Many manufacturing facilities that are major sources of federal Hazardous Air Pollutants and are not subject to other Maximum Achievable Control Technology Standards (MACT) will be subject to the Miscellaneous Metal Parts Coating MACT.
The Miscellaneous Metal Parts Coating MACT requires subject facilities to submit an Initial Notification by January 2, 2005, which is one year after the MACT was finalized.
The information required to be included in the notification includes:
- The name and address of the owner or operator;
- The address (i.e., physical location) of the affected source;
- An identification of the relevant standard (for the Miscellaneous Metal Parts Coating MACT the relevant standard is 40 CFR 63 Subpart MMMM) , or other requirement, that is the basis of the notification and the source's compliance date (The Compliance date for the Miscellaneous Metal Parts Coating MACT is January 2, 2007);
- A brief description of the nature, size, design, and method of operation of the source and an identification of the types of emission points within the affected source subject to the relevant standard and types of hazardous air pollutants emitted; and
- A statement of whether the affected source is a major source or an area source.
The notification should be sent to your Department of Natural Resources air compliance engineer with a copy sent to the US Environmental Protection Agency at the address below:
