Exempts marginal wells from certain Clean Air Act standards and requirements.

The Protect Domestic Oil and Gas Small Business Act of 2026 amends the Clean Air Act to exempt marginal wells from certain standards of performance and other requirements. Marginal wells are defined as oil or natural gas well sites with specific production limits. The bill also mandates expedited consideration of state plan revisions that exclude these wells from applicable standards and terminates any pending enforcement actions related to these wells. The Environmental Protection Agency must revise regulations and guidance to implement these changes within 180 days of the act's enactment.
