‘Grandfather’ Pollution Limits to Stay Suspended

WASHINGTON (CN) - The Environmental Protection Agency plans to suspend "grandfather" provisions in the Implementation of New Source Review program for nine more months.

If not suspended, the provisions would allow the agency to consider applications for new source particulate matter emitters received before July 10, 2008 to be reviewed under the agency's less restrictive 1997 policy which allowed particulate matter up to 10 micrometers, rather than recently adopted standards which limit particulate matter to 2.5 micrometers.
