This compliance assistance manual serves as a road map of information on federal environmental programs and federal and state agency roles. Air, water, hazardous waste, accident prevention and release reporting are examples of requirements that might apply. This manual, like a road map, does not contain all the details of the federal and state statutes and regulations. Ethanol facility operators need to review the applicable statutes and regulations.
There are many federal environmental requirements that apply to ethanol production facilities. State environmental agencies may take the lead in implementing federal environmental programs and may have state requirements in addition to federal environmental requirements.
