National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants from
Off-Site Waste and Recovery Operations
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule; technical corrections and amendments.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Under the Clean Air Act (CAA), the EPA promulgated the
National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) from
Off-Site Waste and Recovery Operations (OSWRO) on July 1, 1996 with
subsequent amendments on July 20, 1999. The promulgated rule requires
new and existing major sources to control emissions of hazardous air
pollutants (HAP) to the level reflecting application of the maximum
achievable control technology. The technical corrections and minor
technical amendments in this action will not change the basic control
requirements of the rule or the level of health protection it provides.
Section 553 of the Administrative Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C.
553(b)(B), provides that, when an agency for good cause finds that
notice and public procedure are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary
to the public interest, the agency may issue a rule without providing
notice and an opportunity for public comment. We have determined that
there is good cause for making today's rule final without prior
proposal and opportunity for comment because the changes to the rule
are minor technical corrections, are noncontroversial in nature, and do
not substantively change the requirements of the OSWRO rule. Thus,
notice and public procedure are unnecessary. We find that this
constitutes good cause under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B).
Section 553(d)(3) allows an agency, upon finding good cause, to
make a rule effective immediately. Because today's changes do not
substantively change the requirements of the OSWRO rule, we find good
cause to make these amendments effectively immediately.
EFFECTIVE DATE: January 8, 2001.
ADDRESSES: Docket No. A-92-16 contains the supporting information for
the original OSWRO NESHAP and this action. The docket is located at the
U.S. EPA in room M-1500, Waterside Mall (ground floor), 401 M Street
SW, Washington, DC 20460, and may be inspected from 8:00 a.m. to 5:30
p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding legal holidays. A reasonable fee

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Regulated Entities. Entities potentially
regulated by this action include the following types of facilities if
the facility receives ``off-site material'' as defined in the rule, and
the facility is determined to be a major source of emissions of HAP as
defined in 40 CFR 63.2.
[[Page 1264]]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Category Examples of regulated entities
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Industry.......................... Businesses that receive waste, used
oil, or used solvent from off-site
locations and manage this material
in any of the following waste
management or recovery operations:
hazardous waste treatment, storage,
and disposal facilities (TSDF);
hazardous wastewater treatment
operations exempted from air
emission control requirements in 40
CFR parts 264 or 265; nonhazardous
wastewater treatment facilities
other than publicly owned treatment
works; used solvent recovery
operations; recovery operations
that recycle or reprocess hazardous
waste and are exempted from
regulation as a TSDF in 40 CFR
parts 264 or 265; and used oil re-
refineries.
Federal Government................ Federal agency facilities that
operate any of the waste management
or recovery operations that meet
the description of the entities
listed under the ``Industry''
category in this table.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
This table is not intended to be exhaustive, but rather provides a
guide for readers regarding entities likely to be regulated by this
action. This table lists the types of entities that the EPA is now
aware could potentially be regulated by this action.
A comprehensive list of Standard Industrial Classification (SIC)
codes cannot be compiled for businesses potentially regulated by this
action due to the structure of the rule. The rule may be applicable to
any business that receives waste, used oil, or used solvent from an
off-site location and then manages this material in one of the
operations or processes specified in the rule. Thus, for many
businesses subject to the rule, the regulated sources (i.e., off-site
waste management or recovery operations) are only a small part of the
overall manufacturing process or service conducted at the facility. In
these cases, the SIC code indicates the primary product produced or
service provided at the facility rather than the presence of an off-
site waste management or recovery operation at the site which is
operated to support the predominate function of the facility. For
example, SIC code classifications likely to have off-site waste
management or recovery operations at some (but not all) facilities
include, but are not limited to, petroleum refineries (SIC code 2911),
industrial organic chemical manufacturing (SIC code 286x), plastic
materials and synthetics manufacturing (SIC code 282x), and
miscellaneous chemical products manufacturing (SIC code 289x). The EPA
is also aware of off-site waste management or recovery operations
potentially subject to the rule being located at a few facilities
listed under SIC codes for refuse systems, waste management, business
services, miscellaneous services, and nonclassifiable. Thus, the SIC
code alone for a given facility does not determine whether the facility
is or is not potentially subject to this rule.
To determine whether your facility is regulated by this action, you
should carefully examine the applicability criteria in Sec. 63.680 of
the rule. If you have questions regarding the applicability of this
action to a particular entity, consult the person listed in the
preceding FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of this document.
World Wide Web (WWW). The text of today's document will also be
available on the WWW through the Technology Transfer Network (TTN).

I. Background
The EPA, under 40 CFR part 63, subpart DD, promulgated the OSWRO
NESHAP on July 1, 1996 (61 FR 34140). The OSWRO NESHAP establish
standards to control HAP emissions from certain waste management and
recovery operations that are not subject to Federal air standards under
other subparts in 40 CFR part 61 or 63. Subpart DD specifies the rule's
applicability, standards for affected sources, compliance requirements,
and reporting and recordkeeping provisions. In addition, subpart DD
cross-references other subparts in 40 CFR part 63 for the specific air
emissions control requirements to be used for affected tanks, surface
impoundments, containers, individual drain systems, and oil-water and
organic-water separators. The cross-referenced subparts are Subpart OO,
National Emission Standards for Tanks, Level 1; Subpart PP, National
Emission Standards for Containers; Subpart QQ, National Emission
Standards for Surface Impoundments; Subpart RR, National Emission
Standards for Individual Drain Systems; and Subpart VV, National
Emission Standards for Oil-Water Separators and Organic-Water
Separators. Amendments were made to the final rule on July 20, 1999.
II. Summary of Corrections
Today's changes are described in Table 2 to this preamble for the
convenience of the reader.
Table 2
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Citation Change
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sec. 63.681...................... Add definition ``Off-site material
service'' to amendatory paragraph.
Sec. 63.684(b)(1)(ii)(A)&(B)..... Add the letters ``A'' and ``B''
which were inadvertently left out
of July 20, 1999 amendments.
Sec. 63.685(i) and (i)(4)........ Add reference to (i)(4) in (i),
intro paragraph, and add (i)(4),
which was left out of July 1, 1996
final rule and the July 20, 1999
amendments.
Sec. 63.691(a)................... In the July 20, 1999 amendments,
Sec. 63.683(b)(3) was eliminated
and Sec. 63.683(d) was added to
take its place. The cite in Sec.
63.691(a) referencing Sec. 63.683
was not corrected in the July 1999
amendments to cite Sec. 63.683(d).
Today's action corrects this
oversight.
Sec. 63.693(d)(3)(ii), The change to the rule removes the
(e)(3)(ii), (f)(3)(iii), and 1 percent accuracy
(g)(3)(ii). requirement and replaces it with
reference to part 60, appendix B,
Performance Specification 8 or 9.
The EPA received comments that the
monitoring requirements in the rule
were too vague, in that they did
not define what type of monitoring
device was acceptable, nor did it
establish procedures for
determining the accuracy
requirement (1 percent)
cited in the rule. The addition of
part 60, appendix B, Performance
Specification 8 or 9 to the rule
will aid sources in choosing and
certifying appropriate monitors, as
well as establishing quality
assurance procedures for
maintaining, calibrating and
auditing the monitors.
[[Page 1265]]
Sec. 63.693 (d)(3), (d)(4)(i) and This change adds another option to
(iii). the carbon canister monitoring and
replacement requirements consistent
with those allowed under other
related NESHAP and Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act
(RCRA) air rules.
Sec. 63.694(b)(2)(iii)........... Correction to subscript of the
``QT'' term.
Sec. 63.694(1)(3)(ii)(A)......... Correction to misprinted equation in
July 1, 1996 final rule.
Table 2. Applicability of Sec. 63.10(b)(2)(xi) inadvertently
Paragraphs in Subpart A of Part left off table. The ``yes'' for
63--General Provisions to Subpart this section was added.
DD.
Sec. 63.924(c)(2)................ Change reference of Sec. 63.692 to
Sec. 63.693. Section 63.692 is
reserved.
Sec. 63.962(b)(3)(ii)............ Corrected typographical error ``in
accordance.''
Sec. 63.965(b)................... Corrected typographical error
``Standards.''
Sec. 63.966...................... Corrected typographical error
``Standards.''
Sec. 63.1045..................... Corrected typographical error
``Standards.''
------------------------------------------------------------------------
III. Administrative Requirements
Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), this
action is not a ``significant regulatory action'' and is therefore not
subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). Because
the EPA has made a ``good cause'' finding that this action is not
subject to notice and comment requirements under the Administrative
Procedure Act or any other statute, it is not subject to the regulatory
flexibility provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601
et seq.), or to sections 202 and 205 of the Unfunded Mandates Reform
Act of 1995 (UMRA) (Public Law 104-4). In addition, this action does
not significantly or uniquely affect small governments or impose a
significant intergovernmental mandate, as described in sections 203 and
204 of the UMRA. This action also does not significantly or uniquely
affect the communities of tribal governments, as specified by Executive
Order 13084 (63 FR 27655, May 10, 1998). This action does not have
substantial direct effects on the States, on the relationship between
the national government and the States, as specified in Executive Order
13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999). This action also is not subject
to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997) because it is
not economically significant.
