The Washington Post reported in March that EPA Administrator Stephen Johnson was overruledby the White House in setting an ozone standard. Now, documents obtainedfrom the House oversight committee show that the White House also stepped in on the EPA’s decision of whether to give California a waiver to regulate tailpipe carbon emissions.
EPA staff scientists unanimously recommended that California be allowed to regulate automobile greenhouse gas emissions as they saw fit. Now it turns out Johnson thought the same, until the White House made him reconsider.
