87. AQ-2023-002-RULE 326 (STEELMAKING OPERATIONS: ELECTRIC ARC FURNACES) Set a public hearing, as required by Arizona Revised Statutes (A.R.S.) § 49-479(b), for September 25, 2024, at 9:30 a.m. to solicit comments on the creation of Maricopa County Air Pollution Control Regulations, Rule 326 (Steelmaking Operations: Electric Arc Furnaces) and the associated proposed revision to the Arizona State Implementation Plan (SIP). Following the public hearing, the Board is requested to adopt the new rule and to approve submission of the new rule as a revision to the Arizona SIP. The purpose of Rule 326 is to limit volatile organic compounds (VOC) and nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions from steelmaking operations using electric arc furnaces (EAF). The Maricopa County Air Quality Department is proposing to create Rule 326 to establish reasonably available control technology (RACT) controls for VOC and NOx emissions from steelmaking operations that utilize EAFs to melt scrap steel. This rulemaking is required to comply with Clean Air Act RACT requirements. (C-85-25-009-X-00)
