| E6-22426 | National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Shipbuilding and Ship Repair (Surface Coating) Operations | Rule | EPA is taking direct final action on amendments to the national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants (NESHAP) for shipbuilding and ship repair (surface coating) operations (subpart II) promulgated on December 15, 1995 (60 FR 64330), under the authority of section 112(d) of the Clean Air Act (CAA). These direct final rule amendments close an unintended gap in the scope of activities subject to the NESHAP by amending the definition of "ship" to include all marine or fresh-water vessels that are either (1) 20 meters or more in length regardless of the purpose for which the vessel is constructed or used, or (2) less than 20 meters in length and designed and built specifically for military or commercial purposes. All shipbuilding and ship repair coating operations performed on "ships," as so defined, are subject to Subpart II if they take place at an "affected source," as defined in 40 CFR 63.782. The only exception is that this NESHAP shall not be construed to apply to coating activities that are subject to emission limitations or work practices under the NESHAP for the boat manufacturing at 40 CFR part 63 subpart VVVV. We have also added a definition of "commercial" to further clarify the types of nonmilitary vessels less than 20 meters that we consider to be ships. The amended definition of "ship" renders the term "pleasure craft" unnecessary and the amendments, therefore, eliminate the use of that term in subpart II. | 2006-12-29 | 2006 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2006/12/29/E6-22426/national-emission-standards-for-hazardous-air-pollutants-shipbuilding-and-ship-repair-surface | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2006-12-29/pdf/E6-22426.pdf | Environmental Protection Agency | 145 | EPA is taking direct final action on amendments to the national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants (NESHAP) for shipbuilding and ship repair (surface coating) operations (subpart II) promulgated on December 15, 1995 (60 FR 64330), under... |
