| 96-21280 | National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Source Categories: Organic Hazardous Air Pollutants From the Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry and Other Processes Subject to the Negotiated Regulation for Equipment Leaks; Proposed Rule Clarifications | Proposed Rule | On April 22, 1994 and June 6, 1994, the EPA issued the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Source Categories: Organic Hazardous Air Pollutants from the Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry and Other Processes Subject to the Negotiated Regulation for Equipment Leaks. This rule is commonly known as the Hazardous Organic NESHAP or the HON. In June 1994, petitions for review of the April 1994 rule were filed in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. The petitioners raised over 75 technical issues and concerns with drafting clarity of the rule. Today's action proposes correcting amendments to the rule to address the petitioners' issues. Today's action proposes new definitions that apply to wastewater and wastewater treatment and revised control and compliance provisions for wastewater. A new compliance date of April 22, 1999, is being proposed for process wastewater, heat exchange systems, in-process equipment subject to the provisions of Sec. 63.149, and maintenance wastewater. The proposed changes to these provisions are sufficiently far reaching and complex to render those provisions effectively a new rule. The EPA is also proposing a separate compliance date for wastewater streams affected by the omission of nitrobenzene from the list of compounds subject to the wastewater provisions. The proposed revisions to the other provisions to the rule are corrections and clarifications to ensure the rule is implemented as intended. Today's amendments would also provide some additional compliance options that would reduce the burden associated with the recordkeeping and reporting requirements of the rule. The proposed amendments to the rule will not change the basic control requirements of the rule or the level of health protection it provides. The rule requires new and existing major sources to control emissions of hazardous air pollutants to the level reflecting application of the maximum achievable control technology. | 1996-08-26 | 1996 | 8 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1996/08/26/96-21280/national-emission-standards-for-hazardous-air-pollutants-for-source-categories-organic-hazardous-air | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1996-08-26/pdf/96-21280.pdf | Environmental Protection Agency | 145 | On April 22, 1994 and June 6, 1994, the EPA issued the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Source Categories: Organic Hazardous Air Pollutants from the Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry and Other Processes... |
