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.

Judge Sets Date for Vote on Bankrupt PG&E

LCG, March 27, 2002-June 17 is the tentative date for ballots to be sent to PG&E creditors, as chosen by U.S Bankruptcy Judge Dennis Montali. Creditors will be given an opportunity to vote on how PG&E's bankruptcy will be dealt with.

Two plans have been proposed regarding how to facilitate PG&E's emergence from bankruptcy. The company has an estimated $13.2 billion debt and filed for bankruptcy protection in April of last year.

PG&E suggested redistributing many of its assets into newly created subsidiaries. It plans to have 3 of four new companies answer to the more lenient Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) instead of the California Public Utilities Commission (PUC).

The PUC formulated an alternate plan based on refinancing, similar to what was done to bail out Southern California Edison. The PUC also wants to keep PG&E's hydro and nuclear power under state oversight.

While no dates have been solidified, the vote should allow PG&E to come out of bankruptcy by its 2003 goal.
