NSPS under the CAA dictate the level of pollution that a new stationary source may produce. These standards are authorized by Section 111 of the CAA and the regulations are published in 40 CFR Part 60. An NSPS has been established for a number of individual industrial or source categories.
Examples:
- Landfills
- Boilers
- Petroleum refineries
- Turbines
- Wastewater (air emissions from wastewater treatment systems)
