Natural Gas Tax Repeal Act

HR 484, the Natural Gas Tax Repeal Act, repeals Section 136 of the Clean Air Act, which established a methane emissions and waste reduction incentive program for natural gas systems. This directly affects natural gas operators who previously participated in the program by ending their eligibility for associated incentives. The bill also rescinds any unobligated funds allocated under that program before its repeal. The change removes a federal requirement for the industry to reduce methane emissions through this specific incentive mechanism.
