This joint resolution aims to nullify a specific rule promulgated by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) through the Congressional Review Act. The targeted rule, titled "California State Nonroad Engine Pollution Control Standards; Commercial Harbor Craft Regulations; Notice of Decision," was published in the Federal Register on January 10, 2025. By exercising its authority under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, Congress seeks to prevent the implementation of this particular EPA decision. The resolution explicitly states that if passed, the EPA rule concerning California's nonroad engine pollution standards for commercial harbor craft would have no legal standing. This action would effectively block the federal approval of California's regulations for emissions from these vessels.
