National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants:
Revision of Source Category List 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 of hazardous air pollutants (HAP) emissions. The
source category list, which is required under section 112(c) of the
Clean Air Act (CAA), constitutes a significant part of EPA's agenda for
regulating stationary sources of air toxics emissions. The list was
most recently published in the Federal Register on January 30, 2001.
This 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 this notice have previously been
published in actions associated with proposing and promulgating
emission standards for individual source categories, and public
comments have been requested in the context of those actions. Some of
the revisions in this notice have not been reflected in any previous
notices and are being made on the Administrator's own motion, without
public comment. Such revisions are deemed by EPA to be without need for
public comment based on the nature of the actions. This notice does not
include any revisions to the schedule for standards provided for by CAA
section 112(e).
EFFECTIVE DATE: February 12, 2002.
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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Docket. The docket for this action is A-90-
49. The docket is an organized file of all the information submitted to
or otherwise relied upon by the Agency in the development of this
revised list of source categories. The principal purpose of the docket
is to allow interested parties to identify and locate documents that
serve as a record of the process engaged in by the Agency to publish
today's revision to the source category list. The docket is available
for public inspection at EPA's Air and Radiation Docket and Information
Center, which is listed in the ADDRESSES section of this notice.
World Wide Web (WWW). In addition to being available in the docket,
an electronic copy of today's notice will also be available on the WWW
through the Technology Transfer Network (TTN). Following signature, a
copy of the notice will be posted on the TTN's policy and guidance page
for newly proposed or promulgated rules http://www.epa.gov/ttn/oarpg.
The TTN provides information and technology exchange in various areas
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?
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 initially listed source categories.
[[Page 6522]]
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. However, we published two separate notices where
we listed sources for specific pollutants under section 112(c)(6) on
April 10, 1998 (63 FR 17838), and additional area sources under section
112(k) on July 19, 1999 (64 FR 38706). Please refer to these specific
notices for those listings. Since we have already listed those sources
in previous Federal Register notices, we are not relisting them in this
notice at this time. 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
four additional notices which updated the list and schedule: February
12, 1998 (63 FR 7155); May 17, 1999 (64 FR 26743); November 18, 1999
(64 FR 63025); and January 30, 2001 (66 FR 8220). You should read the
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 changes that have occurred since we
last updated the list on January 30, 2001 (66 FR 8220). The changes and
the affected source categories, are:
Changes to Source Category Names
Friction Materials Manufacturing
Addition of Source Categories
Coal- and Oil-Fired Electric Utility Steam Generating
Units
Wet-Formed Fiberglass Mat Production
Deletion of Source Categories
Asphalt Concrete Manufacturing
Uranium Hexafluoride
Sewage Sludge Incineration
Subsumptions of Source Categories
Cellulose Ethers Production
Miscellaneous Viscose Processes
Changes to the Scope of a Source Category
Process Heaters
The source category list and promulgation schedule, updated to
include today's changes to the list 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,
please refer 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, please 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?
The following sections describe revisions to the source category
list since January 30, 2001.
A. Changes to Source Category Names
We are renaming the Friction Products Manufacturing source category
to Friction Materials Manufacturing so that the name better describes
the source category.
B. Addition of Source Categories
Section 112(n)(1)(A) of the CAA requires the Administrator to
determine whether regulation of HAP from electric utility steam
generating units is appropriate and necessary. This finding was to be
made after the consideration of the results of the study mandated by
the same section, reported to Congress in EPA's February 1998 ``Study
of Hazardous Air Pollutant Emissions from Electric Utility Steam
Generating Units--Final Report to Congress.'' The EPA gathered
additional information and announced on December 20, 2000 (65 FR 79825)
that regulation of HAP emissions from coal- and oil-fired electric
utility steam generating units was appropriate and necessary. As a
result of this determination, the source category for Coal- and Oil-
Fired Electric Utility Steam Generating Units was added to the list of
source categories under section 112(c) of the CAA in that December 20,
2000 notice. In today's notice, we are simply updating the source
category list to reflect that addition.
