6560 - 50 - P ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY 40 CFR Part 60 [EPA - HQ - OAR - 2003 - 0119; FRL - ] RIN 2060 - AO12 Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources and Emission Guidelines for Existing Sources: Commercial and Industrial Solid Waste Incinerati on Units
AGENCY : Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION : Proposed rule.
SUMMARY : On December 1, 2000, EPA adopted new source performance standards and emission guidelines for commercial and industrial solid waste incineration units established under Sections 111 and 129 of the Clean Air Act. In 2001 , EPA granted a petition for reconsideration regarding the definitions of "commercial and industrial waste" and "commercial and industrial solid waste incineration unit." In 2001, the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit granted EPA’s voluntary remand, without vacatur, of the 2000 rule. In 2005, EPA proposed and finalized the commercial and industrial solid waste incineration definition rule which revised the definitio n of “solid waste,” "commercial and industrial waste," and "commercial and industrial waste incineration unit." In 2007, the United States Court of2 Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit vacated and remanded the 2005 commercial and industrial solid waste incineration definition rule. This action provides EPA’s response to the 2001 voluntary remand of the 2000 rule and the vacatur and remand of the commercial and industrial solid waste incineration definition rule in 2007. In addition, this action i ncludes the five

- year technology review of the new source performance standards and emission guidelines required under Section 129. This action also proposes other amendments that EPA believes are necessary to adequately address air emissions from commerc ial and industrial solid waste incineration units.

The TTN provides information and technology exchange in various areas of air pollution control. II. Background
A. What is the statutory a uthority for th ese proposed rules ? Section 129 of the Clean Air Act (CAA), entitled “Solid Waste Combustion,” requires EPA to develop and adopt standards for solid waste incineration units pursuant to CAA Sections 111 and 129. Section 129(a)(1)(A) of the CAA requires EP A to establish performance standards, including emission limitations, for “ solid waste incineration units ” generally and , in particular, for “ solid waste incineration units combusting commercial or industrial waste ” (CAA Section 129 (a)(1)(D)). Section 129 of the CAA defines

“ solid waste incineration unit ” as “ a distinct operating unit of any facility which combusts any solid waste material from commercial or industrial establishments or13 the general public ” ( Section 129(g)(1)). Section 129 of the CAA also provides that “ solid waste ” shall have the meaning established by EPA pursuant to its authority under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA)
. ( Section 129(g)(6)).
In Natural Resources Defense Council v. EPA, 489 F. 3d 1250 (D.C. Cir. 2007), the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit (the C ourt ) vacated the CISWI Definitions Rule, 70 FR 55568 (Sept ember 22, 2005), which EPA issued pursuant to CAA S ection 129(a)(1)(D). In that rule, EPA defined the term

“ commercial or industrial solid waste incineration unit ” to mean a combustion unit that combusts “ commercial or industrial waste. ” The rule defined “ commercial or industrial waste ” to mean waste combusted at a unit that does not recover thermal energy from the combusti on for a useful purpose. Under these definitions, only those units that combusted commercial or industrial waste and were not designed to, or did not operate to, recover thermal energy from the combustion , were subject to S ection 129 standards. In vacati ng the rule, the C ourt found that the definitions in the CISWI Definitions Rule were inconsistent with the CAA. Specifically, the Court held that the term “ solid waste incineration unit ” in CAA S ection 129(g)(1)14

“ unambiguously include [s] among the inciner ation units subject to its standards any facility that combusts any commercial or industrial solid waste material at all

— subject to the four statutory exceptions identified [ in CAA
S ection 129(g)(1)] .” NRDC v. EPA, 489 F.3d at 1257

– 58. In response to t he Court’s vacatur of the CISWI Definitions rule, EPA initiated a rulemaking to define which non - hazardous secondary materials are “ solid waste ” for purposes of subtitle D (non

- hazardous waste) of the
RCRA when burned in a combustion unit. ( See Advance No tice of Proposed Rulemaking ( 74 FR 41 , January 2, 2009) soliciting comment on whether certain non - hazardous secondary materials used as alternative fuels or ingredients are solid wastes within the meaning of Subtitle D of the RCRA )
. That definition, in tu rn, would determine the applicability of CAA S ection 129(a) to commercial and industrial combustion units
. In a parallel action, EPA is proposing a definition of solid waste pursuant to Subtitle D of RCRA. That action is relevant to this proceeding becaus e some energy recovery units and kilns combust solid waste as alternative fuels
. Such units that combust solid waste (as defined pursuant to Subtitle D of RCRA) would be subject to standards under the CAA Section 129 CISWI rules rather than under Section 11215

rules applicable to boilers and kilns (e.g. cement kilns)
. EPA recognizes that it has imperfect information on the exact nature of the non - hazardous secondary materials which energy recovery units and kilns combust, including, for example, information as to the provider(s) of the non hazardous secondary materials, how much processing the non hazardous secondary materials may have undergone, if any, and other issues potentially relevant in a determination as to whether non - hazardous secondary materials a re solid waste, as the Administrator has proposed to define that term under RCRA. We nevertheless used the information currently available to EPA to determine which materials are solid waste, the burning of which would subject a unit to CAA Section 129, a nd which materials are not solid waste. Energy recovery units and kilns that are burning non

hazardous secondary materials that are not solid waste would be subject to the standard under CAA Section 112 that is applicable to such units. We based th e stan dards in th is proposed rule on the sources we determined would be subject to CISWI because they combust solid waste as defined in EPA’s proposed Solid Waste Definition Rulemaking, which, as noted above, is being proposed in parallel with this proposed rule
.16 Sections 111(b) and 129(a) of the CAA (NSPS program) address emissions from new CISWI units and CAA Sections 111(d) and 129(b) (EG program) address emissions from existing CISWI units. The NSPS are directly enforceable federal regulations and under CAA Section 129(f)(1) become effective six months after promulgation. Under CAA Section 129(f)(2), the EG become effective and enforceable no later than three years after EPA approves a state plan implementing the EG or five years after the date they are
prom ulgated, whichever is earlier. The CAA sets forth a two

- stage approach to regulating emissions from solid waste incinerator units. The statute also provides EPA with substantial discretion to distinguish among classes, types and sizes of incinerator units within a category while setting standards. In the first stage of setting standards, CAA Section 129(a)(2) requires EPA to establish technology

- based emission standards that reflect levels of control EPA determines are achievable for new and existing unit s, after considering costs, non
- air quality health and environmental impacts and energy requirements associated with the implementation of the standards. Section 129(a)(5) of the CAA then directs EPA to review those standards and revise them as necessary
every five years. In the second stage, CAA Section17 129(h)(3) requires EPA to determine whether further revisions of the standards are necessary in order to provide an ample margin of safety to protect public health.
See , e.g. , NRDC and LEAN v. EPA , 529 F .3d 1077, 1079

- 80 (D.C. Cir. 2008) (addressing the similarly required two

stage approach under CAA Sections 112(d) and (f) and upholding EPA’s implementation of same). In setting forth the methodology EPA must use to establish the first

- stage technology

- ba sed standards, CAA Section 129(a)(2) provides that standards “applicable to solid waste incineration units promulgated under Section 111 and this section shall reflect the maximum degree of reduction in emissions of [certain listed air pollutants] that the Administrator, taking into consideration the cost of achieving such emission reduction and any non

- air quality health and environmental impacts and energy requirements, determines is achievable for new and existing units in each category.” This level of control is referred to as a maximum achievable control technology, or MACT standard. In promulgating a MACT standard, EPA must first calculate the minimum stringency levels for new and existing solid waste incineration units in a category, generally based on levels of emissions control achieved or18 required to be achieved by the subject units. The minimum level of stringency is called the MACT “floor,” and CAA Section 129(a)(2) sets forth differing levels of minimum stringency that EPA’s standards must achi eve, based on whether they regulate new and reconstructed sources, or existing sources. For new and reconstructed sources, CAA Section 129(a)(2) provides that the “degree of reduction in emissions that is deemed achievable . . . shall not be less stringen t than the emissions control that is achieved in practice by the best controlled similar unit, as determined by the Administrator.” Emissions standards for existing units may be less stringent than standards for new units, but “shall not be less stringent than the average emissions limitation achieved by the best performing 12 percent of units in the category.” The MACT floors form the least stringent regulatory option EPA may consider in the determination of MACT standards for a source category. EPA must also determine whether to control emissions “beyond

- the

- floor,” after considering the costs, non

- air quality health and environmental impacts and energy requirements of such more stringent control. In general, all MACT analyses involve an assessment of the emissions from the best performing units in a source19 category. The assessment can be based on actual emissions data, knowledge of the air pollution control in place in combination with actual emissions data, or on state regulatory requirements that ma y enable EPA to estimate the actual performance of the regulated units. For each source category, the assessment involves a review of actual emissions data with an appropriate accounting for emissions variability. Other methods of estimating emissions ca n be used provided that the methods can be shown to provide reasonable estimates of the actual emissions performance of a source or sources. Where there is more than one method or technology to control emissions, the analysis may result in a series of pot ential regulations (called regulatory options), one of which is selected as MACT. Each regulatory option EPA considers must be at least as stringent as the CAA’s minimum stringency “floor” requirements. EPA must examine, but is not necessarily required to adopt, more stringent “beyond

- the

- floor” regulatory options to determine MACT. Unlike the floor minimum stringency requirements, EPA must consider various impacts of the more stringent regulatory options in determining whether MACT standards are to refle ct “beyond

the

- floor” requirements. If EPA concludes that the more stringent regulatory options have unreasonable impacts, EPA20

selects the “floor

- based” regulatory option as MACT. But if EPA concludes that impacts associated with “beyond

- the

floor” level s of control are acceptable in light of additional emissions reductions achieved, EPA selects those levels as MACT. As stated earlier, the CAA requires that MACT for new sources be no less stringent than the emissions control achieved in practice by the be st controlled similar unit. Under CAA Section 129(a)(2), EPA determines the best control currently in use for a given pollutant and establishes one potential regulatory option at the emission level achieved by that control with an appropriate accounting f or emissions variability. More stringent potential beyond

- the

- floor regulatory options might reflect controls used on other sources that could be applied to the source category in question. For existing sources, the CAA requires that MACT be no less strin gent than the average emissions limitation achieved by the best performing 12 percent of units in a source category. EPA must determine some measure of the average emissions limitation achieved by the best performing 12 percent of units to form the floor regulatory option. More stringent beyond

- the

- floor regulatory options21 reflect other or additional controls capable of achieving better performance.
B . What are the p rimary s ources of e missions and w hat are the e missions and current controls ? We are pr oposing to define a CISWI unit as any combustion unit at a commercial or industrial facility that is used to combust solid waste (as defined under the RCRA). See proposed 40 C.F.R. 60.2265 (NSPS) and 60.2875 (EG). In this proposed rule, CISWI units inclu de incinerators designed to discard waste materials; energy recovery units (e.g. , units that would be boilers if they did not burn solid waste) designed for heat recovery that combust solid waste materials; kilns and other industrial units that combust sol id waste materials in the manufacture of a product; and burn

- off ovens that combust residual materials off racks, parts, drums or hooks so that those items can be

re - used in various production processes. Combustion of solid waste causes the release of a wide array of air pollutants, some of which exist in the waste feed material and are released unchanged during combustion and some of which are generated as a result of the combustion process itself. These pollutants include particulate matter (PM); metal s, including lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd) and mercury (Hg); toxic organics, including22

chlorinated dibenzo

- p - dioxins/dibenzofurans (dioxin, furans); carbon monoxide (CO); nitrogen oxides (NO x ); and acid gases, including hydrogen chloride (HCl) and sulfur dioxide (SO 2 ). Depending on the type of unit and currently applicable regulations or permit conditions, units may or may not be equipped with add

- on control devices to control emissions. For example, m ost of the CISWI units that operate without heat recovery a re not equipped with add

- on controls. Those that are controlled use wet scrubbers, dry scrubbers, electrostatic precipitators (ESPs), or fabric filters, either alone or in combination. Some energy recovery units that combust solid waste are not equipped with add

- on controls, but most are controlled with one or more of the following: cyclones or multi

- clones, fabric filters, ESPs, wet scrubbers, venturi scrubbers, selective non

- catalytic reduction (SNCR) or spray dryers. In addition to add

- on controls, m any CISWI units are controlled through the use of pollution prevention measures (i.e., waste segregation) and good combustion control practices. Waste segregation is the separation of certain components of the waste stream in order to reduce the
amount o f air pollution emissions associated with that waste when incinerated. The separated waste may include23 paper, cardboard, plastics, glass, batteries or metals. Separation of wastes can reduce the amount of chlorine

- and metal

- containing wastes being incin erated, which results in lower emissions of HCl, dioxin, furans, Hg, Cd and Pb. Good c ombustion control practices include proper design, construction, operation and maintenance practices to destroy or prevent the formation of air pollutants prior to their release to the atmosphere. Test data for other types of combustion units indicate that as secondary chamber residence time and temperature increase, emissions decrease. Proper mixing of flue gases in the combustion chamber also promotes complete combusti on. Combustion control is most effective in reducing dioxin, furans, other organic pollutants, PM, NO x and CO emissions. The 2000 CISWI standards and the proposed revised standards are designed to reduce air pollutants, including HCl, CO, Pb, Cd, Hg, PM, dioxin, furans (total, or 2,3,7,8

- tetrachlorinated dibenzo

- p - dioxin toxic equivalent (TEQ)),
NO X and SO 2 , emitted from new and existing CISWI units.
Units in the incinerator subcategory as defined in this proposed rule are currently subject to the 2000 CI SWI standards and are already required to be in compliance with the NSPS or EG . The 2000 CISWI NSPS apply to CISWI units in the incinerator subcategory if construction of a unit24
began after November 30, 1999, or if modification of a unit began after June 1, 2001. The 2000 CISWI NSPS apply to units in the incinerator subcategory and became effective on June 1, 2001 , and apply as of that date or at start

- up of a CISWI incinerator unit , whichever is later. The 2000 CISWI EG apply to CISWI units in the incin erator subcategory if construction of a unit began on or before November 30, 1999 , and compliance was required at the latest by December 2005. Th is proposed rule would establish revised standards for units in the incinerator

su bcategory and establish stan dards for the other four subcategories of CISWI units , and the emission limitations in the proposed revised NSPS and EG would apply at all times.
C. What is the relationship between this proposed rule and other combustion rules ? This proposed rule addres ses the combustion of solid waste materials (as defined by the Administrator under the
RCRA ) in combustion units at commercial and industrial facilities . If an owner or operator of a CISWI unit ceases combusting solid waste, the affected unit would no lon ger be subject to this regulation under CAA Section 129. A rulemaking under CAA Section 11 2 is being proposed in a parallel action that is relevant to this action because it25 would apply to boilers and process heaters located at a major source that do not combust solid waste
. EPA has also proposed , but not yet finali z ed , revised Section 112 National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for cement kilns
. See 74 FR 21136 (May 6, 2009) (proposing revisions to 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart LLL )
. Cement kilns burning solid waste would be subject to this proposed rule, not the applicable NESHAP. III. Summary of the Proposed Rule
A. Litigation and Proposed Remand Response 1. What is the history of the CISWI standards ? On December 1, 2000, EPA pu blished a notice of final rulemaking establishing the NSPS and EG for CISWI units (60 FR 75338), hereinafter referred to as the 2000 CISWI rule. Thereafter, on August 17, 2001, EPA granted a request for reconsideration, pursuant to CAA Section 307(d)(7)(B ) of the CAA, submitted on behalf of the National Wildlife Federation and the Louisiana Environmental Action Network, related to the definition of “commercial and industrial solid waste incineration unit” and “commercial or industrial waste” in EPA’s CISWI rulemaking. In granting the petition for reconsideration, EPA agreed to undertake further notice and comment proceedings related to these definitions. In addition, on January 30, 2001, the Sierra2 6 Club filed a petition for review in the U.S. Court of App eals for the District of Columbia Circuit challenging EPA’s final CISWI rule. On September 6, 2001, the Court entered an order granting EPA’s motion for a voluntary remand of the CISWI rule, without vacatur. EPA’s request for a voluntary remand of the fi nal CISWI rule was taken to allow the EPA to address concerns related to EPA’s procedures for establishing MACT floors for CISWI units in light of the Court’s decision in Cement Kiln Recycling Coalition v. EPA, 255 F.3d 855 (DC Cir. 2001)( Cement Kiln )
. Ne ither EPA’s granting of the petition for reconsideration, nor the Court’s order granting a voluntary remand, stayed, vacated or otherwise influenced the effectiveness of the 2000 CISWI rule. Specifically, CAA Section 307(d)(7)(B) provides that “reconsider ation shall not postpone the effectiveness of the rule,” except that “[t]he effectiveness of the rule may be stayed during such reconsideration * * * by the Administrator or the court for a period not to exceed three months.” Neither EPA nor the
Court sta yed the effectiveness of the final CISWI regulations in connection with the reconsideration petition. In addition, the D istrict of Columbia Circuit granted EPA’s motion for a remand without vacatur;27 therefore, the Court’s remand order had no impact on the implementation of the 2000 CISWI rule
. On February 17, 2004, EPA published a proposed rule soliciting comments on the definitions of “solid waste,” “commercial and industrial waste,” and “commercial and industrial solid waste incineration unit”. On Sep tember 22, 2005, EPA published in the Federal Register the final rule reflecting our decisions with respect to the CISWI Definitions Rule. The rule was challenged and, on June 8, 2007, the Court vacated and remanded the CISWI Definitions Rule. In vacatin g the rule, the Court found that CAA Section 12 9 unambiguously include s among the incineration units subject to its standards any facility that combusts
any solid waste material at all , subject to four statutory exceptions. While the Court vacated the CIS WI Definitions Rule, the 2000 CISWI rule remains in effect. This action provides EPA’s response to the voluntary remand of the 2000 CISWI rule and to the 2007 vacatur and remand of the CISWI Definitions Rule. In addition, this action addresses the five

- ye ar technology review that is required under CAA Section 129(a)(5). 2. What was EPA’s MACT floor methodology in the 2000 CISWI rulemaking and how has the methodology been changed to respond to the voluntary remand?28
In 2000, the methodology that EPA follo wed to establish the MACT floors included identification of a “MACT floor technology” and calculation of MACT floors using emission information from all units, not only the best performing units, that employed the MACT floor control technology. EPA recogn ized that this methodology was rejected by the Court in the Cement Kiln case, which was decided after EPA promulgated the 2000 CISWI standards. In light of the court decision, EPA requested a voluntary remand of the CISWI standards to re

- evaluate those
st andards in light of the Cement Kiln decision in order to correct the methodology. See Cement Kiln, 255 F.3d 855 ( Finding that EPA is permi t ted to account for variability by setting floors at a level that reasonably estimates the performance of the best co ntrolled similar unit (or units) under the worst reasonably for e seeable circumstances, but not the worst foreseeable circu m stances faced by any unit in the source category )
. Accordingly, this action does not use the MACT floor methodology from 2000. In stead, we used emission s test
data to calculate the MACT floors. 2 For existing units, we

2 EPA did receive some additional emissions data earlier this year, but due to the court

- ordered deadline, we did not have time to review and evaluate that data. We intend to review the data submitted earlier this year f rom a29 ranked individual CISWI units based on actual performance and established MACT floors based on the average of the best performing 12 percent of sources for each pollu tant and subcategory, with an appropriate accounting for emissions variability. That is, the overall 3

