Title: Effluent Guidelines and Standards for the Metal Products and Machinery Category, Phases 1 and 2
Abstract: EPA is developing effluent limitations guidelines for facilities that generate wastewater while processing metal parts; metal products; and machinery, including manufacture, assembly, rebuilding, repair, and maintenance. A proposed rule in 1995 covered seven industrial groups: aircraft, aerospace, hardware, ordnance, stationary industrial equipment, mobile industrial equipment, and electronic equipment. EPA has consolidated this rulemaking with a second phase, and coverage will include additional industrial groups such as: bus and truck, household equipment, instruments, motor vehicles, office machines, precious metals and jewelry, railroads, job shops, printed circuit boards, and ships and boats. The deadlines and timetable apply to the consolidated Phase 1 and 2 rulemaking.
