Abstract: EPA is revising the regulatory finding issued in Dec 2000 and based on that revision, removing coal-and oil-fired electric utility steam generating units from the CAA section 112(c) source category list. The December 2000 finding focused primarily on mercury (Hg) emissions from coal-fired Utility Units. In light of the finding, EPA in December 2000 announced its decision to list coal- and oil-fired Utility Units on the section 112(c) list of regulated source categories. In January 2004, EPA proposed revising the December 2000 appropriate and necessary finding and, based on that revision, removing coal- and oil-fired Utility Units from the section 112(c) list. |
