Small and mid-sized industrial facility owners benefit because the blocked EPA rule would have made it harder for them to reclassify from 'major source' to 'area source' status under the Clean Air Act. Without the rule, facilities that have reduced their emissions can qualify for less burdensome regulatory requirements, saving on compliance costs like pollution control equipment, monitoring, and reporting.
