BACKGROUND AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR

PLATING AND POLISHING INFORMATION REQUEST (Form No. 2186.01)

Background and Instructions

Section 112 of the Clean Air Act outlines the statutory requirements for the EPA’s stationary 

source air toxics program. Section 112(k) requires the development of standards for area sources which 

account for 90 percent of the emissions in urban areas of the 33 urban hazardous air pollutants (HAP) 

listed in the Integrated Urban Air Toxics Strategy. The Integrated Urban Air Toxics Strategy lists 

plating and polishing as an area source category. The plating and polishing source category is defined to 

include establishments primarily engaged in all types of electroplating, plating, polishing (using 

physical, chemical, or electrochemical processes), thermal or metal spraying, anodizing, coloring, and 

finishing of metals and formed products for the trade. Please note that chromium emissions from 

chromium electroplating and anodizing tanks are regulated under 40 CFR 63, subpart N and will 

not be addressed under the plating and polishing source category. We are requesting in question 

I.G that you identify electroplating finishes, including chromium, applied in your facility and we 

are requesting facility chromium emissions in Table 1 but we are not requesting any further 

information on chromium electroplating operations

The EPA will use the information collected from this questionnaire to evaluate the need for area 

source National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for the plating and 

polishing area source category. If an area source NESHAP is developed, the collected information will 

be used to evaluate the types of provisions needed to limit HAP emissions from plating and polishing 

operations and to estimate the impacts of regulatory options.

. Also note that the electroplating, electroless 

plating, polishing, anodizing, thermal or metal spraying, coloring, and finishing processes covered 

by this questionnaire will be referred to generically as plating and polishing.

Please answer all questions unless not applicable to your facility or operations, in which case 

note that the question is not applicable. All information should be for the reporting year. Readily 

available information should be used; no additional emission testing or monitoring is required to 

respond to this questionnaire.

If you believe that a disclosure of any specific information that you submit would reveal a trade 

secret or other sensitive business information, clearly identify such information as “Confidential.” 

Please do not label an entire response "Confidential" if only certain portions consist of trade secret or 

sensitive business information. Refer to Enclosure 2 for the information the EPA may require, at a later 

time, to support your confidentiality claims. Any information determined to constitute a trade secret 

will be protected under 18 U.S.C. 1905. If no claim of confidentiality accompanies the information 

when it is received by the EPA, it may be made available to the public by the EPA without further notice 

(40 CFR Part 2.203, September 1, 1976). Because Section 114 of the Clean Air Act exempts emission 

data from claims of confidentiality, the emission data you provide may be made available to the public. 

A clarification of what the EPA considers to be emission data is contained in Enclosure 3.

1 Pollution prevention means any practice that reduces or eliminates the creation of pollutants through 

increased efficiency in the use of raw materials, energy, water, or other resources. Examples include 

substituting a hazardous material with a non-hazardous material, or a process change that eliminates 

the use of a hazardous material.

2 Dragout refers to residual plating or finishing bath solution that remains on parts or workpieces after 

they are removed from the tank.
