Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency relating to New Source Performance Standards for the Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry and National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for the Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry and Group I & II Polymers and Resins Industry.
About This Bill
Committee
Latest Action · May 28, 2024
Referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce.
This joint resolution would disapprove an Environmental Protection Agency rule that sets pollution control standards for synthetic organic chemical manufacturers and polymers and resins producers. The rule, published in May 2024, established New Source Performance Standards and hazardous air pollutant emission limits for these industries. If passed, the resolution would cancel the EPA rule entirely, preventing it from taking effect or being enforced. The resolution was introduced by Representative Clay Higgins of Louisiana and referred to the House Energy and Commerce Committee. No specific funding or implementation timeline is mentioned in the resolution itself, as it simply seeks to reject the EPA's regulatory action.
