Interim Report of the Committee on Changes in New Source Review Programs for Stationary Sources of Air Pollutants PDF
by National Research Council, Division on Earth and Life Studies, Board on Environmental Studies and Toxicology, Committee on Changes in New Source Review Programs for Stationary Sources of Air Pollutants
Description
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agencys New Source Review (NSR) programs are designed to help ensure that the construction or modification of factories, electric-generating facilities and other large stationary sources of pollutants will meet emissions criteria. EPA revised the programs in order to provide flexibility and allow for improved energy efficiency in American industry without damaging the environment. However, critics argue the revisions could slow progress in cleaning the nations air, potentially damaging human health. This interim report provides a synthesis of relevant background information and describes the approach the committee will use to assess the potential impact of the NSR revisions. Conclusions will be issued in a final report later this year.
