National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants:
Revision of Source Category List and Schedule for Standards Under
Section 112 of the Clean Air Act
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice of revisions to the list of categories of major and area
sources.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This notice publishes revisions to the list of categories of
major and area sources for sources of hazardous air pollutants (HAP).
Required under section 112(c) and (e) of the Clean Air Act (CAA), the
source category list and schedule for standards constitute a
significant part of EPA's agenda for regulating stationary sources of
air toxics emissions. The list and schedule were most recently
published in the Federal Register on November 18, 1999 (64 FR 63025).
Today's notice meets the requirement in section 112(c)(1) to
publish periodically, but at least once every 8 years, a list of all
categories of sources reflecting revisions since the initial list was
published. Several of the revisions identified in today's notice have
previously been published in actions associated with proposing and
promulgating emission standards for individual source categories, and
public comment has been taken in the context of those actions. Some of
the revisions in today's notice have not been reflected in any previous
notices and are being made without public comment on the
Administrator's own motion. Such revisions are deemed by EPA to be
without need for public comment based on the nature of the actions.
EFFECTIVE DATE: January 30, 2001.
ADDRESSES: Docket No. A-90-49, containing supporting information used
in development of this notice, is available for public inspection and
copying between 8 a.m. and 5:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding
legal holidays. The docket is located in EPA's Air and Radiation Docket
and Information Center, Waterside Mall, Room M-1500, 401 M Street, SW.,
Washington, DC 20460, or by calling (202) 260-7548. A reasonable fee
may be charged for copying docket materials.

of air pollution control. If more information regarding the TTN is
needed, call the TTN HELP line at (919) 541-5384.
I. What is the History of the Source Category List and Schedule?
The CAA requires, under section 112, that EPA list all categories
of major sources emitting HAP and such categories of area sources
warranting regulation, and promulgate national emission standards for
hazardous air pollutants (NESHAP) to control, reduce, or otherwise
limit the emissions of HAP from such categories of major and area
sources. Pursuant to the various specific listing requirements in
section 112(c), on July 16, 1992 (57 FR 31576), we published a list of
174 categories of major and area sources--referred to as the initial
list--for which we would develop emission standards. On December 3,
1993 (58 FR 63941), pursuant to requirements in section 112(e), we
published a schedule for the promulgation of emission standards for
each of the 174 listed source categories.
When we publish notices that affect actions relating to individual
source categories, it is important to reflect the resultant changes on
the list and schedule. On June 4, 1996 (61 FR 28197), we published a
notice that referenced all previous list and schedule changes and
consolidated those actions, along with several new actions, into a
revised source category list and schedule. Subsequently, we published
three additional notices which updated the list and schedule: February
12, 1998 (63 FR 7155); May 17, 1999 (64 FR 26743); and November 18,
1999 (64 FR 63025). You should read these previous notices for
information relating to the development of the initial list and
schedule and subsequent changes.
II. Why is EPA Issuing This Notice?
This notice announces all list and schedule changes that have
occurred since we last updated the list on November 18, 1999 (64 FR
63025). The changes and the affected source categories, are:
Changes to Source Category Names
Leather Tanning and Finishing Operations
Solvent Extraction for Vegetable Oil Production
Petroleum Refineries--Catalytic Cracking, Catalytic
Reforming Units, and Sulfur Recovery Units
Municipal Solid Waste Landfills
Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW)
Addition of Categories of Area Sources
Hazardous Waste Incineration
Portland Cement Manufacturing
Secondary Aluminum Production
Deletion of Source Categories
Alumina Processing
Petroleum Dry Cleaners
Coke By-Product Plants.
The source category list and promulgation schedule, updated to
include today's actions as well as actions from previous notices, are
presented in Table 1. Table 1 also includes Federal Register citations
for notices related to the source categories (Table 1 omits proposal
notices once a rule or rule amendment has been promulgated). Source
categories for which revisions have been made in today's notice are
annotated in Table 1 for ease in discerning where revisions have been
made.
