C3 Solutions, in its New Source Review 101 policy paper, outlines why we should reform New Source Review.
- New Source Review, while originally created to protect air quality, has become a burdensome regulation that hurts businesses and the environment alike.
- The private sector is taking significant steps to make manufacturing more efficient, competitive, and environmentally-friendly.
- By streamlining the process of New Source Review, we can improve air quality and encourage businesses to adopt cleaner manufacturing practices.
“The Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) New Source Review (NSR) is a complex regulation that affects manufacturing facilities and power plants in the United States. Before making modifications to existing facilities, a facility must first complete New Source Review and receive a permit to ensure that there are not significant increases in pollution.”
