EPA Proposes Greenhouse Gases Reporting Rule

On March 10, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released a proposed rule for the Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gases (GHGs). This rule was authorized by the FY2008 Consolidated Appropriations Act, which directed EPA to use its existing Clean Air Act authority to develop a reporting rule for emissions "resulting from upstream production and downstream sources." It will be available for a 60-day public comment period once published in the Federal Register.
