Assessment

In the Spring 2022 Unified Agenda of Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions released on June 21, 2022 by the White House Office of Management and Budget's Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OMB/OIRA), the EPA's target dates for publishing Notices of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRMs) for Clean Air Act Section 111 carbon pollution rules were scheduled for March 2023 (spring 2023). This included both RIN 2060-AV10 (existing fossil fuel-fired electric generating units) and RIN 2060-AV09 (new, modified, and reconstructed electric generating units), directly confirming the claim.

OMB/OIRA Spring 2022 Unified Agenda entry for RIN 2060-AV10 listed a projected NPRM timetable of March 2023 (03/00/2023) for existing power plant greenhouse gas emission guidelines.
OMB/OIRA Spring 2022 Unified Agenda entry for RIN 2060-AV09 listed a projected NPRM timetable of March 2023 (03/00/2023) for new, modified, and reconstructed power plant greenhouse gas emission standards.
