EPA to reconsider air quality rules amid Texas diesel price crisis
Original: EPA to ‘reconsider’ air quality rules as Texas faces diesel price ‘disaster’
The Environmental Protection Agency says it will reconsider air quality rules at a time when Texas is dealing with sharply elevated diesel prices, which officials are calling a disaster. The move raises questions about whether federal emissions standards could be eased to help lower fuel and transport costs, and it is drawing attention from industry and environmental groups alike.
Why now: A federal regulator easing pollution rules while a major state faces a fuel cost crisis is economically and politically significant.
