EPA is proposing minor amendments to the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Chemical Recovery Combustion Sources at Kraft, Soda, Sulfite, and Stand-Alone Semichemical Pulp Mills and to the New Source Performance Standards for Kraft Pulp Mills. The proposed amendments provide flexibility for monitoring requirements and improved regulatory clarity. These minor amendments are proposed to go into effect immediately upon promulgation.
