Change the sentence from the definition of “significant impact”
that says that the threshold concentrations in Table 1 are used
for comparison against the ambient air quality standards and
PSD increments but do not apply for protecting air quality related
values, including visibility. |
The part of the sentence about protecting PSD Class I increments
is from a September 10, 1991 EPA memo regarding Class I Area
Significant Impact Levels and were never intended to be used
for evaluating impacts on the Class I increments (43 FR 26380,
June 19, 1978). The memo also states that “use of such significant
impact levels for the purpose of Class I increment analyses does
not include their use for determining whether a source should conduct
an adverse impact analysis for any air quality-related value
(AQRV) in a Class I area, or whether a source would have an adverse
impact on an AQRV.” |

Delete 40% opacity limit and make a provision for soot blowing
and grate cleaning: |
DEQ is proposing the changes for the following reasons: |
|
| 194 |
|
|
|
|
“No person may emit or allow to be emitted any air contaminant
into the atmosphere from any air contaminant stack or emission
point that equals or exceeds 20% opacity as a six-minute average
except as allowed in section (2).” |
· Some of the affected sources will probably have to reduce emissions
anyway due to future regulations, such as the Boiler and Industrial
furnace MACT. |
|
| 195 |
|
|
|
|
|
· Having two standards creates an unequal playing field for industry;
especially since new sources can be as much as 40 years old. |
|
| 196 |
|
|
|
|
|
· More and more areas of the state are special control areas due
to population increases. |
|
| 197 |
|
|
|
|
|
· EPA’s adoption of a new PM2.5 24-hour NAAQS has resulted in 2 nonattainment areas, with a third
meeting the definition but not legally designated as such. This
proposed rule change will reduce opacity in all areas and will
help prevent future problems. |
|
| 198 |
|
|
|
|
|
· Phased compliance will give sources that cannot meet the new standards
time to comply. |

Change “source” to “stack or emission point” |
“Stack or emission point” are not defined but are used in
divisions 234 and 240 for veneer dryers. Each stack or emission
point (vent or stack or door opening where emissions come from)
should have an opacity limit and should not be averaged. The
pulp mill rule says “stack” rather than source. |

Make the 20% limit applicable to all non-fugitive sources in the
state. Change limit to a 6-minute average instead of a 3-minute
aggregate. |
DEQ is proposing the change because of the following reasons: |
done |
| 201 |
|
|
|
|
|
· An opacity standard based on a 6-minute average is no more or
less stringent than a standard based on an aggregate of 3 minutes
in any hour. Theoretically, either basis could be more stringent
than the other, but practically, sources do not typically have
intermittent puffs of smoke. If there is an upset that lasts
longer than 3 minutes, it usually lasts longer than 6 minutes,
as well. |
|
| 202 |
|
|
|
|
|
· Other reasons for changing to a 6 minute average include: |
|
| 203 |
|
|
|
|
|
o A reference compliance method has not been developed for the 3
minute standard. |
|
| 204 |
|
|
|
|
|
o EPA method 9 results are reported as 6-minute averages. |
|
| 205 |
|
|
|
|
|
o The 3-minute standard adds more cost to data acquisition systems
for continuous opacity monitoring systems. Many of the COMS
are designed for 6-minute averages, so they have to be modified
to record and report data for the 3-minute standard. |
|
| 206 |
|
|
|
|
|
o Compliance with a 6 minute average can be determined with 24 readings
(6-minute observation period); whereas, compliance with the 3-minute
standard may require as many as 240 readings (60 minute observation
period). In addition, it is DEQ’s policy that the inspector
observes the source for at least 6 minutes before making a compliance
determination. |

