Proposed EPA rulings, 650 pages in 30 minutes | What you need to know

In our recent webinar, Karen Marsh, Validere’s Senior Carbon Strategies Advisor and former EPA rulings author, highlighted key takeaways from the EPA’s extensive 650-page proposal for revising GHG reporting. She delves into the alignment of these revisions with the Inflation Reduction Act, provides guidance for operators on fee calculations, and underscores the importance of using operational data alongside emissions data.?

“The new section in the Clean Air Act is looking to get more accurate emissions data reported for methane emissions. These emissions are going to impact emissions inventory, how the US evaluates themselves against their different emissions reduction goals, but also directly impacts you,” said Marsh during the webinar. “It’s very important, whether you’re looking at environmental benefits or reducing a fee, to have the most accurate information possible.”

Watch the full recording to explore the proposed revisions to Subpart W of EPA’s Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program.
