Risk Management Programs under the Clean Air Act; Common Sense Approach to Chemical Accident Prevention

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is initiating a new rulemaking to reconsider the current Risk Management Program (RMP) rule requirements. The agency is providing notice of this proposed rulemaking, which will align with agency priorities to ensure clean air, land, and water for every American; restore American energy dominance; and promote cooperative federalism and cross-agency partnership while reducing regulatory burden on facilities.