For general descriptions of source categories listed in Table 1,
the reader is referred to ``Documentation for Developing the Initial
Source Category List'' (EPA-450/3-91-030) and the Federal Register
notice for the first revision of the source category list and schedule
(61 FR 28197, June 4, 1996). For subsequent changes to descriptions of
source categories for which a rule has been promulgated, the reader is
advised to consult Table 1 for the citation of the Federal Register
notice that includes the amended definition and corresponding rule
applicability.
III. What Are the Revisions EPA Is Making to the Source Category
List and Schedule?
The following sections describe revisions to the source category
list since the November 18, 1999.
A. Changes to Source Category Names
We are renaming the following source categories so that the names
better describe the source category:
1. ``Leather Production'' is renamed ``Leather Tanning and
Finishing Operations.''
2. ``Vegetable Oil Production'' is renamed ``Solvent Extraction for
Vegetable Oil Production.''
3. ``Petroleum Refineries--Catalytic Cracking (Fluid and Other)
Units, Catalytic Reforming Units, and Sulfur Plant Units'' is renamed
to ``Petroleum Refineries--Catalytic Cracking, Catalytic Reforming
Units, and Sulfur Recovery Units.''
4. ``Municipal Landfills'' is renamed to ``Municipal Solid Waste
Landfills.''
5. ``Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW) Emissions'' is renamed
to ``Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW).''
B. Addition of Categories of Area Sources
The various authorities for listing and regulating area source
categories under section 112 are all discretionary and/or require some
sort of finding or determination by the Administrator. In the
promulgated regulatory actions for hazardous waste incineration,
portland cement production, and secondary aluminum production, we
stated that major, as well as, affected area sources would be
regulated. Today's notice merely reflects the addition of these three
source categories as area sources on Table 1.
C. Deletion of Source Categories
The Administrator may, where appropriate, delete categories of
sources on the Administrator's own motion or on petition. In today's
notice, we are deleting three source categories--alumina processing,
petroleum dry cleaners, and coke by-product plants--on the
Administrator's own motion. As discussed in the initial list notice (57
FR 31576), we included these categories on the list because at the
time, we believed there were major sources in each category, either
because they were major sources in their own right or because of
collocation with other sources of HAP. Two of these source categories
are being deleted because available data indicate that there are no
major sources in any of the source categories; the third source
category is being deleted because it is already subject to an existing
rule.
[[Page 8222]]
1. Alumina Processing
The Alumina Processing source category was initially listed in July
1992 based on combustion emission factors for calciners which indicated
that hexane and formaldehyde emissions were large enough for some
sources to be major. Information collected since the listing indicates
that there are four facilities producing alumina in the United States.
All of the facilities use the Bayer process to produce alumina, and
none of the facilities are major sources of HAP. Emissions data on the
facility that produces the most alumina indicate that it uses natural
gas as fuel in its calciners, as do two of the other facilities that
produce smaller amounts of alumina. The remaining facility uses fuel
oil in its calciners and produces about one third the amount of alumina
produced by the largest producer and operates only two calciners.
There is no speciation of organic compounds that are emitted from
the natural gas boilers or calciners for these facilities, but the data
indicate that about 7.5 tons per year of volatile organic compounds
(VOC) are emitted from these combustion sources at the largest
producing facility. Based on emission factors for combustion sources
from the Compilation of Air Pollutant Emission Factors Vol I:
Stationary Point and Area Sources (AP-42) (5th Edition), less than 10%
of the VOC emitted from natural gas boilers are HAP. Therefore, less
than one ton per year of HAP is estimated to be emitted from these
combustion sources at the largest facility. Based on the above
information, we conclude that the largest facility is not major, and
since all of the facilities use the same process, we also conclude that
the remaining three facilities are also not major.
2. Dry Cleaning (Petroleum Solvent)
The Dry Cleaning (Petroleum Solvent) source category was initially
listed in July 1992 based on engineering calculations which indicated
that at least one facility emitted HAP in excess of major source
levels. The calculations were based on total facility volatile organic
compounds (VOC) emissions information and a 1988 VOC speciation profile
for petroleum dry cleaning solvents (i.e., mineral spirit/petroleum
naphtha). The HAP identified in the solvent profile included:
chlorobenzene, cumene, ethylbenzene, polycyclic organic compounds
(POM), toluene, and xylene.
