II. Requirements for Specific Units

II.A. Federal Implementation Plan Requirements. The following requirements apply to

coal-fired boilers U1, U2, and U3, coal and ash handling equipment, and the two

auxiliary steam boilers at Navajo Generating Station. [40 CFR § 49.5513]

1. Definitions. The following definitions apply to Section II.A of this permit

[40 CFR § 49.5513(c)]:

a. Absorber upset transition period means the 24-hour period following an

upset of an SO2 absorber module which resulted in the absorber being

taken out of service.

b. Affirmative defense means, in the context of an enforcement proceeding, a

response or defense put forward by a defendant, regarding which the

defendant has the burden of proof, and the merits of which are

independently and objectively evaluated in a judicial or administrative

proceeding. 40 CFR § 49.5513provides an affirmative defense to

actions for penalties brought for excess emissions that arise

during certain malfunction episodes.

c. Malfunction means any sudden and unavoidable failure of air pollution

control equipment or process equipment or of a process to operate in a

normal or usual manner. Failures that are caused entirely or in part by poor

maintenance, careless operation, or any other preventable upset

condition or preventable equipment breakdown shall not be

considered malfunctions. An affirmative defense is not available if

during the period of excess emissions, there was an exceedance of the

relevant ambient air quality standard that could be attributed to the

emitting source.

d. Plant-wide means a weighted average of particulate matter and SO2

emissions for boilers U1, U2, and U3 based on the heat input to each

unit as determined by 40 CFR Part 75.

e. Point source means any crusher, any conveyor belt transfer point, any

pneumatic material transferring, any baghouse or other control devices

used to capture dust emissions from loading and unloading, and any other

stationary point of dust that may be observed in conformance with

Method 9 of Appendix A-4 of 40 CFR Part 60 (excluding stockpiles).

f. Regional Administrator means the Regional Administrator of the

Environmental Protection Agency, Region 9, or his/her authorized

representative.

g. Startup means the period from the start of fires in the boiler with fuel oil,

Page 9: THE NAVAJO NATION2015/09/04  · Two (2) conveyors to the coal silos for boiler U3 1,500 tons/hr (each) 1970 DC-5 CC-1A through CC-9A; CC-1B through CC-9B Three (3) enclosed cascading

Page 9 of 62

to the time when the electrostatic precipitator is sufficiently heated such

that the temperature of the air preheater inlet reaches 400 degrees

Fahrenheit and when a unit reaches 300 MW net load. Proper startup

procedures shall include energizing the electrostatic precipitator prior to

the combustion of coal in the boiler. 40 CFR § 49.5513 provides an

affirmative defense to actions for penalties brought for excess emissions

that arise during startup episodes. An affirmative defense is not available

if during the period of excess emissions, there was an exceedance of the

relevant ambient air quality standard that could be attributed to the

emitting source.

h. Shutdown means the time that begins when the unit drops below 300

MW net load with the intent to remove the unit from service. The

precipitator shall be maintained in service until boiler fans are

disengaged. 40 CFR § 49.5513 provides an affirmative defense to

actions for penalties brought for excess emissions that arise during

shutdown episodes. An affirmative defense is not available if during the

period of excess emissions, there was an exceedance of the relevant

ambient air quality standard that could be attributed to the emitting

source.

i. Oxides of nitrogen (NOX) means the sum of nitrogen oxide (NO) and

nitrogen dioxide (NO2) in the flue gas, expressed as nitrogen dioxide.

2. Emissions Limitations and Control Measures [40 CFR § 49.5513(d)]:

a. Sulfur oxides (SO2). The permittee shall not discharge or cause the

discharge of sulfur oxides into the atmosphere from boilers U1, U2 and

U3in excess of 1.0 pound per million British thermal units

(lb/MMBtu) averaged over any three (3) hour period, on a plant-wide

basis.

b. Particulate matter (PM). The permittee shall not discharge or cause the

discharge of particulate matter into the atmosphere in excess of 0.060

lb/MMBtu, on a plant-wide basis, as averaged from at least three sampling

runs per stack, each at a minimum of 60 minutes in duration, each

collecting a minimum sample of 30 dry standard cubic feet.

c. Dust. The permittee shall operate and maintain the existing dust suppression

methods for controlling dust from the coal handling and storage

facilities. A dust control plan was submitted by the permittee on June

4, 2010 in accordance with 40 CFR § 49.5513(d)(3). A revised plan

was submitted on February 2, 2015 and is attached as Attachment A

to this permit. The permittee shall not emit dust with an opacity greater

than 20% from any crusher, grinding mill, screening operation, belt conveyor,

truck loading or unloading operation, or railcar unloading station, as

Page 10: THE NAVAJO NATION2015/09/04  · Two (2) conveyors to the coal silos for boiler U3 1,500 tons/hr (each) 1970 DC-5 CC-1A through CC-9A; CC-1B through CC-9B Three (3) enclosed cascading

Page 10 of 62

determined using 40 CFR Part 60, Appendix A-4, Method 9.

d. Opacity. The permittee shall not discharge or cause the discharge of

emissions from the stacks of boilers U1, U2, or U3 into the

atmosphere exhibiting greater than 20% opacity, excluding condensed

uncombined water droplets, averaged over any six (6) minute period and

40% opacity, averaged over six (6) minutes, during absorber upset

transition periods.

3. Testing and Monitoring [40 CFR § 49.5513(e)]:

a. The permittee shall maintain and operate Continuous Emissions

Monitoring Systems (CEMS) for NOX and SO2 and Continuous Opacity

Monitoring Systems (COMS) on boilers U1, U2, and U3 in accordance

with 40 CFR §§ 60.8 and 60.13(e), (f), and (h), and Appendix B of 40

CFR Part 60. The permittee shall comply with the quality assurance

procedures for CEMS and COMS found in 40 CFR part 75.

b. The permittee shall conduct annual mass emissions tests for particulate

matter on boilers U1, U2, and U3, operating at rated capacity, using coal

that is representative of that normally used. The tests shall be

conducted using the appropriate test methods in 40 CFR Part 60,

Appendix A.

c. During any calendar year in which an auxiliary boiler is operated for 720

hours or more, and at other times as requested by the Administrator, the

permittee shall conduct mass emissions tests for sulfur dioxide, nitrogen

oxides and particulate matter on the auxiliary steam boilers, operating at

rated capacity, using oil that is representative of that normally used. The

tests shall be conducted using the appropriate test methods in 40 CFR Part

60, Appendix A. For particulate matter, testing shall consist of three test

runs. Each test run shall be at least sixty (60) minutes in duration and shall

collect a minimum volume of thirty (30) dry standard cubic feet.

d. The permittee shall maintain two sets of opacity filters for each type of

COMS, one set to be used as calibration standards and one set to be used

as audit standards. At least one set of filters shall be on site at all times.

e. All emissions testing and monitor evaluation required pursuant to 40

Page 21 of 62

7. Exclusion for catastrophic failure. Any periods of emissions from an affected unit

for which the Administrator finds that the control equipment or system for such

unit is out of service because of catastrophic failure of the control system which

occurred for reasons beyond the control of the permittee and could not have been

prevented by good engineering practices will be excluded from the compliance

determination. Events which are the consequence of lack of appropriate

maintenance or of intentional or negligent conduct or omissions of the permittee

or the control system design, construction, or operating contractors do not

constitute catastrophic failure [40 CFR § 52.145(d)(10)].

