Title: Revision of Schedule for Standards Under Section 112 of the Clean Air Act
Abstract: Section 112 of the Clean Air Act requires the EPA to publish a list of major and area source categories which emit one or more of the hazardous air pollutants listed in section 112. An initial list of source categories was finalized in July 1992 and contained 174 categories. Section 112 further requires the Agency to prioritize the listed categories such that standards are promulgated for 40 source categories within 2 years of enactment, 25 percent of all initially listed categories within 4 years, 50 percent within 7 years, and 100 percent within 10 years. The schedule for the promulgation of emissions standards was published in December 1993. This action revises the list of source categories and the corresponding schedule for emission standards. This is in accordance with the statute, which requires the Agency to periodically amend the list in response to public comment or new information, and no less often than every eight years. The list and the schedule were last updated on November 18, 1999.
