Section 25-7-1506 - Rules - analysis(1) Notwithstanding any provision of this part 15, the executive director may promulgate rules updating any emission standard, definition, or test method established in this part 15 in order to maintain or improve consistency with other comparable standards in other states so long as the updated version results in air quality that is equal to or better than air quality achieved using the prior standard.(2) The executive director may promulgate rules as necessary to ensure the proper implementation and enforcement of this part 15.(3) On or before January 1, 2030, the executive director shall conduct an analysis to determine whether statewide greenhouse gas emissions from water heaters and fan-type central furnaces are declining in comparison to emission levels in 2023 in a manner that comports with the statewide greenhouse gas reduction goals set forth in section 25-7-102 (2)(g). Unless the analysis determines that the emissions trajectory is consistent with achieving the statewide greenhouse gas reduction goals, the executive director shall propose to the commission rules to bring the emission levels in line with the reduction goals. The executive director shall ensure that such rules: (a) Take into account any emission standards that are in effect or under development in other jurisdictions or at the federal level for new water heaters and fan-type central furnaces;(b) Take into account input from major manufacturers of water heaters, fan-type central furnaces, and other relevant equipment;(c) Consider whether emissions standards for additional types of residential and commercial heating and water heating equipment are appropriate and necessary to meet the greenhouse gas emission reduction targets described in section 25-7-102 (2)(g);(d) Are achievable with available technology; and(e) Do not place an undue cost burden on consumers.Added by 2023 Ch. 285,§ 9, eff. 8/7/2023.2023 Ch. 285, was passed without a safety clause.
