Clean Air Task Force, the National Wildlife Federation, Natural Resources Defense Council, and the Southern Environmental Law Center ("Joint Commenters") appreciate the opportunity to comment on the Environmental Protection Agency's proposed rule on New Source Performance Standards for Greenhouse Gas Emissions From New, Modified, and Reconstructed Fossil Fuel-Fired Electric Generating Units; Emission Guidelines for Greenhouse Gas Emissions From Existing Fossil Fuel-Fired Electric Generating Units; and Repeal of the Affordable Clean Energy Rule. Joint Commenters share an interest in managing climate change through reductions in greenhouse gas emissions from the power sector. Our comments (attached) focus on the appropriate treatment of biogenic emissions under these rules and specifically provide support for EPA's decision to not identify co-firing forest biomass as a best system of emission reduction. Joint Commenters urge EPA to finalize the strongest possible standards for power plants under Section 111 of the Clean Air Act. Please see attached comments.
