Scott Pruitt came to the Environmental Protection Agency earlier this year on a mission to change it from within. Since its founding in 1970, the agency's primary task has been to keep people safe from toxic pollutants. Pruitt has pioneered a radically different approach to environmental regulation, weighing impact on job growth and the concerns of business groups on a level plane with environmental protection when the law allows. But the sharp turn at the EPA and Pruitt's close ties to the industry have raised questions about whose interests the agency is protecting. Since he took office, more than a dozen EPA regulations have been killed or put under review, from fuel-efficiency standards to regulations on the disposal of coal ash to restrictions on toxic metals like arsenic in waterways. Moreover, the Trump Administration has proposed slashing funding for the agency's law-enforcement branch, which identifies polluters under existing regulations. In an interview with TIME on Oct. 18, Pruitt dismissed criticism of his industry-friendly approach. "I don't spend any time with polluters. I prosecute polluters," he said. "What I'm spending time with is stakeholders who care about outcomes. I think it's the wrong premise. It's Washington, D.C.-think to look at folks across the country—from states to citizens to farmers and ranchers, industry in general—and say they are evil or wrong." Pruitt's work at the EPA is part of the Trump Administration's larger project of rolling back decades of regulations across government. Read the full story on TIME.com.
