Title: Petroleum Refineries--New Source Performance Standards (NSPS)--Subparts J and JA 
Abstract: On June 24, 2008, EPA promulgated amendments to the Standards of Performance for Petroleum Refineries and new standards of performance for petroleum refinery process units constructed, reconstructed or modified after May 14, 2007. EPA subsequently received three petitions for reconsideration of these final rules. On September 26, 2008, the EPA granted reconsideration and issued a stay for the issues raised in the petitions regarding process heaters and flares. On December 22, 2008, the EPA addressed those specific issues by proposing amendments to certain provisions for process heaters and flares and extending the stay of these provisions until further notice. EPA also proposed technical corrections to the rules for issues that were raised in the petitions for reconsideration. On September 12, 2012, EPA finalized those amendments and technical corrections and lifted the stay of all the provisions granted on September 26, 2008, and extended until further notice on December 22, 2008.
