| 99-13540 | List of Regulated Substances and Thresholds for Accidental Release Prevention; Flammable Hydrocarbon Fuel Exemption | Proposed Rule | The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to modify the rule listing regulated substances and threshold quantities for the Risk Management Program (RMP) issued under section 112(r) of the Clean Air Act as amended. EPA is proposing that a process containing 67,000 pounds or less of a listed flammable hydrocarbon fuel, and no other listed substance above its threshold quantity, be exempt from threshold quantity determination. The exemption will not apply to processes that manufacture the fuel, contain more than a threshold quantity of another (non-fuel) regulated substance, or processes connected to, or collocated with, another covered process at the facility. EPA believes this proposed change will exempt from RMP coverage numerous small fuel users (e.g., farms, restaurants, hotels, etc.) that were not intended to be subject to the RMP requirements and better focus accident prevention activities on stationary source operations that present a greater risk to the community. | 1999-05-28 | 1999 | 5 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1999/05/28/99-13540/list-of-regulated-substances-and-thresholds-for-accidental-release-prevention-flammable-hydrocarbon | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1999-05-28/pdf/99-13540.pdf | Environmental Protection Agency | 145 | The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to modify the rule listing regulated substances and threshold quantities for the Risk Management Program (RMP) issued under section 112(r) of the Clean Air Act as amended.
