    The Department of Justice has lodged a proposed First Amendment to a Consent Decree with the District Court for Eastern Pennsylvania concerning a lawsuit against Lehigh Cement Company LLC and Lehigh White Cement Company, LLC. This amendment involves extending the deadlines for choosing between building new kilns or retrofitting existing ones at the Mitchell facility. It designates new kiln construction as the default if the decision is not made in time. Public comments on the amendment are open for 30 days, and the document can be accessed online or through a mail request.

People can share their thoughts on this change for 30 days.

    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve a revision to New York's State Implementation Plan (SIP) for ozone air quality standards, specifically for the Lehigh Cement Company in Glens Falls, New York. This revision involves implementing controls for nitrogen oxide (NOX) emissions from a cement kiln, requiring them to use Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT). The proposed regulations are part of efforts to meet ozone standards and follow a nationwide consent decree. The EPA determined that this plan would not interfere with National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) or other requirements of the Clean Air Act.

    Simple Explanation

    The EPA wants to make sure that a cement company in New York uses special tools to make less air pollution, so the air stays clean and healthy for everyone to breathe.
