Taking PERC to the cleaners
EPA is proposing amendments to the Part 63, Subpart M NESHAP for dry cleaning facilities using the HAP perchloroethylene (PERC). [86 FR 73207] The amendments are part of the periodic review requirements of the CAA and are not likely to be considered a “major rule.” Consequently, the agency expects the effective date of the rule would also be its promulgation date. Specifically, EPA proposes to require dry cleaning machines at both major and area sources to have both refrigerated condensers and carbon adsorbers as secondary controls. Comment will be accepted through February 10, 2022 via Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2005-0155.

Air action agenda
EPA has unveiled its Fall 2021 regulatory agenda. The agency is planning reviews, revisions, and amendments to scores of stationary source regulations. A critical aspect of the CAA is the periodic review of source category standards. While much of what is on the agenda is the typical review, some items are resulting from lawsuits and court orders.

“In-person” input
We know some attendees prefer an “in-person” seminar, but the reality is…COVID still exerts control. Therefore, we’re holding limited “in-person” seminars in 2022. Why? Attendees are in class for about eight hours per day—for 4.5 days. This is different from an evening’s two-hour concert or other short-term event. Therefore, we will have COVID protocols in place so we can conduct the seminar safely for all. Call 303-526-2674 if you need more information.

RCRA public notices go digital
EPA is providing notice and inviting public comment until February 14, 2022 on allowing modern electronic alternatives for public notices in implementing RCRA. The agency intends to expand on the RCRA provisions requiring public notices be published in printed newspapers. Printed newspapers are not available in all communities and are not representative of how most people consume news. EPA recognizes a need for the modernization of this RCRA requirement. READ MORE .

Quick sign of success
A Quick Sign signature is a more efficient signature method for generators, transporters, and receiving facilities signing e-manifests. Signers using Quick Sign do not have to answer CROMERR challenge questions when signing manifests. In their monthly webinar series on e-manifests, EPA announced a 50% increase in the number of generators who registered for Quick Sign compared to the prior year. This is significant progress towards EPA’s goal for increased adoption of e-manifests. If you would like to attend the next webinar on January 26, 2022, at 2:00 pm ET, visit the e-Manifest webinar website.

Tribal waste journal
Indian tribes often maintain tribal sovereignty over waste management on tribal lands. In support of their efforts, EPA publishes the Tribal Waste Journal annually. The 2021 issue, Developing and Implementing Codes and Ordinances on Tribal Lands, discusses the importance and complexity of implementing waste codes (i.e., basic waste management regulations) in tribal communities. This issue also includes a step-by-step guide for tribal environmental professionals who want to develop a waste code for their tribe. The 2021 issue concludes with case studies of tribal communities successfully implementing waste codes. You can read the current and previous issues on EPA’s website.
