National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for
Source Categories: Gasoline Distribution (Stage I)
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule; correction.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This document makes clarifications and corrects errors in the
regulatory text of the final rule for National Emission Standards for
Gasoline Distribution Facilities (Bulk Gasoline Terminals and Pipeline
Breakout Stations) which appeared in the Federal Register on December
14, 1994 (59 FR 64303).
EFFECTIVE DATE: December 14, 1994.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For general and technical information
concerning the final rule, contact Mr. Stephen Shedd, Waste and
Chemical [[Page 32913]] Processes Group, Emission Standards Division
(MD-13), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Research Triangle Park,
North Carolina 27711; telephone (919) 541-5397. For information
regarding the test methods and procedures referenced in the rule,
contact Mr. Roy Huntley, Emission Inventory and Factors Group,
Emissions, Monitoring and Analysis Division (MD-14), U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency, Research Triangle Park, NC 27704; telephone (919)
541-1060.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On December 14, 1994 (59 FR 64303), the EPA
promulgated regulations requiring sources to achieve emission limits
reflecting application of the maximum achievable control technology
(MACT) consistent with section 112 of the Clean Air Act (Act). The
final rule regulates all hazardous air pollutants (HAP) identified in
the Act's list of 189 HAP that are emitted from new and existing bulk
gasoline terminals and pipeline breakout stations at plant sites that
are major sources of HAP. On February 8, 1995 (60 FR 7627), the Office
of the Federal Register made three corrections to the regulatory text
in the final rule. Today, four additional corrections are being made to
correct and clarify requirements in the National Emission Standards for
Gasoline Distribution Facilities (Bulk Gasoline Terminals and Pipeline
Breakout Stations).
The affected public has requested that the EPA clarify the date of
compliance for testing, reporting, and recordkeeping requirements for
reducing vapor leakage from gasoline cargo tanks (tank trucks and
railcars) loading at major source bulk gasoline terminals affected by
this rule. The regulatory text provided compliance dates for the
equipment that collects and processes the vapor displaced from cargo
tanks and inadvertently did not specify compliance dates for the cargo
tank leak testing, reporting, and recordkeeping requirements. The vapor
collection and processing equipment requirements in the final rule are
required to be met by December 15, 1997 (three years from the effective
date) for existing terminals and upon startup for new terminals. The
EPA intended that the rule require that all the components of this
vapor control system comply during the same compliance period,
including cargo tanks. Today's notice is to clarify that the compliance
date for both the cargo tank requirements and the other loading rack
vapor control requirements occur no later than December 15, 1997 at
existing terminals and upon startup at new terminals.
A typographical error was made on an equation in the regulatory
text that calculates the minimum allowable final headspace pressure for
the nitrogen pressure decay field test for cargo tanks. Additionally,
the location of one variable in the subject equation was incorrectly
specified. Today's notice corrects the typographical error in both the
equation and the location of one of the equation's variables.
Dated: June 15, 1995.

Acting Assistant Administrator for Air and Radiation.
The following corrections are being made in the regulatory text
for: National Emission Standards for Gasoline Distribution Facilities
(Bulk Gasoline Terminals and Pipeline Breakout Stations) published in
the Federal Register on December 14, 1994 (59 FR 64303).
Sec. 63.422 [Corrected]
1. In paragraph (b) of Sec. 63.422 on page 64320, column 1, remove
the second sentence ``Each owner or operator shall comply as
expeditiously as practicable, but no later than December 15, 1997 at
existing facilities and upon startup for new facilities.''
2. In Sec. 63.422 on page 64320, column 1, add a new paragraph (d)
as follows: ``(d) Each owner or operator shall meet the requirements in
all paragraphs of this section as expeditiously as practicable, but no
later than December 15, 1997 at existing facilities and upon startup
for new facilities.''
Sec. 63.425 [Corrected]
3. The equation in the paragraph (g)(3) of Sec. 63.425 on page
64321, column 3, is revised to read as follows:
* * * * *

4. The reference to Table 2 in paragraph (g)(3) of Sec. 63.425 on
page 64322, column 1, first two lines, is revised to read as follows:
``column of Table 2 of Sec. 63.425(e)(1), inches H2O.''
