[Stoves] Free webinar on automated wood stoves

Fri Jun 16 21:17:18 CDT 2017

Crispin:

Aren't these for high-cost heat stoves and HOBs in the colder regions of US?

Unlike cookstoves, EPA has subject matter jurisdiction over these for
setting New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) and  may have shared
enforcement jurisdiction along with states. It has gone through 30 years of
research and regulatory development, and now that the Final Rule has gone
into effect, it can seek State Implementation Plan development and
enforcement. It also has legally established test methods and testing
facilities.

This is not the case with cookstoves at all. EPA has no jurisdiction, in
the US (and of course not the rest of the world). Nor does EPA - or anybody
- have legally established test methods or legally approved testing
facilities.

I would be glad to stand corrected - if Mr. Jetter provides a regulatory
reference to cookstove testing procedures established under US laws or
regulations.
