EPA proposes indirect sources rule to curb air pollution
EPA would require states to pre screen big projects like shopping centers ball parks highways and airports for potential indirect air pollution. NRDC accuses EPA and OMB of delay while the agency defends its move as industry friendly and aimed at keeping growth from creating violations. The plan lets states substitute approvable plans later for a federal program and focuses on placement and design to avoid excessive engine emissions.
