Understanding emission limits & control requirements
With the U.S. EPA finalizing amendments to the Aerospace NESHAP, Alta Environmental provides an overview of the amendment and tips to keep your facility in compliance.
On Dec. 7, 2015, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) finalized the residual risk and technology review (RTR) and published final amendments to the National Emission Standards for Aerospace Manufacturing and Rework Facilities, also known as the Aerospace NESHAP.
The amendments establish limitations for volatile organic compounds (VOC) and hazardous air pollutants (HAP) for specialty coatings; remove exemptions for periods of startup, shutdown, and malfunction (SSM); streamline certain recordkeeping requirements; and require electronic reporting of performance testing. The amendments will require many facilities to act quickly.
