Message: The following article from ClimateScienceWatch.org was posted on Tuesday, March 24, 2009 and is available in its entirety at the following Web address: http://www.climatesciencewatch.org/index.php/csw/details/omb_epa_ghg_regulation/ Title: "White House OMB should not be allowed to undermine EPA Clean Air Act regulation of greenhouse gases" Introduction: Now that EPA is moving toward regulation of greenhouse gases under the Clean Air Act, any inclination of Office of Management and Budget regulatory czar-in-waiting Cass Sunstein to block strong regulation by applying the useless cost-benefit analysis paradigm to dealing with climate disruption must be curbed. We told Environmental Science & Technology that President Obama’s naming of Sunstein to head the OMB Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs could be a problem unless OIRA is kept on a short leash in reviewing agency health, safety, and environmental rulemaking.
