TITLE 30.ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY

Part 1. TEXAS NATURAL RESOURCE CONSERVATION COMMISSION

Chapter 115. CONTROL OF AIR POLLUTION FROM VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUNDS

Subchapter H. HIGHLY-REACTIVE VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUNDS

2. FLARES

30 TAC §115.741

The Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission (commission) withdraws from consideration proposed new §115.741, Emission Specifications, which was published in the June 21, 2002, issue of the Texas Register (27 TexReg 5394). In the Proposed Rules section of this issue, the commission is proposing a new §115.741. As discussed in the new rule proposal, a computational error was discovered which inaccurately reflected an emission rate of 0.6 pounds per hour for all highly-reactive volatile organic compounds (VOC) from each flare at an account. In order to correct this inaccuracy, the commission is proposing to establish an emission rate of 7.4 pounds per hour for all highly-reactive VOC from each flare at an account. Therefore, any references in other rules to §115.741 are intended to reference the new proposed rule with the 7.4 pounds-per-hour limit. Please refer to the Proposed Rules section of this issue for the revised proposal.

Filed with the Office of the Secretary of State on June 28, 2002.
