7 | 3 | other facilities | This rule is only regulating CAGMs, but other facilities may be to blame for metals pollution in these areas. | ask Brian Boling | |||
9 | 5 | 500 lb/year | DEQ should lower the applicability threshold of the rule so that all facilities making at least 500 lbs per year of HAP-containing glass are regulated. | ||||
10 | 6 | all metals | The rule should regulate all heavy metals or all hazardous air pollutants (HAP), not just arsenic, cadmium, chromium, lead, manganese and nickel. | adding cobalt and selenium. Add uranium too? | |||
20 | 16 | health-based applicability | DEQ should base the applicability threshold on the amount of metals used (lbs/year) and their relative health risks, rather than on the amount of glass. Some glass contains concentrated HAP and other recipes are very dilute. Also, some HAP like hexavalent chromium are more dangerous than others. | Al Hooton | |||
21 | 17 | don't apply to glass users | Because of the way that 'melt' and 'furnace' are used in the rule, it may apply to some art glass users that are remelting glass rather than making it from powdered raw materials. | Chris Mini | |||
