Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency relating to "Waste Emissions Charge for Petroleum and Natural Gas Systems: Procedures for Facilitating Compliance, Including Netting and Exemptions".

HJRES 228 is a congressional disapproval resolution targeting an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rule published on November 18, 2024 (89 Fed. Reg. 91094). The resolution seeks to block the EPA rule titled "Waste Emissions Charge for Petroleum and Natural Gas Systems: Procedures for Facilitating Compliance, Including Netting and Exemptions," which would have established specific procedures for emissions charges in the oil and gas sector. If passed, this resolution would prevent the EPA rule from taking effect, effectively nullifying its requirements for petroleum and natural gas companies. This is a procedural measure under federal law, not a new policy.
