  • 2024-29246 — Denial of Request for Attainment Date Extension, Finding of Failure To Attain, and Reclassification of an Area in Utah as Moderate for the 2015 Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standards
    Type:Rule
    Citation:89 FR 101483
    Reading Time:about 30 minutes

    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has decided not to extend the deadline for the Uinta Basin in Utah to meet the 2015 ozone air quality standards. Originally classified as a Marginal nonattainment area, the Uinta Basin failed to meet its ozone limits by the set date, so it will now be reclassified as a Moderate nonattainment area. As a result, Utah must revise its State Implementation Plan to include measures for achieving compliance by August 3, 2024. This decision took into account public comments, recent air quality data, and potential health impacts.

    Simple Explanation

    The EPA decided that the air in a part of Utah didn’t get clean enough as fast as it should have, so now Utah has to work harder to make the air better by next year.

    EnCap Investments L.P., Verdun Oil Company II LLC, XCL Resources Holdings, LLC, and EP Energy LLC have petitioned the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to change and remove certain prior approval requirements in a decision made on September 13, 2022. The companies argue that these requirements are unnecessary since they no longer operate in the affected area and claim the regulations negatively impact competition and investment. They also highlight significant changes in the competitive landscape of the Uinta Basin, such as increased production and changes in market participants. The FTC is seeking public comments on this petition until April 30, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    EnCap and some other companies asked a big government group called the FTC to change rules that they think are not needed anymore because they don't work in the area affected by these rules. They also think these rules make it hard for businesses to be competitive, and the FTC wants to know what people think about this by the end of April 2025.
