UPDATE (1/8/2015): The White House has announced that EPA will not meet today’s deadline for issuing a final rule to limit carbon dioxide emissions from new power plants. Instead, the agency will not finalize the rule until mid-summer, skirting a statutory deadline that requires EPA to finalize the rule within one year of its proposal. On a press call Jan. 7, EPA officials told reporters it plans to finalize the rule at the same time it completes its related rules limiting carbon emissions from existing and modified power plants.
