EPA mandates stricter regulations and permits to limit stormwater pollution from Los Alamos to the Rio Grande.

The EPA has mandated stricter regulation and a permit for Los Alamos National Laboratory and Los Alamos County to limit pollution from stormwater runoff, which has been contaminating the Rio Grande and other waterways. While environmental groups praised the move, they noted it only addresses current pollution without fully tackling years of contamination. The permit will enforce limits on pollution, monitoring, and reporting.