Today's notice also updates the source category list to reflect the
addition of a new source category called Wet-Formed Fiberglass Mat
Production. For further information, you should refer to the proposed
preamble for the NESHAP for Wet-Formed Fiberglass Mat Production (65 FR
34277), which serves as the official action for adding that source
category.
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 the Asphalt Concrete Manufacturing, Uranium
Hexafluoride Production, and Sewage Sludge Incineration source
categories 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. These source
categories are being deleted because available data indicate that there
are no major sources in any of the source categories.
1. Asphalt Concrete Manufacturing
In today's notice, we are deleting the source category Asphalt
Concrete Manufacturing because available data indicate that there are
no major sources. This source category was initially listed in July
1992 because at the time, we believed there were major sources in the
category. Emissions data, along with emission factors, were used to
estimate HAP emissions from eleven asphalt concrete manufacturing
plants employing various production processes and different fuels.
Emissions of total HAP at individual plants range from 1.5 tons per
year (tpy) to 6.4 tpy. In addition, emission factors were used to
estimate HAP emissions from a plant with a high annual production of
1.2 million tons of asphalt concrete. We estimate total HAP emissions
from that plant to be 6.2 tpy. Based on the above information, we have
concluded that no asphalt concrete manufacturing facility has the
potential to emit HAP approaching major source levels.
2. Uranium Hexafluoride Production
The Uranium Hexafluoride Production source category was initially
listed in July 1992. Information collected since the listing indicates
that there is only one facility producing uranium hexafluoride in the
United States. We visited the facility and reviewed emissions estimates
provided by the facility. We estimate total plantwide emissions of HAP,
including emissions from uranium hexafluoride production and fluorine
production, to be less than 5 tpy. Therefore, since there are no
sources in this category with the potential to emit HAP at a level
approaching the major source threshold, we are removing this source
category from the list.
[[Page 6523]]
3. Sewage Sludge Incineration
The Sewage Sludge Incineration source category was initially listed
in July 1992. Sewage sludge incinerators have been reevaluated for
emissions of HAP. After evaluation of all emissions information
available, including additional testing conducted since the initial
listing, we have concluded that the Sewage Sludge Incineration source
category does not have any sources with the potential to emit HAP at a
level approaching major source levels; therefore, we are removing the
Sewage Sludge Incineration source category from the list of source
categories under CAA section 112.
D. Subsumptions of Source Categories
Today's notice updates the source category list to reflect the
subsumption of seven categories related to cellulose production into
two source categories called Cellulose Ethers Production and
Miscellaneous Viscose Processes. We are combining the
Carboxymethylcellulose Production, Cellulose Ethers Production, and
Methylcellulose Production source categories into the Cellulose Ethers
Production source category. We are also combining four existing source
categories into a new source category called Miscellaneous Viscose
Processes. This newly defined source category subsumes the Rayon
Production, Cellulose Food Casing Manufacturing, Cellophane Production,
and Cellulosic Sponge Manufacturing source categories. For further
information, you should refer to the proposed preamble for the
Cellulose Products Manufacturing NESHAP (65 FR 52166), which serves as
the official action to combine the source categories and to name the
newly defined source categories.
E. Changes to the Scope of a Source Category
Today's action serves to redefine the scope of the Process Heaters
source category to only include indirect-fired process heaters.
Both direct-fired and indirect-fired process heaters were included
in the initial listing of the source category. Direct-fired process
heaters are those in which the products of combustion mix with process
materials and the combined emissions exit the same stack. By contrast,
indirect-fired process heaters are those where the process materials
are not mixed with products of combustion and, therefore, the emissions
arise solely from products of combustion. We included direct-fired
process heaters under other MACT standards for each relevant industry
source category since emissions from direct-fired heaters are source
and industry specific and, therefore, only indirect-fired process
heaters need to be included in the Process Heaters source category.
IV. Is This Action Subject to Judicial Review?
Section 112(e)(4) of the CAA 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. Section 112(e)(3) 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. 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. 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 Executive 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
terms of Executive Order 12866.
Dated: February 6, 2002.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
\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
\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.XO(c) of the
March 6, 1991 Federal Register notice (56 FR 9315).
