue pages of this report). 6. Educating policymakers on the need to focus on policies that encourage development of the nation's full range of "clean energy" resources/supporting technologies, including hydropower. 7. Support for H.R. 1996 and S. 1061. 8. Continuing to educate policymakers on the impacts to Western energy consumers of DOE Secretary Chu's proposed shift in the mission of the federal PMAs. 9. Support for House passage of the alternative offshore drilling plan for 2012-17 (H.R. 6082). 10.
