First Meeting of Mercury Rule Workgroup Set for October 14

The Department of Environmental Protection published notice of the first meeting of a new Mercury Rule Workgroup that is charged with helping to develop a Pennsylvania-specific regulation to set limits on mercury emissions from coal-fired power plants.

The Workgroup will meet October 14 (see Calendar of Events for time, place).

DEP said it would be holding a series of meetings with the Mercury Rule Workgroup, including representatives of the agency’s existing Air Quality Technical Advisory Committee and the Citizens Advisory Council to discuss information and issues relevant to the mercury rulemaking process.
