regulations for engines used to generate electricity and to power
pumps and compressors would reduce emissions of ozone- and particle
pollution-forming nitrogen oxides (NOx). The proposed regulations
include two rules: New Source Performance Standards that would apply to
new stationary spark-ignition internal combustion engines and a
technology-based air toxics standard that would apply to certain
existing, new and reconstructed stationary reciprocating internal
combustion engines. The rules are expected to reduce NOx emissions by
66,000 tons per year by 2015. Both rules also would limit emissions of
carbon monoxide, non-methane hydrocarbons and air toxics.
The agency will
accept public comment on the proposed rules for 90 days after they are
published in the Federal Register. EPA must issue a final rule by Dec.
