Comment submitted by Natural Resources Defense Council et al. (Part III)

AnonymousOpposeAdvocacy
Summary: A coalition of environmental and public health organizations argues that the EPA's proposal to allow construction of non-pollutant-emitting components before obtaining a preconstruction permit is illegal, arbitrary, and contrary to the Clean Air Act. They contend that such a rule would undermine the Best Available Control Technology (BACT) analysis by allowing facilities to physically and economically limit feasible emission control options before they are properly reviewed.
Part III of joint comments of Natural Resources Defense Council, Clean Air Task Force, Clean Air Council, Earthjustice, Environmental Defense Fund, Environmental Integrity Project, Kentucky Resources Council, Southern Environmental Law Center, Sierra Club, Environmental Protection Network, and Food & Water Watch.
