    Source Category Listing for Section 112(d)(2) Rulemaking Pursuant 
    to Section 112(c)(6) Requirements
    
    AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
    
    ACTION: Notice.
    
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    
    SUMMARY: This action provides a list of source categories for 
    regulation under section 112(d) of the Clean Air Act (Act). A draft 
    listing of this action was posted in the Federal Register on June 20, 
    1997 (62 FR 33625) and public comment was taken on that draft. A 
    document summarizing comments and responses is available on the 
    Internet site (www.epa.gov/ttn/uatw/112c6fac.html) and in the project 
    docket. This action is being taken pursuant to section 112(c)(6) of the 
    Act, as amended in 1990, and a consent decree entered in Sierra Club v. 
    Browner, Civ. No. 95-1747 (D.D.C. 1995) (consolidated with Sierra Club 
    v. Browner, Civ. No. 96-436 (D.D.C. 1996)). Draft and final lists were 
    required under the amended consent decree to be completed and made 
    available by EPA by June 11, 1997 and April 3, 1998, respectively.
        This listing, under section 112(c)(6) is to identify source 
    categories for which additional standards under section 112(d)(2) or 
    (d)(4) can be developed, but by itself does not automatically result in 
    regulation or control of emissions from sources within these source 
    categories. Based on this list, EPA will perform further analyses on 
    emissions and control methods for the listed source categories. The 
    regulatory development analysis will determine any ultimate regulatory 
    requirements.
    
    DATES: Draft and final lists were required under the amended consent 
    decree to be completed and made available by EPA by June 11, 1997 and 
    April 3, 1998 respectively.

    I. Introduction
    
    A. Statutory Requirements
    
        Section 112(c)(6) of the Act prescribes the following program for 
    seven specific pollutants:
    
        With respect to alkylated lead compounds, polycyclic organic 
    matter, hexachlorobenzene, mercury, polychlorinated biphenyls, 
    2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzofurans and 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-
    dioxin, the Administrator shall, not later than 5 years after 
    November 15, 1990, list categories and subcategories of sources 
    assuring that sources accounting for not less than 90 per centum of 
    the aggregate emissions of each such pollutant are subject to 
    standards under subsection (d)(2) or (d)(4) of this section. Such 
    standards shall be promulgated not later than 10 years after 
    November 15, 1990. This paragraph shall not be construed to require 
    the Administrator to promulgate standards for such pollutants 
    emitted by electric utility steam generating units.
    
    B. Schedule
    
        The EPA has entered into a consent decree with the Sierra Club 
    Legal Defense Fund, Inc., in response to Sierra Club v. Browner, Civ. 
    No. 95-1747 (D.D.C. 1995) (consolidated with Sierra Club v. Browner, 
    Civ. No. 96-436 (D.D.C. 1996)). These actions concern performance of 
    certain duties under Act sections 112(c)(3), (c)(6), (k), and 202(l). 
    The consent decree, as amended, required, among other actions, that EPA 
    complete a draft of the list described in section 112(c)(6) no later 
    than June 11, 1997, and make a final list available no later than April 
    3, 1998.
    
    II. Background
    
    A. Overview of Regulatory Authority
    
        Section 112 of the Act, as amended in 1990, contains the EPA's 
    authorities for reducing emissions of hazardous air pollutants (HAP). 
    Section 112(b)(1) contains an initial list of 189 HAP (revised to 
    contain 188 HAP, 61 FR 30816, June 18, 1996). Section 112(c)(1) 
    requires the Administrator to publish a list of all categories and 
    subcategories of major sources and area sources of the air pollutants 
    listed in or pursuant to section 112(b). Section 112(d) requires the 
    Administrator to promulgate regulations establishing emission standards 
    for each category or subcategory of major sources and area sources of 
    HAP listed in section 112(c). Section 112(d)(2) specifies that emission 
    standards promulgated under the section shall require the maximum 
    degree of reductions in emissions of the HAP subject to section 112 
    that are deemed achievable, i.e., the maximum achievable control 
    technology (MACT). These regulations are often termed ``technology-
    based'' standards because they are based on the degree of emissions 
    control achievable through the application of technologies that the 
    best performing sources in the particular source category are using. 
    These technologies may include equipment or process design, chemical 
    substitution, collection and treatment of emissions, work practices, 
    and other measures.
        Section 112(d)(4) provides for consideration of health thresholds 
    with an ample margin of safety. Certain other sections of section 112 
    require EPA, in addition to technology-based standards, to evaluate 
    risk to public health and the environment in determining whether other 
    control measures are appropriate.
        Section 112(c)(6) names seven specific HAP that EPA must evaluate 
    to assure that certain sources of these HAP have been identified and 
    subjected to standards.
    
    B. General Procedure
    
        In order to determine the sources of the seven HAP named in section 
    112(c)(6), EPA developed a 1990 base-year emissions inventory of known 
    sources to the atmosphere of each HAP (refer to the inventory document 
    or the draft listing notice for a discussion of the base year 
    selection). This inventory of all sources (whether or not the emissions 
    are considered further in the section 112(c)(6) analysis) is summarized 
    in Table 1.
        Once these sources of the total emissions were identified, only the 
    stationary, anthropogenic source categories which fall within the scope 
    of section 112 (or the equivalent section 129) were evaluated to 
    determine action necessary under section 112(c)(6). (More discussion of 
    source categories excluded from the section 112(c)(6) analysis follows 
    in section IV.A.)
        Once the list of source categories was revised, the remaining pool 
    of source categories was evaluated to determine whether 90 percent of 
    those emissions are subject to standards. A summary of source 
    categories included in the section 112(c)(6) analysis and their percent 
    contributions are contained in Table 2. The majority of the source 
    categories were found to be already subject to either section 112(d)(2) 
    or section 129 standards (see section IV.B.3. regarding section 
    112(c)(6) credit for section 129 standards) or listed for such 
    regulation. The EPA reviewed the coverage of source categories to 
    determine whether additional source categories are needed to assure 
    that not less than 90 per centum of the aggregate emissions of each 
    pollutant are subject to standards.
    
    [[Page 17840]]
    
        The EPA published a draft listing of source categories accounting 
    for the section 112(c)(6) HAP emissions and the source categories 
    needed to meet the 90 percent requirement in the Federal Register on 
    June 20, 1997 (62 FR 33625). The notice and the base year inventory 
    document contain detailed information about emissions inventory 
    development methodology and its review process. In response to comments 
    on this draft and to new data that have been collected in conjunction 
    with concurrent EPA projects, EPA has made significant changes to the 
    inventory since the draft package. These changes are discussed in 
    section III.
        Additionally, EPA has prepared Table 3, which provides a cross-
    reference between the inventory prepared for section 112(c)(6) and the 
    list of categories under section 112(c)(1) for section 112(d) 
    standards. This table does not change any of the category definitions 
    or listing actions, but is provided solely for the convenience of the 
    public.
        While this assessment uses the best available emissions data 
    currently available for 1990, EPA cannot, at this time, assure that 
    this calculation of the 90 percent will remain constant for two 
    reasons: (1) EPA has not completed the process of developing section 
    112(d)(2) standards and, therefore, cannot guarantee the outcome of 
    those standards; and (2) the emissions inventory estimates, and the 
    estimates for emissions allocations to major and area sources, for any 
    given source category are likely to change as more source category 
    specific information is collected in the process of developing 
    standards. Congress required this listing activity to be undertaken 
    before completion of many regulatory analyses, and EPA believes this 
    notice represents the best estimate of emissions of section 112(c)(6) 
    pollutants and their regulatory coverage possible at this time.
    
    III. Changes Made From Draft Listing
    
        The EPA posted the draft section 112(c)(6) listing in the Federal 
    Register on June 20, 1997. The EPA posted the notice, the 1990 base 
    year inventory, and an explanatory fact sheet on the EPA's Internet web 
    site (www.epa.gov/ttn/uatw/112c6fac.html). The EPA also notified trade 
    associations, environmental groups, regulatory agencies, and other 
    parties who had expressed interest or supplied data to alert them of 
    the availability of the section 112(c)(6) package. The EPA accepted 
    comments on the draft listing and base year inventory over a 30-day 
    comment period. A comment summary document is posted on the web site 
    and is available in the docket. A discussion of substantive changes in 
    the listing action resulting from comments and from data collected 
    through related EPA projects follows.
    
    A. Response to Comments
    
        A total of 27 separate comment letters were received regarding the 
    June 20, 1997 Federal Register package. Several of the comments 
    pertained to the accompanying 1990 base year emissions inventory 
    supporting the section 112(c)(6) listing process. Within the 27 
    individual comment letters, approximately 50 separate comment issues 
    were identified. These comments pertained to both technical and policy 
    issues. The EPA has prepared a document, ``Summary of Public Comments 
    on the section 112(c)(6) Draft Listing Notice,'' that summarizes all 
    technical and policy comments received on the July 20, 1997 section 
    112(c)(6) Federal Register package. Similarly focused comments have 
    been aggregated and summarized in the document, along with the EPA 
    responses to the comments. The responses indicate how a technical or 
    policy issue is being addressed in the final Federal Register listing 
    notice for section 112(c)(6) or in the final supporting emissions 
    inventory. The comment summary/response document can be found in the 
    docket for the section 112(c)(6) project and on the EPA air toxics web 
    page (http://www.epa.gov/ttn/uatw/112c6fac.html).
    1. Comments on Emissions Inventories
        The majority of the technical comments regarded items relating to 
    some aspect of an emissions inventory estimate for a source category. 
    Most of these comments questioned the use of a particular emission rate 
    or factor or the use of an activity rate for a source category. The EPA 
    evaluated the technical data submitted and revised several emissions 
    estimates based on these comments. Any changes made in emissions 
    estimates based on these comments are reflected in the base-year 
    inventory document, Tables 1 and 2, and Figure 1 at the end of this 
    notice.
    2. Comments on EPA Policy
        The policy-oriented comments predominantly addressed what 
    regulatory programs could be counted as fulfilling the section 
    112(c)(6) ``subject to standards'' requirement, what portion of total 
    source category emissions can be credited as being ``subject to 
    standards'' for the section 112(c)(6) 90 percent requirement, what 
    source categories should be included in the 90 percent ``subject to 
    standards'' analysis, and what are appropriate definitions for the 
    polycyclic organic matter (POM) and dioxin/furan pollutants. Comments 
    also stated that EPA should do more to communicate the emissions 
    reductions that industries have done for section 112(c)(6) pollutants 
    since 1990 and that current emissions are significantly below 1990 
    levels; and that the aviation gasoline distribution category should not 
    be included in the listing since there is currently no viable 
    substitute for leaded aviation fuels and recent discussions between the 
    industry and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) indicated no 
    regulatory programs would be pursued for leaded aviation fuels. The 
    most substantive of these comments and EPA responses are summarized 
    below:
        Comment: Several commenters were concerned that EPA consider 
    aviation safety and performance standards when considering ``Gasoline 
    Distribution (Aviation)'' as a source category under section 112(c)(6).
        Response: The EPA will consider such safety standards. Section 
    112(d)(2) standards require using the technology and practices of the 
    best performers within an industry to set the standard for the rest of 
    the industry.
        Comment: One commenter stated that credits for stage II gasoline 
    distribution regulations under sections 182(b)(3) and 202(a)(6) are 
    only appropriate if they are protective of human health.
        Response: Section 112(c)(6) does not require EPA to determine an 
    emissions level ``protective of human health.'' In any case, EPA is not 
    including stage II gasoline distribution emissions in the section 
    112(c)(6) analysis for the reasons described in IV.A.5. below.
        Comment: One commenter stated that in its section 112(c)(6) 
    proposal, EPA improperly and illegally counts emissions as ``subject to 
    standards'' that are not yet subject to standards, that are subject to 
    standards other than MACT, or that are only partially subject to 
    standards. Only emissions that are subject to standards under section 
    112(d)(2) and 112 (d)(4) can be counted toward the 90 percent goal 
    contained in section 112(c)(6).
        Response: The EPA made changes in the final listing action in 
    response to this comment. First, HAP emissions from electric utility 
    steam generating units were removed from the analysis. Section 
    112(c)(6) provides that, ``This paragraph shall not be construed to 
    require the Administrator to promulgate standards for such pollutants 
    emitted by electric utility steam generating units.'' Furthermore, 
    section 112(n)(1)(A) requires EPA to perform a study of the public 
    health hazards posed by HAP
    
