EPA is looking to make it easier to turn abandoned scrap tires into fuel as part of the Trump administration’s “unleashing American energy” agenda.
The agency released a proposed rule Friday that would ensure all fuels made from scrap tires are subject to a uniform set of stringent air regulations.
“Our latest proposal provides a commonsense approach to better clean up scrap tires and realize their full potential as fuel,” Thomas Croci, acting assistant administrator of the Office of Land and Emergency Management, said in a statement.
