Rule
Summary
The EPA is updating Oregon’s air quality plan by fixing two typos and refreshing the official materials you can check out. This update doesn’t change any rules or costs but makes sure the public and officials have the right info starting June 22, 2026. If you live in Oregon or work with air quality rules, this keeps everything clear and official.
Analyzed Economic Effects
4 provisions identified: 4 benefits, 0 costs, 0 mixed.
Oregon SIP IBR Updated and Corrected
The EPA updated the materials incorporated by reference (IBR) into Oregon's State Implementation Plan (SIP) as of February 1, 2026, and made the update effective June 22, 2026. The action also corrects two typographical errors: replacing the prior citation “page 11” with the correct “Permit Condition 14” for an Intel Corporation approval, and retitling LRAPA entry 13-005 from “General Duties and Powers of Board and Director” to the correct title “Authority of the Agency.”
No New Rules or Costs Added
The EPA states this update only codifies materials previously submitted and approved by Oregon and does not impose additional requirements beyond those imposed by State law. The action therefore does not change existing rules or costs for regulated parties in Oregon.
Where to Inspect Updated SIP Materials
The updated SIP materials (IBR) are available for public inspection at EPA Region 10, 1200 Sixth Avenue, Suite 155, Seattle, WA 98101 (call (206) 553-0256 and schedule by emailing the contact listed in the rule) and at www.regulations.gov. Region 10's official hours are Monday–Friday 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., excluding Federal holidays.
No Significant Impact on Small Businesses
The EPA certified that this action does not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory Flexibility Act. The update approves previously effective state rules and makes minor corrections without imposing new costs.

2026-19072, Rescission of the Greenhouse Gas Findings for Fossil Fuel-Fired Power Plants and Repeal of Regulations for Power Plant Greenhouse Gas Emissions Under Clean Air Act Section 111
The EPA is proposing to cancel all greenhouse gas rules for fossil fuel power plants, saying the law doesn’t let them regulate these emissions for climate reasons. This change affects power plants across the U.S. and could impact future pollution limits and costs. Comments on this proposal are open until November 2, 2026, so now’s the time to speak up!
2026-19071, Partial Repeal of the Carbon Pollution Standards for Fossil Fuel-Fired Electric Generating Units
The EPA is rolling back most of the 2024 rules that limited carbon pollution from fossil fuel power plants. This change affects coal and gas plants by easing some strict limits on emissions and carbon capture technology. The new rules kick in on November 16, 2026, potentially saving money for power plants but raising questions about pollution control.
2026-18317, Updated Definition of “Waters of the United States”
The purpose of this supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking is for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Department of the Army ("the agencies") to supplement and seek additional comment on certain aspects of an earlier proposal, published on November 20, 2025, to revise the regulations defining the scope of waters federally covered under the Clean Water Act in light of the U.S. Supreme Court's 2023 decision in Sackett v. Environmental Protection Agency. As stated in the agencies' November 20, 2025 Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM), the agencies intend for this rulemaking to provide greater regulatory certainty and increase Clean Water Act program predictability and consistency by clarifying the definition of "waters of the United States." After consideration of the public comments received on the NPRM, the agencies are issuing this notice to supplement the NPRM with additional regulatory options on certain aspects of the proposed rule.
2026-14112, Amendments and Nonconformance Penalties for Model Year 2027 and Later Heavy-Duty Highway Engines and Amendments to Inducement Provisions for SCR-Equipped Diesel Engines
Starting with model year 2027, the EPA is updating rules for big truck engines to make sure they last longer and pollute less. They’re also letting engine makers pay penalties if their engines don’t meet standards, and tightening rules for special pollution-control systems on diesel engines. These changes affect truck and engine makers and kick in soon, with public feedback due by August 29, 2026.
2026-13667, Minor New Source Review Program Air Permitting Public Participation Requirements for State Implementation Plans
The EPA wants to give states more freedom to decide how much public input is needed when approving small air pollution sources or changes. This means local air agencies can tailor public participation to fit their community’s needs while still protecting air quality. If you’re involved in air permits, watch for comment deadlines and possible virtual hearings this summer!
2026-13263, Revisions To Establish the Sixth Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCMR 6) for Public Water Systems
The EPA is rolling out the sixth Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCMR 6) to check for new, sneaky chemicals in public drinking water. Big water systems serving 3,300+ people and some smaller ones will test for 30 different contaminants, including certain PFAS and pesticides, to keep our water safe. Comments and feedback are open until late August 2026, and the EPA will host fun online meetings to chat about the plan!
