SEJ Answers EPA on "No Attribution" Presser

SEJ has replied to EPA's June 10 justification of its "no attribution" press phone briefing on June 2. SEJ's June 12 letter of response, available here, acknowledges EPA's extensive public roll-out, but challenges EPA to create the conditions for a truly two-way exchange between the agency and the news media. SEJ's original June 5, 2014, letter objecting to the anonymous briefing is here. The EPA response of June 10 from Associate Administrator Tom Reynolds is here.

In a report released Wednesday, four environmental groups crunched the tracking reports to find that more than 40 toxic chemicals have been used in dozens of drilling operations, often near homes, schools, and hospitals."
