Excludes marginal oil and gas wells from certain Clean Air Act standards.
The Protect Domestic Oil and Gas Small Business Act of 2026 amends the Clean Air Act to exclude marginal wells from certain standards of performance and other requirements. A marginal well is defined as an oil well site producing 15 barrels of oil per day or less, or a natural gas well site producing 90,000 cubic feet of natural gas per day or less. The Environmental Protection Agency must revise regulations within 180 days to implement this exclusion. Pending enforcement actions related to these wells are terminated.
