"EPA Pollution Rules Target Wood Heaters" [1]

"The Environmental Protection Agency is moving forward with a new rule that will limit the amount of pollution from household wood heaters.

The pollution rules target particle emissions from wood heaters, known as soot. Manufacturers will be required to reduce emissions by two-thirds of the current level.

The EPA says the pollution rules will make wood heaters more efficient while also protecting public health."
