; and (ii) voluntary efforts by select members of the oil and gas industry, such as the Oil and Gas Climate Initiative, which has pledged to reduce the methane intensity of upstream gas and oil operations to less than 0.25 percent by calendar year 2025, should be adopted by the industry as a whole. (C) Conditional regulation of methane emissions from covered facilities Subject to subparagraph (D), the Administrator shall, pursuant to section 111(d) of the Clean Air Act ( 42 U.S.C. 7411(d) )— (i) not later than 1 year after the date of enactment of this Act, propose regulations for establishment, implementation, and enforcement of standards of performance for methane emissions from covered facilities; and (ii) not later than 1 year after the deadline described in clause (i), finalize such regulations. (D) Conditional effective date The regulations finalized pursuant to subparagraph (C) shall not take effect unless the Administrator determines that voluntary efforts are failing to yield the significant emissions reductions described in subparagraph (B)(i) by the end of calendar year 2025. If the Administrator makes such determination, the regulations finalized pursuant to subparagraph (C) shall take effect on January 1, 2026. (c) Senses of Congress (1) United States leadership It is the sense of Congress that United States leadership supports the guiding principles on Reducing methane emissions across the national gas value chain published in November 2017. (2) Financing conditions It is the sense of Congress that, in evaluating gas and oil-related projects for financial support, the United States Export-Import Bank and the Overseas Private Investment Corporation should condition financing for those projects on— (A) the deployment of the best technology, methods, and management practices for detecting and repairing leaks of methane throughout the oil and gas production, processing, transportation, and distribution system; (B) the minimization of venting and inefficient or unnecessary flaring