8. Equipment operation. The permittee shall optimally operate all equipment or

systems needed to comply with the requirements of this paragraph consistent with

good engineering practices to keep emissions at or below the emission limitation

in Condition II.D.2 of this permit, and following outages of any control

operation as expeditiously as practicable [40 CFR § 52.145(d)(11)].

9. Maintenance scheduling. On March 16 of each year starting in 1993, the permittee

shall prepare and submit to the Administrator a long-term maintenance plan for

the Navajo Generating Station which accommodates the maintenance

requirements for the other generating facilities on the Navajo Generating Station

grid covering the period from March 16 to March 15 of the next year and showing

at least 6 unit-weeks of maintenance for the Navajo Generating Station during the

November 1 to March 15 period, except as provided in Condition II.D.10 of this

permit. This plan shall be developed consistent with the criteria established by the

Western Electric Coordinating Council of the North American Electric Reliability

Corporation to ensure an adequate reserve margin of electric generating capacity.

At the time that a plan is transmitted to the Administrator, the permittee shall

notify the Administrator in writing if less than the full scheduled unit-weeks of

maintenance were conducted for the period covered by the previous plan and shall

furnish a written report stating how that year qualified for one of the exceptions

identified in Condition II.D.10 of this permit [40 CFR § 52.145(d)(12)].

10. Exceptions for maintenance scheduling. The permittee shall conduct a full 6 unit-

weeks of maintenance in accordance with the plan required in Condition II.D.9 of

this permit unless the permittee can demonstrate to the satisfaction of the

Administrator that a full 6 unit-weeks of maintenance during the November 1 to

March 15 period should not be required because of the following [40 CFR §

52.145(d)(13)]:

a. There is no need for 6 unit-weeks of scheduled periodic maintenance in

the year covered by the plan;

Page 22: THE NAVAJO NATION2015/09/04  · Two (2) conveyors to the coal silos for boiler U3 1,500 tons/hr (each) 1970 DC-5 CC-1A through CC-9A; CC-1B through CC-9B Three (3) enclosed cascading

Page 22 of 62

b. The reserve margin on any electrical system served by the Navajo

Generating Station would fall to an inadequate level, as defined by the

criteria referred to in Condition II.D.9 of this permit.

c. The cost of compliance with this requirement would be excessive. The

cost of compliance would be excessive when the economic savings to the

permittee of moving maintenance out of the November 1 to March 15

period exceeds $50,000 per unit-day of maintenance moved.

d. A major forced outage at a unit occurs outside of the November 1 to

March 15 period, and necessary periodic maintenance occurs during the

period of forced outage.

11. If the Administrator determines that a full 6 unit-weeks of maintenance during the

November 1 to March 15 period should not be required, the permittee shall

nevertheless conduct that amount of scheduled maintenance that is not precluded

by the Administrator. Generally, the permittee shall make best efforts to conduct

as much scheduled maintenance as practicable during the November 1 to March

15 period. [40 CFR § 52.145(d)(13)]

reasonably preventable failure of the monitoring to provide valid data. Monitoring

failures that are caused in part by poor maintenance or careless operation are not

malfunctions. [40 CFR § 64.7(c)]

6. Response to excursions or exceedances [40 CFR § 64.7(d)]

a. Upon detecting an excursion or exceedance, the permittee shall restore

operation of the pollutant-specific emissions unit (including the control

device and associated capture system) to its normal or usual manner of

operation as expeditiously as practicable in accordance with good air

pollution control practices for minimizing emissions. The response shall

include minimizing the period of any startup, shutdown or malfunction

and taking any necessary corrective actions to restore normal operation

and prevent the likely recurrence of the cause of an excursion or

exceedance (other than those caused by excused startup or shutdown

conditions). Such actions may include initial inspection and evaluation,

recording that operations returned to normal without operator action (such

as through response by a computerized distribution control system), or any

necessary follow-up actions to return operation to within the indicator

range, designated condition, or below the applicable emission limitation or

standard, as applicable.

b. Determination of whether the permittee has used acceptable procedures in

response to an excursion or exceedance will be based on information

available, which may include but is not limited to monitoring results,

review of operation and maintenance procedures and records, and

inspection of the control device, associated capture system, and the

Page 37: THE NAVAJO NATION2015/09/04  · Two (2) conveyors to the coal silos for boiler U3 1,500 tons/hr (each) 1970 DC-5 CC-1A through CC-9A; CC-1B through CC-9B Three (3) enclosed cascading

Page 37 of 62

process.

7. If the permittee identifies a failure to achieve compliance with an emission

limitation or standard for which the approved monitoring did not provide an

indication of an excursion or exceedance while providing valid data, or the results

of compliance or performance testing document a need to modify the existing

indicator ranges or designated conditions, the permittee shall promptly notify

NNEPA and, if necessary, submit a proposed modification to this permit to

address the necessary monitoring changes. Such a modification may include, but

is not limited to, reestablishing indicator ranges or designated conditions,

modifying the frequency of conducting monitoring and collecting data, or the

monitoring of additional parameters. [40 CFR § 64.7(e)]

8. Based on the results of a determination made under Condition II.N.6.b of this

permit, NNEPA may require the permittee to develop and implement a Quality

Improvement Plan (QIP). In addition, NNEPA may require the implementation of

a QIP if an accumulation of exceedances or excursions exceeds 5 percent duration

of each unit’s (U1-U3) operating time for one calendar quarter. [40 CFR §

64.8(a)]

9. Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements [40 CFR § 64.9]

4. Basis for calculating annual fee:

The annual emissions fee shall be calculated by multiplying the total tons of

actual emissions of all fee pollutants emitted from the source by the applicable

emissions fee (in dollars/ton) in effect at the time of calculation. Emissions of any

regulated air pollutant that already are included in the fee calculation under a

category of regulated pollutant, such as a federally listed hazardous air pollutant

that is already accounted for as a VOC or as PM10, shall be counted only once in

determining the source’s actual emissions. [NNOPR §§ 602(A) and (B)(1)]

a. “Actual emissions” means the actual rate of emissions in tpy of any fee

pollutant emitted from a part 71 source over the preceding calendar year.

