Title: NESHAP for Municipal Solid Waste Landfills 
Abstract: This project is to develop national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants (HAP) by establishing maximum achievable control technology (MACT) for municipal solid waste landfills. MACT standards are under development to reduce the release of HAP from all industries to protect the public health and environment. The scope of the rule has not been determined. This project is now scheduled to start in fiscal year 1998. The initial stage of this project is to gather preliminary information on landfills to establish a presumptive MACT. That work will be followed by development of a regulatory package to propose and promulgate a MACT standard.
