| 96-hr-4557 | 96 | hr | 4557 | A bill to amend the Clean Air Act to provide for certain temporary emergency suspensions of applicable implementation plan provisions for periods of five years in the case of certain fuel burning stationary sources, and for other purposes. | Environmental Protection | 1979-06-21 | 1979-06-21 | Referred to House Committee on Interstate and Foreign Commerce. | House | Rep. Applegate, Douglas [D-OH-18] | OH | D | A000214 | 1 | Amends the Clean Air Act, with regard to State implementation plans for national primary ambient air quality standards, to authorize the President, as well as the Governor of a State, to issue a temporary emergency suspension of any part of such plan applicable to a fuel burning stationary source. Requires either the President or the Governor to issue such an emergency suspension if either finds that foreign imports of fuels used by such source have reached an excessive level and that imports can be reduced by the emergency suspension. Requires such suspension to remain in effect for a maximum of five years, or longer as the owner or operator of such source may persuade the suspension issuer as reasonable. Allows the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency in a disapproval order to require a lesser period if the suspension is issued by a Governor. Limits any suspension for violation of any national ambient air quality standard to not more than four months. | 2024-02-05T14:30:09Z | https://www.congress.gov/bill/96th-congress/house-bill/4557 |
