Plain English Guide to the Part 75 Rule

EPA has developed this plain-English guide as a “road map” to help interested parties navigate through the complex Part 75 continuous emission monitoring rule. This guide may be useful to people responsible for complying with the rule, regulatory agencies assessing compliance with the rule, and others who want a general understanding of the emissions monitoring approach used in EPA’s emissions trading programs. For more information about 40 CFR Part 75 and continuous emissions monitoring refer to the Emissions Monitoring and Reporting page.
