Comments to EPA on Coal Combustion Residuals Beneficial Use

ARTBA submitted comments to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in support of proposed updates to the agency’s regulations governing the management of coal combustion residuals (CCR). The comments supported EPA’s recognition of CCR’s beneficial use in cement manufacturing and other transportation construction materials and asked the agency to preserve a clear distinction between CCR managed for beneficial reuse and CCR managed for disposal. ARTBA emphasized that regulatory clarity will help ensure the continued use of CCR in transportation infrastructure projects while advancing resource conservation and environmental stewardship.