Actual emissions shall be calculated using each emissions unit’s actual

operating hours, production rates, in-place control equipment, and types of

materials processed, stored, or combusted during the preceding calendar

year. Actual emissions shall not include emissions of any one fee pollutant

Page 48: THE NAVAJO NATION2015/09/04  · Two (2) conveyors to the coal silos for boiler U3 1,500 tons/hr (each) 1970 DC-5 CC-1A through CC-9A; CC-1B through CC-9B Three (3) enclosed cascading

Page 48 of 62

in excess of 4,000 TPY, or any emissions that come from insignificant

activities [NNOPR § 102(5)].

b. Actual emissions shall be computed using methods required by the permit

for determining compliance, such as monitoring or source testing data [40

CFR § 71.6(a)(7) and § 71.9(h)(3)].

c. If actual emissions cannot be determined using the compliance methods in

the permit, the permittee shall use other federally recognized procedures

[40 CFR § 71.6(a)(7) and § 71.9(e)(2)].

d. The term “fee pollutant” is defined in NNOPR § 102(24).

e. The term “regulated air pollutant” is defined in NNOPR § 102(50), except

that for purposes of this permit the term does not include any pollutant that

is regulated solely pursuant to 4 N.N.C. § 1121 nor does it include any

hazardous air pollutant designated by the Director pursuant to 4 N.N.C. §

1126(B).

f. The permittee should note that the applicable fee is revised each year to

account for inflation, and it is available from NNEPA starting on March 1

of each year.

g. The total annual fee due shall be the greater of the applicable minimum fee

and the sum of subtotal annual fees for all fee pollutants emitted from the

source. [NNOPR § 602(B)(2)]

5. The permittee shall retain, in accordance with the provisions of 40 CFR §

71.6(a)(3)(ii), all fee calculation worksheets and other emissions-related data used

to determine fee payment for 5 years following submittal of fee payment.

Emission-related data include emissions-related forms provided by NNEPA and

used by the permittee for fee calculation purposes, emissions-related spreadsheets,

and records of emissions monitoring data and related support information required

to be kept in accordance with 40 CFR § 71.6(a)(3)(ii) [40 CFR § 71.6(a)(7) and §

71.9(i)].

6. Failure of the permittee to pay fees in a timely manner shall subject the permittee

to assessment of penalties and interest in accordance with NNOPR § 603(C).

7. When notified by NNEPA of underpayment of fees, the permittee shall remit full

payment within 30 days of receipt of notification [40 CFR § 71.9(j)(2)].

8. A permittee who thinks an NNEPA assessed fee is in error and wishes to

challenge such fee, shall provide a written explanation of the alleged error to

NNEPA along with full payment of the NNEPA assessed fee. Within 90 days of

receipt of the correspondence, NNEPA shall review the data to determine whether

Page 49: THE NAVAJO NATION2015/09/04  · Two (2) conveyors to the coal silos for boiler U3 1,500 tons/hr (each) 1970 DC-5 CC-1A through CC-9A; CC-1B through CC-9B Three (3) enclosed cascading

Page 49 of 62

the assessed fee was in error. If an error was made, the overpayment shall be

credited to the account of the permittee. [40 CFR § 71.9(j)(3)].

IV.B. Blanket Compliance Statement [CAA §§113(a) and 113(e)(1) and 40 CFR § 51.212(c),

1. The permittee must comply with all conditions of this Part 71 permit. Any permit

noncompliance, including, but not limited to, violation of any applicable

requirement; any permit term or condition; any fee or filing requirement; any duty

to allow or carry out inspection, entry, or monitoring activities; or any regulation

or order issued pursuant to 40 CFR Part 71 constitutes a violation of the Clean Air

Act and is grounds for enforcement action; permit termination, revocation and

reissuance, or modification; or denial of a permit renewal application. It shall not

be a defense for a permittee in an enforcement action that it would have been

necessary to halt or reduce the permitted activity in order to maintain compliance

with the conditions of this permit [CAA § 113(a); 40 CFR §§ 71.6(a)(6)(i) and

(ii), 71.12].

technology-based emission limitation under this permit was due to an emergency.

To do so, the permittee shall demonstrate the affirmative defense of emergency

through properly signed, contemporaneous operating logs, or other relevant

evidence that:

a. an emergency occurred and that the permittee can identify the cause(s) of

the emergency;

b. the permitted facility was at the time being properly operated;

c. during the period of the emergency the permittee took all reasonable steps

to minimize levels of emissions that exceeded the emissions standards, or

other requirements in this permit; and

d. the permittee submitted notice of the emergency to NNEPA within 2

working days of the time when emissions limitations were exceeded due

to the emergency. This notice must contain a description of the

emergency, any steps taken to mitigate emissions, and corrective actions

taken. This notice fulfills the requirements of Condition III.C.2 of this

permit.

e. In any enforcement preceding the permittee attempting to establish the

occurrence of an emergency has the burden of proof.

2. An "emergency" means any situation arising from sudden and reasonably

unforeseeable events beyond the control of the permittee, including acts of God,

which situation requires immediate corrective action to restore normal operation,

Page 57: THE NAVAJO NATION2015/09/04  · Two (2) conveyors to the coal silos for boiler U3 1,500 tons/hr (each) 1970 DC-5 CC-1A through CC-9A; CC-1B through CC-9B Three (3) enclosed cascading

is consistent with 40 CFR § 71.5(a)(2), but NNEPA has failed to issue or deny the

renewal permit, then the permit shall not expire until the renewal permit has been

issued or denied and any permit shield granted pursuant to 40 CFR § 71.6(f) may

extend beyond the original permit term until renewal.

4. The permittee’s failure to have a Part 71 permit is not a violation of 40 CFR Part

71 until NNEPA takes final action on the permit renewal application. This

protection shall cease to apply if, subsequent to the completeness determination,

the permittee fails to submit any additional information identified as being needed

to process the application by the deadline specified in writing by NNEPA.

c. Description_of_Operations,_Products

The facility is a 2,250 net Megawatt coal-fired power plant. Bituminous coal is mined by

Peabody Energy at the Kayenta Mine complex and delivered by electric rail to NGS.

Coal is then transferred via enclosed conveyor systems to the boilers or to a storage pile

for later use.

The management of coal combustion residues and the delivery of limestone for the SO2

scrubbers is contracted to a third party entity but SRP remains the responsible party for

truck loading and unloading operations, material transfer, storage, and disposal activities.

