| Title: NESHAP: Organic Hazardous Air Pollutants From the Synthetic Organic Chemical Industry (SOCMI) & Other Processes Subject to the Negotiated Regulation for Equipment Leaks | |
| Abstract: The actions will amend the HON that was first promulgated on April 22, 1994, to clarify applicability of process vent requirements. The changes to the rule will clarify the EPA's intent regarding the meaning of the term process vent and address the way these provisions are to be implemented through the permit rule. The need for this action became apparent recently when it was learned that industry was interpreting the definition more narrowly than we intended, and thus, not identifying all process vents subject to the HON. These amendments will clarify the rule to ensure consistent interpretations of the term process vent while preserving the intended applicability of the requirements. These clarifications will not increase or lower or otherwise affect emissions or environmental protection. Additionally, the actions may clarify additional sections of the HON and correct any typographical errors noted. These actions may contain guidance as well as amended rule language. | |
