H.J.Res. 61 became law 87 days after introduction, with cosponsors, all Republicans
Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency relating to "National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Rubber Tire Manufacturing".
Written by the Congressional Research Service [2]. 89 words.
This joint resolution removes emission regulations on hazardous air pollutants under the rubber tire manufacturing source category, specifically from the rubber processing subcategory. The joint resolution nullifies the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rule titled National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Rubber Tire Manufacturing , which addresses the decision in Louisiana Environmental Action Network v. EPA (D.C. Cir. 2020) that requires the EPA to address unregulated emissions from a major source category when it conducts the 8-year technology review. The rule implemented emissions standards for the rubber processing subcategory.