- run test average values for existing units for each pollutant were compiled and ranked to identify the best performing 12 percent of sources for each po llutant within each subcategory. Once identified, the individual test run data for these units were compiled and analyzed for variability. As discussed in more detail in Section IV.C of this preamble, for the variability analysis , we first conducted

a s tatistical analyses to determin e whether the data used for the MACT floor calculation had a normal or log

- normal distribution followed by calculation of the average and the
99 th percent upper limit (UL)
. 3 The UL represents a value that 99 percent of the d ata in the MACT floor data
quality assurance and completeness perspective and incorporate that data into the final standards, as appropriate. To the extent EPA receives additional emissions data during the comment period, EPA will assess that data as it develops the final emi ssion standards. 3 The procedure is the same as used for the Hospital/Medical/Infectious Waste Incinerators (HMIWI) rule (74 FR 51367). While the HMIWI preamble referred to this measure as the upper confidence limit (UCL), it used the same equation. In th is proposal, we refer to the measure as the UL, which is a more appropriate statistical terminology for this calculation.30 population would fall below, and therefore accounts for variability between the individual test runs in the MACT floor data set. The UL is calculated by the following equation that is appropriate for small data sets:

s * n) t(0.99, x UL + = Where :

x = average of the data
. t (0.99,n) = t
- statistic
.
n = number of data points in the population
.
s = standard deviation
. The summary statistics and analyses are presented in the docket and further described in Section IV.C of this
pr eamble
. The calculated U L values for existing sources (which are based on emissions data from the best performing 12 percent of sources and evaluate variability) w ere selected as the proposed MACT floor emission limit s for the nine regulated pollutants in each subcategory . This statistical approach is consistent with the methodology used in the October 6, 2009 , Hospital/Medical/Infectious Waste Incinerators (HMIWI) rule (74 FR 51367)
. EPA conducted this MACT floor analysis for each pollutant for each of the five CISWI subcategories we are establishing in this proposed rule : incinerators; energy recovery units;
waste
- burning kilns; burn

- off ovens; and small, remote31

incinerators. To determine the MACT floor for new sources, we used a UL calculation similar to that for existing sources, except the best performing unit’s data within a subcategory was used to calculate the MACT floor emission limit for each pollutant instead of the average of the best performing 12 percent of units. In summary, the approach r anks individual CISWI units based on actual performance and establishes MACT floors based on the best performing source for each pollutant and subcategory, with an appropriate accounting of emissions variability. In other words, the UL was determined for the data set of individual test run s for the single best performing source for each regulated pollutant from each subcategory
. EPA also solicits comment on whether EPA should use an alternate statistical interval, the 99 percent upper prediction limit (U PL) instead of the UL . In general, a prediction interval (e.g., a UPL) is useful in determining what future values are likely to be, based upon present or past background samples taken. The 99 percent UPL represents the value that one can expect the mean of future 3

- run performance tests from the best

- performing 12 percent of sources to fall below with 99 percent confidence, based upon the results of the independent sample of observations32 from the same best performing sources. The 99 percent UPL value ba sed on the test run data for those units in the best

- performing 12 percent c ould be calculated using one of the following spreadsheet equations depending on the distribution of data : Normal distribution: 99% UPL = AVERAGE(Test Runs in Top 12%) + [STDEV(Te st Runs in Top 12%) x TINV(2 x probability, n - 1 degrees of freedom) x SQRT((1/n) + (1/m))], for a one

tailed upper prediction limit with a probability of 0.01, sample size of n and number of runs whose average will be reported to EPA for compliance of m = 3. Lognormal distribution: 99% UPL = EXP{AVERAGE(Natural Log Values of Test Runs in Top 12%) + [STDEV(Natural Log Values of Test Runs in Top 12%) x TINV(2 x probability, n

- 1 degrees of freedom) x SQRT((1/n) + (1/m))]}, for a one

tailed upper prediction l imit with a probability of 0.01, sample size of n and number of runs whose average will be reported to EPA for compliance of m = 3. In addition to proposing standards for the nine pollutants discussed above, we are also proposing opacity standards for new and existing sources in the five subcategories as discussed below
. Test method measurement imprecision can also be a component of data variability
. At very low emissions levels as encountered in the data used to support this rule, the inherent imprecisio n in the pollutant measurement method has a large influence on the reliability of the data underlying the regulatory floor or beyond

- the

- floor emissions limit. Of particular concern are those data that33
are reported near or below a test method’s pollutant detection capability. In our guidance for reporting pollutant emissions used to support this rule, we specified the criteria for determining test

- specific method detection levels. Those criteria insure that there is about a 1 percent probability of an er ror in deciding that the pollutant measured at the method detection level is present , when in fact , it was absent. Such a probability is also called a false positive or the alpha, Type I, error. Another view of this probability is that one is 99 percent certain of the presence of the pollutant measured at the method detection level. Because of matrix effects, laboratory techniques, sample size and other factors, method detection levels normally vary from test to test.
We requested sources to identify (i .e., flag) data which were measured below the method detection level and to report those values as equal to the test

- specific method detection level. Variability of data due to measurement imprecision is inherently and reasonably addressed in calculating t he floor or beyond

- the

- floor emissions limit when the database represents multiple tests for which all of the data are measured s ignificantly above the method detection level
. That is less true when the database includes emissions34 occurring below method d etection capabilities and are reported as the method detection level values . The database is then truncated at the lower end of the measurement range (i.e., no values reported below the method detection level ) and we believe that a floor or beyond

- the

- flo or emissions limit based on a truncated database or otherwise including values at or near the method detection level may not adequately account for data measurement variability. We did not adjust the calculated floor for the data used for this proposal; a lthough, we believe that accounting for measurement imprecision should be an important consideration in calculating the floor or beyond

- the

- floor emissions limit. We request comment on approaches suitable to account for measurement variability in establis hing the floor or beyond

- the

- floor emissions limit when based on measurements at or near the method detection level. As noted above , the confidence level that a value measured at the detection level is greater than zero is about 99 percent. The expected m easureme nt imprecision for an emissions value occurring at or near the method detection level is about 40 to 50 percent. Pollutant measurement imprecision decreases to a consistent relative 10 to 15 percent for values measured at a level about three35

times the method detection level 4 . One approach that we believe could be applied to account for m easurement variability would require defining a method detection level that is representative of the data used in establishing the floor or beyond

- the

- floor emissi ons limit s and also minimize s the influence of an outlier test
- specific method detection level value. The first step in this approach would be to identify the highest test

- specific method detection level reported in a data set that is also equal to or les s than the floor or beyond

- the

- floor emissions limit calculated for the data set . This approach has the advantage of relying on the data collected to develop the floor or beyond

- the

- floor emissions limit while to some degree minimizing the effect of a tes t(s) with an inordinately high method detection level (e.g., the sample volume was too small, the laboratory technique was insufficiently sensitive or the procedure for determining the detection level was other than that specified). The second step would be to determine the value equal to three times the representative method detection level and compare it to the calculated floor or beyond

- the

- floor
4 American Society of Mechanical Engineers, Reference Method Accuracy and Precision (ReMAP): Phase 1, Precision of Manual Stack Emiss ion Measurements , CRTD Vol. 60, February 2001.36 emissions limit. If three times the representative method detection level w as less than the calculated floo r or beyond

- the

- floor emissions limit , we would conclude that measurement variability is adequately addressed and we would not adjust the calculated floor or beyond

- the

- floor emissions limit. If, on the other hand, the value equal to three times the repre sentative method detection level w as greater than the calculated floor or beyond

- the

- floor emissions limit , we would conclude that the calculated floor or beyond

- the

- floor emissions limit does not account entirely for measurement variability . W e then woul d use the value equal to three times the method detection level in place of the calculated floor or beyond

- the

- floor emissions limit to ensure that the floor or beyond

- the

floor emissions limit accounts for measurement variability
. We request comment on t his approach. As stated above, EPA’s solid waste definition rule proposes to define which non

- hazardous secondary materials that are used as fuels or ingredients in combustion units are solid wastes under Subtitle D of RCRA. In addition to the primary pro posed approach set forth in the Solid Waste Definition rule, the rule solicits comments on an alternative approach for determining which secondary materials are solid waste under Subtitle D of RCRA, when37 combusted. The MACT analysis discussed above consid ers only those commercial or industrial units that are CISWI units (i.e., that are units that combust “solid waste” as that term is defined by the Administrator under RCRA). Based on the MACT analysis described above, we calculated emission standards unde r both the primary proposed approach and the alternative approach identified in the proposed Solid Waste Definition rule. The only two subcategories for which the number of units changed under the alternative approach set forth in the solid waste definiti on rule were the energy recovery units and waste
- burning kilns subcategories. Because the number of units in these two subcategories is different under the alternative approach, the NSPS and EG did change. Based on the information available to EPA, the n umber of units in the other subcategories (i.e., incinerators, burn

- off ovens and small, remote incinerators) remained the same under both the proposed and alternative approaches, and the NSPS and
EG , therefore , did not change under the alternative
approac h. Table 1 of this preamble shows a comparison of the existing source MACT limits from the 2000 CISWI rule and those developed for the five subcategories in this action based on the proposed definition of solid waste. EPA did38 not establish subcategorie s in the 2000 CISWI rule and, for that reason, a direct comparison with the standards proposed today with the 2000 standards is only possible for the incinerators subcategory. As stated above, we are proposing to subcategorize CISWI units for reasons desc ribed in Section IV.B of this preamble. The five subcategories are:

• Incinerators , which are those units that are currently regulated by the 2000 CISWI rule, are units that are used to dispose of solid waste materials
.

• Energy recovery units that combust so lid waste materials as a percentage of their fuel mixture
. Energy recovery units include units that would be boilers or process heaters if they did not combust solid waste.

• Waste
- burning kilns means a kiln that is heated , in whole or in part, by combusti ng solid waste (as that term is defined by the Administrator under RCRA)
.

• Burn
- off ovens that are used to clean residual solid
waste materials off of various metal parts which are then reused.

• Small, remote incinerators that combust less than one ton of wa ste per day and are farther than 50 miles39 driving distance to the closest municipal solid waste (MSW) landfill. The proposed MACT floor emission limits for existing sources in each subcategory are shown in Table 1 of this preamble

For reasons described in the rationale section (IV) of the preamble, we are not proposing limits more stringent than the MACT floor. However, we are proposing to amend the requirements to qualify for reduced testing and, thereby , we are providing an incentive for owners or operators to optimize a unit’s carbon injection system and other operating pa rameters to further reduc e both mercury and dioxin/furan emissions. As stated above, the approach f or new sources was similar to that used with the existing sources, except the best performing unit’s data within a subcategory was used to calculate the MA CT floor emission limit instead of the average of the best performing 12 percent of units. In summary, the approach ranks individual CISWI units based on actual performance and establishes MACT floors based on the best performing source for each pollutant and subcategory, with an appropriate accounting for emissions variability. The new source MACT floor emission limits for each CISWI subcategory are shown in Table 2 of this preamble

RCRA and the RCRA proposal also identifies an “alternative approach” for consideration and comment. The concurrently proposed RCRA solid waste definition is integral in defining the CISWI source category. As stated above, the42 emission limits presented in Tables 1 and 2 of this preamble are based on subcategories established considering sources that are CISWI units under the “proposed approach” for defining when non

- hazardous secondary materials are solid waste , as discussed in a parallel proposal under RCRA. As stated above, the “alternative approach” identified for consideration and comment in the RCRA notice would result in a different population of units being covered by the standards for two of the CISWI

s ubcategories. We calculated MACT floors using emission rates for units that would be CISWI units under the “alternative approach” (i.e., for units in the energy recovery unit s and waste

- burning kiln s subcategories) and the MACT standard setting procedures previously described. Table 3 of this preamble reflects the potential MACT floor limits for the subcategories (i.e., energy recovery unit and waste

- burning kiln) that would be affected considering the “alternative approach” for defining solid waste. The MACT floor limits for the remaining three subcategories would not be impacted by the “alternative approach” and are reflected in Tables 1 and 2 of this preamble.

B. Proposed CAA Section 129(a)(5) Five

- Year Review Response Section 129(a)(5) of the CAA requires EPA to conduct a review of the standards at five

- year intervals and, in accordance with CAA Sections 129 and 111, revise the standards. We do not interpret CAA Section 129(a)(5), together with CAA Section 111, as requiring EPA to recalculate MACT floors in connection with this periodic44
review. See, e.g. , 71 FR 27324, 27327

- 28 (May 10, 2006) “Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sourc es and Emission Guidelines for Existing Sources: Large Municipal Waste Combustors; Final Rule”; see also, NRDC and LEAN v.
EPA , 529 F.3d 1077, 1083

- 84 (D.C. Cir. 2008)(upholding EPA’s interpretation that the periodic review requirement in CAA Section 112(d )(6) does not impose an obligation to recalculate MACT floors). Rather, in conducting such periodic reviews, EPA attempts to assess the performance of and variability associated with control measures affecting emissions performance at sources in the subj ect source category (including the installed emissions control equipment), along with recent developments in practices, processes and control technologies, and determines whether it is appropriate to revise the standards. This is the same general approach taken by EPA in periodically reviewing CAA Section 111 standards, as CAA Section 111 contains a similar review and revise provision. Specifically, CAA Section 111(b)(1)(B) requires EPA, except in specified circumstances, to review NSPS promulgated under CAA Section 111 every eight years and to revise the standards if EPA determines that it is “appropriate” to do so, 42 U.S.C. 7411(b)(1)(B). In light of the explicit reference in CAA45
Section 129(a)(5) to Section 111, which contains direct guidance on how t o review and revise standards previously promulgated, EPA reasonably interprets CAA Section 129(a)(5) to provide that EPA must similarly review and, if appropriate, revise CAA Section 129 standards. Section 129 provides guidance on the criteria to be used in determining whether it is appropriate to revise a CAA Section 129 standard. Section 129(a)(3) states that standards under CAA Sections 111 and 129 “shall be based on methods and technologies for removal or destruction of pollutants before, during and a fter combustion.” It can be reasonably inferred from the reference to “technologies” that EPA is to consider advances in technology, both as to their effectiveness and their costs, as well as the availability of new technologies, in determining whether it is “appropriate” to revise a CAA Section 129 standard. This inference is further supported by the fact that the standards under review are based, in part, on an assessment of the performance of control technologies currently being used by sources in a ca tegory or subcategory. This approach is also consistent with the approach used in establishing and updating NSPS under CAA Section 111. Consistent with the definition of “standard of performance” in CAA Section 111(a)(1), standards of46
performance promul gated under CAA Section 111 are based on “the best system of emission reductions” which generally equates to some type of control technology. Where EPA determines that it is “appropriate” to revise CAA Section 111 standards, CAA Section 111(b)(1)(B) direc ts that this be done “following the procedure required by this subsection for promulgation of such standards.” In updating CAA Section 111 standards in accordance with CAA Section 111(b)(1)(B), EPA has consistently taken the approach of evaluating advance s in existing control technologies, both as to performance and cost, as well as the availability of new technologies and then, on the basis of this evaluation, determined whether it is appropriate to revise the standard. See, for example, 71 FR 9866 (Feb. 27, 2006) (updating the boilers NSPS) and 71 FR 38482 (July 6, 2006) (updating the stationary combustion turbines NSPS). In these reviews, EPA takes into account, among other things, the currently installed equipment and its performance and operational v ariability. As appropriate, we also consider new technologies and control measures that have been demonstrated to reliably control emissions from the source category. The approach is similar to the one that Congress spelled out in CAA Section 112(d)(6), w hich is also47
entitled “Review and revision.” Section 112(d)(6) directs EPA to every eight years “review, and revise as necessary (taking into account developments in practices, processes and control technologies)” emission standards promulgated pursuant t o CAA Section 112. There are a number of significant similarities between what is required under CAA Section 129, which addresses emissions of hazardous air pollutants (HAP) and other pollutants from solid waste incineration units, and CAA Section 112, wh ich addresses HAP emissions generally. For example, under both CAA Section 112(d)(3) and CAA Section 129(a)(2) initial standards applicable to existing sources “shall not be less stringent than the average emissions limitation achieved by the best perform ing 12 percent of units in the category.” Also, as stated above, both sections require that standards be reviewed at specified intervals of time. Finally, both sections contain a provision addressing “residual risk” (CAA Sections 112(f) and 129(h)(3)). As a result, EPA believes that CAA Section 112(d)(6) is relevant in ascertaining Congress’ intent regarding how EPA is to proceed in implementing CAA Section 129(a)(5). Like its counterpart CAA Section 112(d)(6), Section 129(a)(5) does not state that EPA m ust conduct a MACT floor analysis every five years when reviewing standards48 promulgated under CAA Sections 129(a)(2) and 111. Had Congress intended EPA to conduct a new floor analysis every five years, it would have said so expressly by directly incorpora ting such requirements into CAA Section 129(a)(5), for example , by referring directly to CAA Section 129(a)(2), rather than just to “this section” and CAA Section 111. It did not do so, however, and, in fact, CAA Section 129 encompasses more than just MAC T standards under CAA Section 129(a)(2)

– it also includes risk

- based standards under CAA Section 129(h)(3), which are not determined by an additional MACT analysis. Reading CAA Section 129(a)(5) to require recalculation of the MACT floor would be both in consistent with Congress’ express direction that EPA should revise CAA Section 129 standards in accordance with CAA Section 111, which plainly provides that such revision should occur only if we determine that it is “appropriate” to do so. It would also r esult in effectively reading the reference to CAA Section 111 out of the CAA, a circumstance that Congress could not have intended. Required recalculation of floors would completely eviscerate EPA’s ability to base revisions to CAA Section 129 standards o n a determination that it is “appropriate” to revise such standards, as EPA’s only discretion would be in deciding whether to establish a49 standard that is more stringent than the recalculated floor. EPA believes that depriving the A gency of any meaningful discretion in this manner is at odds with what Congress intended. Further, required recalculation of floors would have the inexorable effect of driving existing sources to the level of performance exhibited by new sources on a five

year cycle, a result th at is unprecedented and that should not be presumed to have been intended by Congress in the absence of a clear statement to that effect. There is no such clear statement. It is reasonable to assume that if the floor must be recalculated on a five

- year c ycle, some, if not most or all, of the sources that form the basis for the floor calculation, will be sources that were previously subject to standards applicable to new sources. As a result, over time, existing sources which had not made any changes in t heir operations , would eventually be subject to essentially the same level of regulation as new sources. Such a result would be unprecedented, particularly in the context of a standard that is established under both CAA Sections 129 and 111. Under CAA Se ction 111, an existing source only becomes a new source and thus subject to a new source standard when it is either modified (CAA Section 111(a)(2)) or reconstructed (40 CFR 60.15). Given this50 context, it is not reasonable to assume that Congress intended for existing sources subject to CAA Section 129 standards to be treated as new sources over time where their circumstances have not changed. We believe that a reasonable interpretation of CAA Section 129(a)(5) is that Congress preserved EPA’s discretion i n reviewing CAA Section 129 standards to revise them when the EPA determines it is “appropriate” to do so and that the Court’s recent ruling regarding CAA Section 112(d)(6) supports this view (see NRDC and LEAN v. EPA , 529 F.3d 1077, 1084 (D.C. Cir. 2008). In that case, petitioners had “argued that EPA was obliged to completely recalculate the maximum achievable control technology