Section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement
Act (NTTAA) of 1995 (Public Law No. 104-113), directs EPA to use
voluntary consensus standards in their regulatory and procurement
activities unless to do so would be inconsistent with applicable law or
otherwise impractical. Voluntary consensus standards are technical
standards (e.g., materials specifications, test methods, sampling
procedures, business practices) developed or adopted by one or more
voluntary consensus bodies. The NTTAA directs EPA to provide Congress,
through annual reports to OMB, with explanations when an agency does
not use available and applicable voluntary consensus standards.
These final rule amendments provide technical corrections and minor
technical amendments to the Off-Site Waste and Recovery Operations
NESHAP (Subpart DD). These amendments include two technical standards:
Performance Specification 8 (PS-8), Performance Specification for
Volatile Organic Compound Continuous Emission Monitoring Systems in
Stationary Sources; and Performance Specification 9 (PS-9), Performance
Specification for Gas Chromatograph Continuous Emission Monitoring
Systems in Stationary Sources which are cited in Sec. 63.693.
Consistent with the NTTAA, the EPA conducted a search for EPA's
Performance Specifications 8 and 9. No candidate consensus standards
were identified for either performance specification applicable for
these amendments. Therefore, EPA is not proposing/adopting any
voluntary consensus standards in this rulemaking. Nevertheless, under
Sec. 63.8, sources are allowed to apply to EPA for permission to use
alternative monitoring in lieu of PS-8 and PS-9.
This technical correction action does not involve special
consideration of environmental justice related issues as required by
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). In issuing these
rule amendments, the EPA has taken the necessary steps to eliminate
drafting errors and ambiguity, minimize potential litigation, and
provide a clear legal standard for affected conduct, as required by
section 3 of Executive Order 12988 (61 FR 4729, February 7, 1996). The
EPA has complied with Executive Order 12630 (53 FR 8859, March 15,
1988) by examining the takings implications of these rule amendments in
accordance with the ``Attorney General's Supplemental Guidelines for
the Evaluation of Risk and Avoidance of Unanticipated Takings'' issued
under the executive order. These rule amendments do not impose an
information collection burden under the provisions of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). The EPA's compliance
with these statutes and Executive Orders for the underlying rule is
discussed in the July 20, 1999 amendments to the final OSWRO rule.
The Congressional Review Act (5 U.S.C. 801 et seq.), as added by
the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996,
generally provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency
promulgating the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy
of the rule, to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller
General of the United States. Section 808 allows the issuing agency to
make a rule effective sooner than otherwise provided by the
Congressional Review Act if the agency makes a good cause finding that
notice and public procedure is impracticable, unnecessary or contrary
to the public interest. This determination must be supported by a brief
statement (5 U.S.C. 808(2)). As stated previously, the EPA has made
such a good cause finding, including the reasons therefor, and
established an effective date of January 8, 2001. The EPA will submit a
report containing this rule and other required information to the U.S.
Senate, the U.S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General
of the United States prior to publication of the rule in the Federal
Register. This action is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C.
804(2).

the off-site material streams entering the treatment process as
determined by the VOHAP concentration of the off-site material at the
point-of-delivery.
* * * * *
3. Section 63.685 is amended by revising paragraph (i) introductory
text and adding paragraph (i)(4) to read as follows:
Sec. 63.685 Standards: Tanks.
* * * * *
(i) The owner or operator who elects to control air emissions by
using an enclosure vented through a closed-vent system to an enclosed
combustion control device shall meet the requirements specified in
paragraphs (i)(1) through (4) of this section.
* * * * *
(4) The owner or operator shall inspect and monitor the closed-vent
system and control device as specified in Sec. 63.693.
4. Section 63.691 is amended by revising paragraph (a) to read as
follows:
Sec. 63.691 Standards: Equipment leaks.
(a) The provisions of this section apply to the control of air
emissions from equipment leaks for which Sec. 63.683(d) references the
use of this section for such air emissions control.
* * * * *
5. Section 63.693 is amended by:
a. Revising paragraphs (d)(3) introductory text and (d)(3)(ii);
b. Revising paragraph (d)(4)(i);
c. Adding paragraph (d)(4)(iii)
d. Revising paragraph (e)(3)(ii);
e. Revising paragraph (f)(3)(iii); and
f. Revising paragraph (g)(3)(ii).
The revisions and addition read as follows:
Sec. 63.693 Standards: Closed-vent systems and control devices.
* * * * *
(d) * * *
(3) The owner or operator must monitor the operation of the carbon
adsorption system in accordance with the requirements of Sec. 63.695(e)
using one of the continuous monitoring systems specified in paragraphs
(d)(3)(i) through (iii) of this section. Monitoring the operation of a
nonregenerable carbon adsorption system (e.g., a carbon canister) using
a continuous monitoring system is not required when the carbon canister
or the carbon in the control device is replaced on a regular basis
according to the requirements in paragraph (d)(4)(iii) of this section.