Coal combustion residues include fly ash, bottom ash, and scrubber byproducts. Bottom

ash and scrubber byproducts are handled in a wet state which minimizes the potential for

dust emissions.

d. History

The facility consists of three (3) coal-fired utility boilers and two oil-fired auxiliary

boilers. The permittee receives the coal, which has an average sulfur content between

0.5% and 0.75% by weight, from a nearby coal mine. Coal-fired boilers U1, U2, and

U3 and oil-fired auxiliary boilers AUX-A and AUX-B commenced construction in

1970. The construction of these boilers predated EPA's preconstruction permit

regulations.

Particulate emissions from boilers U1 through U3 are controlled by Electrostatic

Precipitators (ESP). Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD) systems for SO2 control were

installed in 1997, 1998, and 1999 on boilers U3, U2, and U1, respectively. The

associated limestone handling system was constructed in 1997. In 2008, the source

received a PSD permit to install Low-NOX burners (LNBs) and Separated Over-fire Air

(SOFA) systems on the three existing boilers. The LNB/SOFA systems were installed

in 2009, 2010, and 2011 on boilers U3, U2, and U1, respectively. The permittee also

plan to install mercury control systems in 2015 for boilers U1 through U1 through U3

using powdered activated carbon (PAC) and calcium bromide.

On February 9, 2015, the permittee submitted a minor NSR permit application to both

US EPA and NNEPA for the construction of a refined coal system as part of the coal

handling operation at the facility. The refined coal system will be owned and operated

by a third-party which will be contracted out by SRP. This NSR permit application is

currently reviewed by US EPA.

e. Existing Approvals

The source has been operating under Part 71 Operating Permit NN-ROP-05-06, issued

on July 3, 2008, and the following approvals:

(a) PSD Permit #AZ 08-01, issued on November 20, 2008.

(b) Title V Permit Reopening #NN-ROP-05-06-A, issued on October 28, 2011.

(c) PSD Permit Amendment #AZ 08-01A, issued on February 6, 2012; amended on

August 26, 2015.

(d) Tribal Minor NSR Permit #T-0004-NN, issued on August 26, 2015

f. Proposed Modifications to the Part 71 Permit:

The permittee requested the following changes made to their Part 71 permit:

(1) Changes to the maximum heat input capacity of the boilers:

The maximum heat input capacity for each of the boilers U1, U2, and U3 has

been reduced from 7,725 MMBtu/hr to 7,410 MMBtu/hr. This change was

requested by the permittee because the heating value of coal received at this

plant has decreased in recent years and the revised heat input of 7,410

MMBtu/hr for each boiler better reflects the estimated maximum boiler

capacity. This change will not result in increases of emissions from these units

and is considered a minor permit modification.

(2) Revise the insignificant activities listed:

The list of insignificant activities and emissions in Section 1.j of this Statement

of Basis has been updated based on information submitted by the permittee on

July 24, 2014. The new emergency fire pump (NGS-120A) is subject to the

New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Stationary Compression

Ignition Internal Combustion Engines (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart IIII) and the

applicable requirements of this NSPS will be included in this Part 71 permit.

These changes are considered a significant permit modification.

(3) Update the unit description for coal hopper feeders (L1-L12):

The permittee installed a wet dust suppression system (Mee Fog System) to

control the twelve (12) coal hopper feeders (L1-L12) in 2007. This information

was not include in the permit application for the previous Part 71 permit, issued

on January 4, 2008. However, the installation of this control equipment

Page 4 of 29

decreases the particulate emissions from these units and is considered a minor

permit modification.

(4) Add operating limits for auxiliary boilers AUX A and AUX B:

In order to be qualify for “limited-use” units under 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart

DDDDD (National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for

Industrial, Commercial, and Institutional Boilers and Process Heaters), the

permittee requested to include an operating limit of 10% of the annual capacity

into this Part 71 renewal permit for the auxiliary boilers. This Part 71 permit

will also include additional recordkeeping requirements for these auxiliary

boilers. These proposed changes are considered significant permit

modifications.

(5) Installation of PM CEMS with Boilers U1, U2, U3:

In an addendum to Title V renewal application received on January 21, 2015,

the permittee stated that they plan to comply with the new PM emission limit in

National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Coal- and Oil-Fired

Electric Utility Steam Generating Units (NESHAP, Subpart UUUUU) using PM

Continuous Emission Monitoring Systems (CEMS). The PM CEMS have been

installed for each of the boilers U1, U2, U3. Since the PM emission limit in this

NESHAP, Subpart UUUUU is most stringent applicable PM emission limit for

boilers U1, U2, and U3, operating PM CEMS according to the NESHAP

requirements exempts the permittee from Continuous Assurance Monitoring

(CAM) requirements (40 CFR Part 64) and the existing CAM requirements for

boilers U1, U2, and U3 in the Part 71 permit could be removed. However, in an

addendum to Title V renewal application received on March 31, 2015, the

permittee stated that PM CEMS are still not operating properly and requested

the existing CAM requirements stayed in the Part 71 renewal permit until such

time the PM CEMS are fully in operation. Incorporating the PM CEM

requirements to the Part 71 permit is considered a significant permit

modification.

The procedure for reviewing this Part 71 renewal permit fulfills the minor permit

modification requirements specified in 40 CFR § 71.7(e)(1) and NNOPR § 405(D), and

the significant permit modification requirements specified in 40 CFR § 71.7(e)(3) and

NNOPR § 405(E).

*Note: This is an estimate on the PM/PM10/PM2.5 emissions from the welding and blasting operations, and VOC/HAP emissions

from the parts cleaning, surface coating operations, and the storage tanks.

(a) The potential to emit of PM10, PM2.5, SO2, VOC, CO and NOx are equal to or

greater than 100 tons per year. In addition, the potential to emit of HAPs from

Page 75: THE NAVAJO NATION2015/09/04  · Two (2) conveyors to the coal silos for boiler U3 1,500 tons/hr (each) 1970 DC-5 CC-1A through CC-9A; CC-1B through CC-9B Three (3) enclosed cascading

Page 13 of 29

this source is greater than 10 tons per year of a single HAP and greater than 25

tons per year of total HAPs. Therefore, this source is considered a major source

under 40 CFR § 71.2 (defining “major source” for purposes of the Federal

Operating Permit Program).

(b) This source is located in an attainment area and is in one of the 28 source

categories listed in 40 CFR § 52.21(b)(1)(i)(a). The potential to emit PM and

all relevant criteria pollutants of this source is greater than 100 tons per year.

