6 FAQs about [Lead-acid battery pollution emission standards]

When did lead acid batteries become a source performance standard?

Lead acid batteries were first established as a performance standard on January 14, 1980. New source performance standards were first proposed in 40 CFR part 60, subpart KK for the Lead Acid Battery Manufacturing source category on this date ( 45 FR 2790 ). The EPA proposed lead emission limits based on fabric filters with 99 percent efficiency for grid casting and lead reclamation operations.

What is the lead acid battery manufacturing area source category?

The Lead Acid Battery Manufacturing area source category was listed for regulation pursuant to section 112 (c) (3) for its contribution of the urban hazardous air pollutants (HAP) lead and cadmium.

Should lead acid battery manufacturers be required to perform performance tests?

The EPA is proposing to include in the Lead Acid Battery Manufacturing NSPS subpart KKa compliance provisions to require owners or operators of lead acid battery manufacturing affected sources to conduct performance tests once every 5 years.

What are the GACT standards for lead acid battery manufacturing?

The EPA also set GACT standards for the lead acid battery manufacturing source category on July 16, 2007. These standards are codified in 40 CFR part 63, subpart PPPPPP, and are applicable to existing and new affected facilities.

Can lead acid battery manufacturing plants control lead emissions with fabric filters?

Through the BSER review conducted for the source category, we found that since the promulgation of the NSPS in 1982, it has become feasible and common for lead acid battery manufacturing plants to control lead emissions from several processes with fabric filters.

What are the ICRS for lead acid battery manufacturing?

The ICRs (Integrated Compliance Reporting) for lead acid battery manufacturing are specific to the information collection associated with the Lead Acid Battery Manufacturing source category through the new 40 CFR part 60, subpart KKa and amendments to 40 CFR part 63, subpart PPPPPP.
