NOTICE OF DOCUMENT AVAILABILITY 

On June 19, 1986, the Administrator of the U. S. Environmental 

Protection Agency (EPA) proposed standards of performance for industrialcommercial -institutional steam generating units with heat input capacities 

greater than 29 MW (100 million Btu/hour) under Section 111 of the Clean Air 

Act, as amended. The standards would control air emissions of sulfur 

dioxide (S02) from new, modified, and reconstructed steam generating units 

in the United States. 

We are providing for your convenience a listing of more than two dozen 

new reports related to the June 19, 1986, rulemaking. These reports were 

recently added to EPA Docket A-83-27 which contains all material related 

to this rulemaking. Copies of six of these reports are also enclosed. 

Five of the enclosed reports are related to revised cost and 

cost-effectiveness estimates associated with updated fuel prices. The 

sixth report provides estimates of the cost and cost effectiveness of 

standards of performance based on historical boiler sales data and 

boiler use patterns. These six reports complement the four reports 

previously mailed to you on April 27, 1987. 

Please make copies of the attached reports and list and distribute to 

your membership, as appropriate, or refer your membership to EPA 

Docket A-83-27. Docket A-83-27 is available for public inspection and 

copying between 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Monday through Friday at EPA's 

Central Docket Section (LE-131), South Conference Center, Room 4, 401 M 

Street, S.W., Washington, D. C. 20460. A reasonable fee may be charged for 

copying.