– in other words, to start from scratch.” NRDC and LEAN , 529 F.3d at 1084. The Court held: “We do not think the words ‘revie w, and revise as necessary’ can be construed reasonably as imposing any such obligation.” The Court’s ruling in NRDC and LEAN is consistent with our interpretation of CAA Section 129(a)(5) as providing a broad range of discretion in terms of whether to re vise MACT standards adopted under CAA Sections 129(a)(2) and 111.
C. EPA’s Approach in Conducting the Five

- Year Review51 This action responds to the vacatur and remand of the CISWI Definition Rule and the voluntary remand of the 2000 CISWI NSPS and EG, an d, in this response, EPA is proposing new standards based on a MACT methodology that is consistent with the CAA and District of Columbia Circuit Court precedent. The MACT levels proposed herein reflect floor levels determined by actual current emissions d ata from CISWI units, and, therefore, reflect the current performance of the best performing unit or units that will be subject to the CISWI standards. Consequently, we believe that our obligation to conduct a five

- year review based on implementation of t he 2000 CISWI rule will also be fulfilled upon finalization of the CISWI standards. Our conclusion is supported by the fact that the revised MACT standards included in this proposed remand response are based on the available performance data for the curre ntly operating CISWI units, including those units that are subject to the 2000 CISWI rule and those units that will be subject to the CISWI standards for the first time based on the proposed Solid Waste Definition rule under RCRA. In establishing MACT flo ors based on currently available emissions information, we address the technology review’s goals of assessing the performance efficiency of the installed equipment and ensuring that the emission limits52 reflect the performance of the technologies required b y the MACT standards. In addition, in establishing the proposed standards, we considered whether new technologies and processes and improvements in practices have been demonstrated at sources subject to the 2000 CISWI rule and at sources that will be subj ect to these proposed standards for the first time based on the proposed definition of solid waste. Accordingly, the remand response in this proposed action fulfills EPA’s obligations regarding the five

- year review of the CISWI standards.
D. Other Prop osed Amendments This proposed action makes additional changes to the 2000 CISWI rule, including changes to the units excluded from regulation under the 2000 CISWI rule ; the removal of the exemption for periods of startup, shutdown and malfunction ; changes to the testing, monitoring and reporting requirements ; and changes to the electronic data submittal requirements . A summary of these changes follows. 1. Definitions and Units Excluded from Regulation We are revising the definition of CISWI unit to refle ct the C ourt decision that all units burning solid waste as defined under RCRA are to be covered by regulation under CAA S ection 129. We are also adding a definition of53 “solid waste incineration unit” and removing the definition of “commercial and industr ial waste”. We also included for the first time definitions of the five subcategories of CISWI units that will be regulated under the proposed rules. The 2000 CISWI rule excluded from regulation combustion units at commercial or industrial facilities that recovered energy for a useful purpose, and also excluded multiple other types of units that may combust solid waste including: pathological waste incinerators; agricultural waste incinerators; incinerators regulated by the CAA Section 129 municipal waste combustor (MWC) or HMIWI standards; incinerators with a capacity less than 35 tons per day that combust more than 30 percent MSW; qualifying small power producers; qualifying cogeneration units; materials recovery units; air curtain incinerators combustin g “clean wood” waste; cyclonic barrel burners; rack, part and drum reclamation units; cement kilns; sewage sludge incinerators (SSI); chemical recovery units; and laboratory analysis units. Qualifying small power producers, qualifying cogeneration units and metals recovery units are expressly exempt from coverage pursuant to CAA exclusions from the definition of “solid waste incineration unit” set forth in54 Section 129(g)(1). Units that are required to have a permit under section 3005 or the Solid Waste Disposal Act (i.e., hazardous waste combustion units) are also exempt from Section 129 rules per CAA Section 129(g)(1). Air curtain incinerators at commercial or industrial facilities combusting “clean wood” waste are also excluded from the definition of solid waste incineration unit set forth in CAA Section 129(g)(1), but that section provides that such units must comply with opacity limits. Solid waste i ncineration units that are included within the scope of other CAA Section 129 categorie s includ e MWC s, pathological waste incinerators ( EPA intends to regulate these units under other solid waste incineration (OSWI) standards ) , SSI (EPA currently intends to issue a regulation setting emission standards for these units by December 16, 2010) , and HMIWI, an d these solid waste incineration units will remain exempt from the CISWI standards. All other solid waste incineration units at commercial and industrial facilities would be subject to the proposed CISWI standards. Accordingly, the proposed revisions to the CISWI rules would remove the exemptions for: agricultural waste incinerators; cyclonic barrel burners; cement kilns; rack, part and drum reclamation units (i.e. burn

- off ovens); chemical recovery units; and55 laboratory analysis units. As stated above, we are proposing to create subcategories for waste
- burning kilns , energy recovery units and burn

- off ovens and subject them to this proposed rule in light of the CISWI Definitions Rule vacatur. We note that other Section 129 standards may contain an exemp tion for cement kilns. Those exemptions do
not excuse waste burning kilns from compliance with these proposed standards. As those other Section 129 rules are amended, we will clarify that cement kilns that meet the definition of waste

- burning kiln and ot her CISWI units that may be expressly exempt from those standards are subject to CISWI standards if they combust solid waste
. CISWI units burning agricultural materials that meet the definition of solid waste would be part of the appropriate standards un der this proposed rule. If the unit recovers energy, it would be subject to the CISWI energy recovery unit subcategory, and our inventory includes one such unit. If the unit does not recover energy, it would be included in either the incinerator s subcate gory or the small, remote incinerators subcategory. We are not aware of any circumstances in which waste
burning kilns or burn off ovens would combust agricultural materials. Cyclonic burn barrels , which may be used to combust agricultural materials, wou ld be included in either56

the incinerator s subcategory or the small remote incinerator s subcategory. 2. Performance Testing and Monitoring Amendments The proposed amendments would require all CISWI units to demonstrate initial compliance with the revis ed emission limits. The proposed amendments would require, for existing CISWI units, annual inspections of scrubbers, fabric filters and other air pollution control devices that are used to meet the emission limits. In addition, a Method 22 of appendix A

- 7 visible emissions test of the ash handling operations is required to be conducted during the annual compliance test for all subcategories except waste

burning kilns, which do not have ash handling systems. Furthermore, for any existing CISWI unit that operates a fabric filter air pollution control device, we are proposing that a bag leak detection system be installed to monitor the device. The proposed amendments continue to require parametric monitoring of all other add

- on air pollution control device s, such as wet scrubbers and activated carbon injection. CISWI units that install SNCR technology to reduce NO x emissions would be required to monitor the reagent (e.g., ammonia or urea) injection rate and secondary chamber temperature (if applicable to t he CISWI unit).57 The proposed amendments would also require subcategory

- specific monitoring requirements in addition to the aforementioned inspection, bag leak detection and parametric monitoring requirements applicable to all CISWI units. Existing incine rators, burn

- off ovens and small, remote incinerators would have annual emissions testing for opacity, HCl and PM. Existing kilns would monitor Hg emissions using a Hg continuous emissions monitoring systems (CEMS) and would perform annual testing for CO,
NO x , SO 2 , PM, HCl and opacity. Existing energy recovery units would monitor CO using a CO CEMS. We seek comment on the extent to which existing units in subcategories other than energy recovery should be required to use CO CEMS. Annual performance test ing for CO, NO x , SO 2 , PM, HCl, dioxins/furans and opacity is also required for these units. The proposed amendments provide reduced annual testing requirements for PM, HCl and opacity when testing results are shown to be well below the limits
. If the

ene rgy recovery unit has a design capacity less than 250 MMBtu/hr and is not equipped with a wet scrubber control device, then a continuous opacity monitor would be required or, as an alternative, a PM CEMS could be employed (see below). If the energy recove ry unit has a design capacity greater than 250 MMBtu/hr, the proposed requirements would58 require monitoring of PM emissions using a PM CEMS. We seek comment on the extent to which subcategories other than energy recovery units should be required to use PM
CEMS. For new CISWI units, the proposed amendments would require the same monitoring requirements proposed for existing units, but would also require CO CEMS for all subcategories. For all subcategories of existing CISWI units, use of CO CEMS would be an approved alternative and specific language with requirements for CO CEMS is included in the proposed amendments. For new and existing CISWI units, use of PM, NO x , SO 2 , HCl, multi

- metals and Hg CEMS and integrated sorbent trap Hg monitoring and dioxin mon itoring (continuous sampling with periodic sample analysis) also would be approved alternatives and specific language for those alternatives is included in the proposed amendments. 3. Electronic Data Submittal The EPA must have performance test data to conduct effective reviews of CAA Section 112 and 129 standards, as well as for many other purposes including compliance determinations, emissions factor development and annual emissions rate determinations. In conducting these required reviews, we have f ound it ineffective and time59 consuming not only for us but also for regulatory agencies and source owners and operators to locate, collect and submit emissions test data because of varied locations for data storage and varied data storage methods. One imp rovement that has occurred in recent years is the availability of stack test reports in electronic format as a replacement for cumbersome paper copies. In this action, we are taking a step to improve data accessibility. Owners and operators of CISWI unit s will be required to submit to an EPA electronic database an electronic copy of reports of certain performance tests required under this rule. Data entry will be through an electronic emissions test report structure called the Electronic Reporting Tool ( ERT) that will be used by the staff as part of the emissions testing project. The ERT was developed with input from stack testing companies who generally collect and compile performance test data electronically and offices within state and local agencies which perform field test assessments. The ERT is currently available, and access to direct data submittal to EPA’s electronic emissions database (WebFIRE) will become available by December 31, 2011. The requirement to submit source test data electronicall y to EPA will not require any additional60 performance testing and will apply to those performance tests conducted using test methods that are supported by ERT. The ERT contains a specific electronic data entry form for most of the commonly used EPA referen ce methods. The website listed below contains a listing of the pollutants and test methods supported by ERT. In addition, when a facility submits performance test data to WebFIRE, there will be no additional requirements for emissions test data compilati on. Moreover, we believe industry will benefit from development of improved emissions factors, fewer follow

- up information requests and better regulation development as discussed below. The information to be reported is already required for the existing test methods and is necessary to evaluate the conformance to the test method. One major advantage of submitting source test data through the ERT is that it provides a standardized method to compile and store much of the documentation required to be report ed by this rule while clearly stating what testing information we require. Another important benefit of submitting these data to EPA at the time the source test is conducted is that it will substantially reduce the effort involved in data collection activ ities in the future. Specifically, because EPA would already have data for this61 source category as a result of the electronic reporting provisions described here , there would likely be fewer or less substantial data collection requests (e.g., CAA Section 114 letters) in the future for this source category . This results in a reduced burden on both affected facilities (in terms of reduced manpower to respond to data collection requests) and EPA (in terms of preparing and distributing data collection request s). State/local/ tribal agencies may also benefit in that their review may be more streamlined and accurate as the
state s will not have to re

- enter the data to assess the calculations and verify the data entry. Finally, another benefit of submitting thes e data to WebFIRE electronically is that these data will improve greatly the overall quality of the existing and new emissions factors by supplementing the pool of emissions test data upon which the emissions factor is based and by ensuring that data are m ore representative of current industry operational procedures. A common complaint we hear from industry and regulators is that emissions factors are outdated or not representative of a particular source category. Receiving and incorporating data for most performance tests will ensure that emissions factors, when updated, represent accurately the most current operational practices. In summary,62 receiving test data already collected for other purposes and using them in the emissions factors development prog ram will save industry, state /local/ tribal agencies and EPA time and money and work to improve the quality of emissions inventories and related regulatory decisions. As mentioned earlier, the electronic database that will be used is EPA’s WebFIRE, which is a w ebsite accessible through EPA’s T TN. The WebFIRE w ebsite was constructed to store emissions test data for use in developing emissions factors. A description of the WebFIRE database can be found at http://cfpub.epa.gov/oarweb/index.cfm?action=fire.mai n. The ERT will be able to transmit the electronic report through EPA’s Central Data Exchange (CDX) network for storage in the WebFIRE database. Although ERT is not the only electronic interface that can be used to submit source test data to the CDX for e ntry into WebFIRE, it makes submittal of data very straightforward and easy. A description of the ERT can be found at http://www.epa.gov/ttn/chief/ert/ert_tool.html
. 4. Changes to Startup, S hutdown and Malfunction Provisions The 2000 CISWI standards did not apply during periods of startup, shutdown and malfunction. The proposed rule would revise the 2000 CISWI rule such that the standards63

would apply at all times, including during startup, shutdown or malfunction events. As further explained in Section IV.E.4 of this preamble, the revision is the result of a court decision that invalidated certain regulations related to startup, shutdown and malfunction in the General Provisions of 40 CFR p art 63. The full rationale for these decisions is presented in Section IV.E. 3 of this preamble.
E. Proposed State Plan Implementation Schedule for Existing CISWI Under the proposed amendments to the EG and consistent with CAA Secti on 129, revised state plans containing the revised existing source emission limits and other requirements in the proposed amendments would be due within

one year after promulgation of the amendments. That is,
state s would have to submit revised plans to E PA one year after the date on which EPA promulgates revised standards
. The proposed amendments to the EG would then allow existing CISWI to demonstrate compliance with the amended standards as expeditiously as practicable after approval of

a state plan, b ut no later than three years from the date of approval of a state plan or five years after promulgation of the revised standards, whichever is earlier. Consistent with CAA Section 129, EPA expects
state s to require compliance as expeditiously as64 practicab le. However, because we believe that many CISWI units will find it necessary to retrofit existing emission control equipment and/or install additional emission control equipment in order to meet the proposed revised limits, EPA anticipates that state s may choose to provide the three year compliance period allowed by CAA Section 129(f)(2). In revising the standards in a state plan, a state would have two options. First, it could include both the 2000 CISWI standards and the new standards in its revised
state plan, which would allow a phased approach in applying the new limits. That is, the state plan would make it clear that the standards in the 2000 CISWI rule remain in force for units in the incinerators subcategory and apply until the date the revise d existing source standards are effective (as defined in the state plan). 5 States whose existing CISWI units in the incinerators subcategory do not

ne ed to improve their performance to meet the revised standards may want to consider a second approach wher e the
state would replace the 2000 CISWI rule standards with the standards in the final rule , follow the procedures in 40

5 All sources currently subject to the 2000 CISWI EG or NSPS will become existing sources in the incinerators subcategory once the final revised CISWI standards are in place. See section III.F below.65
CFR part 60, subpart B , and submit a revised state plan to EPA for approval. If the revised state plan contains only the revised stan dards (i.e., the 2000 CISWI rule standards are not retained), then the revised standards must become effective immediately for those units in the incinerators subcategory that are subject to the 2000 CISWI rule since the 2000 CISWI rule standards would be removed from the
state plan. EPA will revise the existing federal plan to incorporate any changes to existing source emission limits and other requirements that EPA ultimately promulgates. The federal plan applies to CISWI units in any state without an ap proved state plan. The proposed amendments to the EG would allow existing CISWI units subject to the federal plan up to five years after promulgation of the revised standards to demonstrate compliance with the amended standards, as required by CAA Section 129(b)(3).
F. Proposed Changes to the Applicability Date of the 2000 NSPS and EG
CISWI units in the incinerators subcategory would be treated differently under the amended standards, as proposed, than they were under the 2000 CISWI rule in terms of whether they are “existing” or “new” sources. Consistent with the CAA Section 129 definition of “new”66 sources, there would be new dates defining what units are “new” sources. Units in the incinerators subcategory that

are currently subj ect to the NSPS would become “existing” sources under the proposed amended standards and would be required to meet the revised EG for the incinerators subcategory by the applicable compliance date for the revised guidelines. However, those units would con tinue to be NSPS units subject to the 2000 CISWI rule until they become “existing” sources under the amended standards. CISWI units in the five sub categories that commence construction after the date of this proposal, or for which a modification is commen ced on or after the date six months after promulgation of the amended standards, would be “new” units subject to more stringent NSPS emission limits. Units for which construction or modification is commenced prior to those dates would be existing units su bject to the proposed EG , except that units in the incinerators subcategory would remain subject to the 2000 CISWI rule until the compliance date of the proposed CISWI EG as discussed above
. CISWI solid waste incineration units in the subcategories other than the incinerators subcategory will not in any case be subject to the standards in the 2000 CISWI rule
.67 Thus, under these proposed amendments, units in the incinerators subcategory that commenced construction after November 30, 1999, and on or before [INSERT DATE OF
PUBLICATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER ], or that are reconstructed or modified prior to the date six months after promulgation of any revised final standards, would be subject to the 2000 CISWI NSPS until the applicable compliance date for th e revised EG, at which time those units would become “existing” sources. Similarly, units in the incinerators subcategory subject to the EG under the 2000 CISWI rule would need to meet the revised EG by the applicable compliance date for the revised guide lines. CISWI units that commence construction after [INSERT DATE
OF PUBLICATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER ] or that are reconstructed or modified six months or more after the date of promulgation of any revised standards would have to meet the revised NSPS e mission limits being added to the subpart CCCC NSPS within six months after the promulgation date of the amendments or upon startup, whichever is later. IV. Rationale
A. Rationale for the Proposed Response to the Remand and the Proposed CAA Section 129(a )(5) Five

- Year Review Response68

1
. Rationale for the Proposed Response to the Remand pursuant to CAA Section 129(a)(2) The proposed revised standards represent EPA’s position concerning what is necessary to satisfy our initial duties under CAA Section 129( a)(2) to have set MACT limits for CISWI and we are establishing the MACT standards in response to the voluntary remand that EPA requested in 2001 and the Court’s remand of the CISWI Definitions Rule. As explained further below, we are subcategorizing CISW I units for the first time in light of the new population of units subject to the rule. Specifically, we are proposing a total of five subcategories. Below , we propose MACT standards for each subcategory of new and existing CISWI units.
S ee sections II. A. and III.B above for a detailed discussion of EPA’s authority to establish CAA Section 129(a)(2) standards for CISWI units. 2
. Proposed CAA Section 129(a)(5) Five

- Year Review Response As stated above, EPA interprets CAA Section 129(a)(5) to provide EPA with broad discretion to revise MACT standards for incinerators. As we explained, we do not interpret CAA Section 129(a)(5) , as requiring that EPA in each round of review , recalculate MACT floors, and we69 regard the Court’s recent ruling in NRDC and LEAN v. EPA , in which the Court held that the similar review requirement in CAA Section 112(d)(6) does not require a MACT floor recalculation, as supporting our view. This action does not reflect an independent MACT floor reassessment performed under CAA Secti on 129(a)(5). However, since these proposed standards do reflect the emissions levels currently achieved in practice by the best performing CISWI units and we have no other information that would cause us to reach different conclusions were a CAA Section 129(a)(5) review to be conducted in isolation, we believe that this rulemaking responding to the Court’s remand will necessarily discharge our duty under CAA Section 129(a)(5) to review and revise the current standards. In performing future five

- year revie ws of the CISWI standards, we do not intend to recalculate new MACT floors, but will instead propose to revise the emission limits consistent with our interpretation as presented above in section III.B. We believe this approach reflects the most reasonabl e interpretation of the review requirement of CAA Section 129(a)(5), and is consistent with how we have interpreted the similar review requirement of CAA Section 112(d)(6), regarding MACT standards promulgated under CAA Section 112.70 This action’s proposed remand response fulfills our obligations regarding the five

- year review of the CISWI standards because the revised MACT floor determinations and emission limits associated with the remand response are based on performance data for currently operating CISWI units and accounts for all non

