Abstract: This document provides background information for EPA's proposed rule to regulate integrated iron and steel manufacturing facilities that produce steel from iron ore, focusing on reducing air toxics emitted at a number of points at these facilities, including sinter plants that recover fine-sized materials, blast furnaces that produce iron, and basic oxygen process furnaces that produce steel. EPA issued the proposed rule January 19, 2001.