Therefore, this source is an existing major source under the Prevention of

Significant Deterioration (PSD) program.

n. Actual Emissions

The following table shows the actual emissions from the source. This information

reflects the 2012 emission inventory data submitted by the permittee to NNEPA and

the greenhouse gas (GHG) information reported to U.S. EPA under the GHG

reporting program (40 CFR Part 98).

2. Tribe Information

a. General

The Navajo Nation has the largest land base of any tribe in the country, covering more

than 27,000 square miles in three states: Arizona, Utah, and New Mexico. The Navajo

Nation currently is home to more than 260,000 people. Industries on the Navajo Nation

include oil and natural gas production, coal and uranium mining, electric generation and

distribution, and tourism.

b. Local air quality and attainment status

All areas of the Navajo Nation are currently designated as attainment or unclassifiable

for all pollutants for which a National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) has

been established.

3. Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) Applicability

This source is in one of the 28 source categories listed in 40 CFR § 52.21(b)(1)(i)(a) and has

potential to emit PM and all relevant criteria pollutants greater than 100 tons per year.

Therefore, this source is considered an existing PSD major source. This source commenced

construction in 1970 and commenced modifications in 1997 (installation of the FGD

systems) and 2008 (installation of LBN/SOFA systems). The construction of this source

predated the PSD applicability date of June 1, 1975. Therefore, this source was not required

to obtain a preconstruction permit when it was constructed in 1970. The modifications in

1997 (installation of the FGD systems) did not result in an emissions increase above the PSD

significance thresholds in 40 CFR § 52.21. Therefore, the modification that commenced in

1997 did not trigger PSD.

A PSD permit was issued to this source on July 3, 2008 for the installation of LNB/SOFA

systems for the existing three boilers U1 through U3. An amendment to this PSD permit was

issued on February 8, 2012. According to the requirements in the amended PSD permit, the

permittee is required to comply with the following emission limits for each of the boilers U1

through U3:

(a) CO emissions shall not exceed the following (BACT requirements):

(1) 0.23 lb/MMBtu based on a 30-day rolling average, and

(2) 0.15 lb/MMBtu based on a 12-month rolling average.

(b) NOx emissions shall not exceed 0.24 lb/MMBtu based on a 30-day rolling average.

In addition, the permittee is required to install CO CEMS (Continuous Emissions Monitoring

System) to demonstrate compliance with the CO emission limits specified in the PSD

permits.

The above emission limits and the associated compliance monitoring, recordkeeping, and

reporting requirements have been included in this Part 71 permit renewal.

4. Federal Rule Applicability

(a) This source is subject to the source-specific Federal Implementation Plan (FIP) for

Navajo Generating Station, Navajo Nation (40 CFR § 49.5513) which was

promulgated on March 5, 2010 and later amended on August 8, 2014 to incorporate

the Regional Haze Best Available Retrofit Technology (BART) requirements.

Pursuant to 40 CFR § 49.5513(d), the permittee shall comply with the following

emission limits on a plant-wide basis:

(1) The SO2 emissions shall not exceed 1.0 lb/MMBtu averaged over any three-

hour period;

Page 77: THE NAVAJO NATION2015/09/04  · Two (2) conveyors to the coal silos for boiler U3 1,500 tons/hr (each) 1970 DC-5 CC-1A through CC-9A; CC-1B through CC-9B Three (3) enclosed cascading

Page 15 of 29

(2) The PM emissions shall not exceed 0.06 lb/MMBtu as averaged from at least

three sampling runs per stack, each at a minimum of 60 minutes in duration

and collecting a minimum sample of 30 dry standard cubic feet;

For the stacks of Units U1, U2, and U3, opacity shall not exceed 20% averaged over a

6 minute period, excluding condensed water droplets, or 40% averaged over 6 minutes

during absorber upset transition periods, pursuant to 40 CFR § 49.5513(d)(4).

For dust emissions associated with coal transfer and storage and other dust-generating

activities, opacity shall not exceed 20%, as determined using 40 CFR Part 60,

Appendix A-4, Method 9. The permittee is required to operate and maintain the

existing dust suppression methods for controlling dust from the coal handling and

storage facilities. A dust control plan was submitted by the permittee on June 4, 2010

and a revised plan was received on February 2, 2015. The revised dust control plan is

included in this Part 71 permit renewal as Attachment A.

The permittee shall also comply with the testing, monitoring, reporting, and

recordkeeping requirements specified in 40 CFR § 49.5513(e) and (f).

This FIP was amended on August 8, 2014 to include BART requirements (effective

October 7, 2014). Pursuant to 40 CFR § 49.5513(j)(3), total cumulative NOX

emissions from Units 1, 2, and 3, from January 1, 2009 to December 31, 2044 shall

not exceed the 2009-2044 NOX Cap (494,899 tons). Compliance with this NOx

emission limit must be demonstrated by the operation of the existing NOX CEMS.

The applicable operating, maintenance, recordkeeping, and reporting requirements

for the NOx CEMS specified in the FIP have been incorporated into this Part 71

permit.

This FIP also requires the source to select and implement one of four operating

scenarios listed under 40 CFR § 49.5513(j)(3)(i) to ensure compliance with the NOX

emission cap limit. However, pursuant to 40 CFR § 49.5513(j)(4)(i), the permittee

has until December 1, 2019 to notify U.S. EPA of its choice of operating scenario.

Therefore, the requirements associated with these four operating scenarios are not

included in this Part 71 permit. Pursuant to 40 CFR § 49.5513(j)(4)(iii), the source is

required to submit a permit revision application no later than December 31, 2020 to

incorporate the specific requirements, including compliance monitoring,

recordkeeping, and reporting requirements, associated with the selected operating

scenario.

(b) The existing boilers U1 through U3 are considered utility units under the definition of

40 CFR § 72.2. Therefore, these boilers are subject to the Acid Rain Program

requirements (40 CFR Part 72 through 40 CFR Part 78), pursuant to 40 CFR §

72.6(a)(3). An Acid Rain Renewal Application was received on June 19, 2013 and the

renewal of the acid rain permit will be issued with this Part 71 permit renewal.

Pursuant to 40 CFR § 72.9, the permittee shall comply with the following:

Page 78: THE NAVAJO NATION2015/09/04  · Two (2) conveyors to the coal silos for boiler U3 1,500 tons/hr (each) 1970 DC-5 CC-1A through CC-9A; CC-1B through CC-9B Three (3) enclosed cascading

Page 16 of 29

(1) The SO2 and NOX continuous emission monitoring requirements in 40 CFR

Part 75.

