House Resolution 7079 (H.R. 7079) – “Banning EPA’s Encroachment on Facilities Act”

EPA has issued a proposed rule on effluent limitations for meat and poultry processors that looks like it could be interpreted to apply EPA sewer requirements to all meat and poultry processing plants, even small custom processors. Many of the rural processors don’t have a municipal sewer option within miles. Currently, only a fraction of the nation’s meat and poultry processing plants are under these EPA sewer requirements. The proposed EPA rules are, in effect, another attack on the meat and poultry supply and local meat infrastructure. 

H.R. 7079 provides, “The Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency may not finalize, implement, enforce the proposed rule, entitled “Clean Water Act Effluent Limitations Guidelines and Standards for the Meat and Poultry Products Point Source Category” signed by the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency on December 13, 2023 or any substantially similar rule.”

HR 7079 currently has 7 cosponsors.
