U.S. federal regulations

When owners wish to build a new source which will add a specific amount of a specific pollutant to an area that is innonattainment with respect to that pollutant, they must, under U.S. federal regulations, document a reduction of at least that amount of the pollutant from another source in the area. They can effect this reduction, or "offset," as it is called, in another plant they own in the area or can shut down that plant. However, if they do not own another such plant or do not wish to shut down or effect such reduction in a plant they own, they can seek the required reduction or offset from another owner. Thus, such offsets are marketable credits that can be bought, sold, traded, or stockpiled ("banked") as long as the state or local regulatory agency legitimizes, records, and certificates these transactions. The new source will still have to meet NSPS, BACT or MACT, and/or LAER standards, whichever are applicable. [Pg.415]

Regulations also have a strong impact on natural gas supply, demand and prices. Exploration for and development of natural gas historically have been secondary to oil because of the high costs of transportation, as well as a complex transportation and marketing system that allowed tor U.S.-federally regulated interstate gas pipelines hut essentially unregulated intrastate pipelines. The natural gas supply shortfalls in 1977 and 1978 resulted in The Natural... [Pg.506]

The use of labeled molecules is extremely difficult and costly, however, except for the simplest molecules. The synthesis of properly labeled compoimds requires special skills. U.S. Federal regulations make the use of radioactive isotopes most impractical, time-consuming, and expensive. The use of stable isotopes as labels is possible only in cormection with mass spectrometric detection, which is neither an easy nor an inexpensive proposition in liquid chromatography. For these reasons, the pulse methods have been limited to the elution of a pulse on a plateau (or step and pulse method) and are not yet quite popular in liquid chromatography. [Pg.129]

According to U.S. federal regulations, solid wastes must be classified as hazardous or non-hazardous. Hazardous wastes, due to their ignitability, corrosivity, reactivity, and/or toxicity, pose a substantial threat to human, plant, or animal life and must be treated onsite or nearsite by physical, chemical, thermal, or biological means before being put in containers and removed. Nonhazardous solid wastes may be placed in containers and removed to a landfill or, in some cases, incinerated. The annual cost of solid waste treatment and disposal varies widely. Typical costs are 0.02/lb of waste for nonhazardous dry or wet solids and 0.08/lb for hazardous dry or wet solids. [Pg.573]

In the United States, NIOSH conducts a program aimed to train and certify physicians in the use of the ILO Classification. The NIOSH B Reader Program was developed to comply with U.S. Federal regulations that provide specifications for the interpretation and classification of radiographs. The creation of this program was also stimulated by the findings of large interreader variability in the clas-... [Pg.95]
