The East Michigan Chapter of the Air & Waste Management Association

Invites you to our October Workshop

Sponsored by Barr Engineering, Ann Arbor

 

Understanding the Industrial Boiler MACT Standards

The Industrial Boiler MACT/GACT regulations have been finalized, and though some issues are still being litigated, it appears that the rules are in their final form. These rules affect both area and major sources of air toxics and include emission limitations, testing and monitoring, as well as work practices like tune-ups and energy assessments for boilers and process heaters.  Area sources have only until March 21, 2014, to comply, while major sources have until January 31, 2016. 

Kim Alfonsi and Lillian Woolley of Barr Engineering will provide an overview of the rules. Kathryn Cunningham of Consumers Energy will offer tips for developing an implementation plan and offer a case study from her work at company power plants and compressor stations.  

Space is limited so pre-registration is required. The cost of the workshop is $25 (AWMA members) and $30 (non members) and includes morning refreshments. Registration is now open here.
