SIGNED: Miscellaneous Coatings Manufacturing Proposed Rule for the NESHAP Technology Review
Posted by [email protected] on Jun. 15, 2022
June 1, 2022, the EPA Administrator signed proposed amendments to address a gap in the recently finalized Miscellaneous Coating Manufacturing (MCM) National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP). The NESHAP was promulgated in 2003 and amended in 2006, and the required residual risk and technology review (RTR) was finalized in 2020. After promulgation of the final rule, EPA agreed to propose additional standards under a court-ordered deadline to address unregulated emissions from the MCM source category by February 16, 2023. The proposed amendments address standards for emission sources of inorganic hazardous air pollutants (HAP) which were identified as a gap in the current standards.