* * * * *
(ii) A continuous monitoring system to measure and record the daily
average concentration level of organic compounds in the exhaust gas
stream from the control device. The organic monitoring system must
comply either with Performance Specification 8 or 9 in 40 CFR part 60,
appendix B. The relative accuracy provision of Performance
Specification 8, Sections 2.4 and 3 need not be conducted.
* * * * *
(4) * * *
(i) Following the initial startup of the control device, all carbon
in the control device shall be replaced with fresh carbon on a regular,
predetermined time interval that is no longer than the carbon service
life established for the carbon adsorption system. The provisions of
this paragraph (d)(4)(i) do not apply to a nonregenerable carbon
adsorption system (e.g., a carbon canister) for which the carbon
canister or the carbon in the control device is replaced on a regular
basis according to the requirements in paragraph (d)(4)(iii) of this
section.
* * * * *
(iii) As an alternative to meeting the requirements in paragraphs
(d)(3) and (d)(4)(i) of this section, an owner or operator of a
nonregenerable carbon adsorption system may choose to replace on a
regular basis the carbon canister or the carbon in the control device
using the procedures in either paragraph (d)(4)(iii)(A) or
(d)(4)(iii)(B) of this section. For the purpose of complying with this
paragraph (d)(4)(iii), a nonregenerable carbon adsorption system means
a carbon adsorption system that does not regenerate the carbon bed
directly onsite in the control device, such as a carbon canister. The
spent carbon removed from the nonregenerable carbon adsorption system
must be managed according to the requirements in paragraph (d)(4)(ii)
of this section.
(A) Monitor the concentration level of the organic compounds in the
exhaust vent from the carbon adsorption system on a regular schedule,
and when carbon breakthrough is indicated, immediately replace either
the existing carbon canister with a new carbon canister or replace the
existing carbon in the control device with fresh carbon. Measurement of
the concentration level of the organic compounds in the exhaust vent
stream must be made with a detection instrument that is appropriate for
the composition of organic constituents in the vent stream and is
routinely calibrated to measure the organic concentration level
expected to occur at breakthrough. The monitoring frequency must be
daily or at an interval no greater than 20 percent of the time required
to consume the total carbon working capacity established as a
requirement of paragraph (d)(2)(ii)(B) of this section, whichever is
longer.
(B) Replace either the existing carbon canister with a new carbon
canister or replace the existing carbon in the control device with
fresh carbon at a regular, predetermined time interval that is less
than the design carbon replacement interval established as a
requirement of paragraph (d)(2)(ii)(B) of this section.
(e) * * *
(3) * * *
(ii) A continuous monitoring system to measure and record the daily
average concentration level of organic compounds in the exhaust gas
stream from the control device. The organic monitoring system must
comply either with Performance Specification 8 or 9 in 40 CFR part 60,
appendix B. The relative accuracy provision of Performance
Specification 8, Sections 2.4 and 3 need not be conducted.
* * * * *
(f) * * *
[[Page 1267]]
(3) * * *
(iii) For either type of vapor incinerator, a continuous monitoring
system to measure and record the daily average concentration of organic
compounds in the exhaust vent stream from the control device. The
organic monitoring system must comply either with Performance
Specification 8 or 9 in 40 CFR part 60, appendix B. The relative
accuracy provision of Performance Specification 8, Sections 2.4 and 3
need not be conducted.
* * * * *
(g) * * *
(3) * * *
(ii) A continuous monitoring system to measure and record the daily
average concentration of organic compounds in the exhaust vent stream
from the control device. The organic monitoring system must comply
either with Performance Specification 8 or 9 in 40 CFR part 60,
appendix B. The relative accuracy provision of Performance
Specification 8, Sections 2.4 and 3 need not be conducted.
* * * * *
6. Section 63.694 is amended by revising paragraphs (b)(2)(iii) and
(l)(3)(ii)(A) to read as follows:
Sec. 63.694 Testing methods and procedures.
* * * * *
(b) * * *
(2) * * *
(iii) Calculations. The average VOHAP concentration (C) on a mass-
weighted basis shall be calculated by using the results for all samples
analyzed in accordance with paragraph (b)(2)(ii) of this section and
the following equation. An owner or operator using a test method that
provides species-specific chemical concentrations may adjust the
measured concentrations to the corresponding concentration values which
would be obtained had the off-site material samples been analyzed using
Method 305. To adjust these data, the measured concentration for each
individual HAP chemical species contained in the off-site material is
multiplied by the appropriate species-specific adjustment factor
(fm305) listed in Table 1 of this subpart.
