Providing More Clarity: EPA set to revisit the federal government’s definition of WOTUS

A move farmers hope will provide more clarity.

Roger McEowen with the Washburn School of Law spoke with RFD-TV’s Jennifer Vickery Smith on what this alignment will entail, the next steps, and what producers are saying.
