re: #427 goddamnedfrank

Attempt implies intention, and in this case there simply was none.

See that? Straight from the EPA, unintended result, as in a technical consequence never actually contemplated. It appears that the side effect of the proposed rule was recognized early and temporary exemptions were effected until the rule was formally amended to fix this unforeseen technicality.

Therefore the assertion that the EPA didn’t want to exempt the dairy industry is simply untrue.

Uh-huh. The initial regulation would have applied to milk by accident. How does one accidentally include a thing by name in a regulation?

“oops, i didn’t mean to include milk”
“but you wrote milk. right there.”
“yep. total accident. i meant to write oil.”