In 1998, we began gathering information to support the maximum
achievable control technology (MACT) standards for petroleum solvent
dry cleaners. These efforts were focused on obtaining current process
and emissions information because information used to support the
initial source category listing was more than 10 years old. One task
included development of a HAP speciation profile for petroleum solvents
currently available to dry cleaners. That information was obtained from
leading manufacturers of petroleum dry cleaning solvents. The current
HAP content of typical petroleum dry cleaning solvents (0.5 percent by
weight) is an order of magnitude or more lower than what was reported
in the 1988 speciation profile.
Emissions of HAP petroleum solvent dry cleaners were then
conservatively estimated with the revised solvent speciation profile,
from the Compilation of Air Pollutant Emission Factors Vol I:
Stationary Point and Area Sources (AP-42) (5th Edition) for
uncontrolled sources, and typical quantities of clothes cleaned
annually by large industrial (SIC 7218) launderers and smaller
commercial (SIC 7216) launderers. Our best estimate for a typical,
uncontrolled industrial launderer is approximately 0.8 tpy of total HAP
(or 0.6 tpy of a single HAP). Estimates for commercial launderers is
approximately 0.03 tpy of total HAP (or 0.2 tpy of a single HAP). Based
on the above information, it is our conclusion that no petroleum
solvent dry cleaning operations emit HAP approaching major source
levels.
3. Coke By-Product Plants
The Coke By-Product Plants source category was initially listed in
July 1992. The decision to list was based on the fact that coke oven
facilities including by-product recovery plants are major sources of
HAP. Coke by-product recovery plants are designed and operated for the
separation and recovery of coal tar derivatives (by-products) that
evolve from coal during the coking process of a coke oven battery. The
predominant HAP emitted from coke by-product recovery plants is
benzene. Other HAP emitted include naphthalene, phenol, toluene, and
xylene. Coke by-product recovery plants are subject to an existing
standard (40 CFR part 61, subpart L, National Emission Standard for
Benzene Emissions from Coke By-Product Recovery Plants) which was
promulgated on September 14, 1980 and amended on September 19, 1991.
That standard limits HAP emissions through equipment and work practice
standards. Owners/operators are required to enclose and seal all
openings on process vessels, tar storage tanks, and tar-intercepting
sumps and to duct gases from these sources to a gas collection system
for treatment. Since Coke By-Product Plants is a previously regulated
source category, section 112(c)(4) of the CAA gives us the discretion
to list or not list such source categories.
Since publishing the initial source category list, we have
conducted a study to examine the effectiveness of the existing NESHAP
for coke by-product recovery plants and concluded that further
regulation of this source category is unnecessary. Although the
existing standard was developed to control benzene, the standard
effectively controls all other emitted HAP. The benzene standard,
applicable to all coke by-product recovery plants in the listed source
category, would determine the floor for any section 112(d) standard,
and furthermore, we know of no realistic ``beyond the floor'' options
at this time.
In summary, further rulemaking would result in no accompanying
benefits. Any new standard that we would develop under section 112(d)
would be based on and be comparable to the existing standard both in
terms of application and level of stringency.
IV. Is This Action Subject to Judicial Review?
Section 112(e)(3) of the CAA states that the determination of
priorities for promulgation of standards for the listed source
categories is not a rulemaking and is not subject to judicial review,
except that failure to promulgate any standard pursuant to the schedule
established under section 112(e) shall be subject to review under
section 304 of the CAA. Section 112(e)(4) states that, notwithstanding
section 307 of the CAA, no action of the Administrator listing a source
category or subcategory under section 112(c) shall be a final Agency
action subject to judicial review, except that any such action may be
reviewed under section 307 when the Administrator issues emission
standards for such pollutant or category. Therefore, today's notice is
not subject to judicial review.
V. Is EPA Asking for Public Comment?
Prior to issuance of the initial source category list, we published
a draft initial list for public comment (56 FR 28548, June 21, 1991).
