The
Plywood
and
Composite
Wood
Products
MACT
will
be
signed
by
the
EPA
Administrator
by
27
Feb
2004.
It
will
published
in
the
Federal
Register
within
a
couple
of
months
after
the
signature
date.

The
requirement
for
OSB
presses
is
similar
to
what
was
proposed,
although
there
are
some
changes.

The
biggest
rule
change
from
the
proposal
is
that
we
intend
to
create
a
lowrisk
subcategory
and
delist
it.
Facilities
that
can
demonstrate
they
are
low­
risk
could
be
part
of
the
subcategory
and
not
subject
to
the
MACT
requirements.

I
will
be
at
a
public
information
meeting
in
about
a
week
for
a
draft
Title
V
permit
for
an
OSB
facility
in
Minnesota.

We've
talked
about
the
upcoming
MACT
previously
in
the
community.
Can
you
tell
me
whether
this
MACT
is
still
scheduled
to
be
promulgated
in
March?
If
not,
do
you
know
when
it
will
be
promulgated?
Will
the
final
rule
be
similar
to
the
proposed
MACT,
especially
in
regards
to
OSB
press
emissions?

I'd
appreciate
any
info
you
can
provide.

Thanks!
