Issues: Energy Business, Consumers, and Employees

“The regulatory decisions the EPA makes now will determine if there are enough resources to meet tomorrow’s energy needs. We must recognize the need for time and technology development before taking our nation down an energy path that prioritizes speed over practicality. It is also imperative that the EPA follow the law on these proposed regulations and SBAR panel, not only to hear directly from but to actively consider and respond accordingly to the unique impacts it will have on small electric utilities as they maintain electric reliability and affordability.

We urge the EPA to ensure that the findings of the SBAR panel and comments on the recommended regulatory alternatives are fully addressed and accounted for prior to its final rulemaking. It is critical that the EPA alleviate the concerns raised by affected small entities and consider the unique impacts these proposed regulations will have on small electric utilities as they maintain electric reliability and affordability.”
