EPA's original March 31st deadline for large emitters and
fuel suppliers to report greenhouse gas emissions has been
delayed indefinitely.
[EPA] did not specifically mention the date of the new deadline,
but said that the final tool for companies to upload their data
will be available this summer.
"To ensure that the requirements are practical and
understandable to the thousands of companies already registered to
report under the program, the agency is in the process of
finalizing a user friendly online electronic reporting
platform," the EPA said.
"Following conversations with industry and others, and in
the interest of providing high quality data to the public this
year, EPA is extending this year's reporting deadline
– originally March 31 – and plans to have the
final uploading tool available this summer, with the data scheduled
to be published later this year," the agency added.