    [[Page 17841]]
    
    emissions from electric utility steam generating units and to regulate 
    those sources if ``appropriate and necessary after considering the 
    results of the study.'' The EPA believes that those provisions give the 
    Agency discretion to exclude utility emissions from listing and 
    regulation under section 112(c)(6). Congress enacted section 
    112(n)(1)(A) to establish the mechanism for determining whether 
    regulation of utility HAP emissions under section 112 was ``appropriate 
    and necessary'' and section 112(c)(6) specifically acknowledges that 
    function. The EPA believes that the language used in section 112(c)(6) 
    reflects Congress' determination that the mechanism established by 
    section 112(c)(6) is not appropriate for the regulation of utility HAP 
    emissions. Therefore, EPA has removed utility HAP emissions from this 
    analysis.
        Second, EPA has added information on whether each Industrial 
    Combustion Coordinated Rulemaking (ICCR) category will be subject to 
    section 112 or section 129 standards. (EPA has found section 112(d)(2) 
    and 129 standards to be substantively the same, as discussed in the 
    draft listing Federal Register notice.)
        Comment: One commenter stated that in determining source categories 
    subject to standards and counting emissions toward the section 
    112(c)(6) 90 percent goal, EPA has assumed that 100 percent of all 
    emissions for each MACT category are major source emissions. Therefore, 
    all emissions from a category for which there is a MACT are covered, 
    even if there are actually area sources that may not be subject to the 
    MACT.
        Response: The EPA has made a significant effort to characterize 
    emissions from each of the section 112(c)(6) emissions source 
    categories. These area and major source emissions allocations are 
    detailed in the draft and final emissions inventory documents which 
    have been made available with the draft and final listing notices. 
    Information on these area/major allocations comes primarily from work 
    conducted in association with MACT standard development or derived from 
    definitions of facilities. The EPA finds the MACT data to be of 
    generally higher quality than the facility definition data, which are 
    expected to improve as MACT standards are developed for these 
    categories.
        For the section 112(c)(6) analysis, in cases where a regulation for 
    a given source category has been promulgated, the percent of emissions 
    subject to the standard has been credited. For example, in the source 
    category gasoline distribution stage I, only 10 percent of the 
    emissions are from major sources subject to the standard and have been 
    counted toward the 90 percent goal. For source categories with 
    regulations that have not yet been promulgated, EPA will subject each 
    significant area source category to standards as directed by section 
    112(c)(6). When the regulations for each of those categories are 
    developed, EPA will analyze the data specific to those sources and 
    determine, under section 112(d), in what manner requirements will be 
    established. Some area categories may be negligible contributors to the 
    90 percent goal, and as such pose unwarranted burdens for subjecting to 
    standards. These trivial source categories will be removed from the 
    listing as they are evaluated since they will not contribute 
    significantly to the 90 percent goal.
        Comment: One commenter stated that EPA's treatment of emissions in 
    the proposed notice implies that the Agency believes it has identified 
    all source categories of section 112(c)(6) pollutant emissions and, 
    therefore, has accounted for 100 percent of emissions. The EPA should 
    document the basis for this assumption. If this cannot be documented, 
    the EPA should not assume that 90 percent of the emissions reported in 
    the proposal notice equal 90 percent of the total amount of section 
    112(c)(6) pollutant emissions.
        Response: The EPA has documented all sources for which emissions 
    data could be found and has indicated all source categories for which 
    emissions are suspected but no data to estimate emissions could be 
    found. The methodology for developing the emissions inventory estimates 
    is described in detail within the base year inventory document. Any 
    supported additional data that have been submitted by reviewers have 
    also been incorporated. The EPA believes it has sufficiently supported 
    its emissions estimates and has been as inclusive as possible of all 
    relevant data. The EPA further notes that the commenter has supplied no 
    information which would contradict or refute EPA's belief that all 
    source categories have been identified.
        Comment: One commenter stated that the only MACT standards that are 
    countable toward the section 112(c)(6) 90 percent requirement are those 
    standards that specifically establish requirements for section 
    112(c)(6) HAP (i.e., EPA cannot claim credit for a MACT for benzene as 
    subjecting the source to standards for dioxin), and that a section 
    112(d)(2) standard for which EPA claims credit for section 112(c)(6) 
    purposes must specifically regulate the emissions of the section 
    112(c)(6) pollutant.
        Similarly, another comment asserted that Congress intended for EPA 
    to reduce section 112(c)(6) HAP emissions by even more than they would 
    be reduced by any other section 112(d)(2) standard means, and that this 
    is why they imposed especially stringent emissions targets. The 
    commenter asserted that this interpretation is supported by the 
    legislative history of the Act.
        Another commenter stated it is not appropriate for EPA to have 
    claimed section 112(c)(6) credit for section 112(d)(2) applicability 
    and MACT emission reductions when the subject standard does not reduce 
    nor require any reductions for the section 112(c)(6) HAP. If EPA 
    evaluates this situation for a category and determines that no real 
    reductions are possible under a given MACT, the commenter stated that 
    they should report this finding to Congress. The commenter further 
    argued that claiming these credits for standards that do nothing in 
    terms of real emission reductions is not appropriate.
        Response: The EPA responds that section 112(c)(6) and 112(d) does 
    not require a specific quantitative reduction in emissions for any 
    particular HAP. Section 112(c)(6) calls for EPA to assure that certain 
    sources ``are subject to standards under subsection 112 (d)(2) or 
    (d)(4).'' The relevant sources are selected on the basis of whether 
    they emit the seven listed HAP. Section 112(c)(6) does not, however, 
    require that EPA achieve a specific amount of reductions of those seven 
    listed HAP. Today's action satisfies section 112(c)(6) by assuring that 
    source categories accounting for 90 percent of the emissions are 
    subject to standards under section 112 (d)(2) or (d)(4).
        Section 112 (d)(2) and (d)(4), in turn, define the mechanism for 
    setting standards. That mechanism establishes a minimum level of 
    performance. Like section 112(c)(6), it does not mandate any particular 
    percentage reduction in emissions of any particular HAP. However, 
    standards under section 112(d)(2) will be reevaluated for ``residual 
    risk'' under section 112(f). Under this provision, EPA can impose 
    additional standards, if necessary, ``to provide an ample margin of 
    safety to protect public health * * * or to prevent, taking into 
    consideration costs, energy, safety, and other relevant factors, an 
    adverse environmental effect.''
        Comment: Some commenters emphasized the point that in order for 
    area sources within the source categories listed in the section 
    112(c)(6) inventory to be regulated or for the area sources within the 
    applicable MACT to
    
    [[Page 17842]]
    
