Pennsylvania HB2537 amends penalties for air pollution violations, including malodors.

Pennsylvania HB2537 amends the Air Pollution Control Act to enhance penalties for air pollution violations. It mandates that individuals cease operations if they receive a third notice for malodor violations and fail to resolve the issues within 30 days. Continuing operations after such a notice subjects the individual to penalties. The bill also increases fines for violations of air pollution control act provisions, rules, regulations, or orders, and conditions or terms of any plan approval or permit. The act will take effect 60 days after enactment.
