CATF Statement on New Pennsylvania Methane Regulations

It’s big news that the #2 gas-producing state has acted to reduce methane emissions from new natural gas equipment, and we look forward to supporting the state’s efforts to address existing equipment next.

Furthermore, the decisive actions by the state of Pennsylvania stand in stark contrast to the destructive policies of the federal government, which is rolling back sensible safeguards aimed at controlling methane waste and addressing climate change. Today’s news is yet another clear signal to the Trump Administration that they stand on the wrong side of history.
