11:30 New items 11:45 * Emergency Engines Jan Tredway NWDO See #2 NWDO; below.

#1 CDO: In regards to TV and NSR permitting, in scenarios with a control device limiting pollutants from over major source thresholds to below major source thresholds, how is PTE being evaluated (before or after control) and what is the resulting permitting classification? Does Engineering Guide 80 communicate the correct methodology for determining this, and if so, is it being followed? If it isn’t, then how is PTE being determined, and what is the resulting permitting classification (with what enforceable restrictions? then synthetic minor or true minor?)? How is 3745-31-05(F) in lieu of 31- 05(D) being utilized? Does Engineering Guide 80 need revisited and rewritten…it was included in our SOPs to CO that are being compiled, so are we expected to follow it?

We here in CDO have defaulted to before-control emissions as PTE for Title V purposes. For example, if a facility utilizing controls (as mentioned above) would want to avoid Title V, then the facility would need to make their control device(s) federally enforceable (through associated permit terms and draft issuance), and they would then result in a synthetic minor permit status. This seems to be the correct approach supported in published US EPA guidance as well as our own Engineering Guide 80. But we would like to hear everyone’s input and discussion about this topic since we have received guidance and direction recently regarding other permitting approaches for this scenario. We also want to understand how we should proceed from here forward, so we can successfully train new permitting staff on PTE evaluation.

#2 NWDO EMERGENCY ENGINES: The current permit-by-rule (PBR) for emergency electrical generators, water pumps, and air compressors powered by internal combustion engines has never really “lined up” with NSPS & RICE MACT requirements (as evidenced by the Director’s F&Os in April 2013 which allowed peak shaving until May 2014).

A recent DC Appeals Court decision vacated the “emergency demand response and low voltage and frequency” provisions of NSPS & RICE MACT. USEPA has indicated, the vacatur means emergency engines may not operate for the purpose of emergency demand response or low voltage and frequency situations. The vacatur of emergency demand response and low voltage and frequency provisions (which are defined as emergency situations in our state rules) has presented an additional layer of our emergency engine PBR differing or departing from federal rules. NWDO is looking for input as to how to precede going forward with what seems to be the ever constant changing emergency engine rules.

Pending Action Items Date Action Completed 3/8/16: Send all comments/recommendations to Mike Hopkins by the end of this week, 3/11/16. Next step will Possible revisions to permit application & instructions then be determined.

3/8/16: [CDO to consider how to resolve EG #61 and/or Chapter 77 rules as relates to 20% provision used to EG #61 vs 20% provision avoid Title V applicability.] Mike Hopkins yet to talk to A. Hall and B. Cirker about adding it into the rules.
