Title: Emissions Factors Program Improvements
Abstract: EPA intends to improve the air pollutant emissions factors program. Most EPA emissions factors reside in a database called AP-42. In order to acquire adequate data for the development or improvement of the emissions factors, we are seeking comment on requiring the submission (via electronic reporting) of certain performance testing information already collected by industry. Performance tests are conducted to measure the air pollutant emissions from an industrial process and used as an indicator of compliance with regulations. This last element of the process of improving the emissions factors program will require formal rulemaking and will encompass performance testing required by Federal rules codified in 40 CFR parts 60, 61, and 63.
