Air Toxics

Bison Engineering tracks the development of air toxics requirements under the Federal Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990.  EPA has been slow to promulgate the National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP), which define Maximum Achievable Control Technology (MACT) for different industry categories.  For this reason, limited focus has been directed on air toxics requirements under the federal act.  However, for some industries, MACT requirements can be particularly challenging to achieve.  In addition, interim MACT requirements stemming from Section 112(g) of the Federal Clean Air Act may apply to new sources or to facility expansions or modifications.  Bison is ready to assist you in analyzing federal requirements and in determining a compliance strategy.
