Process Source Opt-in Program Technical Background Document

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of draft report for public comment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Acid Rain Division (ARD) of the U.S. Environmental 
Protection Agency (EPA) is preparing this technical background document 
to gather relevant information, in preparation of an upcoming 
rulemaking, on various process source industries that emit sulfur 
dioxide (SO2). This rulemaking will implement section 410(d) of 
the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments and will expand participation into 
the Opt-in Program for process sources that are able to meet program 
requirements.
    EPA seeks public participation in developing this rulemaking to 
build a solid technical foundation on which to establish program 
requirements. In addition, the number and variety of industries that 
could potentially participate in this program make public input 
essential in crafting a regulation that can specifically address the 
many aspects of participation (e.g. allowance allocation, monitoring, 
etc.) and, at the same time, be flexible in accommodating differing 
approaches taken in different industries.

DATES: The draft Process Source Opt-in Program: Technical Background 
Document will be available for review and comment. EPA requests 
comments on or before July 24, 1995.
