Section Env-A 1315.04 - Information Required for NOx RACT Order Request

The information required by Env-A 1315.02(a) shall be as follows:

(a) An inventory of all NOx-emitting sources, devices, or processes at the facility;

(b) The maximum NOx-emitting capacity of each NOx-emitting source, device, or process;

(c) The actual amount of NOx emitted based on heat input, fuel consumption, or equivalent method acceptable to the department, for each day during the previous calendar year, from each affected NOx-emitting source, device or process at the facility;

(d) A feasibility study of RACT options, comprising:

(1) Identification of all available NOx control techniques and other options for all applicable NOx emitting sources, devices, or processes for which alternative RACT emission limits are sought, including but not limited to using emission reduction credits (ERCs) or discrete emission reductions (DERs), changing to low-NOx emitting processes, and, for utility boilers, the following:

a.Low-NOx burners;

b.Overfire air;

c.Flue gas recirculation;

d.Natural gas reburn;

e.Burners out of service;

f.Use of alternative fuels;

g.Selective catalytic reduction (SCR); and

h.Selective non-catalytic reduction (SNCR); and

(2) An examination of the technical and economic feasibility of each option identified;

(e) The control option selected, stating emission limits, monitoring, recordkeeping and reporting procedures, and test methods to demonstrate compliance;

(f) The amount of NOx that is proposed to be controlled from each NOx-emitting source, device or process identified in the inventory required by (a), above; and

(g) A schedule for implementation, which identifies the commitment dates for the major increments of progress toward compliance, including:

(1) Completion of engineering;

(2) Submission of air pollution permit application;

(3) Awarding of contract;

(4) Initiation of construction;

(5) Completion of construction;

(6) Initial compliance testing;

(7) Submission of compliance tests reports; and

(8) Final compliance with emission or control requirements of this chapter.
