    The Department of Justice announced a proposed legal agreement, or consent decree, in a lawsuit against The Dow Chemical Company, Union Carbide Corp, and Performance Materials, NA, Inc. The lawsuit, filed under the Clean Air Act, accuses these companies of violating environmental regulations at their plants in Louisiana and Texas. The proposed consent decree outlines a requirement for the companies to carry out corrective actions, pay a $3 million fine, and complete environmental projects in Louisiana. The public is invited to comment on this proposal until 30 days after the announcement.

    The government wants three companies to fix what they did wrong to the air and pay money for it. They are also asking people to tell them what they think about this plan.

    The Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) has updated the regulations for its Office of Environmental Quality Management Fund. These updates are intended to clarify the regulations' meanings, modernize them to align with CEQ's current practices, and remove outdated provisions. The regulations now include new definitions for key terms and improve the explanation of policies and procedures related to environmental projects and study contracts. CEQ has determined that these changes will not have a significant impact on small entities or require an environmental impact statement.

    Simple Explanation

    The Council on Environmental Quality has made some updates to their rules to make things clearer and more up-to-date, like explaining how they can spend money on environmental projects. However, they didn't mention how much they can spend or how to keep a close eye on it, which might cause problems later.