Update Source Sampling Manual: § 60.8 Performance tests. (b) Performance tests shall be conducted and data reduced in
accordance with the test methods and procedures contained in
each applicable subpart unless the Administrator (1) specifies
or approves, in specific cases, the use of a reference method
with minor changes in methodology, (2) approves the use of an
equivalent method, (3) approves the use of an alternative method
the results of which he has determined to be adequate for indicating
whether a specific source is in compliance, (4) waives the requirement
for performance tests because the owner or operator of a source
has demonstrated by other means to the Administrator’s satisfaction
that the affected facility is in compliance with the standard,
or (5) approves shorter sampling times and smaller sample volumes
when necessitated by process variables or other factors. Nothing
in this paragraph shall be construed to abrogate the Administrator’s
authority to require testing under section 114 of the Act. |
MARK B: I believe the manuals provide necessary guidance on how
to do the testing/monitoring and what is expected (test plan
requirements, report requirements, monitoring QA/QC, etc.).
Having the manuals referenced in rule is difficult to maintain
when the manual needs to be updated on a regular basis (that
is why it hasn’t been updated). However, how do we specify
the DEQ method in rule without referencing the manual? Also,
since EPA methods & monitoring requirements change, would an
existing permittee need to revise their monitoring plan every
time EPA edits their requirements, or would they be grandfathered?

We really only have 2 unique test methods in Oregon. They are
the wet bulb/dry bulb method for measuring stack moisture and
the high volume particulate matter test. DEQ methods 5 and 7
are somewhat unique, but we could rely on EPA Method 5 and 202.
For all other test methods, we rely on EPA reference methods.
I wonder if we couldn't just add some of the general provisions
from the Source Sampling Manual to Division 212 and incorporate
40 CFR 60.8 and appendices by reference. We could retain the
1992 Source Sampling specifically for the methods I cited above
without having to revise the document and updating the SIP.
The changes to Division 212 could be made any time that we are
doing a SIP revision. |

Part C: Activities and Sources |
As I mentioned the other day, there’s an issue we currently
have in Table 1 Part C that identifies criteria for distinguishing
Simple ACDP’s from Standard ACDP’s that I think needs to
be reconsidered and revised. Part C: item 4.b. requires all
sources subject to a RACT, BACT, LAER, NESHAP, NSPS, State MACT,
or other significant Air Quality regulation, with > 10 tons/yr.
actual emissions have a Standard ACDP (unless exempted elsewhere
- see below). The history of this criteria, as best I can determine,
is that it represents the old Minimal Source ACDP threshold of
ancient DEQ rules. The problem this presents us is that all
of our regional offices likely have sources operating with Simple
permits that actually should have Standard permits under this
requirement. This is especially true now with the advent of
the area source NESHAPs for which many of our sources are now
subject. I suggest that we cut this requirement from the rule
and make the Simple/Standard applicability distinction based
on IMD or policy statement. |
|
| 309 |
|
|

|
The following sources must obtain a Standard ACDP under the procedures
set forth in 340-216-0066: |
|
|
| 311 |
|
|
|
|
4. All Sources subject to a RACT, BACT, LAER, NESHAP adopted in
OAR 340-244-0220, NSPS, State MACT, or other significant Air
Quality regulation(s), except: |
|
|
| 313 |
|
|
|

b. Sources with less than 10 tons/yr. actual emissions that are

Table 1 Part C, 4l. |
|
|
Add “Boilers and other fuel burning equipment less than or equal
to 10 MMBTU/hr. heat input.” |
These sources should be exempt from getting a standard ACDP because
the current permitting threshold for boilers is 10 MMBtu/hr.
Adopting the area source boiler NESHAP will pull solid and liquid
fuel fired boilers < 10 MMBtu/hr into the permitting program,
unless we add an exemption. The boilers < 10 MMBtu/hr only have
to be tuned-up, so it doesn't make sense to permit them. We will
keep the same permitting threshold for boilers and may register
smaller boilers in the future, as our rules already allow us
to do. |

