Title: Exemption for Air Emissions From Animal Waste at Farms From the Emergency Release Notification Requirements; Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act | |
Abstract:
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed to amend the release notification regulations under the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) to add the reporting exemption for air emissions from animal waste at farms provided in section 103(e) of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA). In addition, EPA proposed to add the definitions of farm” and animal waste” to the EPCRA regulations to delineate the scope of this reporting exemption. The intention of this rule, if finalized, is to promote consistency between the emergency release notification requirements of EPCRA and CERCLA in accordance with the statutory text, framework and legislative history of EPCRA and consistent with the Agency's prior regulatory actions. |
