US environmental regulators correct typos in rule repealing mercury emission standards
What happened
The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a correction to a rule that repealed specific amendments to mercury and air toxics standards for power plants. This correction only fixes typographical errors and minor omissions, and does not change the substance of the repeal.
Why it matters
This document is a minor administrative update. It confirms that the EPA's earlier decision to repeal certain amendments to the Mercury and Air Toxics Standards (MATS) remains in effect. The actual structural change happened when the EPA repealed those amendments, not with this correction.
The signal
Watch for any future EPA actions that might reinstate or further modify the Mercury and Air Toxics Standards.
