The Coal Ash for American Infrastructure Act amends the Solid Waste Disposal Act to create a framework for the beneficial use of coal combustion residuals. It allows coal combustion residuals units to be designated as beneficial use staging units, provided they meet certain criteria. Owners or operators must submit an application to a state or the Environmental Protection Agency for designation. Once designated, these units must comply with beneficial use requirements, including removing coal combustion residuals for beneficial use within specified timeframes.
