Bill > HJRes43

This resolution is a congressional action aimed at disapproving a specific rule issued by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regarding New Source Performance Standards for Volatile Organic Liquid Storage Vessels, including those used for petroleum storage. Specifically, the resolution targets a rule published in the Federal Register on October 15, 2024, and declares that this EPA rule shall have no force or effect. By using the congressional review process outlined in Chapter 8 of Title 5 of the United States Code, Congress is exercising its authority to review and potentially nullify federal agency regulations. The resolution effectively challenges the EPA's standards for regulating emissions and performance requirements for storage vessels that handle volatile organic liquids, suggesting that the lawmakers believe the rule is either unnecessary, overly burdensome, or not in the best interest of stakeholders such as industry or the public.
