NOPP Deadline Extension for Coal Plants

The EPA is extending the date for existing steam electric power plants to decide whether to submit a notice of planned participation (NOPP) for the permanent cessation of coal combustion subcategory under the 2024 Supplemental Steam Electric Reconsideration Rule. If you run one of these plants, you get extra time before you must tell the government you plan to stop burning coal, which gives breathing room for planning and avoids rushing paperwork.
