EPA Public Hearing on Limetree Facility

After comprehensive review and evaluation, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has issued a draft for the Clean Air Act Plantwide Applicability Limit permit for Limetree Bay Terminal and Limetree Bay Refining, both located on St. Croix. A public hearing will be held today; the public can comment on the draft permit for 45 days once the public notice is published in the newspaper. A court reporter will record all of the comments made to EPA during that hearing. EPA will consider all public comments received during the public comment period and public hearing before making a final determination.
