Hello [firstname],
EPA is planning on extending the compliance date for facilities to comply with the amendments to the Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure rule (SPCC). The extension will change the compliance date from November 10, 2010 to November 10, 2011.
NORA's Jack Waggener is reporting from DC that the extension has passed through the Office of Management and Budget and it should be published in the Federal Register soon.
For additional information, visit http://www.epa.gov/emergencies/content/spcc/compliance_dates.htm
NORA will be addressing this issue further at the 2010 NORA Conference in Arizona (November 10-13).
Thank you for being a member of NORA. We will let members know of any updates to this issue.
Scott D. Parker, NORA
