                                  H.R. 1917
     Blocking Regulatory Interference From Closing Kilns Act of 2017

         As ordered reported by the House Committee on Energy and Commerce
                               on December 6, 2017


 H.R. 1917 would extend compliance dates for entities affected by any final rule
 addressing national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants (NESHAP) under the
 Clean Air Act for brick, structural clay, and ceramic products manufactured in kilns.

 The rules that would be affected are:

     NESHAP for Brick and Structural Clay Products Manufacturing and NESHAP for
       Clay Ceramics Manufacturing, published in the Federal Register on
       October 26, 2015;

     NESHAP for Brick and Structural Clay Products Manufacturing and NESHAP for
       Clay Ceramics Manufacturing: Correction, published in the Federal Register on
       December 4, 2015; and

     Any final rule that succeeds or amends those rules.

 The NESHAP rule published on October 26, 2015, requires manufacturers of brick,
 structural clay, and ceramic products to reduce emissions of hazardous air pollutants from
 kilns.

 The bill would extend compliance dates for manufacturers to allow for resolution of the
 judicial review process. Manufacturers would not need to comply with the rule until a
 specified period after a judgment becomes final (that is, the judgment is not subject to
 further appeal or review) for all legal actions filed during the 60 days after the final rule
 is published in the Federal Register.

 Using information from the Environmental Protection Agency about current activities
 related to NESHAP, CBO estimates that the costs of modifying existing regulations to
 comply with H.R. 1917 would be minimal and would not have a significant effect on the
 agency's workload or spending.
