2060-AW72 202504 Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions 2060 Office of Air and Radiation OAR 2000 Environmental Protection Agency EPA Treatment of Data Influenced by Exceptional Events: Rule Revisions

Consistent with the EPA Administrator’s regulatory agenda announcement in March 2025, the EPA proposes to revise the Exceptional Events Rule to incorporate certain regulatory and implementation flexibilities as well as prioritize the allowance of prescribed fires. The Exceptional Events Rule implements Clean Air Act section 319(b), which outlines a pathway for air agencies to request the exclusion of air quality monitoring data influenced by exceptional events from certain regulatory actions.
