EPA's "endangerment finding" rescission looms
""This amounts to the largest act of deregulation in the history of the United States," Zeldin tells the paper. "The final rule will be published once it has completed interagency review and been signed by the Administrator," EPA told Axios on Tuesday. The rule is certain to draw litigation that will play out over years. State of play: The agency is planning to remove the finding with respect to motor vehicle emissions specifically."
"The big picture: EPA did not confirm the timing, but pointed to Administrator Lee Zeldin's comments in the WSJ piece. But that could bring challenges to regulation of emissions from power plants, oil and gas sites, and beyond. What we're watching: The White House Office of Management and Budget website still lists the rule as under review. Meetings with outside parties looking to influence the plan are scheduled through Thursday, but that's not proof of anything."
EPA did not confirm a publication date for the rule and referenced Administrator Lee Zeldin's characterization of the change as the largest act of deregulation in United States history. The EPA said the final rule will be published after interagency review and signature by the Administrator. The rule is expected to prompt litigation that could play out over years. The agency plans to remove the finding specifically regarding motor vehicle emissions, which could affect regulation of emissions from power plants, oil and gas sites, and other sources. OMB lists the rule as under review, and meetings with outside parties are scheduled.
