The EPA is hitting pause on some new pollution rules for iron and steel factories, giving them 90 extra days before they have to follow certain 2025 deadlines. This gives the EPA time to rethink parts of the rules and helps the factories avoid rushing to meet new requirements. If you work in or with these steel plants, expect a short delay but no immediate cost changes yet.
