At a glance:

Environmental groups are set to square off against a new EPA proposal which regulates pariculate matter pollution - but not in rural areas.
 
Particularly of concern is the exemption of dust from mining which would include sources of silica dust, a known carcinogen.
 
In favor of the new rules are agricultural and mining groups.
 
A public comment period is underway until April 17, 2006.
