Regulation name update for environmental screening reference takes effect January 1, 2027

Plain-language summary · AI-assisted

A future amendment will update the name of a referenced environmental assessment regulation within the rules governing alternative low-carbon fuel approvals. Specifically, the citation to 'Part II.3 Projects — Designations and Exemptions' will be replaced with 'Designation of Part II.3 and Part II.4 Projects' to reflect a renaming of that instrument. This is a textual housekeeping change and does not alter the substance of which approval pathways qualify. Facilities that rely on an environmental compliance approval obtained through an environmental screening process under the referenced regulation should be aware that the citation name in this rule will change, though the underlying pathway remains the same.
