Letter to EPA on Boiler Pollution Rules
Resource Type:
Position StatementAuthor(s):
Rodney Sobin 
These letters respond to the Environmental Protection Agency’s proposed set of rules on air pollutant standards for commercial and industrial boilers. The two proposed rules, designated by emissions threshholds, include requirements for boiler tune-ups and, for larger facilities, energy assessments.
Our comments address the need for ongoing tune-ups in pollution reduction, provide information on facility energy assessments, and recommend using output-based standards, which calibrate emissions by the amount of heat produced rather than the amount of fuel consumed.