(2) Acid rain emissions limitations for sulfur dioxide in 40 CFR Part 73. Pursuant

to 40 CFR § 73.10(b) and the allowance allocations provided on October 30,

2000, the phase II SO2 allowance allocations for the boilers at this source are

listed in the table below:

Emission

Unit

SO2 Allowance for years

2010 and beyond (tons/yr)

Boiler U1 24,949

Boiler U2 23,354

Boiler U3 23,693

Facility Total 71,996

Beginning in 2007, the SO2 allowance allocations apply to the entire facility,

instead of each individual emission unit at this facility.

(3) Acid rain emissions limitations for nitrogen oxides in 40 CFR Part 76 for coal-

fired boilers. Beginning in calendar year 2008, the permittee shall comply with

the NOx emission limit of 0.40 lbs/MMBtu for each of the boilers U1, U2, and

U3, pursuant to 40 CFR § 76.7(a)(1).

(c) 40 CFR § 52.145(d) (Visibility Protection) includes the following specific

requirements for the three (3) coal-fired boilers at Navajo Generating Station: (1)

Pursuant to 40 CFR § 52.145(d)(2), the SO2 emissions from each of the coal fired

boilers (boilers U1, U2, and U3) shall not exceed 42 ng/J (0.1 lbs/MMBtu) heat input;

and (2) Pursuant to 40 CFR § 52.145(d)(3), compliance with the emission limit shall

be determined daily on a plant-wide rolling annual basis.

(d) This source is subject to the Regional Haze Rule (40 CFR § 51.308) because it is a

BART-eligible source (that is, a fossil-fuel fired steam electric plant of more than 250

MMBtu/hr heat input which was not in operation prior to August 7, 1962, was in

existence on August 7, 1977, and has the potential to emit greater than 250 tons per

year of any air pollutant, see 40 CFR § 51.301) that may reasonably be anticipated to

cause or contribute to any impairment of visibility in a mandatory Class I area.

Pursuant to 40 CFR § 51.308(e), States are required to submit implementation plans

that, among other measures, contain either emission limits representing Best Available

Retrofit Technology (BART) for BART-eligible sources that may reasonably be

anticipated to cause or contribute to any impairment of visibility in any mandatory

Class I area, or alternative measures that provide for greater reasonable progress than

BART. Under the Clean Air Act, 42 USC § 7601(d), and the Tribal Authority Rule, 40

CFR § 49.11(a), EPA may promulgate a federal implementation plan in the absence of

a tribal implementation plan. Under this authority, EPA promulgated a source-specific

Page 79: THE NAVAJO NATION2015/09/04  · Two (2) conveyors to the coal silos for boiler U3 1,500 tons/hr (each) 1970 DC-5 CC-1A through CC-9A; CC-1B through CC-9B Three (3) enclosed cascading

Page 17 of 29

FIP containing BART requirements for this source; the FIP is codified at 40 CFR §

49.5513(j).

(e) The Clean Air Mercury Rule (CAMR, CAA § 112(n)) was promulgated on May 18,

2005 and was developed to permanently cap and reduce the mercury (Hg) emissions

from coal-fired power plants. However, on February 8, 2008, the U.S. Court of

Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit issued a decision that vacated the Clean

Air Mercury Rule. See New Jersey v. EPA, 517 F.3d 574 (D.C. Cir. 2008). Therefore,

CAMR requirements are not included in this Part 71 permit renewal. However,

mercury emissions from utility power plants are regulated under 40 CFR Part 63,

Subpart UUUUU (see below for discussion of applicable 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart

UUUUU requirements).

(f) This existing source is a major source for HAPs. The three boilers at this source (U1

through U3) are considered existing coal-fired electric generating units (EGUs) and

are subject to National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Coal- and

Oil-Fired Electric Utility Steam Generating Units (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart UUUUU),

which were promulgated on February 16, 2012 and later revised on November 19,

2014.

Pursuant to 40 CFR § 63.9984(b), facilities subject to subpart UUUUU must comply

with the requirements of this NESHAP by April 16, 2015, unless they receive approval

for an extension to the compliance date under 40 CFR § 63.6(i). The permittee

requested an extension on the compliance date for the mercury provisions of this

NESHAP due to the technical difficulties associated with installing add-on mercury

controls. This extension request was granted by U.S. EPA and NNEPA on January 27,

2014. The extended compliance date for the mercury provisions is April 16, 2016. The

source must also comply with the following implementation schedule included in the

extension approval letter:

(1) By April 1, 2015, submit to NNEPA a title V permit modification application

that incorporates the final mercury control strategy. [Note: This permit

modification application was received on March 31, 2015]

(2) By October 1, 2015, commence construction to incorporate the mercury

control strategy on-site.

(3) By April 16, 2016, complete on-site construction and comply with all mercury

provisions of this NESHAP.

The permitee is also required to submit interim progress reports and a final report to

NNEPA and U.S. EPA.

The permittee shall comply with the following emission limits, pursuant to 40 CFR §

63.9991(a) and Table 2 of this NESHAP:

Page 80: THE NAVAJO NATION2015/09/04  · Two (2) conveyors to the coal silos for boiler U3 1,500 tons/hr (each) 1970 DC-5 CC-1A through CC-9A; CC-1B through CC-9B Three (3) enclosed cascading

Page 18 of 29

(1) By April 16, 2015, filterable PM emissions shall not exceed 0.03 lb/MMBtu or

0.3 lb/MWh.

(2) By April 16, 2015, SO2 emissions shall not exceed 0.2 lb/MMBtu or 1.5

lb/MWh.

(3) By April 16, 2016, Mercury (Hg) emissions shall not exceed 1.2 lb/TBtu or

0.013 lb/GWh.

The permitttee plans to use a combination of calcium bromide application and

powdered active carbon (PAC) injection system to control the Hg emissions from the

existing coal-fired boilers. Implementation of these control technologies will require

the installation of calcium bromide and PAC storage and handling equipment. The

construction and operation of this Hg control system is permitted under Tribal Minor

NSR Permit #T-0004-NN, issued on August 26, 2015.

In the permit application submitted on March 31, 2015, the permittee stated that they

will demonstrate compliance with the SO2 emission limit in this NESHAP using

CEMS and demonstrate compliance with the Hg emission limit using sorbent trap

monitoring system for each stack. The permittee plans to use PM CEMS to show

compliance with the filterable PM emissions limit under this NESHAP. However, the

newly installed PM CEMS are not currently working properly. The permittee

requested to conduct quarterly PM performance stack testing to show compliance with

the PM emission limit until such time the PM CEMS operate properly, which is

expected to occur in late 2015.

The associated compliance, monitoring, testing, notification, recordkeeping, and

reporting requirements are included in the permit as Attachment C. Please note that the

requirements pertaining to Hg emissions are not applicable until April 16, 2016.

