EPA denies petition to lift emission limits for hazardous pollutants on stationary turbines.

The EPA denied a petition by energy companies, including the American Petroleum Institute, to remove limits on emissions of hazardous pollutants from stationary turbines.

This decision aims to protect vulnerable residents near turbine facilities.
