Bill overview
The Methane Rule Relief Act of 2019 aims to reduce regulatory burdens for small oil and natural gas wells. Specifically, it exempts wells producing less than 15 barrels of oil per day or 90,000 cubic feet of gas per day from certain requirements of the Environmental Protection Agency’s Methane Rule. This relief focuses on minimizing compliance costs for these smaller operations, which often produce marginal amounts of oil and gas. The bill seeks to provide flexibility while maintaining environmental protections.
