Title: Emission Guidelines for Greenhouse Gas Emissions From Fossil Fuel-Fired Existing Electric Generating Units 
Abstract:

On January 19, 2021, the D.C. Circuit Court issued an opinion vacating the Affordable Clean Energy Rule (found at 40 CFR part 60, subpart UUUUa) the previously applicable emission guidelines for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from existing electric generating units (i.e., EGUs). The EPA is working on a new set of emission guidelines for states to follow in submitting state plans to establish and implement standards of performance for greenhouse gas emissions from existing fossil fuel-fired EGUs.
