Title: New Source Performance Standards for Grain Elevators—Amendments 
Abstract: The New Source Performance Standard for Grain Elevators was promulgated in 1978 with the latest amendments made in 1984. Since that time there have been a number of changes in the technology used for storing and loading/unloading grain at elevators. Definitions in the current regulation do not fit some of the current technologies being used at elevators throughout the country. These definitional issues have come to the forefront most recently due to the increase in ethanol production that has lead to bumper crops of corn being grown, which has led to a need for increased grain storage. For these reasons a review/change of these definitions is necessary to ensure the appropriate standards are being applied consistently throughout the industry.
