AES Puerto Rico LP's (“AES-PR”) petition for rulemaking requests reconsideration of how the Coal Combustion Residuals (CCR) rule (40 CFR part 257, subpart D) regulates the storage of CCR at a facility (on-site) as a “CCR pile” before the CCR is delivered to a third party for beneficial use or disposal (off-site).  The petition also requests that EPA take immediate action to extend the CCR rule’s compliance deadlines and requests that EPA also ask the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit to hold the consolidated challenges to the CCR rule in abeyance for reasons explained in the petition.
