I thank you for yielding to me. I want to join you in urging support for this amendment. Whatever the motivation is of your legislation--and I can understand your reason for being very skeptical. I share it. But what the industry should want is regulatory certainty. And this bill adds more confusion to what is already a long overdue effort to reduce toxic air pollution from boilers and incinerators. With no timeline for implementation of new emissions standards, the bill creates significant questions about how EPA would set limits for toxic air pollution. If they think it's regulatory certainty that they don't have to do anything for years, they'd better not count on it. And if they want regulatory certainty, they'd better come forward and work something out. In the meantime, your clarification provides the certainty, and I urge Members to support it.
