EPA proposal reduces vinyl chloride air emissions nationwide
EPA proposes rules to cut vinyl chloride emissions by about 90 percent near dozens of plants. The chemical is linked to cancer, and the plastics industry backs emission controls but questions EPA's risk claims. Estimated 198 million dollars needed for pollution-control equipment as the rules take effect next spring.