(g) Each of the boilers at this source (U1 through U3, AUXA, and AUXB) has a

maximum heat input greater than 250 MMBtu/hr. However, these boilers commenced

construction before August 17, 1971 and the permittee stated that no modification or

reconstruction to the boilers has occured since the construction of these boilers.

Therefore, the New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Fossil-Fuel-Fired

Steam Generators (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart D), which apply to generators that

commenced construction or modification after August 17, 1971, are not applicable to

the boilers at this source.

(h) This existing source is a major source for HAPs. Boilers U1 throught U3 are subject

to NESHAP for Coal- and Oil-Fired Electric Utility Steam Generating Units (40 CFR

Part 63, Subpart UUUUU). Therefore, these three boilers are not subject to the

National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Industrial,

Commercial, and Institutional Boilers and Process Heaters (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart

DDDDD), pursuant to 40 CFR § 63.7491(a). However, the No. 2 fuel oil-fired

auxiliary boilers (AUX A and AUX B) are subject to this NESHAP. According to the

Page 81: THE NAVAJO NATION2015/09/04  · Two (2) conveyors to the coal silos for boiler U3 1,500 tons/hr (each) 1970 DC-5 CC-1A through CC-9A; CC-1B through CC-9B Three (3) enclosed cascading

Page 19 of 29

initial notification submitted by the permittee on May 30, 2013, the auxiliary boilers

operate less than 10% of the annual capacity and are considered “limited-use” units,

as defined in 40 CFR § 63.7575.

Pursuant to 40 CFR § 63.7500(c), limited-use boilers are only required to complete a

tune-up every 5 years. There are no specific emission limits, energy assessment, or

operating limits for these type of boilers. Pursuant to 40 CFR § 63.7495(b), the

compliance date for the existing affected units is January 31, 2016.

In addition, 40 CFR § 63.7555(d)(3) requires the permitting authority to include a

federally enforceable condition in the permittee’s Part 71 permit to limit the operation

of the auxiliar boilers (AUX A and AUX B) to not more than 10% of the annual

capacity for each unit, in order to ensure they continue to qualify for “limited-use”

unit status. The permittee has requested the inclusion of this opertating limit in the

Part 71 renewal permit.

(i) The coal handling operations at this source process more than 200 tons of coal per

day. However, all of the coal handling operations at this source commenced

construction before October 24, 1974 and the permittee stated that no modification to

the coal handling operations has occured since the construction of these units.

Therefore, pursuant to 40 CFR § 60.250, the requirements of the New Source

Performance Standards for Coal Preparation and Processing Plants (40 CFR Part 60,

Subpart Y) are not applicable.

(j) Lime is considered a nonmetallic mineral as defined in 40 CFR § 60.671. The

limestone handling system at this source commenced construction after August 31,

1983 and performs grinding operations. Therefore, pursuant to 40 CFR § 60.670, the

limestone handling system at this source is subject to the requirements of the New

Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Nonmetallic Mineral Processing Plants

(40 CFR Part 60, Subpart OOO). The affected facilities include each grinding mill,

screening operation, belt conveyor, storage bin, and enclosed truck loading station

associated with the limestone handling system.

(1) NMHC + NOX emissions shall not exceed 4.0 g/KW-hr or 3.0 g/HP-hr.

(2) PM emissions shall not exceed 0.2 g/KW-hr or 0.15 g/HP-hr.

Engine NGS-120A has a displacement less than 9 liters per cylinder. Pursuant to 40

CFR § 60.4207(b), the permittee must use diesel fuel that meets the requirements of

40 CFR § 80.510(b) for nonroad diesel fuel (ultra low sulfur diesel fuel), except that

any existing diesel fuel purchased (or otherwise obtained) prior to October 1, 2010,

may be used until depleted.

The permittee shall comply with the operating requirements specified 40 CFR §

60.4211(a) and the engine certification requirements in 40 CFR § 60.4211(c). There

are no initial notification requirements for this emergency fire pump, pursuant to 40

CFR § 60.4214(b).

(l) The emergency generators and fire pumps at this source are considered stationary

reciprocating internal combustion engines (RICE) and are subject to the NESHAP for

Stationary Reciprocating Internal Combustion Engines (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart

Page 83: THE NAVAJO NATION2015/09/04  · Two (2) conveyors to the coal silos for boiler U3 1,500 tons/hr (each) 1970 DC-5 CC-1A through CC-9A; CC-1B through CC-9B Three (3) enclosed cascading

ZZZZ). Stationary diesel generators EG1, EG2, EG3, NPG-746, and NGS-120A are

subject to this NESHAP. All the affected units are compression ignition engines (CI).

The applicable requirements for the affected units can be divided into the following

three categories:

(1) Units with no specific requirements:

For the existing emergency generators with capacities greater than 500 hp (EG1), the

permittee is not required to meet the requirements of this subpart and of 40 CFR 63,

Subpart A, pursuant to 40 CFR § 63.6590(b)(3)(iv). No initial notification is required.

(2) Units with specific requirements:

For the existing emergency generators with capacities equal to or less than 500 hp

(EG2, EG3, and NPG-746), the permittee shall comply with the following work

(m) Tank NGS-064-A is used to store gasoline. However, this tank commenced

construction in 1991. Therefore, pursuant to 40 CFR § 60.110, the New Source

Performance Standards for Storage Vessels for Petroleum Liquids for Which

Construction, Reconstruction, or Modification Commenced After June 11, 1973, and

Prior to May 19, 1978 (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart K) are not applicable.

(n) Tank NGS-064-A is used to store gasoline and commenced construction in 1991.

However, the maximum capacity of this tank is less than 40,000 gallons. Therefore,

pursuant to 40 CFR § 60.110a, the New Source Performance Standards for Storage

Vessels for Petroleum Liquids for Which Construction, Reconstruction, or

Modification Commenced After May 19, 1978 and Prior to July 23, 1984 (40 CFR

Part 60, Subpart Ka) are not applicable.

(o) The diesel storage tank NGS-075B has a maximum storage capacity greater than 75

cubic meters (19,813 gallons) and was constructed after July 23, 1984. Since the

diesel fuel stored in this tank has a maximum true vapor pressure of less than 3.5 kPa,

tank NGS-075B is exempt from the requirements of the New Source Performance

Standards for Volatile Organic Liquid Storage Vessels for Which Construction,

Reconstruction, or Modification Commenced After July 23, 1984 (40 CFR Part 60,

Subpart Kb), pursuant to 40 CFR § 60.110b(b). Therefore, the requirements of this

NSPS are not applicable.

(p) The parts washers at this source do not use halogenated HAP solvents. Therefore,

pursuant to 40 CFR § 63,460(a), these units are not subject to the requirements of the

NESHAP for Halogenated Solvent Cleaning (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart T).

