摘要

Industry groups say ammonium nitrate, the fertilizer that exploded at a plant in West, TX, killing more than a dozen people recently, is not an air toxic and is not eligible for EPA scrutiny under its Clean Air Act risk management plan (RMP) program, undercutting calls by advocates that EPA should regulate the substance under the RMP. A source with The Fertilizer Institute (TFI) says ammonium nitrate is not appropriate for EPA reporting requirements under the air act program because it is not a toxic air pollutant. But the TFI source adds that the group is backing a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) tracking program, authorized by Congress in 2008, to ensure the substance is not sold to terrorists, though a GOP lawmaker from Texas is strongly criticizing DHS for not completing the program's implementing regulations.
