  • 3The public has until April 15, 2025 to submit comments about whether this is a good idea or not
  • 4This could affect energy bills for consumers, depending on whether removing these standards leads to less efficient products being sold
  • 5The specific gas products involved in this proposal are referenced as 'miscellaneous gas products' but the details would need to be reviewed in the full regulation text
