Updated: Feb 13, 2025
Summary
This bill amends the Water Resources Development Act of 2007 to modify regulatory actions concerning hydraulic fracturing within specific river basins. It targets the Susquehanna River Basin Commission, the Delaware River Basin Commission, and the Interstate Commission on the Potomac River Basin. The legislation explicitly prohibits these commissions from finalizing, implementing, or enforcing any regulations related to hydraulic fracturing . This restriction applies unless such regulations are issued directly by the State in which they are to be implemented or enforced. The bill effectively transfers the authority for regulating hydraulic fracturing in these basins from the interstate commissions to the individual state governments, overriding provisions in their respective compacts.