    be regulated, EPA must first make a determination that the sources pose 
    an adverse threat to human health or the environment pursuant to 
    section 112(c)(3) requirements. The EPA cannot impose MACT or any other 
    control requirements on area sources without making such a 
    determination first.
        Similarly, a commenter did not believe that section 112(c)(6) 
    mandates the control of area sources within a listed source category. 
    The commenter went on to say that the proposal notice was unclear on 
    whether area sources were presumed to be affected by the credited MACT, 
    but that whether they were or were not, area sources within the 
    Portland cement industry are not presumed to be regulated by the 
    industry MACT standards as a result of their inclusion in the section 
    112(c)(6) source list.
        Response: The EPA responds that section 112(c)(6) requires that 
    sources accounting for at least 90 percent of emissions of the 
    specified pollutants be subject to section 112(d)(2) standards or 
    section 112(d)(4). Unlike section 112(c)(3), this requirement does not 
    call for, nor does EPA believe it permits, a finding of health or 
    environmental threat from area sources to determine if such sources 
    need to be included to meet the 90 percent requirement. However, EPA 
    will determine whether specific regulation of the area source component 
    of a source category is appropriate, or necessary to meet the 90 
    percent goal, based on more source category-specific data collected as 
    part of the regulatory process.
        Comment: Another commenter challenged that EPA should not, in its 
    listing for section 112(c)(6), split the Portland cement category into 
    two categories, one for sources combusting hazardous waste fuel and one 
    for sources not combusting hazardous waste fuel.
        Response: Section 112(c) generally authorizes EPA to establish 
    source categories or subcategories for regulation as appropriate. The 
    EPA chose to split hazardous and non-hazardous waste-burning source 
    categories in order to reflect the distinctions made in MACT standards 
    currently under development within EPA's Office of Air Quality Planning 
    and Standards (OAQPS) and the Office of Solid Waste (OSW). The OAQPS 
    rule, which is not yet proposed, applies to cement kilns that do not 
    burn hazardous waste and to other HAP-emitting sources at a cement 
    plant, regardless of whether or not the cement kiln burns hazardous 
    waste. Cement kilns that burn hazardous waste will be covered by the 
    hazardous waste combustor rule which was proposed April 19, 1996 (61 FR 
    17358). Approximately 40 out of the 210 cement kilns in the U.S. burn 
    hazardous waste as a fuel. The sources burning hazardous and 
    nonhazardous fuel are being regulated under separate actions due to 
    their different emissions characteristics, different air pollution 
    controls, and separate classification by virtue of section 3004 (q) of 
    the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act.
        Comment: Several commenters responded to EPA's request for input on 
    the most appropriate definition of POM for use in this action. While 
    many comments provided information that will improve the emissions 
    estimates for the various source categories emitting these compounds, 
    EPA did not receive information which would favor the selection of one 
    surrogate approach over another as a basis to make listing 
    determinations for all categories associated with emissions of section 
    112(c)(6) HAP.
        Response: POM is defined in section 112(b) to ``[i]nclude[  ] 
    organic compounds with more than one benzene ring, and which have a 
    boiling point greater than or equal to 100 deg.C.'' The complex mixture 
    of POM consists of literally thousands of organic compounds, and no 
    standardized method exists at this time to measure these emissions. 
    There are, however, some valid surrogates for POM that provide 
    sufficient emissions inventory data for this analysis: (1) Extractable 
    organic matter (EOM), which is composed of the solvent-extractable 
    fraction of particulate matter, (2) the sum of the seven polynuclear 
    aromatic hydrocarbon compounds that are probable carcinogens (7-PAH), 
    and (3) the sum of the sixteen PAHs measured in EPA test method 610 
    (16-PAH). (For a more complete discussion of POM surrogates, refer to 
    the section 112(c)(6) emissions inventory document.) The EPA and others 
    are engaged in further efforts to better characterize the constituents 
    of POM that are most significant in evaluating health and environmental 
    effects.
        Rather than circumventing that effort by selecting one surrogate, 
    EPA collected and used data for all three approaches in the section 
    112(c)(6) assessment. As a result, the Agency did not discard any of 
    the possible surrogates for POM; the section 112(c)(6) listing reflects 
    an analysis that satisfies the 90 percent requirement using each one of 
    the three approaches.
        Comment: One commenter argued that use of toxic equivalency (TEQ) 
    is inappropriate as a surrogate for 2,3,7,8-TCDD. While 2,3,7,8-TCDD is 
    a single compound, TEQs sum emissions of various dioxins and furans 
    based on toxic equivalency (see inventory document for more discussion 
    of this issue).
        Response: As explained in the draft listing Federal Register 
    notice, EPA chose to use the TEQ surrogate for evaluating 2,3,7,8-TCDD 
    because data on 2,3,7,8-TCDD emissions were not available for analysis. 
    Both EPA's MACT program and the ongoing Office of Research and 
    Development's Dioxin Reassessment Study predominantly report emission 
    estimates on a 2,3,7,8-TCDD TEQ basis. Therefore, to maximize the 
    number of source categories for which national estimates could be 
    determined on a common basis and best carry out the objectives of 
    section 112(c)(6), EPA chose to use the TEQ method for inventorying 
    2,3,7,8-TCDD and 2,3,7,8-TCDF as specified under section 112(c)(6).
    
    B. Other Significant Changes
    
        In addition to data supplied via the comments on the draft listing 
    package, EPA also incorporated significant changes to the section 
    112(c)(6) base year emissions inventory based on information gathered 
    through another EPA program. The urban area source program (section 
    112(c)(3) and 112(k)) requires an inventory information collection 
    effort which includes some of the section 112(c)(6) pollutants. This 
    emissions inventory effort has been under way concurrently with the 
    development of the section 112(c)(6) analysis, with public comment on 
    that inventory ending in November 1997. The data collected from that 
    program have been incorporated into the section 112(c)(6) inventory and 
    are reflected in the base year inventory document and the tables and 
    figures included in this notice.
    
    IV. Listing Determination Process
    
        As described before, early in the analysis, source categories that 
    are not considered appropriate for section 112 regulation (i.e., 
    nonstationary, nonanthropogenic sources) were identified and excluded 
    from further evaluation for regulation under section 112(c)(6). From 
    this revised inventory list, source categories currently considered to 
    be subject to section 112(d)(2) and (d)(4) standards were identified, 
    along with source categories that are subject to section 129 standards 
    which substantively meet equivalent requirements.
        The emission contributions from these source categories were 
    tallied for each pollutant to determine whether the sources of 90 
    percent of emissions are
    
    [[Page 17843]]
    
    already subject to standards or listed for such standards, as required 
    by section 112(c)(6). Those pollutants that do not have 90 percent 
    coverage require listing of additional source categories under section 
    112(c)(6) to attain the 90 percent level.
    
