Title: Mercury; Incorporation of Revised ASTM Standards Into EPA Regulations That Provide Flexibility in the Use of Alternatives to Mercury-Containing Thermometers 
Abstract: EPA plans to issue a proposed rule to update EPA regulations with the most recent versions of three ASTM International standards to facilitate the use of alternatives to mercury-containing industrial thermometers as part of complying with certain EPA regulations. The proposal also requests public input on the need and means to address the remaining EPA regulations that incorporate, by reference, ASTM International standards that do not allow the use of alternatives to mercury-containing industrial thermometers.
