Bill Summary
Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency relating to "Waste Emissions Charge for Petroleum and Natural Gas Systems: Procedures for Facilitating Compliance, Including Netting and Exemptions".
AI Summary
This joint resolution aims to disapprove a specific rule issued by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) concerning waste emissions charges in the petroleum and natural gas industry. Specifically, the resolution targets the EPA's "Waste Emissions Charge for Petroleum and Natural Gas Systems: Procedures for Facilitating Compliance, Including Netting and Exemptions" rule published on November 18, 2024. By passing this resolution, Congress would effectively nullify the EPA rule, preventing it from having any legal force or effect. This action falls under Chapter 8 of Title 5 of the United States Code, which provides a mechanism for Congress to review and potentially overturn federal agency regulations. The resolution represents a legislative check on executive branch rulemaking, allowing Congress to challenge regulatory actions it believes are inappropriate or overreaching.