- technology factors that affect CISWI unit performance. The proposed remand response also addresses whether new technologies and processes and improvements in practices have been demonstrated at CISWI units subject to the 20 00 CISWI rule. Furthermore, this action also proposes monitoring requirements for control devices that may be used to comply with the proposed standards by units in the subcategories that were not subject to the 2000 CISWI rule , but would be subject to th ese proposed standards. These controls include activated carbon injection, selective non

- catalytic reduction and electrostatic precipitators. Our information indicates that these technologies are currently being used by some of the units that would be su bject to this proposal, or have been applied to units in similar source categories, such as municipal waste combustors. We also reviewed CEMS requirements being proposed in standards for the non

- waste burning counterparts to the waste
- burning kiln and ene rgy recovery unit subcategories , and believe71 that these can be applied to similar units that would be regulated under the proposed CISWI standards.
B. Rationale for Proposed Subcategories As discussed earlier in section III.A.2. of this preamble , the p opulation of existing units that would be subject to this proposed regulation has been expanded from the 2000 CISWI rule . The combustion survey I nformation Collection Request (I CR ) responses show that our population of 176 CISWI units now includes combust ion units with various fundamental differences in relation to units that were regulated as CISWI in the 2000 CISWI rule
. We are proposing to subcategorize CISWI units bas ed on technical and other differences in the processes , such as combustor design, dra ft type and availability of utilities. T he se proposed subcategories for CISWI have been established based on fundamental differences in the types and sizes of units that will be subject to the standards. Incinerators : Incinerators , which are the units currently regulated by the 2000 CISWI rule, are used to dispose of solid waste materials , and emissions are a function of the types of materials burned. Incinerators are designed without integral heat recovery (but may include waste heat recovery). While there are different designs, they all serve the same purpose : reduction in the volume of solid72

waste materials. Incinerators can be operated on a batch or continuous basis. The same types of add

- on controls, including fabric filters, wet scrubbers, SNCR and activated carbon injection, can be applied to most incinerators. Although the composition of the materials combusted is highly variable and is a key factor in the profile of emissions, we determined it was not appropriate to further subcategorize inc inerators because the sources in this category are sufficiently similar such that the incinerators can achieve the same level of performance for the nine regulated pollutants. Energy
- recovery units : Energy recovery units combust solid waste materials as a percentage of their fuel mixture and are designed to recover thermal energy in the form of steam or hot water. Energy recovery units include units that would be considered boilers and process heaters if they did not combust solid waste. Energy recovery units are generally larger than incinerators. They typically fire a mixture of solid waste and other fuels, whereas incinerators burn predominantly solid waste , although sometimes a small amount of supplemental fuel is fired in an incinerator to maintain combustion temperature. Energy recovery units are also different from incinerators in
terms of how the fuel is fed into the combustion chamber ,73

the combustion chamber design (which typically includes integral heat recovery) and other operational characte ristics. These differences can result in emission profiles for energy recovery units that are different from incinerators but similar to boilers. Combustion of waste materials in these units impacts the emission profile to some degree, although emissions from these units often resemble emissions from boilers that combust traditional fuels
. Waste
- burning kilns : Waste
- burning kilns are fundamentally different than any other unit being regulated under CISWI. Kilns of all types are physically larger than an incinerator with a comparable heat input. Kiln design and operation are also different. For example, the design is typically a rotating cylindrical kiln with a fuel burner on one end and raw materials being fed in the other (cold) end. Fuel ( particul arly solids such as tires) may also in some cases be fed at a mid

- kiln point. S ome kilns also have a large preheater tower with a precalciner that is an additional firing point for both fossil and waste fuels. The temp e rature profile of kiln s is critical in order to produce a saleable product. A nother key distinction is that for cement kilns, the source of most of the pollutants is typically the raw materials, not the fuels, and74

emissions from the raw materials and the solid wastes and fuels are comingle d and emitted together. As a result,
waste
- burning kilns have a very different emissions profile than other CISWI subcategories and that difference can influence the design of applicable controls.
Burn
- off ovens : These units typically are very small (< 1 MMBtu/hr), batch

- operated, combustion units that are used to clean residual materials off of various metal parts, which are then reused. The amount of waste combusted in these units is generally small (pounds per year in some cases) and the configuratio n of the stacks that serve these units precludes the use of some EPA test methods for measuring emissions and could affect the ability to install certain control devices
. Small, remote, incinerators : These are batch

- operated units that combust less than o ne ton of waste per day and

are farther than 50 miles driving distance to the closest MSW landfill. To the extent that these are located in Alaska, a major difference in these types of units is the in ability to operate a wet scrubber in the northern clima tes and the lack of availability of wastewater handling and treatment utilities
. We believe this would impact their ability to meet emission limits for pollutants controlled by wet scrubbers. In addition, because of the75

remote location , these units do no t have lower

- cost alternative waste disposal options (i.e., landfills) nearby and emissions associated with transporting the solid waste could be significant
. C. Rationale for MACT Floor Emission Limits EPA must consider available emissions test data to determine the MACT floor. We based the floor calculations
on available emissions data. 6 We did receive some additional data earlier this year, but as noted above, due to the court

- ordered deadline, we did not have sufficient time to review and evaluate that data. We intend to review and evaluate the data submitted earlier this year and any data received during the comment period, and we intend to include those data in our final analysis, as appropriate. For existing sources, w e calculated the MACT floor for each subcategory of sources by ranking the emission test results from units within the subcategory from lowest emissions to highest emissions (for each pollutant) and then taking the numerical average of the test results from the best performing (lowe st emitting) 12 percent of sources. That is, the overall 3

- run test average values for each existing unit for each pollutant were compiled and

6 In c alculating the floors for this proposed rule, we included units combusting manure.76 ranked from lowest to highest to identify the best performing 12 percent of sources within the subcategory for

e ach pollutant (i.e., on a pollutant

- by

- pollutant basis)
. 7 Because the number of units in different subcategories may be different, the number of units that represent the best performing 12 percent of different subcategories may be different. Also, mathem atically, the number of units that represent the best performing 12 percent of the units in a subcategory will not always be an integer. To ensure that each MACT standard is based on at least 12 percent of the units in a subcategory, EPA has determined th at it is appropriate to always round up to the nearest integer when 12 percent of a given subcategory is not an integer. For example, if 12 percent of a subcategory is 4.1, the standards will be based on the best performing five units even though rounding conventions would normally lead to rounding down to four units. Another example from this proposal is in the incinerator subcategory , which includes 28 units . Twelve percent of 28 is 3.36 units and we established the standards based on the best performi ng four units.
7 The pollutant

- by

- pollutant approach is the same approach used for other CAA Section 129 standards and the rationale for this approach can be found in the preamble for the final HMIWI NSPS and EG (74 FR 51368, 51380 (October 6, 2009)).77 Once the best 12 percent of units are identified for each source category and pollutant , the individual test run data for these units were compiled and a statistical analysis was conducted to calculate the average and account for variabili ty and , thereby, determine the MACT floor emission limit
. The first step in the statistical analysis include s a determination of whether the data used for each MACT floor calculation were normally or log

- normally distributed, followed by calculation of th e average and
99 th percent upper limit (UL)
. 8 If the data were normally distributed (e.g., similar to a typical bell curve), then the equation to calculate UL was applied to the data. If the data were not normally distributed (for example if the data wer e asymmetric or skewed to the right or left), then the type of distribution (e. g. , log

- normal) was determined and a data transformation was performed to normalize the data prior to computing the UL. When the data distribution was found to be log

- normal, t he data were transformed by taking the natural log of the data prior to calculating the UL value. Two statistical measures, skewness and kurtosis ,
8 The procedure is the same as used for the HMIWI rule (74 FR 51367, October 6, 2009). While the HMIWI preamble referred to this measure as the upper confidence limit (UCL), it used the same equation. In this proposal, we refer to the measure as the UL, which is a more appropriate statistical terminology for this calculation.78 were examined to determine if the data were normally or log

- normally distributed. Additional discussion of the distribution analysis and the data distributions used to develop each MACT floor limit are documented in the memorandum “MACT Floor Analysis for the Industrial and Commercial Solid Waste Incinerators Source Category” in the docket.
The 99 th percent UL represents a value that 99 percent of the data in the MACT floor data population would fall below, and therefore , accounts for the run

- to
- run and test

to
- test variability observed in the MACT floor data set. It was calculated by the following equation tha t is appropriate for small data sets:

s * n) t(0.99, x UL + =
W here :

x = average of the data
. t (0.99,n) = t
- statistic
.
n = number of data points in the population
.
s = standard deviation
. A detailed discussion of the MACT floor methodology is presente d in the memorandum “MACT Floor Analysis for the Industrial and Commercial Solid Waste Incinerators Source Category” in the docket. The calculated existing source UL values (which are based on the emissions data from the best79 performing 12 percent of sour ces and account for variability) were selected as the proposed MACT floor emission limits for the nine regulated pollutants in each subcategory. In establishing the limits, the UL values

were rounded up to two significant figures . For example, a value of 1.42 would be rounded to 1.5 (as has been done for other CAA Section 1 29 rules) because a limit of 1.4 would be lower than the calculated MACT floor value. The UL computation assumes that the data available represents the entire population of data from the best performing CISWI units used to establish the proposed standards . This statistical approach and use of the UL is consistent with the methodology used in the October 6, 2009 , HMIWI rule (74 FR 5136 8 )
. The summar y results of the UL analysis and th e MACT floor emission limits for existing units are presented in Tables 4 through 6 of this preamble for each subcategory.

a – Dioxin/furan TEQ UL values often were greater than the total mass basis UL values, which would result in a TEQ limit greater than the total mass basis. Therefore, paired total mass basis/TEQ data wer e analyzed and found that TEQ is 0. 078 times the amount of the total mass basis. The dioxin/furan TEQ limits were therefore calculated based on 0. 078 times the total mass basis limit. b

– Dioxin/furan TEQ data were not reported for this subcategory.85

Usin g the UL approach described above for the dioxins/furans TEQ data sometimes resulted in an UL that was greater than that calculated for the associated total mass basis dioxins/furans for the subcategory , due to comparatively large standard deviations of th e TEQ data versus those of the total mass basis data set
. Dioxins/furans TEQ values should correlate to the total mass basis value at a ratio of less than 1 (a 1

- to
- 1 ratio is the theoretical maximum and would indicate that all the dioxins/furans emitted would consist of the 2,3,7,8

- tetrachlorodibenzodioxin (TCDD) congener). We reviewed available data to see what the ratio was for test reports where the total mass and TEQ data were simultaneously reported
. Because it is impossible for the same
concentrat ion data to be higher on a TEQ basis than a total mass basis, TEQ to total mass basis ratios greater than 1 were omitted. R atios greater than 0.5 were also screened
out of the paired data because EPA is unaware of any combustion units ever having a TEQ to total mass basis ratio as high as 0.5. After screening the paired data, the resulting ratio s were on average 0.078 times that of the total mass basis. Therefore, to be consistent in establishing the dioxins/furans TEQ limits and to prevent86 any instances where the TEQ limit exceeds the associated total mass basis limit, we selected MACT floor limits based on the total mass basis limit multiplied by 0. 078 . EPA requests comment on this approach for establishing the dioxins/furans TEQ basis limits.
New sour ce MACT floors are based on the best performing single source for each regulated pollutant, with an appropriate accounting for emissions variability. In other words, the best performing unit was identified by ranking the units from lowest to highest for e ach subcategory and pollutant and selecting the unit with the lowest 3

- run test average emission test data for each pollutant . The UL was determined for the individual 3

- run test run data set for the best performing source for each regulated pollutant. T ables 7 through 9 of this preamble present the analysis summaries and the new source MACT floor limits. Table 7.

a – Dioxin/furan TEQ UL values often were greater than the total mass basis UL values, which would result in a TEQ limit g reater than the total mass basis. Therefore, paired total mass basis/TEQ data were analyzed and found that TEQ is 0. 078 times the amount of the total mass basis. The dioxin/furan TEQ limits were therefore calculated based on 0. 078 times the total mass ba sis limit.90

b

– Dioxin/furan TEQ data were not reported for this subcategory. As noted in the tables above, there were some instances where there were fewer test runs available for the best performing unit so that the UL could not be calculated. There w ere also some cases where the calculated UL produced a result that was greater than the existing MACT floor limit for that pollutant in that subcategory . Since the limit for new sources cannot be less stringent than that of existing sources, EPA selected the existing source MACT floor limit as the new source MACT floor limit in these instances. There was also one case where the best

- performing source in the burn

- off oven subcategory reported zero for each test run for SO 2 . This yields a calculated UL of zero (since the mean and standard deviation are zero), which does not give any allowance for variability. To address this, EPA used test data for the next best

- performing source (i.e., the lowest emitting source with non

- zero test data). EPA solicits com ment on this approach for setting this limit. EPA also solicits comment on whether the EPA should use an alternate one

- sided statistical interval, the 99 percent UPL instead of the UL . In general, a prediction interval (e.g., a UPL) is useful in determini ng what future91 values are likely to be, based upon present or past background samples taken. The 99 percent UPL represents the value which one can expect the mean of future 3

- run performance tests from the best

- performing 12 percent of sources to fall bel ow with 99 percent confidence, based upon the results of the independent sample of observations from the same best performing sources. T he 99 percent UPL value based on the test run data for those units in the best

- performing 12 percent can be calculated using one of the following spreadsheet equations depending on the distribution of the data : Normal distribution: 99% UPL = AVERAGE(Test Runs in Top 12%) + [STDEV(Test Runs in Top 12%) x TINV(2 x probability, n - 1 degrees of freedom) x SQRT((1/n) + (1/m))], for a one

tailed upper prediction limit with a probability of 0.01, sample size of n, and number of test runs whose average will be reported to EPA for compliance of m = 3. Lognormal distribution: 99% UPL = EXP{AVERAGE(Natural Log Values of Test Runs i n Top 12%) + [STDEV(Natural Log Values of Test Runs in Top 12%) x TINV(2 x probability, n

- 1 degrees of freedom) x SQRT((1/n) + (1/m))]}, for a one

tailed upper prediction limit with a probability of 0.01, sample size of n, and number of test runs whose ave rage will be reported to EPA for compliance of m = 3. In addition to the nine regulated pollutants, EPA is also proposing opacity standards for new and existing
CISWI. We considered how to appropriately account for variability, given the differences in opacity testing versus testing for the nine regulated pollutants. Because92 opacity can be affected by the amount, type and particle characteristics of PM in the gas stream, as well as process operation, we believe that opacity is an appropriate surrogate f or PM emissions. Therefore, using a ratio of PM to opacity would be an appropriate method for determining the opacity that would be associated with a given PM concentration. Using the data available for CISWI units, we identified the best

- performing unit with respect to PM for which we have opacity data, and that unit has a ratio of opacity to PM of 0.053. This ratio was then multiplied by each of the MACT floor PM limits, which were determined accounting for variability, for each subcategory to establis h an opacity limit. We are requesting comment on whether this is a reasonable approach to establishing opacity limits while accounting for data variability, and request any additional opacity information that we may utilize to establish an opacity limit. We are also requesting comment on the appropriateness of setting opacity limits for this source category. As explained above, concurrent with this proposal, EPA is also proposing to define the term “solid waste” for non

hazardous secondary materials. T hat proposal describes two alternative definitions of solid waste, and EPA has in this proposed rule for CISWI units calculated MACT standards93 based on each solid waste definition. EPA is proposing MACT emissions standards based on the primary proposed de finition of solid waste. In addition, EPA has determined the MACT emissions standards that would apply if the alternative proposed definition of solid waste was finalized, and we are taking comment on those standards. For purposes of the MACT standards b ased on the primary proposed definition of solid waste, we have considered certain secondary materials (including pulp and paper sludge, wood residuals, and some tire

- derived fuel) not to be solid waste, based on available information. Therefore, units co mbusting those materials have not been included in the proposed CISWI MACT calculations (i.e., the calculations based on the primary proposed definition of solid waste). EPA solicits comment on that conclusion for these and other secondary materials, and will take into account any relevant information that may warrant revising the proposed CISWI MACT floors. Comments relating to the proposed definition of solid waste should be submitted to the EPA docket for that rulemaking, because EPA will not be addres sing any such comments in the final CISWI rule.
D . Rationale for Beyond

- the

- floor Alternatives As discussed above, EPA may adopt emissions limitations and requirements that are more stringent than94 the MACT floor (i.e., beyond

- the

- floor). Unlike the MAC T floor methodology, EPA must consider cost s, non - air quality health and environmental impacts and energy requirement when considering beyond

- the

- floor alternatives. In developing this proposal, EPA considered for existing units the proposed CISWI NSPS e mission limits as a basis for the beyond

- the

- floor analysis for each subcategory. The CISWI NSPS limits are the MACT limits applicable to new CISWI units that are established through analys i s of the best performing single source for each regulated polluta nt (see earlier discussion in S ection IV .C above ). There are separate NSPS limits for each of the five CISWI subcategories: incinerators; energy recovery units; waste

- burning kilns; burn

- off ovens; and small, remote incinerators
. We request public commen ts on all aspects of the beyond

- the

- floor analysis, including whether there are combinations of control approaches that would
cost
- effectively reduce emissions of the Section 129(a)(4) pollutants
. We specifically request that the commenter provide cost, t echnical and other relevant information in support of any beyond

- the

- floor alternatives. EPA will evaluate the comments and any other additional information and may adopt beyond

- the

- floor options for the final rule if any that are identified are determine d to be reasonable
.95

T he beyond

- the

- floor analysis for each subcategory is based on an evaluation of the types of control approaches that would be necessary to achieve the NSPS level of control for the same subcategory
. Specifically, for purposes of our be yond

- the

- floor analysis, we evaluated the different combinations of available emission control techniques, including additional add

- on controls, that existing units would have to employ were we to require additional emissions reductions beyond the floor le vels set forth above. We are unaware of any control approaches other than those discussed below that would result in emissions reductions from CISWI units
. As part of our impacts analysis (discussed in section
V. below), we evaluated whether existing f acilities would choose to cease burning solid waste in incineration units after promulgation of the final CISWI standards. We have determined that most facilities with units in the incinerators, small remote incinerators or burn

- off ovens subcategories wi ll choose to cease operations once the proposed MACT floor limits are promulgated and that all units in the se three subcategories will cease combusting waste if beyond

- the

- floor levels are adopted. We considered this fact in evaluating the beyond

- the

- floo r options for these three subcategories and specifically in96 our consideration of the costs associated with the beyond

the

- floor options, which we found unreasonable. We analyzed the beyond

- the

- floor options on a pollutant

- by

- pollutant basis for each s ubcategory. We discuss below the possible beyond

- the

- floor controls and why we rejected them.

• For PM, Cd and Pb, units would add a fabric filter if there were none already, or improve the fabric filter if the unit is already equipped with one but could not meet the beyond

- the

- floor limit. Units could also be required to add an additional PM control device if existing fabric filters could not be modified to comply with the beyond

- the

- floor limit.

