Title: Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources and Emissions Guidelines for Existing Sources: Hospital/Medical/Infectious Waste Incinerators; Amendments 
Abstract: On October 6, 2009, EPA promulgated its response to the remand of the new source performance standards and emissions guidelines for hospital/medical/infectious waste incinerators by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit and satisfied the Clean Air Act Section 129(a)(5) requirement to conduct a review of the standards every 5 years. This action proposes to amend the new source performance standards emissions limits for nitrogen oxides (NOX) and sulfur dioxide (SO2) promulgated for large hospital/medical/infectious waste incinerators in order to correct inadvertent drafting errors we made setting forth those limits, which did not correspond to our description of our standard-setting process.
