The Department of Environmental Protection is sponsoring a listening session September 25 on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s proposed Clean Power Plan regulations to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
DEP is holding the listening session to gather comments about the proposal prior to submitting its comments to EPA.
In April DEP submitted a white paper to EPA on this issue in an early round of comments solicited by EPA. Vincent Brisini, DEP Deputy for Waste, Air, Radiation and Remediation, also made a presentation to DEP’s Citizens Advisory Council in July on the impact of the proposed rule on Pennsylvania.
Registered speakers at the listening session will be allowed up to 15 minutes to present their comments to DEP on EPA’s proposed Clean Power Plan rulemaking.
The listening session will start at 9:00 a.m. in the Honors Suite, 333 Market Street, Harrisburg.
If you are interested in providing comments to DEP, contact Tammey Adams by sending an email to: taadams@pa.gov or call 717-772-2725 by September 22.