If a source goes through NSR, the EUs that get bumped up to PTE
because of use of existing capacity technically haven’t gone
through NSR. They didn’t get BACT so the netting basis for
those emissions units shouldn’t be increased. The embargo
only affects the EUs that went through NSR. Nothing as far as
an NSR action would increase the netting basis unless it’s
gone through an AQ analysis and a control technology analysis. The
PSEL for EUs that were increased because of use of existing capacity
have PSELs higher than the netting basis but those emissions
can’t be used for netting. |

than nonattainment areas. DEQ is creating requirements for sources
in “areas violating federal NAAQS” in order to improve air
quality and to enable the source to construct or modify. Without
these rules, sources would not be able to construct or modify
because they would never be able to show compliance with the
NAAQS since the background concentration is already above the

Add a section for Requirements for Sources in Potential Nonattainment
Areas: |
This provision will help the area from becoming a nonattainment
area and will also allow source to construct in areas that are
not yet designated as nonattainment areas. Preconstruction monitoring
data will show what the background concentration is in the area
of the proposed source. |
done |
| 421 |
|
|
|
|
(1) Preconstruction monitoring |
|
|
| 422 |
|
|
|
|
(2) Offsets at 1:1 except DEQ may allow a lower ratio if the offsets
are from sources that are contributing to the potential nonattainment
area designation; |
ANDY: One concern I have is this: most of the emissions causing
NAAQS violations are from area and mobile sources, but this would
focus only on point sources. It is a good tool for nonattainment
areas – even when point sources aren’t a major cause of the
violations – because it gets industry support for developing
an attainment plan. But that only works if the requirement
is mandated by federal law. If we require it, even in cases
where point sources really aren’t significant, it could have
the opposite effect. |
|
| 423 |
|
|
|
|
(3) AQ analysis to show that the NAAQS will not be violated. |
|
|
| 424 |
|
|
|
|
|
I would think we would not want it to be fully automatic, but
rather only trigger if there is some AQ analysis that shows it
would be helpful. So, perhaps a source over the SER would have
to put on technology (either LAER or BACT), and then do an AQ
analysis to see if it would cause a significant impact in the
areas of violation. If so, the source would have to do more
controls or get an offset. We also have to remember that these
sources would also be subject to PSD if they are over 250 tons,
so the requirements would have to nestle within that. Something
like that might be more supportable since we could say it is
actually needed to protect air quality (as opposed to automatic
requirements that might affect a new source well downwind of
the area of violation). |

Require visibility analysis in Columbia River Gorge National Scenic
Area |
FYI - the reason we made the analysis voluntary many years ago
was 1) we questioned whether we had the authority to actually
require this for a non-Class I area, and 2) if it’s mandatory
and not done by the applicant, then what, deny the permit application?
Or, if it is done, and is over 5% extinction, then what? The
analysis is mandatory – saying no impact over 5% is not. |

|
|
(a) 0.20 grains per dry standard cubic foot for sources installed,
constructed, or modified before June 1, 1970 except as required

· Some of the affected sources will probably have to reduce emissions
anyway due to future regulations, such as the Boiler and Industrial
furnace MACT. |
|

|
|
|
|
(b) 0.1 grains per dry standard cubic foot for sources installed,
constructed, or modified after June 1, 1970, except as required
by sections (c) and (d). |
· Having two standards creates an unequal playing field for industry;
especially since new sources can be as much as 40 years old. |
|
| 507 |
|
|
|
|
(c) 0.10 grains per dry standard cubic foot if the source is located
within 5 miles of a potential nonattainment area, nonattainment
area, or maintenance area and was installed, constructed or modified
after June 1, 1970. |
· More and more areas of the state are special control areas due
to population increases. |
|
| 508 |
|
|
|
|
(d) 0.10 grains per dry standard cubic foot for all sources on
or after January 1, 2019. |
· EPA’s adoption of a new PM2.5 24-hour NAAQS has resulted in 2 nonattainment areas, with a third
meeting the definition but not legally designated as such. This
proposed rule change will reduce grain loading in all areas and
will help prevent future problem. |

