For particulate matter, the source will only be required to perform ambient impact analysis for PM₁₀ when the source has the potential to emit significant amounts of PM₁₀ as determined from Table 2 of 20.11.61.27 NMAC.

B. Source impact analysis.

(1) Required demonstration. The owner or operator of the proposed source or modification shall demonstrate that the allowable emission increases from the proposed source or modification, in conjunction with all other applicable emissions increases or reductions, (including secondary emissions), would not cause or contribute to air pollution in violation of:

(a) any NAAQS in any air quality control region; or

(b) any applicable maximum allowable increase (as shown in Table 4 of 20.11.61.29 NMAC) over the baseline concentrations in any area.
