Clean Air Interstate Rule (CAIR); Final 2010-2013 Annual and Ozone Season CAIR Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) Allowance Allocations
[40 Pa.B. 297]
[Saturday, January 9, 2010]In accordance with 25 Pa. Code §§ 145.211(d) and 145.221(d) (relating to timing requirements for CAIR NOx allowance allocations; and timing requirements for CAIR NOx ozone season allowance allocations), the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) is providing notice of the finalization of the 2010-2013 annual and ozone season CAIR NOx allowance allocations. The Commonwealth's NOx budget for the annual CAIR program contains 99,049 NOx allowances; 97,761 NOx allowances are allocated. The remaining 1,288 (1.3% of the annual CAIR program budget) NOx allowances are set-aside for future allocation in accordance with 25 Pa. Code § 145.221(f)(2). The Commonwealth's NOx Budget for the ozone season CAIR program contains 42,171 NOx allowances, all of which are allocated.
For each CAIR unit and qualifying resource receiving a NOx allocation, Tables 1—8 that follow, list the following: the facility name, ORIS code, unit ID for each CAIR unit, either the gross loading or steam loading depending on type of unit, county, converted heat input from the base year and control period allowance allocation. Copies of these tables can also be found on the Department's Air Quality web site at www.depweb.state.pa.us (DEP keyword ''Air Quality''). On December 10, 2009, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) adopted a final rule approving the Commonwealth's CAIR State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision. (74 FR 65446, December 10, 2009). Therefore, these allocations replace those under the EPA's Federal Implementation Plan.
The Department made changes in the allocations based on comments from three commentators who provided revised gross loading values for their CAIR units. This resulted in redistribution of the available NOx allowance allocations.
Action at the Federal or State level could affect these allocations. Annual and ozone season CAIR NOx allowances do not constitute property rights.
Persons aggrieved by an action may appeal, under section 4 of the Environmental Hearing Board Act (35 P. S. § 7514) and 2 Pa.C.S. §§ 501—508 and 701—704 (relating to the Administrative Agency Law), to the Environmental Hearing Board, Second Floor, Rachel Carson State Office Building, 400 Market Street, P. O. Box 8457, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8457, (717) 787-3483. TDD users may contact the Environmental Hearing Board (Board) through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service, (800) 654-5984. Appeals must be filed with the Board within 30 days of publication of this notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin, unless the appropriate statute provides a different time period. Copies of the appeal form and the Board's rules of practice and procedure may be obtained from the Board. The appeal form and the Board's rules of practice and procedure are also available in Braille or on audiotape from the Secretary of the Board at (717) 787-3483. This paragraph does not, in and of itself, create any right of appeal beyond that permitted by applicable statutes and decision law.
For individuals who wish to challenge an action, appeals must reach the Board within 30 days. A lawyer is not needed to file an appeal with the Board.
Important legal rights are at stake, however, so individuals should show this notice to a lawyer at once. Persons who cannot afford a lawyer may qualify for pro bono representation. Call the Secretary to the Board at (717) 787-3483 for more information.
Questions concerning this notice should be directed to Randy Bordner, Chief, Stationary Source Section, Bureau of Air Quality at (717) 772-3921 or to ranbordner@ state.pa.us. TDD users may contact the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984 to discuss how the Department can best accommodate their needs.