Change 0.2 gr/dscf to the following: |
DEQ is proposing the change because of the following reasons: |
done |
| 531 |
|
|
|
|
(a) 0.20 grains per dry standard cubic foot for sources installed,
constructed, or modified before June 1, 1970 except as required
by section (d). |
· Some of the affected sources will probably have to reduce emissions
anyway due to future regulations, such as the Boiler and Industrial
furnace MACT. |
|
| 532 |
|
|
|
|
(b) 0.1 grains per dry standard cubic foot for sources installed,
constructed, or modified after June 1, 1970, except as required
by sections (c) and (d). |
· Having two standards creates an unequal playing field for industry;
especially since new sources can be as much as 40 years old. |
|
| 533 |
|
|
|
|
(c) 0.10 grains per dry standard cubic foot if the source is located
within 5 miles of a potential nonattainment area, nonattainment
area, or maintenance area and was installed, constructed or modified
after June 1, 1970. |
· More and more areas of the state are special control areas due
to population increases. |
|
| 534 |
|
|
|
|
(d) 0.10 grains per dry standard cubic foot for all sources on
or after January 1, 2019. |
· EPA’s adoption of a new PM2.5 24-hour NAAQS has resulted in 2 nonattainment areas, with a third
meeting the definition but not legally designated as such. This
proposed rule change will reduce grain loading in all areas and
will help prevent future problem. |

(2) The owner or operator of an existing source who is unable
to comply with OAR 340-228-0210(1)(a), (c), or (d) may request
that DEQ grant an extension allowing the source up to one year
to comply with the standard, if such period is necessary for
the installation of controls. |
· Phased compliance will give sources that cannot meet the new standards
time to comply. |
|
| 536 |
|
|
|
|
|
· Changes would make it easier |
|
| 537 |

However, (and this is a little different than what you might have
heard from me before), If there are indeed no longer any sources
in Oregon subject to these rules, then there should be no trouble
deleting them from the SIP. That's based on our understanding
that any new facilities in these source categories would be subject
to new source permitting requirements (PSD, Part D NSR, minor
NSR, NSPS, new source MACT, etc.) and would end up with tighter
controls than would be required under this old (1970's vintage)
SIP rule. Importantly, new sources would be required to demonstrate
that their emissions wouldn't cause or contribute to a NAAQS
or increment violation so there is no need for these rules in
the SIP. |

OAR 340-236-0410, Specific Industry Standard for Hot-mix Asphalt
Plants |
|
| 649 |
|
|
|
|
|
1. Problem(s): |
|
| 650 |
|
|
|
|
|
The rule is outdated and unnecessary and can be replaced with
other existing standards or rules. |
|
| 651 |
|
|
|
|
|
2. Regulatory streamlining (Executive Order Number EO-03-01): |
|
| 652 |
|
|
|
|
|
Permitting: Elimination of the Process Weight rule will simplify
permits. |
|
| 653 |
|
|
|
|
|
Compliance: Deleting the Process Weight requirement will make
compliance testing somewhat easier for affected sources. |
|
| 655 |
|
|
|
|
|
3. Rule Fix options: |
|
| 656 |
|
|
|
|
|
Delete existing rule in its entirety. Other existing rules would
apply to asphalt plants directly without need for a special rule. |
|
| 657 |
|
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, delete existing language and replace with 2 provisions:
(1) facilities that are subject to the NSPS must meet the NSPS
requirements; and (2) facilities not subject to (1) must meet
the statewide 0.1 (or 0.10) gr/dscf PM standard. |
|
| 659 |
|
|
|
|
|
4. Issues: |
|
| 660 |
|
|
|
|
|
Statutory authority - |
|
| 661 |
|
|
|
|
|
Stringency (impact on regulated sources) - Little impact on regulated
sources, somewhat simpler permit and testing requirements. |
|
| 662 |
|
|
|
|
|
Environmental backsliding (impact on environment) - No impact
on the environment is expected from this rule change. Hot-mix
asphalt plants will continue to operate as they do currently,
and emissions will not change. |
