The EPA, like ATF, IRS, DOT, DOJ and many other alphabet agencies, are part of the executive branch, I.E. they answer to the president. Congress has incorrectly relinquished much of its' authority to the these autonomous bureaucrats and allowed them to come up with their own rules and regulations as they see fit. They thumb their nose at Congress and get away with it for the most part, (remember Lois Lerner?). The only thing Congress truly controls is the funding for these agencies, and as we've seen, they do a lousy job of it.

A loud, unified voice, sending a steady stream of messages to our representatives to back up the efforts of organizations like SEMA, will get their attention and maybe help get some of this stupid stuff off the table.

That is the petition to the Whitehouse. This is a different document and will be sent to members of Congress. It stands at 45,561 as I write this and needs to be signed as well. Comments can be left there also.
