Biomass Thermal Energy Council Posts Comments for EPA

Biomass Thermal Energy Council
7/16/2010

On June 4, 2010, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released a Proposed Rule for Area Source Boilers that threatens to severely curtail the future growth of the biomass thermal industry and place prohibitively expensive emissions requirements on existing equipment. EPA is inviting public comments on the proposed rule until August 3, 2010.

A working group of BTEC members has spent a considerable amount of effort in developing BTEC's public comments to the EPA. Those comments are now finalized and can be downloaded here:
