The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is extending the comment period for a proposed Settlement Agreement related to the Wyodak electric generating unit in Wyoming. Originally, the public was given until February 3, 2021, to provide feedback, but in response to a request, the deadline has been extended to March 5, 2021. This extension allows the public more time to submit their comments regarding the proposal. The agreement aims to resolve petitions for review filed by Wyoming and PacifiCorp, as mentioned in the Federal Register on January 4, 2021.
Simple Explanation
The EPA is giving people more time to share their thoughts about a plan to fix some issues with a power plant in Wyoming, so instead of having until early February, people now have until early March. This extra time helps make sure everyone who wants to can tell the EPA what they think.
