FL S1228

Urges Congress to direct the EPA to revise proposed regulations limiting carbon dioxide emissions from existing fossil fuel-fired electric generating units under Clean Air Act Section 111(d).

Requests a 1-year extension for states to submit state plans to the EPA for compliance with the proposed regulations.

Seeks a 5-year extension for interim plan compliance schedules and a 5-year extension for reaching final carbon dioxide emission rate reduction goals.

Calls for decreased interim and final state emission rate goals for Florida's affected electric generating units.

Proposes prohibiting retirement of electric generating units before the end of their engineering lifetime unless construction costs are recovered, replacement capacity exists, and grid reliability is maintained.
