Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency relating to "Hazardous and Solid Waste Management System: Disposal of Coal Combustion Residuals From Electric Utilities; Legacy CCR Surface Impoundments".

Bill 118 hjres 152, also known as the "Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency relating to 'Hazardous and Solid Waste Management System: Disposal of Coal Combustion Residuals From Electric Utilities; Legacy CCR Surface Impoundments'", is a piece of legislation that seeks to overturn a rule proposed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regarding the disposal of coal combustion residuals (CCR) from electric utilities.

The rule in question, titled "Hazardous and Solid Waste Management System: Disposal of Coal Combustion Residuals From Electric Utilities; Legacy CCR Surface Impoundments", aims to regulate the disposal of CCR, which are byproducts of burning coal for electricity generation. Specifically, the rule addresses the management of legacy CCR surface impoundments, which are storage sites for coal ash and other waste materials.

Supporters of Bill 118 hjres 152 argue that the EPA's rule imposes unnecessary regulatory burdens on electric utilities and could lead to increased costs for consumers. They believe that the rule is overly restrictive and could hinder the ability of electric utilities to safely and efficiently manage CCR. Opponents of the bill, on the other hand, argue that the EPA's rule is necessary to protect public health and the environment. They believe that the regulation of CCR disposal is crucial in order to prevent contamination of water sources and other environmental hazards associated with improper waste management practices. Overall, Bill 118 hjres 152 represents a contentious debate over the balance between environmental protection and regulatory burdens on industries. The outcome of this legislation will have significant implications for the management of coal combustion residuals and the overall environmental impact of electric utilities in the United States.
