Abstract:

The RACT/BACT/LAER Clearinghouse (RBLC) helps permit applicants and reviewers make pollution prevention and control technology decisions for stationary air pollution sources. Process categories include: combustion; internal combustion; waste disposal; wood products industry; etc.

          The RBLC contains two sets of databases:

          The RBLC Databases: Contain transient, current, and historical source-specific technology determinations. Over 3100 determinations from 50 states and three territories covering over 200 pollutants are included.

          The Federal Regulation Database: The RBLC regulations data base contains summaries of regulations that have been enacted at the federal level in response to the Clean Air Act and Amendments. The regulation data base is organized so that a rule is associated with the type of facility whose pollutant emissions are governed by the regulation. Information at the regulation/affected facility level includes rule status, statutory basis for emission limits, proposed and effective dates, references to supporting technical documentation, and explanatory notes.

          Both database sets have query modules that allow menu based searching, downloading of user-selected information, and data viewing capabilities.
