Letter to Chemical Stakeholders – Prioritization of Water and Wastewater Utilities

Regan sent a letter to chemical sector stakeholders encouraging chemical manufacturers and suppliers to prioritize shipments of chlorine and other water treatment chemicals for water and wastewater utilities. This request was in response to a series of force majeure events affecting the production and distribution of chlorine products in a number of states.
