Summary

A bill to amend the Emergency Planning and Community Right-To-Know Act of 1986 to exclude certain air emissions from emergency notification requirements, and for other purposes.

Plain-language summary

This bill would change the Emergency Planning and Community Right-To-Know Act of 1986, a federal law that requires companies to report certain chemical releases to communities. The bill specifically aims to exclude certain air emissions from the emergency notification requirements that currently apply. This means some airborne chemical releases would no longer trigger mandatory alerts to local communities and emergency responders. The bill is currently in the introduced stage, meaning it has been formally submitted to Congress but has not yet been assigned to a for review.
