On Friday, July 7, 2023, EPN submitted comments on proposed amendments to the New Source Performance Standards and to the Hazardous Organic NESHAP or “HON” for the Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry (SOCMI), and the NESHAP applying to the Group I and II Polymers and Resins Industries. The proposed regulation, with its combination of standards and a fenceline monitoring program, reflects an important step in reducing human health risks associated with the subject facilities. We support these actions and urge EPA to continue to find ways to further reduce the risks from these facilities.
