National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants; Proposed Standards for Hazardous Air Pollants from Chemical Recovery Combustion Sources at K


Book Description

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was introduced on December 2, 1970 by President Richard Nixon. The agency is charged with protecting human health and the environment, by writing and enforcing regulations based on laws passed by Congress. The EPA's struggle to protect health and the environment is seen through each of its official publications. These publications outline new policies, detail problems with enforcing laws, document the need for new legislation, and describe new tactics to use to solve these issues. This collection of publications ranges from historic documents to reports released in the new millennium, and features works like: Bicycle for a Better Environment, Health Effects of Increasing Sulfur Oxides Emissions Draft, and Women and Environmental Health.







National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants - Chemical Recovery Combustion Sources at Kraft, Soda, Sulfite, and Stand-alone Semichemical, Us Environmental Protection Agency Regulation, 2018


Book Description

National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants - Chemical Recovery Combustion Sources at Kraft, Soda, Sulfite, and Stand-Alone Semichemical (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants - Chemical Recovery Combustion Sources at Kraft, Soda, Sulfite, and Stand-Alone Semichemical (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 This action finalizes the residual risk and technology review (RTR) conducted for the chemical recovery combustion sources at kraft, soda, sulfite, and stand-alone semichemical pulp mills regulated under the national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants (NESHAP). We are finalizing our proposed determination that risks from the source category are acceptable and that the standards provide an ample margin of safety to protect public health. We are also finalizing amendments to the NESHAP based on developments in practices, processes, and control technologies identified as part of the technology review. These final amendments include revisions to the opacity monitoring provisions and the addition of requirements to maintain proper operation of the electrostatic precipitator (ESP) automatic voltage control (AVC). Additional amendments are also being finalized including the requirement to conduct 5-year periodic emissions testing, and submit electronic reports; revisions to provisions addressing periods of startup, shutdown, and malfunction (SSM); and technical and editorial changes. These amendments are made under the authority of the Clean Air Act (CAA) and will improve the effectiveness of the rule. This book contains: - The complete text of the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants - Chemical Recovery Combustion Sources at Kraft, Soda, Sulfite, and Stand-Alone Semichemical (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition) - A table of contents with the page number of each section
