The Waters Advocacy Coalition (“WAC”) submits the following comments on the Environmental Protection Agency’s (“EPA”) and U.S.
The 34 member organizations and labor unions of the Transportation Construction Coalition (TCC) appreciate the administration’s attention to high diesel costs and their impact on businesses and working families. As you know, the federal user fee of 24.4 cents per gallon on diesel fuel remains a key source of revenue for the Highway Trust Fund (HTF). Therefore, the guidance developed by Treasury to implement the October 5 executive order, “Emergency Tax Relief on Diesel Fuel,” could greatly impact the HTF and stability of the federal surface transportation investment it provides.
The National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association (NSSGA) is pleased to provide comments to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) (the Agencies) on the Updated Definition of Waters of the United States (WOTUS). NSSGA is a member of the Waters Advocacy Coalition and incorporates its comments by reference. NSSGA commends the Agencies on this proposal.
We are writing on behalf of the American Alliance for Innovation (AAI) to provide the attached Principles of TSCA Risk Management and to ask EPA to consider these guiding principles as it develops future risk management regulations under Section 6 of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). AAI is a coalition of trade associations representing manufacturers, innovators, and downstream users across the U.S. economy that rely on chemicals and chemical-based products to support advanced manufacturing, infrastructure, energy, healthcare, and other essential sectors.
The undersigned organizations appreciate the opportunity to comment on the Securities and Exchange Commission's (the Commission) proposal to rescind in full the climate-related disclosure rule adopted in 2024 (Proposal). The undersigned organizations, representing companies of every size, in every sector, and across every region of the country, support full rescission.
The National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association (NSSGA) appreciates the opportunity to respond to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics’ (BTS) Request for Information (RFI) on the future of transportation data, statistics and analytical tools. NSSGA represents the producers of crushed stone, sand and gravel — the aggregates that form the literal foundation of the nation’s roads, bridges, airports and buildings. Aggregates are the largest freight commodity in the United States by weight.
On behalf of the undersigned organizations, we appreciate the opportunity to provide comments on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (“EPA”) proposed rule, “Update of Procedures for Implementing the National Environmental Policy Act and Assessing the Environmental Effects Abroad of EPA Actions.” We represent a diverse group of industries, including agriculture, energy, construction, manufacturing, mining, and more, all of which rely on an efficient federal permitting system to meet critical needs.
The American Cement Association, National Asphalt Pavement Association, National Ready Mixed Concrete Association, and the National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association appreciate the opportunity to respond to the Request for Information Regarding Products and Categories of Products Used in Housing Programs Pursuant to the Build America, Buy America Act (BABAA). We appreciate the opportunity to share the provisions included in BABAA related to the construction materials our members produce and to explain that these materials are exempt from the Buy America requirements in BABAA.
The National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association (NSSGA) appreciates the opportunity to comment on the U.S. Trade Representative’s (USTR) Request for Comments in Docket No. USTR-2026-0067 regarding Section 301 investigations into structural excess capacity and production in manufacturing sectors.
The National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association (NSSGA), is pleased to submit these comments on the Army Corps of Engineers’ (Corps)’ request for input on potential future changes to nationwide permits (NWPs). NSSGA continues to believe the size limits are too small and that aggregates should have its own permit, separate from other mining. NSSGA is also signing onto multindustry comments and incorporates these by reference.