Although we were not required to take public comment on the initial
source category list, we believed it was useful to solicit input on a
number of issues related to the list. Indeed, in most instances, even
where there is no statutory requirement to take comment, we solicit
public comments on actions we are contemplating. Section 112(e)(3)
requires that we offer
[[Page 8223]]
opportunity for public comments on the initial source category
schedule, which we published as a draft in a September 24, 1992 notice
and subsequently published in final form on December 3, 1993. We have
decided, however, that it is unnecessary to solicit additional public
comment on the revisions reflected in today's notice. Where we believe
it is useful to solicit input on certain actions, we will offer
interested parties an opportunity to provide comments on proposed
individual emission standards.
VI. Administrative Requirements
Today's notice is not a rule; it is essentially an information
sharing activity which does not impose regulatory requirements or
costs. Therefore, the requirements of Executive Order 13045 (Protection
of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks),
Executive Order 13084 (Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal
Governments), Executive Order 13132 (Federalism), the Regulatory
Flexibility Act, the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act,
and the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act do not apply to today's notice.
Also, this notice does not contain any information collection
requirements and, therefore, is not subject to the Paperwork Reduction
Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.
Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), a
regulatory action determined to be ``significant'' is subject to the
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) review and the requirements of
the Executive Order. The Order defines ``significant'' regulatory
action as one that is likely to lead to a rule that may either (1) have
an annual effect on the economy of $100 million or more, or adversely
affect a sector of the economy, productivity, competition, jobs, the
environment, public health or safety, or State, local or tribal
governments or communities; (2) create a serious inconsistency or
otherwise interfere with an action taken or planned by another agency;
(3) materially alter the budgetary impact of entitlements, grants, user
fees, or loan programs or the rights and obligations of recipients
thereof; or (4) raise novel legal or policy issues arising out of legal
mandates, the President's priorities, or the principles set forth in
the Executive Order. The OMB has determined that this action is not
significant under the terms of Executive Order 12866.

\a\ Only sources within any category located at a major source shall be
subject to emission standards under CAA section 112 unless a finding
is made of a threat of adverse effects to human health or the
environment for the area sources in a category. All listed categories
are exclusive of any specific operations or processes included under
other categories that are listed separately.
\b\ This schedule does not establish the order in which the rules for
particular source categories will be proposed or promulgated. Rather,
it requires that emissions standards pursuant to CAA section 112(d)
for a given source category be promulgated by the specified date.
The markings in the ``Statutory Promulgation Date/Federal Register
Citation'' column of Table 1 denote the following:
(A): final amendment to a final rulemaking action
(a): proposed amendment to a final rulemaking action
(C): correction (or clarification) published subsequent to a proposed or
final rulemaking action
(F): final rulemaking action
(N): notice to announce general information, such as an Agency decision,
availability of new data, administrative updates, etc.
(P): proposed rulemaking action
(ap): advance notice of proposed rulemaking action
(R): reopening of a proposed action for public comment
(S): announcement of a stay, or partial stay, of the rule requirements
Moved: the source category is relocated to a more appropriate industry
group
Subsumed: the source category is included within the definition of
another listed category and therefore is no longer listed as a
separate source category
Renamed: the title of this source category is changed to a more
appropriate title
Deleted: the source category is removed from the source category list
[[Page 8229]]
\c\ The Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW) Emissions source category
had a statutory deadline for regulatory promulgation of November 15,
1995, as established by CAA section 112(e)(5). However, for purposes
of determining the 18-month period applicable to the POTW source
category under section 112(j)(2), the promulgation deadline was
November 15, 1997. This latter date is consistent with the section
112(e) schedule for the promulgation of emissions standards, as
published in the Federal Register on December 3, 1993 (58 FR 63941).
\d\ Equipment handling specific chemicals for these categories or
subsets of these categories is subject to a negotiated standard for
equipment leaks contained in the Hazardous Organic NESHAP (HON), which
was promulgated on April 22, 1994. The HON includes a negotiated
standard for equipment leaks from the SOCMI category and 20 non-SOCMI
categories (or subsets of these categories). The specific processes
affected within the categories are listed in Section XX.X0(c) of the
March 6, 1991 Federal Register notice (56 FR 9315).
