DEP Submits Comments On EPA’s Proposed Greenhouse Gas Regulation

On Wednesday the Department of Environmental Protection submitted its formal comments on EPA’s proposed Section 111(d) clean power greenhouse gas emission reduction regulations saying while it recognizes the authority for EPA to reduce carbon emissions, EPA’s proposed regulation does not do it it a lawful way and “inappropriately directs national energy policy.”

A copy of DEP’s comments is available online.  Other background information is available on DEP’s Clean Power Plan Comments webpage.
