(08/29/03) The taconite iron ore processing rule applies to facilities that separate and concentrate iron from taconite, a low-grade iron ore. There are currently eight such facilities operating in the United States – six in Minnesota and two in Michigan. This rule will reduce toxic air emissions by approximately 225 tons per year from these facilities. For more information, go to: https://www.epa.gov/ttn/oarpg/ramain.html .
