United States Code U.S. Code: Title 42 - THE PUBLIC HEALTH AND WELFARE
Title 40 published on 09-Jun-2018 05:24
The following are ALL rules, proposed rules, and notices (chronologically) published in the Federal Register relating to 40 CFR Part 87 after this date.
2016-12-30; vol. 81 # 251 - Friday, December 30, 2016 81 FR 96413 - Reconsideration of Finding That Greenhouse Gas Emissions From Aircraft Cause or Contribute to Air Pollution That May Reasonably Be Anticipated To Endanger Public Health and Welfare
GPO FDSys XML | Text Additional Documents ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY Notice of final action denying petition for reconsideration. The EPA took final action to deny the petition for reconsideration on December 21, 2016. 40 CFR Parts 87 and 1068 Summary This action provides notice that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator, Gina McCarthy, denied a petition for reconsideration of the final Finding that Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Aircraft Cause or Contribute to Air Pollution that May Reasonably Be Anticipated to Endanger Public Health and Welfare, published in the Federal Register on August 15, 2016.
2016-08-15; vol. 81 # 157 - Monday, August 15, 2016 81 FR 54422 - Finding That Greenhouse Gas Emissions From Aircraft Cause or Contribute to Air Pollution That May Reasonably Be Anticipated To Endanger Public Health and Welfare
GPO FDSys XML | Text Additional Documents ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY Final rule. These findings are effective on September 14, 2016. 40 CFR Parts 87 and 1068 Summary In this action, the Administrator finds that elevated concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere endanger the public health and welfare of current and future generations within the meaning of section 231(a)(2)(A) of the Clean Air Act (CAA, or Act). She makes this finding specifically with respect to the same six well-mixed greenhouse gases—carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), methane, nitrous oxide, hydrofluorocarbons, perfluorocarbons, and sulfur hexafluoride—that together were defined as the air pollution in the 2009 Endangerment Finding under section 202(a) of the CAA and that together constitute the primary cause of the climate change problem. The Administrator also finds that emissions of those six well-mixed greenhouse gases from certain classes of engines used in certain aircraft are contributing to the air pollution—the aggregate group of the same six greenhouse gases—that endangers public health and welfare under CAA section 231(a)(2)(A).
2015-07-29; vol. 80 # 145 - Wednesday, July 29, 2015 80 FR 45131 - Proposed Finding That Greenhouse Gas Emissions From Aircraft Cause or Contribute to Air Pollution That May Reasonably Be Anticipated To Endanger Public Health and Welfare and Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking; Notice of Updates to Public Hearing
GPO FDSys XML | Text Additional Documents ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY Updates to public hearing. The EPA will hold a public hearing on August 11, 2015 in Washington, DC starting at 10 a.m. local time. 40 CFR Parts 87 and 1068 Summary The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) published the Proposed Finding that Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Aircraft Cause or Contribute to Air Pollution that May Reasonably Be Anticipated to Endanger Public Health and Welfare and Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in the Federal Register on July 1, 2015. This action provides notice of three updates regarding the public hearing.
2015-07-01; vol. 80 # 126 - Wednesday, July 1, 2015 80 FR 37758 - Proposed Finding That Greenhouse Gas Emissions From Aircraft Cause or Contribute to Air Pollution That May Reasonably Be Anticipated To Endanger Public Health and Welfare and Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking
GPO FDSys XML | Text Additional Documents ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY Proposed rule and advance notice of proposed rulemaking. Comments. Comments must be received on or before August 31, 2015. Public Hearing. The EPA will hold a public hearing on August 11, 2015 in Washington, DC, at the William Jefferson Clinton East Building, Room 1153, 101 Constitution Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20004. If no one contacts the EPA requesting to speak at the hearing for this proposal by July 13, 2015 the public hearing will not take place and will be cancelled with no further notice. Speakers should contact Ms. JoNell Iffland (see FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT ) to request to speak at the hearing. The last day to pre-register in advance to speak at the hearing will be August 6, 2015. The hearing will start at 10:00 a.m. local time and continue until everyone has had a chance to speak. Requests to speak will be taken the day of the hearing at the hearing registration desk, although preferences on speaking times may not be able to be fulfilled. If you require the service of a translator or special accommodations such as audio description, please let us know at the time of registration. For further information on the public hearing or to register to speak at the hearing, please see section I.B below or go to http://www.epa.gov/otaq/aviation.htm . 40 CFR Parts 87 and 1068 Summary In this action, the Administrator is proposing to determine that greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere endanger the public health and welfare of current and future generations within the meaning of section 231(a) of the Clean Air Act. She proposes to make this finding specifically with respect to the same six well-mixed greenhouse gases (GHGs)—carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, hydrofluorocarbons, perfluorocarbons, and sulfur hexafluoride—that together were defined as the air pollution in the 2009 Endangerment Finding under section 202(a) of the Clean Air Act and that together constitute the primary cause of the climate change problem. The Administrator is also proposing to find that greenhouse gas emissions from certain classes of engines used in aircraft are contributing to air pollution—the mix of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere—that endangers public health and welfare under section 231(a) of the Clean Air Act. Concurrent with these proposed findings, the EPA is issuing an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to provide an overview of and seek input on a variety of issues related to setting an international CO 2 standard for aircraft at the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), ICAO's progress in establishing global aircraft standards that achieve meaningful reductions in CO 2 emissions, and (provided the EPA promulgates final endangerment and cause and contribute findings for aircraft engine GHG emissions) the potential use of section 231 of the Clean Air Act to adopt and implement corresponding aircraft engine GHG emission standards domestically, ensuring transparency and the opportunity for public comment.
2012-10-31; vol. 77 # 211 - Wednesday, October 31, 2012 77 FR 65824 - Control of Air Pollution From Aircraft and Aircraft Engines; Emission Standards and Test Procedures
GPO FDSys XML | Text Additional Documents ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY 40 CFR Parts 87 Summary
2012-06-18; vol. 77 # 117 - Monday, June 18, 2012 77 FR 36342 - Control of Air Pollution From Aircraft and Aircraft Engines; Emission Standards and Test Procedures
GPO FDSys XML | Text Additional Documents ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY Final rule. These final rules are effective on July 18, 2012. The incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in this regulation is approved by the Director of the Federal Register as of July 18, 2012. 40 CFR Parts 87 and 1068 Summary EPA is adopting several new aircraft engine emission standards for oxides of nitrogen (NO X ), compliance flexibilities, and other regulatory requirements for aircraft turbofan or turbojet engines with rated thrusts greater than 26.7 kilonewtons (kN). We also are adopting certain other requirements for gas turbine engines that are subject to exhaust emission standards as follows. First, we are clarifying when the emission characteristics of a new turbofan or turbojet engine model have become different enough from its existing parent engine design that it must conform to the most current emission standards. Second, we are establishing a new reporting requirement for manufacturers of gas turbine engines that are subject to any exhaust emission standard to provide us with timely and consistent emission-related information. Third, and finally, we are establishing amendments to aircraft engine test and emissions measurement procedures. EPA actively participated in the United Nations' International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) proceedings in which most of these requirements were first developed. These regulatory requirements have largely been adopted or are actively under consideration by its member states. By adopting such similar standards, therefore, the United States maintains consistency with these international efforts.
