Form #: 08-007 Applications and Forms Revised: 2/1/14


The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) promulgated national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants for iron and steel foundries area sources on January 2, 2008 (73 Federal Register 225) located in 40 Code of Regulations (CFR) Part 63 Subpart ZZZZZ. This rule will require all sources meeting the applicability requirements within this category to meet hazardous air pollutant emission standards reflecting the application of the generally available control technology (GACT).

You may be subject to this subpart if you own or operate an iron and steel foundry facility at an area source of hazardous air pollutants (HAP). An area source is a facility that has the potential to emit <10 tons per year (TPY) of individual hazardous air pollutants (HAP) or 25 TPY of combined HAP. An iron and steel foundry is defined as a facility or a portion of a facility that melts scrap, ingot, and/or other forms of iron and/or steel and pours the resulting molten metal into molds to produce final or near final shape products for introduction into commerce.
