U.S. EPA Responds to Summit Petroleum Corp. Decision

On June 3, the U.S. EPA issued a final rule, with a revision to the regulations applicable to permitting of stationary sources of air pollution under the New Source Review and title V programs in the Clean Air Act.

The final rule is in response to Summit Petroleum Corp. v. EPA decision, which caused the meaning of the term “adjacent” to be in flux since 2012.

For more on this important rule see this article from OMA environmental counsel Bricker and Eckler.
