U S House efforts led by Rep David McKinley aim to empower states to regulate fly ash from coal fired plants through the Coal Residuals Reuse and Management Act. EPA support is cautious while activists warn the bill curbs federal oversight and may risk water safety and public health. Senator Manchin backs the measure. Rockefeller urges cleaner, careful implementation.
