EPA Regulation Navigation Tools

EPA has created Regulation Navigation (Reg Nav) tools to help owners and operators of facilities in certain industries determine the requirements of specific regulations. Reg Nav tools are online and interactive, and use the information entered to assess potential regulatory requirements. Reg Nav tools are available for the following regulations:

Navigation Tool: Portland Cement Manufacturing Industry

Regulation: Subpart LLL

Navigation Tool: Reciprocating Internal Combustion Engines (RICE)

Regulation:Subpart ZZZZ

Navigation Tool: Brick and Structural Clay Products Manufacturing

Regulation: Subpart JJJJJ

Navigation Tool: Stationary Compression and Spark Ignition Internal Combustion Engines

Regulation: Subpart IIII & Subpart JJJJ

Note: Regulation Navigation Tools open in a new window.

Guidance Materials

On September 19, 2012, EPA issued final rule amendments to the Hard and Decorative Chromium Electroplating and Chromium Anodizing Tanks MACT under EPA's residual risk and technology review. The rule sets more stringent emission limits, housekeeping practices, and other new requirements. The housekeeping practices come into effect March 19, 2013.