• For HCl and SO 2 , units would add a packed

- bed wet
scrubb er if there were none already, or if a wet scrubber already existed on the unit, upgrade to a larger pump to increase the liquid to gas ratio . If the unit was equipped with lime injection or a spray dryer, the beyond

- the

- floor technology was to add more l ime for SO 2 control. If more control was needed for
SO 2 , but not HCl, and the unit has a wet scrubber already, they would add caustic to the scrubber liquor. Units could also be required to add an97

additional SO 2 control device if the existing scrubber

co uld not be modified to comply with the beyond

- the

floor limit. The floor limits establish ed above for
waste
- burning kilns are already at the quantification limits of the test method and we are not aware of alternative methods to quantify additional reduct ions in HCl emissions
. In addition, we are not aware of any control technologies available that would reduce HCl emission from existing waste
- burning kilns to levels below the floor levels. Therefore, we could not evaluate a beyond

- the

- floor option for H Cl emissions from waste
- burning kilns.

• For Hg and CDD/CDF, activated carbon would be added and the carbon addition rate would be adjusted to meet the amount of reduction necessary to meet the proposed limit.

• For NO x , no beyond

- the

- floor options are demons trated to be achievable, as discussed below.

• For CO, the beyond

- the

- floor option consists of afterburner retrofits, tune

- ups, advanced combustion controls or catalytic oxidation for each subcategory except for waste
- burning kilns and energy recovery units . No beyond

- the

- floor options are available for these two subcategories , as discussed below
.98

CO . For CO, we evaluated afterburner retrofits, tune

ups, advanced combustion controls or an oxidation catalyst for incinerators, small remote incinerators and burn

- off ovens as being potential beyond

- the

- floor control technologies that could be applied to these units. Afterburner retrofits are applicable to units that have a secondary combustion chamber or an afterburner chamber installed on the device. Waste
- burning kilns and energy recovery units are not designed with secondary chambers or afterburners, so this particular control cannot be applied to these two subcategories.
For waste burning kilns, a significant amount of CO emissions can result from the pr esence of organic compounds in the raw materials and not only from incomplete combustion , so good combustion controls and practices are not as effective. Oxidation catalysts have not been applied to waste
- burning kilns and may not be as effective

on waste
- burning kilns as they are on other sources due to plugging problems. The only effective beyond

- the

- floor control we could identify for waste
- burning kilns would be a regenerative thermal oxidizer (RTO). In the analysis for the proposed Portland Cement N ESHAP , EPA notes that the additional costs and energy requirements associated with an RTO are significant, with an additional annualized c ost of99 $3.8 million per year (see 74 FR 21153). Under the most cost effective scenario (exis t ing unit emitting at 710 ppmv and a 98 percent CO reduction) the cost per ton of additional CO removal would be approximately $1,500. However, at the CO levels for most facilities , the cost per ton could be much higher. In addition, RTO have significant additional energy requir ements, and themselves create secondary emissions of CO, NO x , SO2 and PM due to their electrical demands (see 74 FR 21153). G iven the cost and adverse environmental and energy impacts, we determined that RTO was not a reasonable beyond

- the

- floor alternati ve to control CO emissions from waste
- burning kilns. For energy recovery units, we analyzed a beyond

- the

floor CO limit of 3 ppm. In comparison, the proposed MACT floor emission limit is 150 ppm. Therefore, the beyond

the

- floor CO emission limit is appro ximately 98 percent less than the MACT floor emission limit. We are unaware of any technology that is able to continuously meet a 3 ppm CO limit for all existing energy recovery units. Variances in fuel composition and condition will have an effect on CO emissions in addition to the controls in place, so this limit may be achievable for the best source based on their particular unit design and fuel inputs, but not demonstrated to be achievable for any other existing units100

without unreasonable costs associ ated with modification of the units . As a comparison, the proposed boiler NESHAP limit varies by combustor design, but for biomass boilers, which burn fuel s and have combustor designs that are similar in characteristics to some CISWI energy recovery units , the limits are in the order of 200 to 700 ppm. Given the lack of available controls that are demonstrated to achieve the beyond

- the

- floor emission limits at existing units and the costs associated with making the necessary modifications at existing unit s, we are not proposing beyond

- the

- floor limits for CO for energy recovery units
NO x . For NO x , we evaluated SNCR as the likely control technology that sources would apply to achieve the beyond

the

- floor limits. The control option would be to add SNCR if there were none installed to meet the MACT floor, or to increase the reagent injection rate if the unit was already equipped with SNCR technology. We also considered whether selective catalytic reduction (SCR) could be utilized by sources to achieve the b eyond

- the

- floor limits. SNCR is a proven technology for waste

- combustion units, with typical effectiveness of 30 to 50 percent . These reductions are within the reach of the levels estimated to meet the MACT floor emission limits. However, to achieve low er reductions (i.e., greater than 50 percent ) tha n the beyond

-101

the

- floor limits would require, SNCR may need to be applied in conjunction with combustion controls (Air Pollution Control Technology Fact Sheet, SNCR , EPA
- 452/F

- 03

- 031). Feasibility of these c ombustion controls, such as low NO x burners or combustion chamber modifications, are unit

specific and are likely not applicable to all existing units ; therefore, compliance with the beyond

- the

- floor would likely require significant modification at conside rable cost for some existing units
. In contrast, new sources can be designed so that the combustion chamber and air flow characteristics reduce NO x formation, which, in combination with SNCR controls, would be able to meet the new source NO x limits. SCR is typically utilized in combustion units such as industrial boilers and process heaters, gas turbines and reciprocating internal combustion engines (Air Pollution Control Technology Fact Sheet, SCR,
EPA
- 452/F

- 03

- 032) . We are not aware of any successful

a pplications of SCR technology to waste

- combustion units, however. This may be due to difficulties operating SCRs in operations where there is significant PM or sulfur loading in the gas stream. These two gas stream constituents can reduce catalyst activi ty, and lower the resulting effectiveness of the SCR, through catalyst poisoning and b l inding/plugging of active sites by ammonia sulfur salts102 (formed from sulfur in the flue gas with the ammonia reagent) and PM (Air Pollution Control Technology Fact Sheet , SCR, EPA

- 452/F

- 03

- 032). Therefore, we determined that available controls were not demonstrated adequately for existing CISWI units in any of the five subcategories to meet the beyond

- the

- floor NO x emission limits.
HCl and SO 2 . We expect that waste
- burn ing kilns would
install scrubber s to meet the proposed MACT floor emission limits for HCl , and the proposed EG and NSPS limits for HCl are the same
. As discussed above, the HCl floor level for
waste
- burning kilns is near the quantification limits of the a vailable test methods, and we are not aware of alternative methods to quantify beyond

- the

- floor reductions. The scrubbers needed to meet the CISWI MACT floor limits for HCl would also meet the CISWI MACT floor levels for SO 2 . However, we are not certain that it is feasible for existing waste
- burning kilns to utilize additional caustic in the ir scrubbers, or in their existing flue gas desulfurization devices, to be able to consistently meet the 3.6 ppm beyond

- the

- floor emission limit for SO 2 . There
are li mits to the amounts of additional caustic or lime that are technically feasible and the SO 2 content of the103 flue gas will vary depending on the fuel and the sulfur content of process raw materials that are charged to the
waste
- burning kiln. The only option for achieving additional SO 2 control is to add an additional SO 2 scrubbing device in series with the scrubber required to comply with the MACT floor limit . While we did not quantify the costs, we concluded , based on our review of the cost information, th at this level of control would pose unreasonable costs that would result in units ceasing to combust wastes in kilns. Therefore, we determined that additional controls were not demonstrated to continuously meet the beyond

- the

- floor SO 2 emission limits at existing
waste
- burning kilns. We examined beyond

- the

- floor options for the other subcategories as discussed below
. PM. In our analysis, we estimate that waste
- burning kilns would install fabric filter controls or improve existing fabric filters to meet t he proposed CISWI MACT floor limit s for PM and metals
. To meet the metals floor limits, highly efficient fabric filters, and possibly membrane bags, would be needed. These controls are the best technology available to control PM, and we have not identifi ed any additional controls that are available that would enable existing waste
- burning kilns to continuously meet the beyond

- the

- floor PM emission limit equivalent to104

the proposed CISWI NSPS limit (which is considerably lower than the CISWI floor). We ana lyzed beyond

- the

- floor controls for the other four subcategories as discussed below
. As with waste

- burning kilns, we estimate th at existing units in the energy recovery units subcategory would install fabric filter controls or improve existing fabric filte rs to meet the proposed CISWI MACT floor limits for PM and metals. As with waste
- burning kilns, the fabric filters would need to be highly efficient to meet the metals floor limits, and likely would need to be membrane bags. As stated above, membrane fab ric filters are the best technology available to control PM and metals . As such, the fabric filters that we believe will be necessary to control the metals will likely achieve a level of performance that is better than the MACT floor limit for
PM , resulti ng in additional PM reductions beyond the existing source floor level of control. For this reason, we believe that the PM emissions reductions associated with going beyond

- the

- floor to the new source floor limits is less than the 200 tons per year estimat ed based on an evaluation of the di f ference in PM emissions under the proposed existing source floor and the proposed new source floor . Furthermore, t o achieve PM and metals emissions105

reductions greater than those achieved using th e fabric filters that wi ll be required to meet the MACT floor emission limits , existing sources would likely need to install an additional particulate control device, such as a cartridge filtration system, which would require additional capital and operating expense, as well as r equire additional energy to p ower the fans for adequate draft. While we did not quantify the costs, we concluded, based on our review of the cost information, that this level of control would pose unreasonable costs. We analyzed beyond

- the

- floor controls for the other three subcategories as discussed below. Emissions Reduction Analysis Results
. We analyzed the emissions reductions that would be achieved if the beyond

the

- floor levels were adopted as MACT for those pollutants and subcategories for whic h additional control techniques were identified that could achieve beyond

- the

- floor emission limits. We estimat e that the beyond

- the

- floor levels for existing CISWI units would achieve additional emission reduction s (relative to the MACT floor) of 326
ton s per year (0.0 1 tons Cd, 3.5 CO , 113 HCl, 0. 07 Pb, 0.03 Hg,
- 0.1 NO x , 20 8 PM , 1 .6 SO 2 and 0.000 1 dioxins/furans). Analysis Results for Incinerator, Small Remote Incinerator and Burn

- off Ovens Subcategories
.106

As was done in the cost analysis for the MAC T floor emission limits , we also considered whether units would cease to combust waste and choose an alternative waste disposal method rather than add controls to comply with the beyond

- the

- floor limits. Based on the high costs of controls relative to the costs of alternative waste disposal methods, we concluded that all units within the incinerators , burn

- off ovens and small remote incinerators subcategories would shut down rather than comply with the beyond

- the

- floor limits. Facilities with incinerator units and small remote incinerator units would use alternative landfill disposal and facilities with burn

- off ovens would use abrasive blasting. In comparison, for the MACT floor impacts analysis, we determined there were 17 total units within these three subcategories that would remain open and comply with the MACT floor emission limits. The emission reductions above account for the secondary impacts of landfill gas flare emissions that would result from the incremental waste that is diverted to landfill s from existing CISWI units . Once these secondary impacts of the landfill gas flaring are accounted for, the emissions reduction is approximately zero for the incinerator, small remote incinerator and burn

- off oven subcategories, mainly due to the increas e in emissions from flaring the landfill107 gases generated by the additional diverted waste , compared to the modest additional stack emissions reductions from shutting these units down. The cost of the additional emissions reductions associated with going fr om the MACT floor to the beyond

the

- floor level vary by pollutant and subcategory. For the incinerator, small remote incinerator and burn

- off oven subcategories, the incremental annualized costs of control or alternative waste disposal is approximately $ 6 90 ,000
. As mentioned above, because of the increase in landfill gases, this additional cost would result in no additional emissions reductions for these source categories. T he beyond

- the

- floor limits for these source categories would be achieved at consi derable cost, would result in closure of additional units that would not close under the floor alternative , and would result in no additional emissions reduction ; therefore , we have determined it is not reasonable to go beyond

- the

- floor for these source

ca tegories. Analysis Results for Energy Recovery Units and Waste
burning Kilns . For the energy recovery units and waste
burning kilns, we analyzed the additional emissions reductions and additional control and monitoring costs of going beyond

- the

- floor by p ollutant groups according to the108 controls described above. Table 10 of this preamble lists the incremental costs and pollutant emissions reductions relative to the MACT floor level of control. Table 10. Incremental Costs and Emission Reductions Expected for Existing Units to Comply with Beyond

- Floor Emission Limits (Relative to the MACT Floor). Pollutants Subcategory Additional Annual Costs ($/yr) Additional Emissions Reductions (ton/year) Incremental cost effectiveness (additional costs/additional em issions reductions, $/ton) PM, Cd, Pb Energy recovery unit 2,082,013 202 10,307

As di scussed earlier, we believe that the additional emissions reduction for PM, Cd, and Pb are likely to be much lower than this analysis suggests, because sources will require some of the best PM control devices to meet the MACT floor level of control for met als, and will likely exceed the level of performance for PM needed to meet the MACT floor emission limit. Therefore, w e have concluded that the incremental costs of additional control above the109

MACT floor emission limit s are not reasonable relative to the level of emission reduction achieved. New Units
. No beyond

- the

- floor option was analyzed for new units because we are not aware of any technologies

or methods to achieve emission limits more stringent than the MACT floor limits for new units. As an e xample, we have discussed potential problems associated with additional SNCR reagent earlier in this section of the preamble. Incremental additions of activated carbon have not been proven to achieve further reductions above the projected flue gas concent ration estimated to achieve the limits for new sources. Furthermore, we already estimate no new CISWI sources will be constructed due to the costs associated with the MACT floor limits in the proposed NSPS
. For this reason, we do not think it is reasonab le to further add to the costs associated with the proposed NSPS
. In light of the technical feasibility, cost s, energy and non - air quality health and environmental impacts discussed above, we have determined it is not reasonable to establish beyond

- the

- f loor limits for existing and new CISWI units
. We also calculated potential beyond

- the

- floor emissions reductions for the “alternative approach” identified for consideration and comment in a parallel110
proposal under RCRA , which could potentially result in an additional 13,014 tons per year of projected emissions reductions (0.9 Cd, 3.5 CO, 7 HCl, 16. 4 Pb, 1. 3 Hg,
- 0.1
NO x , 12,984 PM, 1.6 SO 2 and 0.001 dioxins/furans)
. These are the reductions that would be achieved if we adopted the NSPS limits for the alt ernative approach as the beyond the floor limit for existing sources. We considered the same technical considerations and used the same emissions reductions and cost calculation methodologies described above for the proposed approach , which result in very similar cost effectiveness values as presented in Table 10 of this preamble
. However, we note that several of the MACT floor limits for energy recovery units and waste

burning kilns under the alternative approach are not as stringent as those for the pro posed approach , and the additional emission reductions that can be achieved by going beyond the floor for the alternative approach are much greater than the emission reductions available by going beyond the floor under the primary approach
. Therefore, in the case of the alternative approach, there may be intermediate level s of control that would be reasonable. Additional information on floor and beyond

the

- floor costs is discussed in “Compliance Cost Analyses for Existing CISWI Units” found in the CISWI d ocket.111

E. Rationale for Other Proposed Amendments In addition to the proposed emission limits, the following amendments are being proposed in this action. 1. Definitions and Removal of Exemptions We are revising the definition of CISWI unit to reflec t the Court decision that all units burning solid waste as defined by the Administrator under RCRA are to be covered by regulation under CAA Section 129. We are also adding a definition of “solid waste incineration unit” and

we are removing the definition of “commercial and industrial waste
. ” We are also proposing definitions of the five subcategories of CISWI units that will be regulated under the proposed rules. In the 2000 CISWI rule, there were 15 types of units that were exempted from regulation und er CISWI. We are proposing to remove some of the exemptions contained in the 2000 CISWI rule and we are maintaining the statutory exemptions and the exemptions for units included in the scope of other CAA Section 129 standards as discussed below. We beli eve that the proposed rule is d rafted in such a way to avoid the situation where a unit subject to standards under another S ection 129(a)(1) standard , would also be subject to this rule. We request comment on the112 proposed exemptions that address units inc luded in the scope of other CAA S ection 129 standards. To address the vacatur of the CISWI Definitions rule, EPA is proposing to regulate any combustion unit burning any solid waste, as that term is defined by the Administrator under RCRA, at a commerci al or industrial facility. The 2000 CISWI rule specifically exempted six types of units that may be CISWI units under this proposed rule : agricultural waste incineration units; cyclonic barrel burners; burn

- off ovens; cement kilns; chemical recovery units ; and laboratory analysis units. These six types of units would be regulated under the revised proposed CISWI standards if they burn solid waste at a commercial or industrial facility. The exemptions that would be retained in the proposed rule are eithe r statutory exemptions provided under CAA Section 129, or are for waste combustion units regulated under other Section 129 NSPS or EG. In particular, CAA Section 129(g)(1) specifically exempts: “...incinerators or other units required to have a permit under section 3005 of the Solid Waste Disposal Act. The term ‘solid waste incineration unit’ does not include (A) materials recovery facilities (including primary and secondary smelters) which combust waste for the primary purpose of recovering metals, (B) qua lifying small power production facilities, as defined in section 3(17)(C) of the Federal Power Act (16 U.S.C. 769(17(C)), or qualifying cogeneration facilities, as defined in section 3(18)(B) of113
the Federal Power Act (16 U.S.C. 796(18)(B)), which burn homo geneous waste (such as units which burn tires or used oil, but not including refuse

- derived fuel) for the production of electric energy or in the case of qualifying cogeneration facilities which burn homogeneous waste for he production of electric energy a nd steam or forms of useful energy (such as heat) which are used for industrial, commercial, heating or cooling purposes...” Therefore, the p r oposed CISWI rule retains exemptions for materials recovery facilities, qualifying small power production facilitie s, qualifying cogeneration facilities and hazardous waste combustors required to have a permit under Section 3005 of the Solid Waste Disposal Act. EPA is also proposing to exempt from CISWI the waste combustion units that are currently included in the scop e of another effective NSPS or EG or that EPA currently intends to regulate in an NSPS or EG. Those waste combustion units are: MWC units; medical waste incineration units; sewage treatment plants ; sewage sludge incineration units; and OSWI units, which i nclude pathological waste incineration units and institutional incinerators. There are existing standards for MWC units , medical waste combustion units and sewage treatment plants , but no standards are currently in place for pathological waste incineratio n units or SSI units. Regulations are currently being developed for SSI under proposed NSPS and EG of part 60. EPA also currently intends to regulate pathological114

waste incineration units in the revised “Other Solid Waste Incineration (OSWI)” standards u nder development. EPA’s intent in the CISWI rule is to exclude units that are properly regulated as OSWI units. However, a dditional solid waste incinerat ion units may exist that are OSWI units , which EPA has not identified in this proposed rule.
EPA sol icits comment on the scope of the proposed exemptions for units subject to CAA Section 1 29 standards. We are also proposing the removal of the 2000 CISWI rule exemption for units burning greater than 30 percent MSW and with the capacity to burn less than 35 tons per day of MSW or refuse derived fuel. We are proposing to remove this exemption to ensure that any CISWI unit combusting any solid waste is subject to these standards. Therefore, commercial and industrial units that were previously exempt
pursu ant to this provision would be required to meet the emission limits and operating requirements of the proposed rule. The 2000 CISWI rule also defined CISWI units such that industrial and commercial waste combustion units recovering
energy (e.g. units that would be boilers and process heaters if they did not combust solid waste) were not subject to regulation as CISWI units. This definition is not consistent with the statute and, as discussed above,115 the definitions are being revised to address the CISWI
De finitions Rule vacatur so that any unit at a commercial or industrial facility combusting any solid waste, as defined by the Administrator under RCRA, will be subject to the CISWI NSPS or EG. Therefore, the proposed definition s would no longer make a dist inction between those units that recover energy and those units that do not recover energy. As discussed earlier, those energy recovery units that burn solid waste but were previously subject to the boilers rule are now CISWI units and are addressed under the energy recovery unit s subcategory. Cement kilns and rack, part and drum reclamation units (i.e. burn

- off ovens) were exempt from the 2000 CISWI standards and, as stated above, we are proposing to create subcategories for those units and subject them to this proposed rule in light of the CISWI Definitions Rule vacatur. We note that other Section 129 standards may contain an exemption for cement kilns. Those exemptions do
not excuse waste burning kilns as defined in this proposed rule from compliance with the proposed CISWI standards. As those other Section 129 rules are amended, we will clarify that cement kilns that meet the proposed definition of
waste
- burning kiln are exempt from those standards because they are subject to the CISWI standards.116 For one type of unit that is exempt by statute from the definition of solid waste incineration unit, air curtain incinerators combusting “clean wood”, we are requesting comment on the requirement for those units to obtain title V permits. In addition , we are considering amending the exemption provisions at 40 CFR 60.2020 and 60.2555 to remove all references to units that are statutorily exempt from the definition of solid waste incineration unit. If we took such action, we would develop a new section to retain the notification requirements contained in those sections and applicable to such statutorily exempt units. We request comment on this proposed approach. 2. Performance Testing and Monitoring Requirements We are proposing some adjustments to th e performance testing and monitoring requirements that were promulgated in 2000. For existing CISWI units, we are proposing retaining the current performance testing and monitoring requirements of the rule and adding the following requirements:

• Annual ins pections of scrubbers, fabric filters and other air pollution control devices that may be used to meet the emission limits.117

• Annual visual emissions test of ash handling procedures (for all subcategories except waste
- burning kilns).

