EPA/AR RIN: 2060-AG63 Publication ID: Spring 2000 
Title: NESHAP/NSPS: Reciprocating Internal Combustion Engine 
Abstract: The stationary reciprocating internal combustion engine source category is listed as a major source of hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) under section 112 of the Clean Air Act (CAA). A major source is one which emits more than 10 tons/yr of one HAP or more than 25 tons/yr of a combination of 189 HAPs. The EPA will gather information on HAP emissions from internal combustion engines and determine the appropriate maximum achievable control technology (MACT) to reduce HAP emissions, if any. The EPA will also gather information for NOx, SO2, CO, and PM and decide whether standards are required to reduce these emissions. The EPA will use information that has already been developed, if possible, by gathering information by working with State/local agencies, vendors, manufacturers of internal combustion engines, owners and operators of internal combustion engines, and environmentalists. Some small businesses that use internal combustion engines may be directly impacted as well as a few small government entities who produce their own power. The number of small entities that would be affected is not known at this time.
