National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Gasoline Distribution Facilities and Standards of Performance for Bulk Gasoline Terminals Reconsideration

Environmental Protection Agency

Abstract

On May 8, 2024, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) published the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP): Gasoline Distribution Technology Reviews and New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) Review for Bulk Gasoline Terminals final rule ("2024 Final Rule"). The EPA is reconsidering various provisions of the 2024 Final Rule in this proposed rule, including the operating limits and continuous compliance requirements for air emission control devices, and the vapor tightness requirements for gasoline cargo tanks. The EPA is also reconsidering the modification criteria in the NSPS and proposing other technical corrections and clarifications. The EPA does not anticipate that this proposed action will impact volatile organic compound (VOC) or hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions generated by gasoline distribution facilities because the proposed amendments do not impact the stringency of the emission standards set by the 2024 Final Rule. As such, the EPA expects the proposed amendments will have no impact on air quality or overall human health. The EPA is not reopening any other aspect of the 2024 Final Rule and does not intend to respond to comments addressing any other issues or provisions not specifically addressed in this proposed rulemaking.
