The Environmental Protection Agency proposed a paint-stripping and surface-coating rule for companies using methylene chloride for paint-stripping or hazardous air pollutants for surface coating.

The proposed National Emission Standard Hazardous Air Pollutant rule could affect engine part manufacturers, vessel accessory manufacturers, boat trailer manufacturers, and any company that applies HAP surface coating to finish plastic or metal parts.

RIMTA will be hosting an Environmental and Safety Compliance Seminar on August 22, 2007 at the Newport Yachting Center.
