rule— 
(i) that ensures that the best available 
technology limitations described in part 
414 of title 40, Code of Federal Regula-

(ii) modifying part 414 of title 40, 
Code of Federal Regulations (as in effect 
on the date of enactment of this Act), to 
ensure that the best available technology 
and new source performance standard re-
quirements under that part reflect updated 
best available technology and best available 
demonstrated control technology for all 
pollutants discharged by covered facilities 
that produce covered products, including 
pollutants of concern that are not regu-
lated on the date of enactment of this Act; 
and 
(iii) modifying sections 414.91(b), 
414.101(b), and 414.111(b) of title 40,

average, 0 milligrams per liter of plastic 
pellets or other plastic materials; and 
(ii) the requirement under clause (i) is 
reflected in all stormwater and other per-
mits issued by the Administrator and 
State-delegated programs under section 
402 of the Federal Water Pollution Con-
trol Act (33 U.S.C. 1342), in addition to 
other applicable limits and standards.
