| Proposed Regulatory Changes: 6 NYCRR Subpart 225-2
DEC is proposing changes to current air regulation 6 NYCRR Subpart 225-2, Fuel Composition and Use – Waste Oil as a Fuel. This regulation applies to the use of waste oil — which is any used and/or reprocessed oil that has been re-refined, and does not contain chemical waste — to be burned as fuel. This includes engine, gear, or cutting oil; hydraulic or dielectric fluid, oil storage tank residue; and animal and vegetable oil.
DEC’s Division of Air Resources (DAR) is proposing an overhaul of this regulation by updating and simplifying the language and making it easier to implement. These amendments include, but are not limited to: changing the regulation title, eliminating outdated regulatory references, removing out-of date-work practices, and an overall updating and modernization the regulatory standards. Please see the attached document for a full list of the proposed changes and FAQs.
DAR will be holding a webinar on Tuesday, May 15th at 1 p.m. EST to explain these proposed changes.
