Chapter 168, Statewide Greenhouse Gas Emissions Regulation
08/10/2021 06:13 PM EDT

The proposed rule defines the overall reductions in GHG emissions that the State must achieve by both 2030 and 2050. Department staff will use these reduction targets to document progress in emissions reductions in the biennial report to the Legislature on the State GHG inventory. 38 MRS 576-A(4) requires the Department to adopt rules to ensure compliance with the levels established by subsections 1 to 3 of 576-A. This proposed rule establishes the amount by which statewide greenhouse gas emissions must be reduced in order to achieve that compliance.
