Amendments to a proposed rule regarding organic liquid distribution have been published by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in the Federal Register November 24, 2005.

The proposed amendments are being made to clarify the applicability and control requirements for storage tanks and transfer racks, and amend the recordkeeping and reporting requirements for affected sources for which there are no control requirements.

On February 3, 2004, EPA issued national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants for organic liquids distribution (non-gasoline) (OLD NESHAP) under section 112 of the Clean Air Act (CAA).

In this action, EPA is proposing to amend portions of the OLD NESHAP in response to petitions for judicial review and for administrative reconsideration of the promulgated rule.

The proposed amendments do not reflect the full set of possible amendments EPA intends to propose in response to all of the issues raised in the petitions for review and reconsideration. EPA is separately developing a proposed response to some of those issues.
