    Citation:90 FR 14207
    Reading Time:about 8 minutes

    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has announced a temporary halt to certain parts of a rule regarding emissions standards for iron and steel manufacturing facilities. This decision came after several objections from industry groups who argued that some requirements were infeasible, based on new data received after the rule was finalized. The EPA is reconsidering parts of the rule related to work practices and opacity limits, which are rules on how visible pollution from certain processes should be. This temporary halt is set to last for 90 days, from April 2, 2025, to July 1, 2025, while the EPA reviews these objections.

    Simple Explanation

    The EPA is hitting the pause button on some new pollution rules for making iron and steel because companies said they were too hard to follow. They want to take 90 days to think about it starting in April 2025.