• Control device parameter monitoring for activated carbon injection, electrostatic precipitators and SNCR controls.

• For energy recovery units : CO CEMS monitoring, continuous opacity monitoring (COMS) for units that are not equipped with wet scrubbers and PM CEMS for units greater than 250 MMBtu/hr capacity.

• For waste
- burning kilns, Hg CEMS monitoring.

• Monitoring of bypass stack use if installed at an affected unit. These proposed requirements were selected to provide additional assurance that sources continue to operate at the leve ls established during their initial performance test. For the waste
- burning kiln and energy recovery unit subcategories, the proposed CEMS requirements are consistent with the CAA Section 112(d) standards proposed for their non

- waste burning counterparts, but adjusted to reflect the pollutants subject to CAA Section 129 regulations. For example, the proposed Portland Cement NESHAP ( 74 FR 21136 ) requires monitoring of Hg with a Hg CEMS. Likewise, the energy recovery unit monitoring118 requirements are simila r to the Boiler NESHAP being proposed concurrently with the CISWI proposal. In doing so, we are not only reflecting the improvements in monitoring technology and practices for these subcategories made since 2000, but are also providing consistency in moni toring, recordkeeping and reporting, where appropriate. Likewise, the visual emissions test of ash handling procedures and annual control device inspections have been adopted for HMIWI, another CAA Section 129 source category. HMIWI standards (74 FR 5136 7) contain these requirements to ensure that the ash , which may contain metals , is not emitted to the atmosphere through fugitive emissions and that control devices are maintained properly. The large and small MWC standards also have similar fugitive ash monitoring requirements. We propose to require the fugitive ash monitoring provisions that are contained in the HMIWI and MWC rules. The proposed amendments would allow sources to use the results of emissions tests conducted within the previous two year s to demonstrate initial compliance with the revised emission limits as long as the sources certify that the previous test results are representative of current operations. Such tests must have been conducted using the test methods specified in the CISWI rules and must be the119 most recent tests performed on the unit. Those sources , whose previous emissions tests do not demonstrate compliance with one or more of the revised emission limits , would be required to conduct another emissions test for those pollu tants. This allowance to use previous tests would minimize the burden to affected sources, especially since most sources performed recent emissions tests in support of the development of the CISWI standards (i.e., the CISWI Phase 2 ICR) and sources subjec t to the 2000 CISWI EG already test for HCl, PM and opacity on an annual basis. We seek comment on the appropriateness of the use of previously conducted performance tests. The proposed amendments also would allow for reduced testing of PM, HCl, and opac ity as were allowed in the rule promulgated in 2000, but we are proposing amending these reduced testing allowances to provide a compliance margin of 75 percent of the standard to be able to qualify for testing for these pollutants once every three years. The reduced testing allowance and compliance margin provides flexibility and incentive to sources that operate well within the emissions standard, and to provide more timely follow

- through , on assuring that sources that are marginally in compliance , will remain in compliance.120 Additional requirements also are proposed for new CISWI. For new sources, we are proposing retaining the current requirements and adding the requirements for existing units as listed above, plus requiring CO CEMS for all subcatego ries of CISWI. These CEMS would be relatively simple to install for a new CISWI unit, and would help ensure that the sources are operated well using good combustion practices. Low CO levels are an indicator of complete combustion and that the unit is bei ng operated in a manner that minimizes not only CO emissions, but also emissions of other pollutants. We also are clarifying that the rule allows for the following optional CEMS use: CO CEMS, NO x CEMS, and SO 2 CEMS for existing sources; and NO x CEMS, SO 2 CEMS, PM CEMS, HCl CEMS, multi

- metals CEMS, Hg CEMS, integrated sorbent trap Hg monitoring and integrated sorbent trap dioxin monitoring for existing and new sources. Some of the subcategories may have CO CEMS, NO x CEMS, or SO 2 CEMS already to meet othe r regulatory or permit requirements and we propose to would allow them to continue to use these monitors to demonstrate continuous compliance with the CISWI standards. The optional use of HCl CEMS, multi

metals CEMS, integrated sorbent trap Hg monitoring and integrated sorbent trap dioxin monitoring will be available121 on the date a final performance specification for these monitoring systems is published in the Federal Register or the date of approval of a site

- specific monitoring plan. The proposed monito ring provisions are discussed in more detail below. Monitoring Provisions for SNCR . The proposed amendments would require monitoring of secondary chamber temperature (if applicable to the CISWI unit, since certain subcategories may not have a secondary ch amber or afterburner) and reagent (e.g., ammonia or urea) injection rate for CISWI that install SNCR as a method of reducing
NO x emissions. These are easily measured parameters that will ensure the SNCR continues to be well operated and able to achieve th e desired emissions reductions. Monitoring Provisions for Activated Carbon Injection (Hg sorbent injection) . The proposed amendments would require monitoring of activated carbon sorbent injection rate to ensure that the minimum sorbent injection rate meas ured during the compliance test is continually maintained. Monitoring Provisions for ESP . The proposed amendments would require monitoring of the voltage and amperage of the collection plates to ensure that the ESP operating parameters measured during th e compliance test are maintained on a continuous basis.122

CO CEMS . The proposed amendments would require the use of CO CEMS for new sources and allow the use of CO CEMS on existing sources, except energy recovery units, where a CO CEMS is also required for existing sources. Owners and operators who use CO CEMS would be able to discontinue their annual CO compliance test. The continuous monitoring of CO emissions is an effective way of ensuring that the combustion unit is operating properly. The proposed amendments incorporate the use of performance specification (PS)

- 4B (Specifications and Test Procedures for Carbon Monoxide and Oxygen Continuous Monitoring Systems in Stationary Sources) of appendix B of 40 CFR part 60. The proposed CO emission limits are based on data from infrequent (normally annual) stack tests and compliance would be demonstrated by stack tests. The change to use of CO CEMS for measurement and enforcement of the same emission limits must be carefully considered in relation to
an appro priate averaging period for data reduction. In past EPA rulemakings for incineration units, EPA has selected averaging times between four hours and 24 hours based on statistical analysis of long

- term CEMS data for a particular subcategory. Because suffic ient CO CEMS data are unavailable for CISWI to perform such an analysis and determine an emission level that would correspond to a123 shorter averaging period, EPA concluded that the use of a 24

- hour block average was appropriate to address potential changes in CO emissions. The 24

- hour block average would be calculated following procedures in EPA Method 19 of appendix A

- 7 of 40 CFR part 60. Facilities electing to use CO CEMS as an optional method would be required to notify
EPA one month before starting use of CO CEMS and one month before stopping use of the CO CEMS. In addition, EPA specifically requests comment on whether continuous monitoring of CO emissions should be required for all existing CISWI.
PM CEMS . The proposed amendment s would allow the use of PM CEMS as an alternative testing and monitoring method (except for energy recovery units with a heat input capacity greater than 250 MMBtu/hr which are required to use them). Owners or operators who are required to use, or choose to rely on, PM CEMS would be able to discontinue their annual PM compliance test. In addition, because units that demonstrate compliance with the PM emission limits with a PM CEMS would also be meeting the opacity standard, compliance demonstration with PM CEMS would be considered a substitute for opacity testing or opacity monitoring. Owners and operators who use PM CEMS also would be able to discontinue their monitoring of minimum124
wet scrubber pressure drop, horsepower or amperage. These parameter mon itoring requirements were designed to ensure the scrubber continues to operate in a manner that reduces PM emissions and would not be necessary if PM is directly measured on a continuous basis. The proposed amendments incorporate the use of PS

- 11 (Specifi cations and Test Procedures for Particulate Matter Continuous Emission Monitoring Systems at Stationary Sources) of appendix B of 40 CFR part 60 for PM CEMS and PS

- 11 QA Procedure 2 to ensure that PM CEMS are installed and operated properly and produce goo d quality monitoring data. The proposed PM emission limits are based on data from infrequent (normally annual) stack tests and compliance would generally be demonstrated by stack tests. The use of PM CEMS for measurement and enforcement of the same emissi on limits must be carefully considered in relation to an appropriate averaging period for data reduction. Because PM CEMS data are unavailable for CISWI, EPA concluded that the use of a 24

- hour block average was appropriate to address potential changes in PM emissions that cannot be accounted for with short term stack test data. The 24

- hour block average would be calculated following procedures in EPA Method 19 of appendix A

- 7 of 40 CFR part 60. An owner or operator of a CISWI unit who125

wishes to use PM C EMS would be required to notify EPA one month before starting use of PM CEMS and one month before stopping use of the PM CEMS. Opacity Monitors (COMS) . EPA is proposing that energy recovery units that do not rely on a wet scrubber to control emissions con tinuously monitor opacity. EPA’s understanding is that moist gas streams affect the accuracy of COMS systems; therefore these systems would not be applicable to units using wet scrubbers. If the energy recovery unit is required to monitor PM with a PM CE MS, or an owner or operator wishes to use PM CEMS, then they would not be required to also operate a COMS. Other source categories with COMS requirements require one hour block averages, which is what we are proposing for CISWI units. The proposed amendm ents incorporate the use of performance specification 1 of appendix B of 40 CFR part 60 for COMS. While the proposed amendments require PM CEMS for very large energy recovery units (those over 250 MMBtu/hr ) , EPA is also requesting comment on the utility a nd practicality of requiring PM CEMS on energy recovery units of 100 MMBTU/hour design capacity or greater, as well as on waste
burning kilns and large incinerators. EPA specifically solicits comment on appropriate size thresholds for requiring PM CEMS on incinerators.126 Other CEMS and Monitoring Systems . EPA also is proposing the optional use of NO x CEMS, SO 2 CEMS, HCl CEMS, multi

metals CEMS, Hg CEMS, integrated sorbent trap Hg monitoring and integrated sorbent trap dioxin monitoring as alternatives to th e existing monitoring methods for demonstrating compliance with the NO x , SO 2 , HCl, metals (Pb, Cd and Hg) and dioxin/furans emissions limits. Because CEMS data for CISWI are unavailable for all subcategories for NO x , SO 2 , HCl and metals, EPA concluded
tha t the use of a 24

- hour block average was appropriate to address potential changes in emissions of NO x , SO 2 , HCl and
metals that cannot be accounted for with short term stack test data. EPA has concluded that the use of 24

- hour block averages would be appr opriate to address emissions variability and EPA has included the use of 24

- hour block averages in the proposed rule. The 24

- hour block averages would be calculated following procedures in EPA Method 19 of appendix A of 40 CFR part 60. The proposed amend ments incorporate the use of performance specification 2 of appendix B of 40 CFR part 60 for NO x CEMS. Although final performance specifications are not yet available for HCl CEMS and multi

- metals CEMS, EPA is considering development of performance specif ications. The proposed rule specifies127 that these options will be available to a facility on the date a final performance specification is published in the Federal Register
. The use of HCl CEMS would allow the discontinuation of HCl sorbent flow rate monit oring, scrubber liquor pH monitoring and the annual testing requirements for HCl. EPA has proposed PS

- 13 (Specifications and Test Procedures for Hydrochloric Acid Continuous Monitoring Systems in Stationary Sources) of appendix B of 40 CFR part 60 and
exp ects that performance specification can serve as the basis for a performance specification for HCl CEMS use at
CISWI. T he procedures used in proposed PS

- 13 for the initial accuracy determination us e the relative accuracy test, a comparison against a refer ence method
. EPA is taking comment on an alternate initial accuracy determination procedure, similar to the one in section 11 of PS

- 15 ( performance specification for Extractive FTIR Continuous Emissions Monitor Systems in Stationary Sources) of appendix B of 40 CFR part 60 using the dynamic or analyte spiking procedure. EPA believes multi

- metals CEMS can be used in many applications, including CISWI. EPA has monitored side

- by

burning kilns, and the options of using Hg CEMS or an integrated sorbent trap Hg monitoring system for other
C ISWI, would take effect on the date of approval of a site

specific monitoring plan. An owner or operator of a CISWI unit who wishes to use Hg CEMS would be required to notify
EPA one month before starting use of Hg CEMS and one month before stopping use o f the Hg CEMS. The use of multi

metals CEMS or Hg CEMS would allow the discontinuation of wet scrubber outlet flue gas temperature monitoring. Mercury sorbent flow rate monitoring could not be eliminated in favor of a multi

- metals CEMS or Hg CEMS because it also is an indicator of dioxin, furans control. The integrated sorbent trap monitoring of Hg would entail use of a continuous automated sampling system with analysis of the samples at set intervals using any suitable determinative technique that can meet appropriate criteria. The option to use a continuous automated sampling system would take effect on the date of approval of a site

specific monitoring plan. As with Hg and multi

- metal CEMS, Hg sorbent flow rate monitoring could not be eliminated in favor of integrated sorbent trap monitoring of Hg because it also is an indicator of dioxin, furans control. Additionally, there is no annual Hg test that could be130 eliminated, because the proposed rule does not require such
a test. The integrated sorbent trap monitoring of dioxin would entail use of a continuous automated sampling system and analysis of the sample according to EPA Reference Method 23 of appendix A

- 7 of 40 CFR part 60. The option to use a continuous automated sampling system would take eff ect on the date a final performance specification is published in the Federal Register or the date of approval of a site

specific monitoring plan. Integrated sorbent trap monitoring of dioxin would allow the discontinuation of fabric filter inlet temperat ure monitoring. Dioxin/furan sorbent flow rate monitoring could not be eliminated in favor of integrated sorbent trap monitoring of dioxin because it also is an indicator of Hg control. Additionally, there is no annual dioxin/furans test that
could be el iminated, because the proposed rule does not require such a test. If integrated sorbent trap monitoring of dioxin as well as multi

- metals CEMS, Hg CEMS, or integrated sorbent trap Hg monitoring are used, Hg sorbent flow rate monitoring and dioxin/furans sorbent flow rate monitoring (in both cases activated carbon is the sorbent) could be eliminated. These parameter monitoring requirements were131 designed to ensure that controls continue to be operated in a manner to reduce dioxin/furans, metals and mercury emissions , and corresponding monitoring is not needed if all of these pollutants are directly measured on an ongoing basis. EPA requests comment on other parameter monitoring requirements that could be eliminated upon use of any or all of the optional CE MS discussed above.

1 EPA Reference Methods in appendix A of 40 CFR part 60134 This proposal contains minimum data availability requirements f or CEMS; generally, valid emissions data are required for a minimum of 85 percent of the hours per day, 90 percent of the hours per calendar quarter , and 95 percent of the hours per calendar year that the affected facility is operat ing and combusting soli d waste (as that term is defined by the Administrator under RCRA) . We seek comment on whether or not the rule should require valid emissions data from CEMS for all times that an affected facility is operated and on approaches to provide that data, e.g., r edundant CEMS, prescribed missing data procedures, owner

- or operator
- developed missing data procedures, or parametric monitoring. 3. Have the startup, shutdown and malfunction provisions changed ? This action also revises the provisions of the 2000
CISWI rul e as it applies to periods of startup, shutdown and malfunction. This proposed revision affects all CISWI units, including units that were regulated by the 2000 CISWI rule and those units that are subject to this proposed rule . The revision of these provisions is a result of a Court decision that invalidated certain regulations related to startup, shutdown and malfunction in the General Provisions of Part 63 ( Sierra Club v. EPA , 551135
F.3d 1019 (D.C. Cir. 2008)). W hile the Court’s ruling did not specif ically address the legality of source category

specific SSM provisions adopted in the 2000 CISWI rule , the decision calls into question the legality of those provisions
. A s such, EPA is proposing to remove the exemption for SSM periods contained in the 20 00 CISWI rule and the proposed emission standards summarized in this preamble would apply at all times. We are not proposing a separate emission standard for the source categories at issue here that applies during periods of startup and shutdown. We de termined that CISWI

un i ts will be able to meet the emission limits during periods of startup because most units use natural gas or clean distillate oil to start the unit and add waste once the unit has reached combustion temperatures. Emissions from burni ng natural gas or distillate fuel oil would generally be significantly lower than from burning solid
wastes. Emissions during periods of shutdown are also generally significantly lower than emissions during normal operations because the materials in the i ncinerator will be almost fully combusted before shutdown occurs. Furthermore, t he approach for establishing MACT floors for CISWI units ranked individual CISWI units based on actual performance for each pollutant and subcategory, with an1 36 appropriate acco unting of emissions variability. Because we accounted for emissions variability and established appropriate averaging times to determine compliance with the standards, we believe we have adequately addressed any minor variability that may potentially occu r during startup or shutdown. Periods of startup, normal operations and shutdown are all predictable and routine aspects of a source’s operations. However, by contrast, malfunction is defined as a “sudden, infrequent and not reasonably preventable fail ure of air pollution control and monitoring equipment, process equipment or a process to operate in a normal or usual manner * * *
. ” (40 CFR 60.2). EPA has determined that malfunctions should not be viewed as a distinct operating mode and, therefore, any emissions that occur at such times do not need to be factored into development of CAA Section 129 standards, which, once promulgated, apply at all times. It is reasonable to interpret Section 1 29 as not requiring EPA to account for malfunctions in settin g emissions standards. For example, we note that CAA Se ction 129 uses the concept of “best performing” sources in defining MACT, the level of stringency that major source standards must meet. Applying the concept of “best performing” to a source that is malfunctioning presents137

difficulties. The goal of best performing sources is to operate in such a way as to avoid malfunctions of their units. Moreover, even if malfunctions were considered a distinct operating mode, we believe it would be impracticable to take malfunctions into account in setting CAA Section 129 standards for CISWI units. As noted above, by definition, malfunctions are sudden and unexpected
events and it would be difficult to set a standard that takes into account the myriad different t ypes of malfunctions that can occur across all sources. Finally , malfunctions can vary in frequency, degree and duration, further complicating standard setting. For a source that fails to comply with the applicable CAA Section 129 standards as a result of a malfunction event, EPA would determine an appropriate response based on, among other things, the good faith efforts of the source to minimize emissions during malfunction periods, including preventative and corrective actions, as well as
root cause an alyses to ascertain and rectify excess emissions. EPA would also consider whether the source's failure to comply with the CAA Section 129 standard was, in fact, “sudden, infrequent, not reasonably preventable” and was not instead “caused in part by poor m aintenance or138 careless operation.” (40 CFR 60.2 (definition of malfunction) )
. 4. Delegation of authority to implement and enforce these provisions We are proposing clarifications to the authorities that can be delegated or transferred to state , local and
t ribal air pollution control agencies in this rulemaking. In the past, there has been some confusion about what authorities can be delegated and exercised by state , local and t ribal air pollution control agencies and which authorities must be retained by EPA. In some cases, state , local and t ribal air pollution control agencies were making decisions, such as allowing waivers of some provisions of this subpart that cannot be delegated to those agencies. There is a list of authorities that must be retaine d by EPA in 40 CFR 60.2530. To this list, we propose to add the approval of alternative opacity emission limits referenced in 60.2105 which, in turn refer to general provisions in 60.11(e) and the approval of performance test and data reduction waivers un der 40 CFR 60.8(b). These authorities may affect the stringency of the emissions standards or limitations which can only be amended by federal rulemaking, thus they cannot be transferred to state , local

or tribal air pollution control agencies. We are al so139 adding 40 CFR 60.2542 to make the provisions regarding the implementation and enforcement authorities in both s ubparts CCCC and DDDD consistent. We are seeking comment on whether these or other authorities should be retained by
EPA or delegated to stat e , local or tribal air pollution control agencies. 5. State Plans We are proposing regulatory language to clarify how

s tate s and eligible t rib es can fulfill their obligation under CAA Section 129(b)(2) in lieu of submitting a state plan for review and app roval . We are adding 40 CFR 60.2541 that will clarify how state s and eligible t ribes can fulfill th e obligation under Section 129(b)(2) by submitting an acceptable, as specified in 40 CFR 60.2541, written request for delegation of the f ederal plan.
P ropo sed 40 CFR 60.2541 lists specific requirements, such as a demonstration of adequate resources and legal authority to implement and enforce the federal plan that must be met in order to receive delegation of the federal plan. We are seeking comment on this provision
. V. Impacts of the Proposed Action
A. What are the primary air impacts? We have estimated the potential emissions reductions from existing sources that may be realized through140 implementation of the proposed emission limits. However, we realize th at some CISWI owners and operators are likely
to determine that alternatives to waste incineration are viable, such as sending the waste to a landfill or MWC , if available. In fact, sources operating incinerators, burn

off ovens and small, remote incinera tors, where energy recovery is not a goal, may find it most cost

