Addressing regional haze and the impact of coal factory closings on Native American lands, McCarthy explained that there was a conversation taking place. "Proposals to tribes for other opportunities have been put forth," she said.

It was no surprise that a question was posed about the Keystone Pipeline. McCarthy said, "The administration is carefully looking at this. The EPA must be honest on this. It's my obligation to hear all the voices and to keep peace in the EPA family."

For her closing thoughts, McCarthy pronounced succinctly, "Climate change will not be solved over the next three years, but it will be engaged. That I can tell you."
