                                 H.R. 4557
     Blocking Regulatory Interference from Closing Kilns Act of 2016

        As ordered reported by the House Committee on Energy and Commerce
                              on February 25, 2016


H.R. 4557 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.

Rules that would be affected by this legislation include:

    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 of time after ajudgement becomes final (and would no longer be 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.

Based on information from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), CBO estimates
that implementing this legislation would not have a significant effect on EPA's workload
and would have no significant effect on the budget.