- effective to discontinue use of their CISWI unit altogether. Therefore, we have estimated emission s reductions attributable to existing sources complying with the proposed limits, as well as those reductions that would occur if the facilities with incinerators, burn

- off ovens and small, remote incinerator s decide to discontinue the use of their CISWI unit and use alternative waste disposal options. For units combusting wastes for energy pro duction, such as energy recovery units and waste
- burning kilns , the decision to combust or not to combust waste will depend on several factors. One factor is the cost to replace the energy provided by the waste material with a traditional fuel, such as na tural gas. Another factor would be whether the owner or operator is purchasing the waste or obtaining it at no cost from other generators, or if they are generating the waste on

- site and will have to dispose of the materials in another fashion, such as la ndfills.141 Lastly, these units would have to compare the control requirements needed to meet the CISWI emission limits with those needed if they stop burning solid waste and are then subject to a NESHAP instead. As mentioned before, we have attempted to al ign the monitoring requirements for similar

non - waste burning sources as closely as possible in an effort to make them consistent and to help sources make the

cross - walk between waste and non

- waste regulatory requirements as simpl e as possible. The emissi ons reductions that would be achieved under this proposed rule using the concurrently proposed definition of solid waste under RCRA are presented in Table 13 of this preamble. Table 13.

The potential emissions reductions based on this “alternative approach” are presented in Table 14 of this preamble. Table 14.

Based on the results of our analysis for existing units and our experiences with other CAA Section 129 regulations, we d o not anticipate that any new CISWI units143

will be constructed. As discussed earlier, many existing CISWI owners and operators may find that alternate disposal options are preferable to compliance with the proposed standards. Our experience with regulatio ns for municipal waste combustors, HMIWI and, in fact, CISWI has shown that negative growth in the source category historically occurs upon implementation of CAA Section 129 standards. Since CISWI rules were promulgated in 2000 and have been in effect for existing sources since 2005, many existing units have closed. At promulgation in 2000, EPA estimated 122 units in the CISWI population. In comparison, the incinerator subcategory in this proposal , which would contain any such units subject to the 2000 C ISWI rule , has 28 units. EPA is not aware of any construction of new units since 2000 , so we do not believe there are any units that are currently subject to the 2000 CISWI NSPS . The revised CISWI rule is more stringent, so we expect this trend to contin ue. We would also expect the same to be true for the subcategories of units that would be newly affected by the proposed revised CISWI rules. Industrial or commercial operations consider ing waste disposal options for their facilities will likely choose n ot to construct new CISWI units and to use alternative waste disposal methods or alternative fuels that will not subject them to144
the CISWI rule. For example, tire

- derived fuel from which the metal has been removed is not considered solid waste under the p roposed definition of solid waste. Consequently, new cement kiln owners will assess their regulatory requirements under CISWI for burning whole tires or tire

- derived fuel that does not have metals removed against the costs associated with removing the met al and complying with the applicable NESHAP instead of the CISWI rule . Our research suggests that metal removal is routinely practiced and would most likely be a viable option for new kiln owners so that they would not be subject to the CISWI regulations. Likewise, new sources could engineer their process to minimize waste generation in the first place, or to separate wastes so that the materials sent to a combustion unit would not meet the definition of solid waste to begin with. For waste that is
gener ated, cost analyses have found that alternative waste disposal is generally available and less expensive
. However, we request comment on whether new sources will likely be constructed. In case a facility deems waste combustion a suitable option and const ructs a new CISWI unit, we have developed model CISWI unit emissions reduction estimates for each subcategory using the existing unit baseline and the new source emission limits. Table 15145 of this preamble presents the model plant emissions reductions that would be expected for new sources. Table 15. Emissions Reductions on a Model Plant Basis Emission reduction for CISWI Subcategory Model Units ( ton /yr unless otherwise noted )

B. What are the water and solid waste impacts? We anticipate affected sources will need to apply additional controls t o meet the proposed emission limits. These controls may utilize water, such as wet scrubbers, which would need to be treated. We estimate an annual requirement of 68 million gallons per year of additional wastewater would be generated as a result of oper ating additional controls or increased sorbent use. Likewise, the addition of PM controls or improvements to controls already in place will increase the amount of146 particulate collected that will require disposal. Furthermore, activated carbon injection ma y be utilized by some sources, which will result in additional solid waste needing disposal. The annual amounts of solid waste that would require disposal are anticipated to be approximately 1, 760 tons/yr from PM capture and 10, 860 tons/yr from activated carbon injection. Perhaps the largest impact on solid waste would come from owners and operators who decide to discontinue the use of their CISWI unit and instead send waste to the landfill or MWC for disposal. Based on tipping fees and availability, we would expect most, if not all, of this diverted waste to be sent to a local landfill. As we discuss above, it may be that a good portion of the incinerators, burn

- off ovens and small, remote incinerators would determine that alternative disposal is a bett er choice than compliance with the proposed standards . If this were the case for all of the units in these subcategories, we estimate that approximately 214 ,000 tons per year of waste would be diverted to a landfill. As mentioned above, we do not antici pate any new CISWI units to be constructed. Therefore, there would be no water or solid waste impacts associated with controls for new units.147

C. What are the energy impacts? The energy impacts associated with meeting the proposed emission limits would c onsist primarily of additional electricity needs to run added or improved air pollution control devices. For example, increased scrubber pump horsepower may cause slight increases in electricity consumption and sorbent injection controls would likewise

re quire electricity to power pumps and motors. By our estimate, we anticipate that an additional 271,455 MW
- hours per year would be required for the additional and improved control devices. As discussed earlier, there could be instances where owners and operators of energy recovery units and waste
burning kilns decide to cease burning waste materials. In these cases, the energy provided by the burning of waste would need to be replaced with a traditional fuel, such as natural gas. Assuming an estimate t hat 50 percent of the energy input to energy recovery units and kilns are from waste materials , an estimate of the energy that would be replac ed with a traditional fuel if all existing units stopped burning waste materials , is approximately 56
T Btu/yr. Si nce we do not anticipate any new CISWI units to be constructed, there would be no energy impacts associated with control of new units.148

D. What are the secondary air impacts? For CISWI units adding controls to meet the proposed emission limits, we anticip ate very minor secondary air impacts, comprising emissions from electric generating units needed to provide the electricity to power the emission control devices. As discussed earlier, we believe it likely that the incinerators, burn

- off ovens and small, remote incinerators may elect to discontinue the use of their CISWI unit and send the waste to the landfill or other disposal means. As we discussed in the solid waste impacts above, this could result in approximately 214 ,000 tons per year of waste going to landfills. By using EPA’s Landfill Gas Estimation Model, we estimate that, over the 20

- year expected life of a CISWI unit, the resulting methane generated by a landfill receiving the waste would be about 187 ,000 tons. If this landfill gas were combust ed in a flare, assuming typical flare emission factors and landfill gas chlorine, Hg and sulfur concentrations, the following emissions would be expected: 38 tons of PM; 16 tons of HCl; 32 tons of SO 2 ; 1, 724 tons of CO; 90 tons of NO x ; and about 3 lbs of Hg. Here again, since we do not anticipate any new CISWI units, we do not expect any secondary air impacts associated with control of new units.149

E. What are the cost and economic impacts? We have estimated compliance costs for all existing units to add t he necessary controls and monitoring equipment, and to implement the inspections, recordkeeping and reporting requirements to comply with the proposed CISWI standards. We have also analyzed the costs of alternative disposal for the subcategories that may have alternative options to burning waste, specifically for the incinerators, burn

- off ovens and small, remote incinerators. In our analysis, we have selected the lowest cost alternative (i.e., compliance or alternative disposal) for each facility. Based on this analysis, we anticipate an overall total capital investment of $574 million with an associated total annual cost of $216 million. Under the proposed rule, EPA’s economic model suggests the average national market

- level variables (prices, productio n - levels, consumption, international trade) will not change significantly (e.g., are less than 0.01 percent ). EPA performed a screening analysis for impacts on small entities by comparing compliance costs to sales/revenues (e.g., sales and revenue tests). EPA’s analysis found the tests were below 1 percent for small entities included in the screening analysis.150 We do not anticipate any new CISWI units to be constructed. Therefore, we do not anticipate any costs associated with control of new units.
F. Wha t are the benefits? We estimated the monetized benefits of this proposed regulatory action to be $240 million to $580 million (2008$, 3 percent discount rate) in the implementation year (2015). The monetized benefits of the proposed regulatory action at a 7 percent discount rate are $210 million to $520 million (2008$). Using alternate relationships between PM 2.5 and premature mortality supplied by experts, higher and lower benefits estimates are plausible, but most of the expert

- based estimates fall betw een these two
estimates. 9 A summary of the monetized benefits estimates at discount rates of 3 percent and 7 percent is in Table 16 of this preamble.

All fine particles are assumed to have equivalent health effects, but the benefit

- per - to n estimates vary between precursors because each ton of precursor reduced has a different propensity to form PM 2.5 . The monetized benefits from reducing 24,000 tons of carbon monoxide, 560 tons of hydrochloric acid, 5.4 tons of cadmium, 6.0 tons of lead, 280 pounds of mercury, and 230 grams of total dioxins/furans, each year are not included in these estimates. In addition, the monetized benefits from reducing ecosystem effects and visibility impairment are not included. These benefits estimates repre sent the total monetized human health benefits for populations exposed to less PM 2.5 in 2015 from controls installed to reduce air pollutants in order to meet these standards. These estimates are calculated as the sum of the monetized value of avoided
pre mature mortality and morbidity associated with reducing a ton of PM 2.5 and PM 2.5 precursor emissions. To estimate human health benefits derived from reducing PM 2.5 and PM 2.5 precursor emissions, we utilized the general approach and methodology established in Fann et al. (2009) 10

.

10 Fann, N., C.M. Fulcher, B.J. Hubbell. 2009. “ The influence of location, source, and emission type in estimates of the human health benefits of reducing a ton of air pollution. ” Air Qual Atmos H ealth (2009) 2:169

– 176.152 To generate the benefit

- per - ton estimates, we used a model to convert emissions of direct PM 2.5 and PM 2.5 precursors into changes in ambient PM 2.5 levels and another model to estimate the changes in human health associated with t hat change in air quality. Finally, the monetized health benefits were divided by the emissions reductions to create the benefit

- per - ton estimates. Even though we assume that all fine particles have equivalent health effects, the benefit

- per - ton estimate s vary between precursors because each ton of precursor reduced has a different propensity to form PM 2.5 . For example, SO X has a
lower benefit

- per - ton estimate than direct PM 2.5 because it
does not form as much PM 2.5 , thus the exposure would be
lower and the monetized health benefits would be lower. For context, it is important to note that the magnitude of the PM benefits is largely driven by the concentration response function for premature mortality. Experts have advised EPA to consider a variety of assumptions, including estimates based both on empirical (epidemiological) studies and judgments elicited from scientific experts, to characterize the uncertainty in the relationship between PM 2.5 concentrations and premature153 mortality. For this proposed rule , we cite two key empirical studies, one based on the American Cancer Society cohort study 11 and the extended Six Cities cohort study 12

. In the Regulatory Impact Analysis ( RIA ) for this proposed rule, which is available in the docket, we also include b enefits estimates derived from expert judgments and other assumptions. This analysis does not include the type of detailed uncertainty assessment found in the 2006 PM 2.5 NAAQS RIA because we lack the necessary air quality input and monitoring data to run t he benefits model. However, the
2006 PM 2.5 NAAQS benefits analysis 13 provides an indication of the sensitivity of our results to various assumptions. It should be emphasized that the monetized benefits estimates provided above do not include benefits from several important benefit categories, including reducing other air pollutants, ecosystem effects and visibility

HAP have not been monetized in this analysis, including reducing 29,000 tons of CO , 590 tons of hydrochloric acid, 5.4 tons of Cd , 6.0 tons of lead and 280 pounds of Hg each year. Although we do not have sufficient information or modeling available to provide monetized estimates for this rulemaking, we include a qualitative assessment o f the effects associated with these air pollutants in the RIA for this proposed rule, which is available in the docket. The costs of this proposed rulemaking are estimated to be $216 million (2008$) in the implementation year and the monetized benefits are $240 million to $580 million (2008$, 3 percent discount rate) for that same year. The benefits at a 7 percent discount rate are $210 million to $520 billion (2008$). Thus, net benefits of this rulemaking are estimated at $19 million to $360 million (200 8$, 3 percent discount rate) and $

- 2.4 million to $310 million (2008$, 7 percent discount rate). A summary of the monetized benefits, social costs and net benefits at discount rates of 3 percent and 7 & is in Table 17 of this preamble.155

It is important to note that the156 monetized benefits include many but not all health effects associated with PM 2.5 exposure. 3 The methodology used to estimate social costs for one year in the multimarket model using surplus changes results in the same soc ial costs for both discount rates. For more information on the benefits analysis, please refer to the RIA for this rulemaking, which is available in the docket. VI. Relationship of the Proposed Action to Section 112(c)(6) of the CAA Section 112(c)(6) of the CAA requires EPA to identify categories of sources of seven specified pollutants to assure that sources accounting for not less than 90 percent of the aggregate emissions of each such pollutant are subject to standards under CA A Section 112(d)(2) or 112(d)(4). EPA has identified CISWI as a source category that emits five of the seven CAA Section 112(c)(6) pollutants: polycyclic organic matter (POM), dioxin s , furans, Hg and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) (The POM emitted by C ISWI is composed of seven polyaromatic hydrocarbons (7

- PAH), 16 polyaromatic hydrocarbons (16

- PAH) and extractable organic matter (EOM)). In the Federal Register notice Source Category Listing for Section 112(d)(2) Rulemaking Pursuant to Section 112(c)(6) Requirements , 63 FR 17838, 17849, Table 2 (1998), EPA identified source categories “subject to regulation” for157 purposes of CAA Section 112(c)(6) with respect to the CAA Section 112(c)(6) pollutants that CISWI emit. CISWI are solid waste incineration unit s currently regulated under CAA Section 129 and this proposal would subject additional sources to regulation under CAA Section 129. For purposes of CAA Section 112(c)(6), EPA has determined that standards promulgated under CAA Section 129 are substantivel y equivalent to those promulgated under CAA Section 112(d). (See Id . at 17845; see also 62 FR 33625, 33632 (1997)). As discussed in more detail below, the CAA Section 129 standards effectively control emissions of the five identified CAA Section 112(c)(6 ) pollutants. Further, since CAA Section 129(h)(2) precludes EPA from regulating these substantial sources of the five identified CAA Section 112(c)(6) pollutants under CAA Section 112(d), EPA cannot further regulate these emissions under that CAA Section . As a result, EPA considers emissions of these five pollutants from CISWI “subject to standards” for purposes of CAA Section 112(c)(6). As required by the statute, the CAA Section 129 CISWI standards include numeric emission limitations for the nine poll utants specified in CAA Section 129(a)(4). The combination of waste segregation, good combustion practices and add

- on air pollution control equipment (sorbent158 injection, fabric filters, wet scrubbers, or combinations thereof) effectively reduces emissions of the pollutants for which emission limits are required under CAA Section 129: Hg, dioxin s , furans, Cd, Pb, PM, SO 2 , HCl, CO and
NO x . Thus, the standards specifically require reduction in
emissions of three of the CAA Section 112(c)(6) pollutants: dio xin s , furans and Hg. As explained below, the air pollution controls necessary to comply with the requirements of the CISWI standards also effectively reduce emissions of the following CAA Section 112(c)(6) pollutants that are emitted from CISWI: POM and P CBs. Although the CAA Section 129 CISWI standards do not have separate, specific emissions standards for POM and PCBs , emissions of these two CAA Section 112(c)(6) pollutants are effectively controlled by the same control measures used to comply with the numerical emissions limits for the pollutants enumerated in CAA Section 129(a)(4). Specifically, as by

products of combustion, the formation of POM and PCBs is effectively reduced by the combustion and post

- combustion practices required to comply with the CAA Section 129 standards. Any POM and PCBs that do form during combustion are further controlled by the various post

- combustion CISWI controls. The add

- on PM control systems (either fabric filter or wet scrubber) and activated carbon injection159

further reduce emissions of these organic pollutants and also reduce Hg emissions, as is evidenced by performance data for MWCs and another similar source category, HMIWI. Specifically, the post

- MACT compliance tests at currently operating HMIWI that were also op erational at the time of promulgation of the 1997 HMIWI MACT standards show that, for those units, the regulations reduced Hg emissions by about 60 percent and reduced dioxin and furans emissions by about 80 percent from pre

