Government proposes one year pause on cleaner fuel conversions
The United States government plans a one year suspension of converting to cleaner fuels to save heating oil. Public hearings are set for September 6 and 7 with a decision after. The rule would halt converting plants from heating oil or sulfur oil to low sulfur and could be waived to protect health or meet air quality standards. Local Sierra Club leader Lawrence Mass supports flexibility but warns EPA policies could undermine air quality in the long run.
