Registration Open for EPA Virtual Public Hearing on EPA's Supplemental Proposal to Cut Methane Pollution to Protect Communities, Combat Climate Change, and Bolster American Innovation

WASHINGTON (December 6, 2022) – Registration opens today for EPA's virtual public hearing on the Agency's supplemental proposal to strengthen its proposed standards to cut methane and other harmful air pollution from oil and natural gas operations. The updates would provide more comprehensive requirements to reduce climate and health-harming air pollution, including from hundreds of thousands of existing oil and gas sources nationwide. It would promote the use of innovative methane detection technologies and other cutting-edge solutions, many of which are being developed and deployed by small businesses providing good-paying jobs across the United States.
