State Senator Yaw Seeks to Rename DEP to ‘Environmental Services’
HARRISBURG — WHTM is reporting… A Pennsylvania lawmaker wants to change the name of the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection. Republican Senator Gene Yaw is introducing a bill that will change the department’s name to the “Department of Environmental Services.” “Rather than being a partner, DEP has become an enforcer and has compromised the open and working relationship it once had with the people it serves,” Yaw said in a statement. Yaw disagreed with some climate change policies during Tom Wolf’s governorship.
