Primacy Certainty Act of 2025 clarifies timelines for EPA decisions on state primacy for Class VI wells.
The Primacy Certainty Act of 2025 amends the Safe Drinking Water Act to establish a clear timeline for the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to decide on state applications for primary enforcement responsibility over Class VI wells. If the EPA does not make a decision within 180 days, the application is considered approved. The bill also mandates that the EPA process applications in the order they are submitted and prohibits the EPA from conditioning approval on additional provisions not already included in the application.
