Industrial/Commercial/Institutional Boilers
and Process Heaters NESHAP Summary

On June 8, 2007 the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit vacated and remanded the Boilers rule.  This means the rule is no longer in affect for existing sources, MACT Hammer Provisions can apply and EPA has to create a new rule. The following states have issued some guidance.  Contact your own permitting authority for further information.

Georgia      Oklahoma        Nebraska      Mississippi      Louisiana
