Phasedown of Hydrofluorocarbons: Excluding Road and Intermodal Container Transport Refrigeration Units From the Hydrofluorocarbon Leak Repair Requirements

Yerel otomatik çeviri · Kaynağın orijinal dili

Özet

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing an exemption for road and intermodal container transport refrigeration units (TRUs) from the leak repair requirements established under the American Innovation and Manufacturing (AIM) Act. In the final rule "Phasedown of Hydrofluorocarbons: Management of Certain Hydrofluorocarbons and Substitutes Under the American Innovation and Manufacturing Act of 2020," the EPA established, among other provisions, leak repair requirements for refrigerant-containing appliances with a charge size of 15 pounds or more that contain a hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) or certain substitutes for HFCs. The EPA intended to exempt refrigerant-containing road and intermodal container TRUs from the leak repair requirements and is issuing this proposal to clarify the applicability of these requirements. The EPA is not proposing other amendments or taking comment on any other aspects of the 2024 "Phasedown of Hydrofluorocarbons: Management of Certain Hydrofluorocarbons and Substitutes Under the American Innovation and Manufacturing Act of 2020."

Phasedown of Hydrofluorocarbons: Allocation of 2026 Production and Consumption Allowances Set Aside for Metered Dose Inhalers

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is providing notice that the Agency allocated hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) set-aside allowances to general pool production and consumption allowance holders. For the calendar year 2026 allocation of HFC allowances, the EPA withheld a limited number of allowances from all general pool allowance holders. These allowances were set aside to accommodate unforeseen HFC needs for metered dose inhaler (MDI) end users. Entities that use HFCs as a propellant in MDIs had until April 30, 2026, to apply for these allowances, and the EPA received no applications. Accordingly, the EPA allocated all of the set-aside allowances pro rata amongst general pool allowance holders. This notice is announcing that allocation.

Air Plan Approval; New York; Athens Generating Plant

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is approving a revision to the State of New York's State Implementation Plan (SIP) for the ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) related to a Source-specific SIP (SSSIP) revision for the Athens Generating Plant, located at 9300 US Route 9 West, Athens, NY 12015 (Athens or the Facility). In accordance with the requirements for implementation of the 2008 and 2015 ozone NAAQS, the EPA finds that the control options in New York's SSSIP revision implement Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT) with respect to Oxides of Nitrogen (NO X ) emissions from the relevant Facility sources, which are identified as three combined-cycle Westinghouse model 501G combustion turbines with associated heat recovery steam generators and steam turbines (identified as Emission Units U-00001, U-00002, and U-00003 in the Facility's Title V permit and New York's submission). This action is being taken in accordance with the requirements of the Clean Air Act (CAA).
