Clean Air Interstate Rule (CAIR); Proposed 2010-2013 Annual and Ozone Season CAIR Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) Allowance Allocations

[39 Pa.B. 6121]
[Saturday, October 17, 2009]

 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 and an opportunity to comment on the proposed 2010-2013 annual and ozone season CAIR NOx allowance allocations during the required 15-day public comment period. Pennsylvania's NOx budget for the annual CAIR program contains 99,049 NOx allowances; 97,761 NOx allowances are proposed for allocation. 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). Pennsylvania's NOx Budget for the ozone season CAIR program contains 42,171 NOx allowances, all of which are in the proposed allocations.

 For each CAIR unit and qualifying resource receiving an NOx allocation, Tables 1—8 that follow, list the following: the facility name, ORIS code, the 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. The notice of the final annual and ozone season CAIR NOx allowance allocations will not be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin until the Environmental Protection Agency adopts a final rule approving the Pennsylvania CAIR SIP revision.

 Action at the Federal or State level could affect these allocations, once final. Annual and ozone season CAIR NOx allowances do not constitute property rights.
