| E7-8263 | Supplemental Notice of Proposed Rulemaking for Prevention of Significant Deterioration and Nonattainment New Source Review: Emission Increases for Electric Generating Units | Proposed Rule | This action is a supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking (SNPR) to EPA's October 20, 2005 notice of proposed rulemaking (NPR). In the October 2005 NPR, EPA (we) proposed to revise the emissions test for existing electric generating units (EGUs) that are subject to the regulations governing the Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) and nonattainment major New Source Review (NSR) programs (collectively "NSR") mandated by parts C and D of title I of the Clean Air Act (CAA). We proposed three alternatives for the emissions test: a maximum achievable hourly emissions test, a maximum achieved hourly emissions test, and an output-based hourly emissions test. This action recasts the proposed options so that the output-based test becomes an alternative method to implement the maximum achieved or maximum achievable hourly tests, rather than a separate option. This SNPR also proposes a new option in which the hourly emissions increase test is added to the existing requirements for computing a significant increase and a significant net emissions increase on an annual basis. It also includes proposed rule language and supplemental information for the October 2005 proposal, including an examination of the impacts on emissions and air quality. These proposed regulations interpret the emissions increase component of the modification test under CAA 111(a)(4), in the context of NSR, for existing EGUs. The proposed regulations would promote the safety, reliability, and efficiency of EGUs. We are seeking comment on all aspects of this proposed rule. | 2007-05-08 | 2007 | 5 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2007/05/08/E7-8263/supplemental-notice-of-proposed-rulemaking-for-prevention-of-significant-deterioration-and | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2007-05-08/pdf/E7-8263.pdf | Environmental Protection Agency | 145 | This action is a supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking (SNPR) to EPA's October 20, 2005 notice of proposed rulemaking (NPR).
