Spark Iginition Engine NESHAPS Issued by EPA

Anne Blankenship reports that EPA has issued its final national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants for existing stationary spark ignition reciprocating internal combustion engines that either are located at area sources of hazardous air pollutant emissions or that have a site rating of less than or equal to 500 brake horsepower and are located at major sources

of hazardous air pollutant emissions. These types of engines are frequently used for natural gas compression on pipelines.

This final rule is effective on October 19, 2010. A summary of the final rule is attached. You can find the complete federal register publication of the final rule at this link: http://edocket.access.gpo.gov/2010/2010-20298.htm
