EPA sets timeline for controversial air pollution rule
The rules have come under fire from industry groups, Republicans and some Democrats, who say they go too far and fear EPA lacks enough legal leeway to fix them.
A bipartisan group of House members floated legislation earlier this week that gives the agency 15 months to propose new “achievable” boiler regulations that are the “least burdensome” on industry.
Companies must be able to meet the new standards “under actual operating conditions,” the bill states, and it also extends the existing three-year compliance period for the regulations to five years.
