  • 2024-28530 — Clean Air Act Operating Permit Program; Order on Petition for Objection to State Operating Permit for Sundance Power Plant
    Type:Notice
    Citation:89 FR 96962
    Reading Time:about a minute or two

    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a notice about a decision regarding the Sundance Power Plant in Arizona. On November 6, 2024, the EPA's Administrator denied a petition from the Sierra Club that asked the EPA to oppose a Clean Air Act permit for the power plant issued by the local air quality authority in Pinal County. The Sierra Club's request was related to an operating permit for Arizona Public Service Company's Sundance Power Plant. If Sierra Club disagrees with the EPA's decision, they can seek judicial review with the U.S. Court of Appeals by February 4, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The EPA decided not to block a special permission for a power plant in Arizona, even though a group called the Sierra Club asked them to. If Sierra Club doesn't like this decision, they have until February 2025 to try and get a court to change it.

  • 2024-28741 — Pesticide Product Registration; Receipt of Applications for New Uses (October 2024)
    Type:Notice
    Citation:89 FR 96962
    Reading Time:about 3 minutes

    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has announced that it has received applications for new uses of pesticide products that contain already registered active ingredients. The EPA invites the public to comment on these applications before the deadline of January 6, 2025. The document lists specific registration applications from companies like Bayer CropScience, Corteva Agriscience, Nichino America, Inc., and BASF Corporation, detailing the proposed new uses for each pesticide product. This notice is in accordance with the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA).

    Simple Explanation

    The EPA is thinking about letting some companies like Bayer and BASF use their bug and weed-killing chemicals in new ways, and they want to hear what people think about this before deciding. They haven't explained exactly how they will use people's comments or why these new uses are needed, so some people might feel confused or worried about these changes.