    A. Sources Excluded From Section 112(c)(6) Analysis
    
        Certain sources of section 112(c)(6) pollutants, although included 
    in the 1990 base year emissions inventory documentation, are not 
    included in the analysis of source categories subject to section 
    112(c)(6). For example, section 112 applies to stationary sources, 
    therefore mobile source emissions were excluded.
    1. Exclusions Identified in the Draft Listing Notice
        In addition to mobile source emissions, emissions from wild and 
    prescribed fires, residential fuel combustion, and pesticide 
    application were also excluded. The rationale for these exclusions was 
    discussed in the draft listing notice. In this notice, EPA has also 
    excluded cigarette smoke, utility boilers emissions, consumer products 
    emissions, and refueling emissions at gasoline dispensing facilities. A 
    discussion of each of these excluded source categories follows.
    2. Cigarette Smoke
        Although the section 112(c)(6) emissions inventory includes 
    estimates of emissions from cigarette smoke, EPA does not deem this to 
    be a source category intended for regulation as a stationary source 
    under section 112. Section 112(a)(3) defines ``stationary source'' by 
    referring to section 111(a), which provides that a stationary source is 
    ``any building, structure, facility, or installation which emits or may 
    emit any air pollutant.'' Cigarette smoke does not fall within that 
    definition because it is not emitted by a fixed edifice such as a 
    ``building, structure, facility, or installation.'' Therefore, this 
    source category was excluded from the inventory of emission sources 
    that are potentially subject to standards under section 112(c)(6).
    3. Utility Emissions
        The language in section 112(c)(6) states that the ``paragraph shall 
    not be construed to require the Administrator to promulgate standards 
    for such pollutants emitted by electric utility steam generating 
    units.'' The EPA believes this statement gives the Agency discretion 
    about whether EPA is required to include utility emissions in the 
    section 112(c)(6) analysis. In section 112(n)(1)(A), EPA is required to 
    assess the HAP emissions from electric utility steam generating units 
    and to regulate if ``appropriate and necessary.'' More information 
    about the utility study can be obtained from the Clean Air Act 
    Amendments bulletin board of the EPA's electronic Technology Transfer 
    Network (TTN) under ``Recently Signed Rules,'' (http://
    ttnwww.rtpnc.epa.gov).
        The EPA believes that section 112(n)(1)(A) is the appropriate 
    authority for evaluating utility emissions and determining the 
    necessity of regulation for this source category. In the draft section 
    112(c)(6) listing notice, EPA proposed to credit the emissions of 
    section 112(c)(6) pollutants from utilities as subject to standards 
    through section 112(n)(1)(A). This interpretation was challenged by 
    commenters. Therefore, as discussed above, EPA has determined it to be 
    more appropriate to exclude utility emissions from those considered for 
    the section 112(c)(6) analysis and to address them under section 
    112(n)(1)(A).
    4. Consumer Products
        Consumer products, such as surface coatings, metal cleaning 
    solvents, personal care products, and household cleaning products 
    contribute significantly to emissions of POM, as defined in the 16-
    polyaromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) definition. These emissions are composed 
    primarily of naphthalene. These emissions come primarily from the use, 
    consumption, storage, disposal, destruction, or decomposition of such 
    products, and as such, do not fit the definition of ``stationary 
    source'' provided in sections 111(a)(3) and 112(a)(3). These emissions 
    were not quantified in the draft section 112(c)(6) emissions inventory 
    or draft listing Federal Register notice. The emissions estimates are a 
    result of inventory-development work on a concurrent EPA project 
    related to emissions in urban areas (section 112(c)(3) and 112(k)). The 
    EPA believes it is important that the emissions from consumer products 
    be identified and the public informed of their potential significance. 
    Although these emissions account for a significant fraction of total 
    16-PAH emissions, EPA does not consider them appropriate for regulation 
    under section 112 and believes instead that they should be addressed 
    through other means.
        Regulations for consumer products have been proposed for control of 
    volatile organic compounds (VOC) pursuant to section 183(e) of the Act 
    and are expected to result in significant reductions in VOC. 
    Naphthalene is a VOC. This provision requires EPA to account for 
    sources of 80 percent of total VOC emissions from consumer products in 
    ozone nonattainment areas and subject these sources to best available 
    controls.
        The proposed rule would affect approximately 220 consumer product 
    manufacturers and importers nationwide. Many of these companies are 
    already taking steps to reformulate their products to emit less VOC. 
    The EPA worked closely with these companies in developing the proposed 
    rule.
        More information on the proposed rule for consumer products can be 
    downloaded from the Clean Air Act Amendments bulletin board (under 
    ``Recently Signed Rules'') of EPA's electronic Technology Transfer 
    Network (TTN), or by calling (919) 541-5742.
    5. Refueling Emissions at Gasoline Dispensing Facilities
        Refueling emissions at gasoline dispensing facilities (gas 
    stations) occur when vapors are displaced from a motor vehicle's fuel 
    tank during the refueling process. Refueling accounts for 374 tons of 
    the 16-PAH emissions (naphthalene) in the 1990 base year inventory. The 
    EPA recognizes the importance of controlling these emissions but 
    believes that they are not appropriately the subject of regulation 
    under section 112.
        Promulgation of a section 112 standard to control emissions from 
    refueling would frustrate Congress' intent to regulate those emissions 
    through sections 182(b)(3) and 202(a)(6). Rather than treating 
    refueling emissions in the same manner that they treated other HAP 
    emissions, Congress elected to provide a special, comprehensive program 
    specifically tailored to refueling.
        The first step of the program, in section 182(b)(3), sets forth a 
    short-term solution. It requires the installation of controls on fuel 
    pumps to recover refueling emissions (``stage II'') and includes a 
    schedule which calls for prompt compliance with its requirements. Stage 
    II was initially required for gasoline dispensing facilities which sell 
    more than 10,000 gallons of gasoline per month (or 50,000 gallons per 
    month, in the case of independent small business marketers) in all 
    areas that are ``moderate'' or worse nonattainment areas for ozone. In 
    addition, section 184(b)(2) of the Act requires all areas in the ozone 
    transport region (OTR) to adopt stage II controls or control measures 
    capable of achieving comparable emissions reductions.
        The second step, in section 202(a)(6), mandates the use of vehicle-
    based vapor
    
    [[Page 17844]]
    
    recovery systems in all new light-duty vehicles (``onboard''). The 
    schedule provided in section 202(a)(6) allows for a lengthier 
    compliance process that imposes onboard controls after the installation 
    of Stage II. Upon promulgation of EPA's onboard regulations, the 
    section 182(b)(3) Stage II requirements no longer applied to 
    ``moderate'' ozone nonattainment areas, although States were free to 
    leave stage II controls in place. For instance, some States concluded 
    that stage II was necessary for them to meet reasonable further 
    progress or attainment and maintenance requirements under title I of 
    the Act. Moreover, States are free under section 116 of the Act to 
    apply Stage II requirements more stringently than is federally 
    required. Once EPA determines by rule that those onboard controls are 
    in widespread use throughout the motor vehicle fleet, the Stage II 
    controls may be scaled back in ``serious'' or worse ozone nonattainment 
    areas, while areas in the OTR will remain subject to the requirements 
    of section 184(b)(2) to apply Stage II or comparable measures.
        Enactment of sections 182(b)(3) and 202(a)(6) was preceded by 
    lengthy, detailed debate about the all aspects of Stage II and onboard 
    systems (e.g., S. Rep. No. 231, 100th Cong., 1st Sess. 404-407 (1987)), 
    including the safety of the systems (e.g., Environmental and Natural 
    Resources Policy Division, Library of Congress, 103d Cong., 1st Sess., 
    A Legislative History of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990, at 
    10729-33 (Comm. Print 1993) (statement of Sen. Coats)), the 
    relationship between the requirements (e.g., H.R. Rep. No. 490, 101st 
    Cong., 2d Sess., pt. 1, at 303-304 (1990)), and the costs imposed by 
    the controls (e.g., Legislative History, supra, at 4837, 4843 
    (statement of Sen. Chafee)). Moreover, Congress recognized that the 
    Stage II and onboard requirements of sections 182(b)(3) and 202(a)(6) 
    would produce substantial toxics benefits:
    
        Both Stage II and onboard are designed to capture emissions from 
    refueling of mobile sources. They capture emissions of benzene, a 
    known carcinogen, and other toxic pollutants (S. Rep. No. 231, at 
    23).
        Two other benefits attributable to Stage II systems are reduced 
    human exposure to toxics compounds and increased safety (S. Rep. No. 
    228, 101st Cong., 1st Sess. 40 (1989)).
        Onboard systems also reduce human exposure to toxic pollution 
    (S. Rep. No. 228, at 94).
    
