        <RULE_TITLE>National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP): Group IV Polymers and Resins, Pesticide Active Ingredient Production, and Polyether Polyols Production Risk and Technology Review</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In this action EPA will finalize risk and technology reviews for the following three National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP): Group IV Polymers and Resins, Pesticide Active Ingredient Production, and Polyether Polyols Production. The proposal for these NESHAP was published on January 9, 2012 (77 FR 1268), and under a consent decree deadline, the final rule must be promulgated in January 2014: Group IV Polymers and Resins, Pesticide Active Ingredient Production, and Polyether Polyols Production. Clean Air Act (CAA) sections 112(f)(2) and 112(d)(6) require EPA to conduct residual risk and technology reviews. Under the "technology review" provision of CAA section 112, EPA is required to review maximum achievable control technology (MACT) standards and to revise them "as necessary (taking into account developments in practices, processes and control technologies)" no less frequently than every 8 years. Under the "residual risk" provision of CAA section 112, EPA must evaluate the MACT standards within 8 years after promulgation and promulgate standards if required to provide an ample margin of safety to protect public health or prevent an adverse environmental effect. EPA will also remove startup, shutdown, and malfunction exemptions for these source categories, as required by recent court decisions.]]></ABSTRACT>
