Biden Administration Proposed New Rules For Coal Power Plants
The new rule would overall benefit the public's health for communities surrounding the power plants.
The Biden Administration suggested stricter rules for harmful pollutants from coal power plants.
The Environmental Protection Agency proposed slashing mercury pollution and harmful particle pollution from coal fired power plant emissions by up to 70%.
The EPA also proposed requiring constant emission monitoring systems that would give the agency real-time data on what nearby power plants are releasing.
The new rule would overall benefit the public’s health for communities surrounding the power plants and require plants to cut down on planet polluting caused from burning coal.
