Beryllium Solid <strong>MSDS</strong> No. <strong>M10</strong> January 1, 2010<br />

15.1.2. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)<br />

AMBIENT AIR EMISSIONS: Beryllium-containing materials are subject to the National Emission Standard<br />

for Beryllium as promulgated by EPA (40 CFR 61, Subpart C). The National Emission Standard for beryllium<br />

is 0.01 micrograms per cubic meter (30-day average) in ambient air for those production facilities which have<br />

been qualified to be regulated through ambient air monitoring. Other facilities must meet a 10 gram per 24hour<br />

total site emission limit. Most process air emission sources will require an air permit from a local and/or<br />

state air pollution control agency. The use of air cleaning equipment may be necessary to achieve the<br />

permissible emission. Tempered makeup air should be provided to prevent excessive negative pressure in a<br />

building. Direct recycling of cleaned process exhaust air is not recommended. Plant exhausts should be<br />

located so as not to re-enter the plant through makeup air or other inlets. Regular maintenance and inspection<br />

of air cleaning equipment and monitoring of operating parameters is recommended to ensure adequate<br />

efficiency is maintained.<br />

WASTEWATER: Wastewater regulations can vary considerably. Contact your local and state governments<br />

to determine their requirements.<br />

TOXIC SUBSTANCES CONTROL ACT: Component(s) of this material is/are listed on the TSCA<br />

Chemical Substance Inventory of Existing Chemical Substances<br />

emission reporting on specific chemicals which are manufactured, processed or used at certain U.S. Industrial<br />

facilities.<br />