    See also Legislative History, supra, at 5617-18 (statement of Sen. 
    Baucus); S. Rep. 231, at 137, 460.
        Congress' intent to comprehensively address refueling emissions 
    from gasoline dispensing stations through stage II and onboard 
    requirements is clearly illustrated by the focused regulatory scheme 
    provided in those provisions, by the prolonged and detailed debate on 
    the issue, and by the recognition that sections 182(b)(3) and 202(a)(6) 
    control toxics. Imposition of a section 112 standard upon that unique 
    arrangement would frustrate Congress' intent to control emissions from 
    refueling through the comprehensive regulatory structure anticipated by 
    sections 182(b)(3) and 202(a)(6).
        To be sure, other types of emission sources are subject to 
    regulation under more than one provision of the Act. For example, an 
    industrial facility may have both section 110 State implementation plan 
    requirements and section 112 air toxics standards. In those situations, 
    sources become subject to multiple requirements because Congress 
    constructed those parts of the Act to allow for overlapping coverage. 
    Sections 110 and 112 are intended to apply broadly to a wide range of 
    sources without excluding the application of other general 
    requirements. In the case of evaporative losses from vehicle refueling, 
    however, Congress required stage II and onboard as controls 
    specifically focused on regulating the emissions from a single type of 
    emission point after significant and lengthy discussion and after 
    recognizing that those controls accomplish the goals of section 112. 
    The unique structure and history of sections 182(b)(3) and 202(a)(6) 
    indicate Congress' intent to strike a balance between burdens on 
    gasoline station owners and refiners and to achieve a uniform, 
    comprehensive regulatory approach to control of refueling emissions. By 
    contrast, the remainder of the Act contemplates the application of 
    multiple provisions to sources.
        Recognition of Congress' plan to control refueling emissions 
    through stage II and onboard, rather than through MACT, does not affect 
    the public health. As mentioned above, Congress understood that the 
    emission reductions achieved by sections 182(b)(3) and 202(a)(6) will 
    be comparable to those achieved by a standard under section 112. The 
    onboard controls yield a 95 percent emissions reduction over 
    uncontrolled levels. Due to fleet turnover, 90 percent of light duty 
    vehicles are expected to be equipped with onboard controls by 2015. 
    Once it is fully phased in, onboard will achieve that level of control 
    for 97 percent of new vehicles and 94 percent of refueling emissions. 
    That will lead to reductions of VOC and HAP emissions of 300,000 to 
    400,000 tons per year. Imposition of a section 112 standard on 
    refueling would not be likely to achieve greater reductions.
        More information about stage II and onboard can be obtained at 
    EPA's Internet web site (http://www.epa.gov/OMSWWW/gopher/Regs/LD-hwy/
    Onboard/orvrq&a.txt).
    
    B. Defining ``Subject to Standards''
    
        The focus of the regulations under section 112(d) has been to 
    initially develop standards for emissions of air toxics based on the 
    MACT available for each industry source category emitting HAP. Section 
    112(c)(6) specifically states that sources that account for 90 percent 
    of emissions of section 112(c)(6) specific pollutants be subject to 
    standards under section 112(d)(2) or 112(d)(4). It is important to 
    recognize that in making sources ``subject to standards,'' the language 
    of section 112(c)(6) does not specify either a particular degree of 
    emissions control or a reduction in these specific pollutants' 
    emissions to be achieved by such regulations. Rather, specific control 
    requirements are set as referenced in section 112(d)(2) and (d)(4).
        In the next phase of section 112 programs (under section 112(f)), 
    EPA will evaluate the necessity of further emissions reductions in 
    order ``to provide an ample margin of safety to protect public health . 
    . . or to prevent, taking into consideration costs, energy, safety, and 
    other relevant factors, an adverse environmental effect.'' These latter 
    determinations will rely on information required by the 1990 Amendments 
    to the Act or gathered since they were passed. For example, the Dioxin 
    Reassessment Study, the Great Waters Report to Congress, and the 
    Mercury Report to Congress, represent extensive assessments of the 
    health effects and the potential exposure of humans and the environment 
    to the pollutants identified in section 112(c)(6). This information 
    will be used in future decisions regarding the imposition of health-
    based emission reductions.
    1. Section 112(d)(2)
        Section 112(d)(2) standards are based on the maximum level of 
    control, defined in section 112(d)(3) as the ``maximum degree of 
    reduction in emissions that is deemed achievable'' (i.e., MACT), as 
    determined by the best-performing 12 percent of sources within the 
    source category for existing sources. Section 112(d)(2) provides for 
    measures that (a) reduce the volume or eliminate emissions of HAP 
    through process
    
    [[Page 17845]]
    
    changes, substitution of materials or modifications; (b) enclose 
    systems or processes to eliminate HAP emissions; (c) collect, capture, 
    or treat HAP when released from a process, stack, storage, or fugitive 
    emissions point; (d) are design, equipment, work practice, or 
    operational standards (including requirements for operator training or 
    certification); or (e) are a combination of the above.
        Many source categories, which have been identified as ones that 
    account for the emissions of the various section 112(c)(6) pollutants, 
    have previously been listed for section 112(d)(2) regulation and appear 
    on the source category list promulgated for section 112(c)(1) (57 FR 
    31576, July 16, 1992; 61 FR 28197, June 4, 1996). These standards are 
    at varying phases of completion, and, for many, analysis has not yet 
    been initiated. In developing the basis for today's action, EPA relied 
    on the best available information. However, as EPA recognizes, and many 
    commenters have noted, many uncertainties remain concerning the 
    accuracy of its identification of source categories and estimates of 
    emissions. As the Agency proceeds to develop appropriate emission 
    standards, it will necessarily develop improved source category-
    specific information, which may affect the estimates of total 
    emissions, the percentage of emissions subject to standards, allocation 
    of emissions within a source category to major and area sources, and 
    source categories for which standards need to be developed. As it 
    proceeds to develop these standards and associated information, EPA 
    intends to further evaluate this information against its obligation to 
    assure that sources accounting for not less than 90 percent of 
    emissions are subject to standards. In accordance with section 
    112(c)(6), EPA is ultimately responsible for adopting regulations to 
    meet the 90 percent requirement.
        In cases where regulatory development has proceeded to a point such 
    that data are sufficient to estimate the portion of the emissions from 
    a given source category that will be subject to the regulation, such an 
    estimate was made. For instance, if a section 112(d)(2) standard will 
    apply only to sources determined to be major as defined in section 
    112(a), then only the fraction of the total source category emissions 
    that are estimated from major sources would be counted as subject to 
    standards. For example, the section 112(d)(2) standard for stage I 
    gasoline distribution (40 CFR part 63, subpart R, promulgated December 
    14, 1994) only regulates major sources, which account for 10 percent of 
    emissions from that source category. As a result, the section 112(c)(6) 
    analysis only credits 10 percent of the emissions (refer to Table 2).
    2. Section 112(d)(4)
        Congress provided in section 112(d)(4) that EPA could, at its 
    discretion, develop risk-based standards for HAP ``for which a health 
    threshold has been established,'' provided that the standard achieves 
    an ``ample margin of safety.'' The full text of the provision reads:
    
