Description

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) invites public comment on the potential for expanded use of advanced and emerging technologies for methane emissions quantification in EPA's Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program (GHGRP). These technologies are an important part of EPA's GHGRP, including under the recently finalized amendments for Petroleum and Natural Gas Systems. EPA intends to use the feedback received in response to this RFI to consider whether it is appropriate to undertake further rulemaking addressing the use of advanced measurement technologies in the GHGRP for petroleum and natural gas systems and municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills, beyond the current role provided in existing rules for these technologies.Comments must be received on or before 28 October 2024.89 Federal Register (FR) 70177, 29 August 2024:_x000D_
