Abstract:
EPA is proposing amendments to the National Emission Standards for Mineral Wool Production. The amendments would add new emission limits for carbonyl sulfide (COS), hydrogen fluoride (HF), and hydrogen choride (HCl) for cupolas and revised emission limits for formaldehyde and new emissions limits for phenol and methanol for combined collection and curing operations; and revise the associated performance testing, recordkeeping, monitoring, and reporting requirements. Potential respondents subject to the NESHAP include an estimated 7 existing facilities that produce mineral wool. There are no additional annual responses attributable to this ICR. The burden estimates are associated with revising operation and maintenance plans, conducting performance tests to demonstrate compliance with the new emission limits, and checking and calibrating certain monitoring instruments associated with operating parameters for associated control devices. No burden estimates are provided for new sources because no new facilities are expected to be affected sources during the next 3 years.