        With respect to pollutants for which a health threshold has been 
    established, the Administrator may consider such threshold level, 
    with an ample margin of safety, when establishing emission standards 
    under this subsection.
    
        A determination that a threshold exists has not been made for 
    alkylated lead, POM, hexachlorobenzene (HCB), polychlorinated biphenyls 
    (PCB's), 2,3,7,8-TCDF, or 2,3,7,8-TCDD. Therefore, section 112(d)(4) 
    authority has not been, and cannot yet be, used to regulate the 
    emissions of any of these pollutants.
        The EPA has established a reference dose (RfD) for methyl mercury 
    and a reference concentration (RfC) for inorganic mercury, but section 
    112(d)(4) has not been used in regulating the emissions of these 
    mercury compounds. Regulation based on these mercury thresholds is 
    difficult because EPA lacks a method to link deposition or ambient 
    concentrations to exposure concentrations for these pollutants. (A more 
    detailed discussion of section 112(d)(4) appears in the draft listing 
    Federal Register notice.)
    3. Section 129
        Some source categories identified as contributors to the estimates 
    of emissions of section 112(c)(6) pollutants are not currently listed 
    for regulation under section 112(d)(2), but are subject to section 129 
    standards.
        Because section 129 provides for a substantively equivalent level 
    of control as section 112(d)(2) and because section 129(h)(2) prohibits 
    subjecting solid waste incinerators to both section 129 and section 
    112(d) standards, the Agency believes that it is appropriate to include 
    section 129 as a regulatory instrument equivalent to section 112(d)(2). 
    The EPA further believes that listing source categories for section 
    112(c)(6) that are already covered under section 129 would lead to a 
    redundant regulatory effort and would produce no additional 
    environmental benefit. The EPA is, therefore, crediting the emissions 
    of section 112(c)(6) pollutants from section 129 source categories as 
    subject to standards under section 112(c)(6). A more complete 
    discussion of section 129 standards and comparison to section 112(d)(2) 
    standards is provided in the draft listing Federal Register notice.
        Some section 129 standards are being developed as part of the ICCR. 
    The ICCR is based on the authority of sections 112 and 129. Each of the 
    ICCR source categories will be subject to either section 112 or 129 
    authority (as noted in Table 2) depending on the materials the source 
    category burns (a conventional fuel or a waste product). This project 
    was discussed in detail in the draft listing notice. Source categories 
    previously identified in the draft notice as ICCR standards have been 
    modified to identify whether they will be subject to section 112 or 
    section 129 in conjunction with the ICCR. These identifications of 
    section 112 and 129 standards may change as EPA determines whether 
    combustion devices used at these sources burn ``fuel'' or ``waste.'' 
    Additional information about the ICCR is available on the EPA TTN or at 
    the ICCR Main Menu on the Internet (http://ttnwww.rtpnc.epa.gov). When 
    accessing the World Wide Web site, select ``TTN BBS Web'' from the 
    first menu, then select ``Gateway to Technical Areas'' from the second 
    menu, and, finally, select ``ICCR-Industrial Combustion Coordinated 
    Rulemaking'' from the third menu.
    
    C. Regulatory Coverage for Section 112(c)(6) Pollutants
    
        Table 2 provides a summary of the source categories that emit 
    section 112(c)(6) HAP and the percentage of emissions attributable to 
    each category. Note that as described in section IV.A., only the 
    sources that EPA believes are appropriate for regulation under section 
    112 are included in this analysis. Table 1 shows the full emissions 
    inventory.
        In Table 2, the percent contributions of source categories that are 
    eligible for section 112(d) standards (and, therefore, included in the 
    section 112(c)(6) analysis) are summed for each pollutant in order to 
    identify those section 112(c)(6) pollutants that do not have at least 
    90 percent of emissions subject to standards. Those section 112(c)(6) 
    pollutants at or above the 90 percent level are: POM (as defined by 
    EOM), 2,3,7,8-TCDD, mercury, PCB's, and HCB. These pollutants do not 
    appear, at this time, to require the listing of any additional source 
    categories for future rulemaking.
        Based on the 1990 baseline emissions inventory, the 90 percent 
    subject to standards requirement is not met for the
    
    [[Page 17846]]
    
    following pollutants: POM (as defined by 7-PAH), POM (as defined by 16-
    PAH), and alkylated lead. For these pollutants, additional source 
    categories will have to be identified to attain the 90 percent level. 
    These additional source categories are being listed under section 
    112(c)(6) for section 112(d)(2) or (d)(4) standards development. As 
    noted earlier, these listings, as presented now, are based on the best 
    information that is currently available. Given the above mentioned 
    uncertainties, however, EPA recognizes that the list may be subject to 
    change. Hence, the EPA anticipates that it may, in the future, amend 
    the list of source categories published in today's notice, in order to 
    fulfill the requirement to subject sources accounting for 90 percent of 
    the emissions of the section 112(c)(6) HAP to standards. For example, 
    as EPA evaluates a particular source category, it may find that area 
    sources contribute insignificantly to the emissions of POM and 
    regulation would not be necessary to attain the 90 percent requirement. 
    In such a situation, EPA may find it appropriate to take credit for 
    regulation of the major sources only. As better estimates of emissions 
    are developed during the MACT development process, EPA intends to 
    evaluate this information against its obligation to assure that sources 
    accounting for 90 percent of emissions are subject to standards. Any 
    future evaluation of the 90 percent requirement would have to be based 
    on 1990 emissions in order to maintain consistency.
    
