Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency relating to "New Source Performance Standards Review for Volatile Organic Liquid Storage Vessels (Including Petroleum Liquid Storage Vessels)".
This joint resolution seeks to exercise congressional authority under the Congressional Review Act to reject a recent rule promulgated by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The targeted rule, published in the Federal Register on October 15, 2024, pertains to the New Source Performance Standards Review for Volatile Organic Liquid Storage Vessels , which includes petroleum liquid storage vessels. If passed by both chambers of Congress and signed into law, this resolution would effectively disapprove the EPA's rule , rendering it without any legal force or effect. This action would prevent the implementation of the EPA's updated standards for emissions from these storage vessels, thereby maintaining the status quo regarding these regulations.
