| organic, | “of, relating to, or derived from living organisms.” EPA used the word “organic” in the phrase “recovered organic materials,” which include food and yard waste, biosolids, and manure, of animal or vegetable origin. EPA's use of the term “organic materials” is consistent with the compost and fertilizer industries’ commercial use of that term. For this reason, EPA is not using an alternative word, such as those suggested by the commenters. Also, EPA is not using the term “organic” to refer to organic farming, organically grown food, or USDA's NOP standards. EPA recognizes that the NOP standards do not allow biosolids to be used in the production of organic food and the final CPG V does not revise the NOP standards in any way. In addition, in the final CPG V RMAN, EPA notes that the NOP standards prohibit the use of sewage sludge (biosolids) in organic production. | United States | 72 FR 52475 |

Furthermore, based on the acknowledgment in its report, Andover appears only to have followed the methodology set forth in the CCM in these three limited respects. In all other respects, Andover relied on the IPM cost algorithms for its SCR estimate, without regard to the CCM. For SNCR capital costs, Andover relied on an assumed $20/kW cost rather than using the IPM algorithms or the methodology set forth in the CCM. | United States | 79 FR 5031 |
