(08/29/03) The organic liquid distribution rule applies to facilities such as terminals, chemical manufacturing facilities, petroleum refineries and crude oil pipeline pumping facilities that distribute organic liquids other than gasoline. This rule will reduce toxic air emissions by 3,500 tons per year and reduce volatile organic compound emissions by approximately 9,900 tons per year. It will affect approximately 380 existing facilities as well as new facilities. For more information, go to: https://www.epa.gov/ttn/oarpg/ramain.html.
