## Summary

**This bill would require the EPA to publish final implementation rules and guidance at the same time it issues any new or revised national ambient air quality standard.** It also pauses use of a new standard in preconstruction permit reviews until that guidance is available, and it creates a narrow timing rule for the 2024 PM2.5 standard.
