Effective June 12, 2003, EPA published final
regulations establishing Clean Water Act (CWA) technology-based
effluent limitations guidelines for the metal products and machinery
(MP&M) point source category. The metal products and machinery
point source category includes facilities that manufacture, rebuild,
or maintain metal products, parts, or machines. EPA is promulgating
limitations and standards only for facilities that directly discharge
wastewaters from oily operations in the Oily Wastes subcategory.
EPA expects compliance with this regulation to reduce the discharge
of conventional pollutants by approximately 500,000 pounds per
year. EPA estimates the annual cost of the rule will be $13.8
million (pre-tax $2001). EPA estimates that the annual benefits
of the rule to be approximately $1.5 million ($2001). Read
