| Abstract |
The Refinery Sector Rule was published on December 1, 2015 with a compliance date of January 30, 2019 for the flare requirements. As refiners worked to come into compliance with the requirements, various items required clarification. The USEPA provided proposed changes to the rule on March 19, 2018 and this presentation will present and discuss the implications of those changes. Additionally, the USEPA has approved a broadly applicable alternative monitoring plan (AMP) for the use of mass spectrometers to determine the composition of flare vent gas. The presentation will present how the broadly applicable AMP fits into the existing monitoring requirements. |
