"Starting Friday, there is no one in charge of the Environmental Protection Agency’s Office of Water.
As E&E News reports, the office has actually gone without a confirmed head since February 2011. In the interim, Assistant Administrator Nancy Stoner has served as acting head. But on Friday, she hit the legal limit on how long an unconfirmed leader can hold an office. The Obama Administration’s nominee to head the office is Ken Kopocis — a former Capitol Hill staffer personally respected by both sides — and has been in limbo for 1,148 days and counting."
