President Trump has made removing burdensome regulations one of his goals while he is President. Many of the regulations Trump has targeted were from the Obama-era.

Another Obama-era regulation is now on the chopping block as the Trump administration prepares to remove a regulation on the coal industry.

According to The Daily Caller:

The Trump administration is reportedly preparing to give the coal industry a boost by rolling back another Obama-era environmental regulation.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on Thursday is expected to rescind a rule that requires new coal plants to be fitted with carbon capture technology, according to several officials who spoke with The New York Times. Under the Obama-era mandate, new coal plants were not allowed to emit more than 1,400 pounds of carbon dioxide per megawatt-hour. The Trump administration is due to raise this limit to 1,900 pounds.

“It’s fantastic that the Trump EPA is repealing the Obama EPA’s ban on new coal-fired power plants,” Junkscience.com publisher Steve Milloy said in May when The Daily Caller News Foundation exclusively reported the administration’s mumblings of the rule rescission.

Established in 2015, the carbon capture rule was widely derided by industry representatives who argued it made the construction of new coal-fired plants essentially impossible. The expensive and cumbersome technology to this day has not been implemented on a commercial scale.

Cheap natural gas has replaced much of the need for coal-fired power plants, but this change will make it easier to build plants in the future. At the very least it is Trump removing another Obama regulation.
