Emissions Reduction Technology Forum
The EPA is using available tools in the Leak Detection And Repair work practice to reduce and prevent leaks, specifically fugitive emissions. Federal regulators are now using Enhanced LDAR Programs (ELP) in Consent Decrees to require equipment upgrades to low-leak technology which will lead to a reduction in fugitive emissions. Join this popular forum that brings together veterans from both sides of the table, industry and government and offers an informative examination of two low-leak technologies for valves. Each 40-minute session will feature a technology presentation followed by questions from an expert panel of end-users, sealing professionals, and the EPA.
