US environmental regulators confirm DC has no major power plants or incinerators

The US environmental regulators formally accepted statements from the District of Columbia. These statements confirm that DC does not have large trash incinerators, oil and gas facilities, or power plants that require special air quality plans.

This is a routine administrative step. It means the District of Columbia does not need to create specific air quality plans for these types of industrial facilities. Other jurisdictions with such facilities must develop and submit those plans.
