EPA to undue Obama era overreach by repealing "Clean Power Plan"
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/10/...-plan.html
Quote:EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt on Tuesday formally proposed repealing the Obama administration’s “Clean Power Plan,” in a move to ease regulations on coal-fired power plants.
The EPA said the move to repeal would facilitate new developments of U.S. energy resources and reduce unnecessary rules that have curbed their development.
“We are committed to righting the wrongs of the Obama administration by cleaning the regulatory slate,” Pruitt said in a statement Tuesday.
The EPA said in a statement that the agency wants to declare that the Clean Power Plan exceeded the government's authority.
Quote:Pruitt signaled Tuesday that the proposal will prompt further review and possibily a new set of rules.
“The Obama administration pushed the bounds of their authority so far with the CPP that the Supreme Court issued a historic stay of the rule, preventing its devastating effects to be imposed on the American people while the rule is being challenged in court,” Pruitt said in a statement. “... Any replacement rule will be done carefully, properly, and with humility, by listening to all those affected by the rule.”
