EPA Proposes Rule Changes to Coal Combustion Residuals (CCR) Requirements to Restore American Energy Dominance

LCG, April 10, 2026--The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced yesterday a rule proposing several revisions to the federal regulations governing the disposal of coal combustion residuals (CCR) and the beneficial use of CCR. The EPA designed the rule to encourage resource recovery, allow for site-specific considerations in permitting, and provide regulatory relief while continuing to protect human health and the environment. The EPA will be accepting comments on the rule for 60 days after publication in the Federal Register, and it will also hold an online public hearing on the rule.

California Delays Electricity Regulation Votes Again

LCG, March 7, 2002- California state power regulators postponed decisions on two energy regulation proposals yesterday.

The California Public Utilities Commission's Commissioner Carl Wood's proposal prohibits energy customers from renewing contracts, possibly forcing energy sellers out of California. A less extreme plan is that of Commissioner Jeff Brown's, which employs an "exit fee," enabling outside contracts to continue while charging a fee which would go to relieve some of the state's debt due to power purchases.

While many of the over 80,000 Californian businesses who opted to buy electricity from competitors saved a lot of money, consumers and some lawmakers insist businesses should buy electricity from the state so that residential and small business customers do not have to put up with higher energy prices. Others who support consumer choice applaud Brown's plan.

Wednesday's vote has been delayed until March 21st.
