Title: NESHAP: National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Standards for Hazardous Waste Combustors (Response to Petitions for Reconsideration) 
Abstract: EPA promulgated national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants for hazardous waste combustors on October 12, 2005. Following promulgation of the final rule, the EPA Administrator received four petitions for reconsideration pursuant to section 307(d)(7)(B) of the Clean Air Act. Under this section of the Clean Air Act, the Administrator shall initiate reconsideration proceedings if the petitioner can show that it was impracticable to raise an objection to a rule within the public comment period or that the grounds for the objection arose after the public comment period. On September 6, 2006, EPA granted reconsideration of and requested comment on seven issues raised in the petitions. EPA also proposed several amendments and corrections to the October 2005 final rule that clarify several compliance and monitoring amendments. This final rule will be issued in conjunction with another rule related to the reconsideration proceedings (SAN 5047).
