Protection of Stratospheric Ozone: The 2007 Critical Use Exemption From the Phaseout of Methyl Bromide
Document Number: 06-5969
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2006-07-06
Agency: Environmental Protection Agency
EPA is proposing an exemption to the phaseout of methyl bromide to meet the needs of 2007 critical uses. Specifically, EPA is proposing uses that will qualify for the 2007 critical use exemption and the amount of methyl bromide that may be produced, imported, or supplied from stocks for those uses in 2007. EPA is taking action under the authority of the Clean Air Act to reflect recent consensus Decisions taken by the Parties to the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer (Protocol) at the 17th Meeting of the Parties (MOP). EPA is seeking comment on the list of critical uses and on EPA's determination of the amounts of methyl bromide needed to satisfy those uses.
Standards of Performance for Stationary Combustion Turbines
Document Number: 06-5945
Type: Rule
Date: 2006-07-06
Agency: Environmental Protection Agency
This action promulgates standards of performance for new stationary combustion turbines in 40 CFR part 60, subpart KKKK. The standards reflect changes in nitrogen oxides (NOX) emission control technologies and turbine design since standards for these units were originally promulgated in 40 CFR part 60, subpart GG. The NOX and sulfur dioxide (SO2) standards have been established at a level which brings the emissions limits up to date with the performance of current combustion turbines.
