Brief
Description
of
Action
Being
Taken:

The
final
action
announces
a
decision
to
take
no
further
action
to
revise
the
national
emission
standards.

4.
Core/
Key
Messages
for
this
Action:

T
Six
existing
magnetic
tape
manufacturing
facilities
are
subject
to
the
final
action.

T
The
EPA
worked
with
stakeholders
to
gather
information
for
the
residual
risk
analyses
and
technology
review.

T
The
EPA's
residual
risk
analyses
show
that
there
is
not
a
significant
health
risk
associated
with
any
of
the
facilities
currently
manufacturing
magnetic
tape
in
the
United
States.

T
The
EPA's
investigation
of
emission
control
technologies
available
to
the
magnetic
tape
manufacturing
industry
did
not
identify
any
significant
developments
in
practices,
processes,
or
control
technologies
since
promulgation
of
the
original
standard
in
1994.

T
Therefore,
EPA
believes
that
no
further
revisions
to
this
standard
are
needed.
