Title: ●Reconsideration of the Polyvinyl Chloride and Copolymers National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants 
Abstract: This action is in response to four petitions for reconsideration that were received for the PVC NESHAP that was finalized in April 2012. The petitions identify notice and comment issues as well as several technical consistency issues with the rule. The April 2012 final rule was issued in response to a 2008 settlement agreement with Sierra Club, MEAN, and LEAN to replace the vacated PVC MACT rule. This settlement did not include reconsideration of the existing 2007 PVC area source GACT rule. However, we decided to voluntarily review and revise the 2007 area source rule in conjunction with developing the major source MACT standard. Both industry and environmental petitioners have petitioned for reconsideration of the GACT analysis due to notice and comment.
