  • 2021-00374 — National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Cyanide Chemicals Manufacturing Residual Risk and Technology Review
    💰
    Type:Proposed Rule
    Citation:86 FR 3906
    Reading Time:about 108 minutes

    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing changes to the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for the Cyanide Chemicals Manufacturing source category. These changes stem from a review under the Clean Air Act to ensure the current standards are effective in protecting public health and addressing any emission risks. While the EPA found current emissions pose acceptable risks, they are proposing updated standards for process wastewater and emphasizing electronic reporting. The aim is to enhance monitoring, compliance, and data accuracy without expecting significant changes in emissions or economic impacts for the industry.

    Simple Explanation

    The EPA wants to make sure that factories making special chemicals that include cyanide aren't putting too much bad stuff in the air, and they think the current rules are okay. They're also planning to check some new things like the water used in the process and focus on keeping track of everything better using computers.

    💰
    Type:Notice
    Citation:86 FR 8634
    Reading Time:about 29 minutes

    The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has announced plans to submit Information Collection Requests (ICRs) for review and approval in line with the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA). They are requesting public feedback on aspects of these proposed information collections. These ICRs, which are extensions of currently approved ones, involve various industrial sectors, such as sulfuric acid manufacturing and polymeric coating of substrates, and cover topics like emissions standards and recordkeeping requirements. Public comments are invited by April 9, 2021.

    Simple Explanation

    The EPA wants to hear what people think before they send some important paperwork requests to the review office. They're checking if the rules to keep air clean are still good and want to make sure they aren't making too much work for people.

  • 2025-04990 — Review of New Source Performance Standards for Stationary Combustion Turbines and Stationary Gas Turbines; Reopening of Comment Period
    Type:Proposed Rule
    Citation:90 FR 13576
    Reading Time:about 6 minutes

    On December 13, 2024, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed changes to the rules about emissions from new and modified stationary combustion and gas turbines, focusing on reducing nitrogen oxides. Originally, the public had until March 13, 2025, to comment on this proposal. However, after receiving requests for more time to review, the EPA has reopened the public comment period, extending it an additional 21 days until April 15, 2025. People can submit their comments through various methods mentioned by the EPA, ensuring they include the correct docket ID in their submissions.

    Simple Explanation

    The EPA is changing some rules about how certain machines, like big engines, need to keep the air clean. They want people to give their thoughts on these changes by a new date in April, so everyone has enough time to read and say what they think.
