New SO2 Limit for Seneca County Kilns
If you live near the Carmeuse Lime Maple Grove Facility in Seneca County, Ohio, the EPA is proposing to approve Ohio’s Director's Final Findings and Orders (DFFOs) that set a new sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions limit for the combined lime kiln stack. This action adds the DFFOs into Ohio’s State Implementation Plan (SIP) for the 2010 SO2 National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS).
