Scott Koertner (Federal On-Scene Coordinator for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 7) submits a Notice of Federal Interest (NOFI) to HF Sinclair Midstream regarding this morning’s incident at the Kansas City Terminal. He explains that the NOFI formally establishes EPA’s role in overseeing the response as the lead federal agency, but emphasizes this is a procedural step only - the EPA is not federalizing the incident. This is a Drill!
