If you think you can escape the grasp of the regulatory monster, think
again. The following is a proposal for revisions to the emissions
standards for new wood heaters. ~ John Galt
When you read the proposal it is not
rocket science to figure out that this engulfs wood stoves and
fireplaces (aka, “masonry heaters”) putting the EPA squarely in the
middle of a prospective homeowners desire to build a truly energy
independent homestead from the ground up.
From the EPA website, link at
the title below:
a.k.a. NSPS Review for Residential Wood Heaters (subpart AAA, subpart QQQQ, and subpart RRRR)
RIN: 2060-AP93
Docket No.: EPA-HQ-OAR-2009-073
Current Phase: Pre-Proposal
Abstract:
EPA is revising the New Source Performance Standards (NSPS)
for new residential wood heaters.This action is necessary because it
updates the 1988 NSPS to reflect significant advancements in wood heater
technologies and design, broaden the range of residential wood heating
appliances covered by the regulation, and improve and streamline
implementation procedures.
What’s next? Regulations on emissions for campfires?

Can’t these idiots do anything without getting in everyone else’s business? Maybe we should get in their business and make sure ‘they’ are following the regulations they try to impose on us.

LEAVE US ALONE! IF YOU HAD A REAL JOB YOU WOULDN’T HAVE TIME TO BOTHER ANYONE ELSE!… PAIN IN THE ASS!”