    V. Source Categories That Require Listing as a Result of the 
    Section 112(c)(6) Analysis
    
        A review of the available data indicates that a substantial 
    majority of source categories emitting section 112(c)(6) pollutants 
    have already been listed for regulation under section 112(d)(2) or are 
    subject to regulation under equivalent authorities. Based on EPA's 
    current information, in order to meet the section 112(c)(6) requirement 
    to assure that the sources of at least 90 percent of the aggregate 
    emissions of each specific HAP are subject to standards, the following 
    source categories require such listing: Open burning of scrap tires and 
    gasoline distribution, leaded aviation fuel. The source category, wood 
    treatment and preservation, had appeared in the draft listing Federal 
    Register notice, but has been removed from consideration for this list. 
    Comments were submitted that significantly reduced the emissions 
    estimates for this source category, as well as changes that affected 
    estimates of other source category emissions, resulting in a lower 
    percent contribution from this source category and in its removal from 
    this listing.
        This listing under section 112(c)(6) identifies source categories 
    for which standards under section 112(d)(2) or (d)(4) will be 
    developed, but by itself does not automatically result in regulation or 
    control of emissions from sources within these source categories. The 
    EPA will perform further analyses on emissions and control methods for 
    the listed source categories. This regulatory development analysis will 
    determine any ultimate regulatory requirements.
        A summary of the reasons for each of the above source category's 
    inclusion follows.
    --Open burning of scrap tires: Although data submitted in response to 
    the draft listing package resulted in a significant reduction in the 
    emissions estimate for this source category, it still accounts for a 
    significant portion of POM emissions in the section 112(c)(6) analysis 
    (14.3 percent defined as 7-PAH, and 3.4 percent defined as 16-PAH). 
    Subjecting emissions from this source to standards will bring the 
    percentage of 7-PAH emissions that are subject to standards up to the 
    level of 99.3 percent, and 16-PAH emissions up to the level of 90.2 
    percent.
        The EPA realizes that scrap tires are not routinely burned in the 
    open as part of agricultural or industrial processes and that these 
    sources are different from facilities designed for the incineration of 
    scrap tires. There are numerous storage piles of scrap tires across the 
    country created through legal and illegal practices. These storage 
    piles are often set on fire by arson, accident, or natural causes 
    (lightning). Some states and organizations have created rules and 
    guidelines designed to reduce and eventually eliminate the fire threat 
    posed by stockpiled tires. The EPA will consider these efforts in 
    developing a section 112(d)(2) standard for this source category. These 
    emissions involve inadvertent and incidental releases of emissions 
    rather than discharges as a direct result of process operations; as 
    such it is analogous to the incidental but significant release of 
    emissions through process leaks or from solvent-laden cleaning rags. 
    The EPA believes it can subject these sources to standards in a fashion 
    similar to its approach to other sources from which significant 
    emissions could result from unsafe or ineffective work management 
    practices.
    --Gasoline distribution, aviation fuel: This category, consists of 
    evaporative losses from the transfer and storage of leaded aviation 
    fuel, and aircraft refueling and associated spillage. Note that these 
    emissions are associated with fuel containing alkylated lead, commonly 
    referred to as aviation gas, and used primarily in general aviation 
    aircraft. This is not the same as commercial jet fuel. This source 
    category accounts for 81.3 percent of the 1990 base year inventory. 
    However, since leaded gasoline has been banned for use in motor 
    vehicles since the 1990 inventory estimate, this source category 
    accounts for the only known remaining emissions of alkylated lead. Thus 
    listing this source category will subject 100 percent of current 
    alkylated lead emissions to standards.
    
    VI. Regulatory Requirements
    
    A. General
    
        Today's notice is not a rule; it is essentially a housekeeping or 
    maintenance activity which does not impose regulatory requirements or 
    costs on any sources, including small businesses. Therefore, the EPA 
    has not prepared an economic impact analysis pursuant to section 317 of 
    the Act, nor a regulatory flexibility analysis pursuant to the 
    Regulatory Flexibility Act (Pub. L. 96-354, September 19, 1980), nor a 
    budgetary impact statement pursuant to the Unfunded Mandates Act of 
    1995. 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.
    
    B. Executive Order 12866 and Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 
    Review
    
        Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735; October 4, 1993), the 
    Agency must determine whether a regulatory action is ``significant'' 
    and therefore subject to 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 this economy of $100 million or more, or adversely and 
    materially 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
    
    [[Page 17847]]
    
    the principles set forth in the Executive Order.
        Pursuant to the terms of Executive Order 12866, this is not a 
    ``significant regulatory action'' within the meaning of the Executive 
    Order. This notice was submitted to OMB for review. Any written 
    comments from OMB and written EPA responses are available in the 
    docket.
    
    C. Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996
    
        Today's action is not a rule subject to notice-and-comment 
    requirements and is thus not subject to the Small Business Regulatory 
    Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996. In addition, as mentioned above, this 
    notice merely lists categories of sources and does not impose any 
    regulatory requirements. Consequently, this notice will not have any 
    economic impact on small entities.
    
    D. Submission to Congress and the Comptroller General
    
        The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the 
    Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, does not 
    apply because this action is not a rule, as that term is defined in 5 
    U.S.C. 804(3).
    
        Dated: April 3, 1998.
    Richard D. Wilson,
    Acting Assistant Administrator for Air and Radiation.

    a Source categories for which major sources are listed for regulation under section 112(c)(1), but for which the EPA is not counting emissions toward   
      the section 112(c)(6) 90 percent goal. These source categories emit minor amounts of 112(c)(6) HAPs, and, as such, although the major sources in the  
      source category will be regulated under section 112(d)(2), as already planned, the area sources will not.                                             
    b At this time, it is unclear as to whether this source category will be regulated as section 112 or section 129 authority.

    a 112 Source Category Names were from the National Emission Standard for Hazardous Air Pollutants; Revision of  
      List of Categories of Sources and Schedule for Standards Under Section 112 of the Clean Air Act, Federal      
      Register Notice, February 12, 1998 pages 7155-7166.                                                           
    b The reader is referred to a November 7, 1996 Federal Register Notice (61 FR 57602) which concerns the         
      anticipated listing action involving the subsumption of a number of source categories into one source         
      category, called the Miscellaneous Organic Chemical Processes source category. Each of the anticipated        
      subsumed categories are scheduled for standards promulgation no later than November 15, 2000; thus, the new   
      source category would be also scheduled for that regulatory time frame.                                       
    c Source category ``chromium refractory production'' will be expanded to become ``refractories production.''    
    d The Industrial Combustion Coordinated Rulemaking (ICCR) is to regulate various combustion sources by          
      consolidating authorities under sections 112 and 129. The section 112 categories are: combustion turbines,    
      reciprocating internal combustion engines, process heaters, institutional/commercial boilers, and industrial  
      boilers; while the section 129 categories are: industrial/commercial incinerators and other solid waste       
      incinerators.
