Title: ●National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants From the Portland Cement Manufacturing Industry and Review of New Source Performance Standards for Portland Cement Plants 
Abstract: In this action, we are clarifying provisions of the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) and correcting a minor error in the New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for the Portland Cement Manufacturing Industry. These rules were published in the Federal Register on September 9, 2010 and take effect on November 8, 2010. The final rule NESHAP amendments were unclear concerning compliance dates for some sources, and did not make clear that emission limits currently in effect for existing sources remain in effect until the compliance date of the new emission standards. We also omitted text in one column in Table 1 of ยง63.1343(b). In the NSPS we inadvertently omitted a required rule reference in the incorporation by reference provision. This action clarifies the compliance dates, and emissions limits, and corrects the two minor errors. This action is now complete.