- MACT levels. Moreover, similar controls have been demonstrated to effectively reduce emissions of POM and PCBs from MWCs. It is, therefore, reasonable to conclude that POM and PCB emissions would be substantially controlled at all CISWI units meeting the proposed emission limits. Thu s, while the proposed rule does not identify specific numerical limits for POM and PCB, emissions of those pollutants are, for the reasons noted above, nonetheless “subject to regulation” for purposes of CAA Section 112(c)(6) of the CAA. VII. Statutory an d Executive Order Reviews
A. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory Planning and Review Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735; October 4, 1993), this action is a “significant regulatory action” because it will have an annual effect on the economy of $100 million or more. Accordingly, EPA submitted this160
action to the OMB for review under Executive Order 12866, and any changes made in response to OMB recommendations have been documented in the docket for this action. For information regarding the costs and benefits of this rule, please refer to Table 17 of this preamble.
B. Paperwork Reduction Act The information collection requirements in this rule have been submitted for approval to the OMB under the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq . The I CR documents prepared by EPA have been assigned EPA ICR number 2384.01 for subpart CCCC, 40 CFR part 60 and 2385.01 for subpart DDDD, 40 CFR part 60. The requirements in this proposed action result in industry recordkeeping and reporting burden associated with review of the amendments for all CISWI, and inspections of scrubbers, fabric filters and other air pollution control devices that may be used to meet the emission limits for all CISWI. Ongoing parametric monitoring requirements for ESPs, SNCR, activa ted carbon injection are also required of all CISWI units. Stack testing and development of new parameter limits would be necessary for CISWI that need to make performance improvements in order to meet the proposed emission limits and for CISWI that, prio r to this proposed action, have not been required to demonstrate compliance161 with certain pollutants. Visual emissions tests would be required for all subcategories except waste
- burning kilns on an annual basis. Energy recovery units would be required to continuously monitor opacity, and units larger than 250 MMBtu/hr would be required to monitor PM emissions using a PM CEMS. Waste
- burning k ilns would be required to continuously monitor Hg emissions using a Hg CEMS. Any new CISWI would also be required t o continuously monitor CO emissions. The annual average burden associated with recordkeeping and reporting requirements for the EG over the first three years following promulgation of this proposed action is estimated to be 12,591 hours at a total annual labor cost of $ 498,230 . The total annualized capital/startup costs and operation and maintenance (O&M) costs associated with the EG monitoring requirements, EPA Method 22 of appendix A

- 7 testing, initial stack testing, storage of data and reports and phot ocopying and postage over the three

- year period of the ICR are estimated at $ 25,509,408 and $ 8,503,136 per year, respectively. (The annual inspection costs are included under the recordkeeping and reporting labor costs.) The annual average burden associa ted with the NSPS over the first three years following promulgation of this proposed action is estimated to be 0 hours at a total annual labor cost of162 $0, since we anticipate no new CISWI units to be constructed. Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b) An Ag ency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to a collection of information unless it currently displays a valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA’s regulations are listed in 40 CFR part 9. To comment on the E PA’s need for this information, the accuracy of the provided burden estimates and any suggested methods for minimizing respondent burden, EPA has established a public docket for this action, which includes these ICR documents, under Docket ID No. EPA

- HQ

- OA R
- 2003

- 0119. Submit any comments related to the ICR documents for this proposed action to EPA and OMB. See ADDRESSES section at the beginning of this action for where to submit comments to EPA. Send comments to OMB at the Office of Information and Regul atory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget, 725 17 th Street, NW, Washington, DC 20503, Attention: Desk Office for EPA. Since OMB is required to make a decision concerning the ICR between 30 and 60 days after [INSERT DATE OF PUBLICATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER ], a comment to OMB is best assured of having its full effect if OMB receives it by [INSERT DATE 30 DAYS AFTER DATE OF
PUBLICATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER ]. The final rule will163 respond to any OMB or public comments on the information collection re quirements contained in this proposal.
C. Regulatory Flexibility Act The Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) generally requires an agency to prepare a regulatory flexibility analysis of any rule subject to notice and comment rulemaking requirements under the Administrative Procedures Act or any other statute unless the Agency certifies that the proposed action will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. Small entities include small businesses, small government
organ izations and small government jurisdictions. For purposes of assessing the impacts of this proposed action on small entities, small entity is defined as: (1) A small business as defined by the Small Business Administration’s (SBA) regulations at 13 CFR 12 1.201; (2) a small governmental jurisdiction that is a government of a city, county, town, school district or special district with a population of less than 50,000; or (3) a small organization that is any not

- for

- profit enterprise that is independently ow ned and operated and is not dominant in its field. After considering the economic impacts of this proposed rule on small entities, I certify that this action164 will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. The small entities directly regulated by this proposed rule are facilities engaged in industrial or commercial operations, such as paper and paperboard manufacturing and utility providers.
T he average cost

- to
- sales ratios for small companies are below 1 percent . The median ratios are less than 0.1 percent . Only one entity has a sales test that exceeds 3 percent and that unit provides wood

- residue, natural gas

fired cogeneration (NAICS 221)
. Although this proposed rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities, EPA nonetheless has tried to reduce the impact of this rule on small entities. We continue to be interested in the potential impacts of the proposed rule on small entities and welcome comments on issues related to such impacts. We invite comments on all aspects of the proposal and its impacts on small entities.
D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA), 2 U.S.C. 1531

- 1538, requires federal agencies, unless othe rwise prohibited by law, to assess the effects of their regulatory actions on state , local and tribal governments and the private sector. This rule contains a165 federal mandate that may result in expenditures of $100 million or more for state , local and tri bal governments, in the aggregate, or the private sector in any one year. Accordingly, EPA has prepared under Section 202 of the UMRA a written statement which is summarized below. 1. Statutory Authority As discussed previously in this preamble, t he statutory authority for the proposed rule is S ection 129 of the CAA. CAA Section 129 CISWI standards include numeric emissions limitations for the nine pollutants specified in CAA Section 129(a)(4)
. Section 129(a)(2) of the CAA directs EPA to develop standards based on MACT, which require existing and new major sources to control emissions of the nine pollutants
. In compliance with Section 205(a), we identified and considered a reasonable number of regulatory alternatives. The regulatory alter native upon which the rule is based is the least costly, most cost

- effective alternative to achieve the statutory requirements of CAA Section 129
. 2
. Social Costs and Benefits The RIA prepared for the proposed rule, including the EPA’s assessm ent of costs and benefits, is detailed in the “Regulatory Impact Analysis: Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources and Emission Guidelines for Existing166

Sources: Commercial and Industrial Solid Waste Incineration Units” in the docket. Based on estimated compliance costs on all sources associated with the proposed rule and the predicted change in prices and production in the affected industries, the estimated social costs of the proposed rule are $216 million (2008 dollars). In the year of full implementation (2015), EPA estimates the monetized PM 2.5 benefits of the proposed NSPS and E G are $240 million to $580 million and $210 million to $520 million, at 3 percent and 7 percent discount rates respectively. All estimates are in 2008$. Using al ternate relationships between PM 2.5 and premature mortality supplied by experts, higher and lower benefits estimates are plausible, but most of the expert

- based estimates fall between these estimates. The benefits from reducing other air pollutants have n ot been monetized in this analysis, including reducing 2 4 ,000 tons of CO, 5 6 0 tons of HCl, 6 tons of Pb, 5.4 tons of Cd , 280 pounds of Hg , and 230 grams of total dioxins and furans each year. In addition, ecosystem benefits and visibility benefits have no t been monetized in this analysis Exposure to CO can affect the cardiovascular system and the central nervous system. Emissions of NO x can transform into PM, which can result in fatalities and many167 respiratory problems (such as asthma or bronchitis); and
NO x can also transform into ozone causing several respiratory problems to affected populations. The net benefits for the NSPS and Emission Guidelines are $19 million to $360 million and $

- 2.4 million to $310 million, at 3 percent and 7 percent discount rat es respectively. All estimates are in 2008$. 3
. Future and Disproportionate Costs The UMRA requires that we estimate, where accurate estimation is reasonably feasible, future compliance costs imposed by the rule and any disproportionate budgetary effec ts. Our estimates of the future compliance costs of the proposed rule are discussed previously in this preamble. We do not believe that there will be any disproportionate budgetary effects of the proposed rule on any particular areas of the country, stat e or local governments, types of communities (e.g., urban, rural), or particular industry segments.
4
. Effects on the National Economy The UMRA requires that we estimate the effect of the proposed rule on the national economy. To the extent feasibl e, we must estimate the effect on productivity, economic growth, full employment, creation of productive jobs and international competitiveness of the U.S. goods168

and services if we determine that accurate estimates are reasonably feasible and that such eff ect is relevant and material. The nationwide economic impact of the proposed rule is presented in the “Regulatory Impact Analysis : Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources and Emission Guidelines for Existing Sources: Commercial and Industrial Solid Waste Incineration Units ” in the docket. This analysis provides estimates of the effect of the proposed rule on most of the categories mentioned above. The results of the economic impact analysis were summarized previously in this preamble. 5
. Consultation with Government Officials The UMRA requires that we describe the extent of EPA’s prior consultation with affected state , local and tribal officials, summarize the officials’ comments or concerns and summarize our response to those comments or concerns. We have determined that the proposed rule contains no regulatory requirements that might significantly or uniquely affect small governments. Therefore, this rule is not subject to the requirements of Section 203 of the UMRA.
E. Executive Or der 13132: Federalism Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255; August 10, 1999), requires EPA to develop an accountable process to ensure “meaningful and timely input by state and local officials169 in the development of regulatory policies that have federalism i mplications.” “Policies that have federalism implications” are defined in the Executive Order to include regulations that have “substantial direct effects on the
state s, on the relationship between the national government and the state s, or on the distrib ution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government.” This proposed rule does not have federalism implications. It will not have substantial direct effects on the state s, on the relationship between the national government and th e state s, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government, as specified in Executive Order 13132. This proposed action will not impose substantial direct compliance costs on state or local governments and will n ot preempt state law . Thus, Executive Order 13132 does not apply to this rule. In the spirit of Executive Order 13132 and consistent with EPA policy to promote communications between EPA and
state and local governments, EPA specifically solicits
comment o n this proposed rule from state and local officials.
F. Executive Order 13175: Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments170 This action does not have tribal implications, as specified in Executive Order 13175, (65 FR 67249; November 9, 20 00). EPA is not aware of any CISWI in Indian country or owned or operated by Indian tribal governments. Thus, Executive Order 13175 does not apply to this action. However, EPA specifically solicits additional comment on this proposed action from tribal o fficials and will conduct outreach to tribal environmental professionals in the proposal period via the National Tribal Air Association and other mechanisms.
G. Executive Order 13045: Protection of Children from Environmental Health and Safety Risks
EPA interprets Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885; April 23, 1997) as applying to those regulatory actions that concern health or safety risks, such that the analysis required under Section 5

- 501 of the Order has the potential to influence the regulation. Thi s proposed action is not subject to Executive Order 13045 because it is based solely on technology performance.
H. Executive Order 13211: Actions that Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution or Use This action is not a “significant energy acti on” as defined in Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355; May 22, 2001) because it is not likely to have a significant171 adverse effect on the supply, distribution, or use of
energy. EPA estimates that the requirements in this proposed action would cause most C ISWI in the energy recovery unit and waste
- burning kiln subcategories to modify existing air pollution control devices (e.g., increase the horsepower of their wet scrubbers) or install and operate new control devices, resulting in approximately 271,455 meg awatt
- hours per year of additional electricity being used. EPA estimates that many owners of CISWI units in the incinerator, burn

- off oven and small, remote incinerator subcategories may stop operating CISWI units and use alternative waste disposal method s, thereby not requiring additional energy input for operation of control devices. Given the negligible change in energy consumption resulting from this proposed action, EPA does not expect any significant price increase for any energy type. The cost of e nergy distribution should not be affected by this proposed action at all since the action would not affect energy distribution facilities. We also expect that any impacts on the import of foreign energy supplies, or any other adverse outcomes that may occ ur with regards to energy supplies would not be significant. We, therefore, conclude that if there were to be any adverse energy172 effects associated with this proposed action, they would be minimal.
I. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act
Sec tion 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (“NTTAA”), Public Law No. 104

- 113 (15 U.S.C. 272 note) directs EPA to use voluntary consensus standards (VCS) in its regulatory activities unless to do so would be inconsistent with applicable law or otherwise impractical. Voluntary consensus standards are technical standards (e.g., materials specifications, test methods, sampling procedures and business practices) that are developed or adopted by VCS bodies. NTTAA directs EPA to
p rovide Congress, through OMB, explanations when the Agency decides not to use available and applicable VCS. EPA conducted searches for the Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources and Emission Guidelines for Existing Sources: Commercial and Ind ustrial Solid Waste Incineration units through Enhanced NSSN Database managed by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). We also contacted VCS organizations and accessed and searched their databases. This rulemaking involves technical standards . EPA has decided to use ASME PTC 19.10

- 1981, “Flue and Exhaust Gas Analyses,” for its manual methods of measuring the oxygen173 or carbon dioxide content of the exhaust gas. These parts of ASME PTC 19.10

- 1981 are acceptable alternatives to EPA Methods 3B, 6, 7 and 7C. This standard is available from the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 3 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10016

- 5990. Another VCS, ASTM D6735

- 01, “Standard Test Method for Measurement of Gaseous Chlorides and Fluorides from Mineral
Ca lcining Exhaust Sources

— Impinger Method,” is an acceptable alternative to EPA Method 26A. Another VCS, ASTM D6784

- 02, “Standard Test Method for Elemental, Oxidized, Particle

- Bound and Total Mercury in Flue Gas Generated from Coal

- Fired Stationary Sources (Ontario Hydro Method)” is an acceptable alternative to EPA Method 29. During the search, if the title or abstract (if provided) of the VCS described technical sampling and analytical procedures that are similar to EPA’s reference method, EPA ordered a c opy of the standard and reviewed it as a potential equivalent method. All potential standards were reviewed to determine the practicality of the VCS for this rule. This review requires significant method validation data which meets the requirements of EP A Method 301 for accepting alternative methods or scientific, engineering and policy equivalence to procedures in EPA174 reference methods. The EPA may reconsider determinations of impracticality when additional information is available for particular VCS. The search identified 23 other VCS that were potentially applicable to this rule in lieu of EPA reference methods. After reviewing the available standards, EPA determined that 21 candidate VCS (ASTM D3154

Under 40 CFR 60.13(i) of the NSPS General Provisions, a source may apply to EPA for permission to use alternative test methods or alternative monitoring requirements in place of any required testing methods, performance175 specifications, or procedures in the final rule and any amendments. EPA welcomes comments on this aspect of the proposed rulemaking and specifically invites the p ublic to identify potentially

- applicable voluntary consensus standards and to explain why such standards should be used in this regulation.
J. Executive Order 12898: Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low

Income Populations Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994) establishes federal executive policy on environmental justice (EJ) . Its main provision directs federal agencies, to the greatest extent practicable and permitted by law, to make EJ part of their mission by identifying and addressing, as appropriate, disproportionately high and adverse human health or environmental effects of their programs, policies, and activities on minority populations , low

- income , and t ribal populations in the United St ates . Th is proposed action establishes national emission standards for new and existing CISWI . The EPA estimates that there are approximate ly 176 such units, including incinerators, burn

- off ovens, cement kilns and energy recovery units, covered by this rule. T he proposed rule176

will reduce emissions of all the listed HAP emitted from this source. This includes emissions of c admium (Cd), hydrogen c hloride (HCl), l ead (Pb), m ercury (Hg), and chlorinated dioxin/furans. Adverse health effects from these p ol lutants include cancer, irritation of the lungs, skin, and mucus membranes ; effects on the central nervous system, and damage to the kidneys), and acute health disorders
. The rule will also result in substantial reductions of criteria pollutants such as c arbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen o xides (NO x ), particulate m atter (PM), and
sulfur d ioxide (SO 2 ) . Sulfur dioxide and NO 2 are
precursors for the formation of PM 2.5 and ozone. Reducing
these emissions will reduce ozone and PM 2.5 formation and
associated healt h effects, such as adult premature mortality , c hronic and acute bronchitis, asthma, and other respiratory and cardiovascular diseases. ( Please refer to the RIA contained in the d ocket for this rulemaking
. )
Pursuant to E xecutive Order 12898 , EPA has under taken to determine the aggregate demographic makeup of the communities near affected sources. This analysis used “proximity

- to
- a - source” to identify the populations considered to be living near affected sources, such that they have notable exposures to cu rrent emissions from these177 sources. In this approach , EPA reviewed the distributions of different socio

- demographic groups in the locations of the expected emission reductions from this rule. The review identified those census blocks within a circular di stance of three miles of affected sources and determined the demographic and socio

- economic composition (e.g. race, income, education, etc) of these census blocks. Th e radius of three miles (or approximately five kilometers) has been used in other demogra phic analyses focused on areas around potential sources. 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 In addition, air modeling experience has shown that beyond three miles , the influence of an individual source of emissions can generally be considered to be small, both in absolute terms and relative to the influence of other sources ( assuming there are other sources in the area, as is typical in urban areas). EPA’s demographic analysis has shown that t hese areas tend to

- Americans, Hispanics and “Other and Multi

- racial” populations, and higher proportions of families with incomes below the poverty
level. 18
Based on the fact that the rule does not allow emission increases, the EPA has determined that the
pro posed rule will not have disproportionately high and adverse human health or environmental effects on minority, low

- income, or t ribal p opulations. However, to the extent that any minority, low income, or t ribal subpopulation is disproportionately impacted by the current emissions as a result of the proximity of their homes to these sources, that subpopulation also stands to see increased environmental and health benefit from the emissions reductions called for by this rule. EPA defines “Environmental Just ice” to include meaningful involvement of all people regardless of race, color, national origin, or income with respect to the development, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and polices. To promote meaningful involvement, EPA has developed a communication

.179

and outreach strategy to ensure that interested communities have access to this proposed rule, are aware of its content, and have an opportunity to comment during the comment period . During the comment period, EPA will
p ublicize the rulemaking via EJ newsletters, t ribal newsletters, EJ listservs, and the internet, including the Office of Policy, Economics, and Innovation’s (OPEI) Rulemaking Gateway website ( http:/ /yosemite.epa.gov/opei/RuleGate.nsf/ ).

(1) If a force majeure is about to occur, occurs, or has occurred for which the affected owner or operator intends to assert a claim of force majeure, the owner or operator must notify the Administrator, in writing as soon as practicable fol lowing the date the owner or operator first knew, or through due diligence should have known that the event may cause or caused a delay in testing beyond the regulatory deadline, but the notification must occur before the performance test deadline unless t he initial force majeure or a subsequent force majeure event delays the notice, and in such cases, the notification must occur as soon as practicable. (2) The owner or operator must provide to the Administrator a written description of the force majeure

e vent and a rationale for attributing the delay in testing beyond the regulatory deadline to the force majeure; describe the measures taken or to be taken to minimize the delay; and identify a date by which the owner or operator proposes to conduct the perf ormance test. The performance test must be conducted as soon as practicable after the force majeure occurs.192 (3) The decision as to whether or not to grant an extension to the performance test deadline is solely within the discretion of the Administrator. The Administrator will notify the owner or operator in writing of approval or disapproval of the request for an extension as soon as practicable. (4) Until an extension of the performance test deadline has been approved by the Administrator under
paragr aphs (i)(1), (2), and (3) of this section, the owner or operator of the affected facility remains strictly subject to the requirements of this part.
