EPA is soliciting comments prior to Aug 1 — keep those comments going!
This time your comments have an impact!
Note they can garnish wages WITHOUT a court order:
“The direct final rule will allow the EPA to garnish non-Federal wages to collect delinquent non-tax debts owed the United States without first obtaining a court order.”
We may be able to have them rescind this outrageous rule:
“This direct final rule is effective September 2, 2014 without further notice unless EPA receives adverse comments by August 1, 2014. If EPA receives such comments, it will publish a timely withdrawal of the direct final rule in theFederal Registerand inform the public that the rule will not take effect.”
