New national standard lead-acid battery requirements
This rule establishes standards of performance which limit atmospheric emissions of lead from new, modified, and reconstructed facilities at lead-acid battery plants.
FAQs about New national standard lead-acid battery requirements
When did lead acid batteries become a source performance standard?
Lead acid batteries were first established as a performance standard on January 14, 1980. New source performance standards were first proposed in 40 CFR part 60, subpart KK for the Lead Acid Battery Manufacturing source category on this date ( 45 FR 2790 ). The EPA proposed lead emission limits based on fabric filters with 99 percent efficiency for grid casting and lead reclamation operations.
How many lead acid battery manufacturing plants are subject to NSPS?
1. NSPS The EPA has found through the BSER review for this source category that there are 40 existing lead acid battery manufacturing facilities subject to the NSPS for Lead-Acid Battery Manufacturing Plants at 40 CFR part 60, subpart KK.
What is a lead acid battery manufacturing source?
The lead acid battery manufacturing source category consists of facilities engaged in producing lead acid batteries. The EPA first promulgated new source performance standards for lead acid battery manufacturing on April 16, 1982.
Should lead acid battery manufacturers be required to perform performance tests?
The EPA is proposing to include in the Lead Acid Battery Manufacturing NSPS subpart KKa compliance provisions to require owners or operators of lead acid battery manufacturing affected sources to conduct performance tests once every 5 years.
What are the GACT standards for lead acid battery manufacturing?
The EPA also set GACT standards for the lead acid battery manufacturing source category on July 16, 2007. These standards are codified in 40 CFR part 63, subpart PPPPPP, and are applicable to existing and new affected facilities.
When does NSPS apply to lead acid batteries?
The NSPS applies to all lead acid battery manufacturing plants constructed, reconstructed, or modified since January 14, 1980, if they produce or have the design capacity to produce batteries containing 5.9 megagrams (6.5 tons) or more of lead in one day.
