More than a week after President Trump’s administration ordered a temporary freeze on grants issued by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, officials said the action has been lifted, according to media reports.

Following the review, the grants are “proceeding normally, and nothing has been delayed,” McCabe said in the email, quoted by the newspaper.