(q) There are specific SO2, NOX, and CO emission limits (in lbs/MMBtu) for boilers U1

through U3. The FIP for this source (40 CFR § 49.5513) and the PSD Permit #AZ 08-

01, issued on November 20, 2008, require the source to install and operate CEMS to

ensure continuous compliance with the SO2, NOX, and CO emission limits. These

requirements have been incorporated into this part 71 renewal permit. Therefore, the

SO2, NOx, and CO emissions from boilers U1 through U3 are exempt from the

requirements of 40 CFR Part 64 (Compliance Assurance Monitoring (CAM)),

pursuant to 40 CFR § 64.2(b)(1)(vi).

Page 85: THE NAVAJO NATION2015/09/04  · Two (2) conveyors to the coal silos for boiler U3 1,500 tons/hr (each) 1970 DC-5 CC-1A through CC-9A; CC-1B through CC-9B Three (3) enclosed cascading

Page 23 of 29

The FIP for this source (40 CFR § 49.5513) has specific PM emission limits for boilers

U1 through U3 and the CAM requirements used to apply to these units. However, the

permittee recently installed PM CEMS for each of the boilers U1, U2, and U3 to

demonstrate compliance with the PM emission limits specified in NESHAP, Subpart

UUUUU. Since the PM emission limit in this NESHAP is more stringent than the PM

emission limits in FIP, compliance with the PM emission limit for NESHAP, Subpart

UUUUU using the new PM CEMS is sufficient to demonstrate compliance with PM

emission limit in FIP. Therefore, the PM emissions from boilers U1 through U3 are

exempt from the CAM requirements, pursuant to 40 CFR § 64.2(b)(1)(vi). A permit

condition (Condition II.N) has been added to this Part 71 permit renewal to require the

operation of PM CEMS with the stacks associated with boilers U1, U2, and U3.

However, in an addendum to Title V renewal application received on March 31, 2015,

the permittee stated that PM CEMS are still not operating properly and requested the

existing CAM requirements stayed in the Part 71 renewal permit until such time the

PM CEMS are fully in operation. Therefore, the CAM requirements from the current

Part 71 permit are still included in the renewal permit. The CAM requirements

(included as Condition II.N of the renewal permit) are summarized in the table below

and will still apply until such time the PM CEMS operate properly:

each calcium bromide deliver, the VMT of each delivery, and determine the

12-month rolling total.

(5) At least once during each calendar week, the permittee shall perform a visible

emissions survey for each PAC silo (Silos A and B). The survey shall be

performed during daylight hours by an individual trained in EPA Method 22

while the equipment is in operation. If visible emissions are detected during

the survey, the permittee shall take corrective action so that within 24 hours

no visible emissions are detected.

6. Endangered Species Act

Pursuant to Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act (ESA), 16 U.S.C. § 1536, and its

implementing regulations at 50 CFR Part 402, USEPA is required to ensure that any action

authorized, funded, or carried out by USEPA is not likely to jeopardize the continued existence

of any Federally-listed endangered species or threatened species or result in the destruction or

adverse modification of such species’ designated critical habitat. NNEPA is issuing this federal

Part 71 permit pursuant to a delegation from USEPA. However, this permit does not authorize

the construction of new emission units or emission increases from existing units, nor does it

otherwise authorize any other physical modifications to the facility or its operations. Therefore,

NNEPA and USEPA have concluded that the issuance of this permit will have no effect on listed

species or their critical habitat.

7. Use of All Credible Evidence

Determinations of deviations from, continuous or intermittent compliance with, or violations of

the permit are not limited to the testing or monitoring methods required by the underlying

regulations or this permit; other credible evidence (including any evidence admissible under the

Federal Rules of Evidence) must be considered by the source, NNEPA, and U.S. EPA in such

determinations.

8. NNEPA Authority

PM, PM10, and PM2.5 Emissions From the Coal Storage Piles (Fugitive Emissions)

Company Name: Navajo Generating StationAddress: 5 miles east of Page, off U.S. Highway 98, Page, AZ 86040

Permit No.: NN-OP-15-06Reviewer: ERG/YC

Date: September 4, 2015

1. Emission Factors:

According to AP-42, Chapter 13.2.4 - Aggregate Handling and Storage Piles (11/06), the PM/PM10 emission factors for aggregate handling process can be estimated from the following equation:

Ef = k x 0.0032 x (U/5)1.3

(M/2)1.4

where:Ef = Emission Factor (lbs/ton)k = Particle size multiplers = 0.74 for PM, 0.35 for PM10, and 0.053 for PM2.5U = Mean wind speed (mph) = 3.2 mph (provided by the source based on the data in 1999)M = Moisture content (%) = 3 % (provided by the source)

Therefore,PM Emission Factor = 0.00075 lbs/ton

PM10 Emission Factor = 0.00036 lbs/tonPM 2.5 Emission Factor = 0.00005 lbs/ton

2. Potential to Emit PM/PM10/PM2.5 after Control:

Max. Throughput Rate: 3,300 tons/hr Control Efficiency : 50% for water suppression

PTE of PM after Control (tons/yr) = 3,300 tons/yr x 0.00075 lbs/ton x 8760 hr/yr x 1 ton/2000 lbs x (1-50%) = 5.43 tons/yr

PTE of PM10 after Control (tons/yr) = 3,300 tons/yr x 0.00036 lbs/ton x 8760 hr/yr x 1 ton/2000 lbs x (1-50%) = 2.57 tons/yr

PTE of PM2.5 after Control (tons/yr) = 3,300 tons/yr x 0.00005 lbs/ton x 8760 hr/yr x 1 ton/2000 lbs x (1-50%) = 0.39 tons/yr

PM, PM10, and PM2.5 Emissions From the Limestone Storage Piles (Fugitive Emissions)

Company Name: Navajo Generating StationAddress: 5 miles east of Page, off U.S. Highway 98, Page, AZ 86040

Permit No.: NN-OP-15-06Reviewer: ERG/YC

Date: September 4, 2015

1. Emission Factors:

According to AP-42, Chapter 13.2.4 - Aggregate Handling and Storage Piles (11/06), the PM/PM10 emission factors for aggregate handling process can be estimated from the following equation:

Ef = k x 0.0032 x (U/5)1.3

(M/2)1.4

where:Ef = Emission Factor (lbs/ton)k = Particle size multiplers = 0.74 for PM, 0.35 for PM10, and 0.053 for PM2.5U = Mean wind speed (mph) = 3.2 mph (provided by the source based on the data in 1999)M = Moisture content (%) = 1 % (provided by the source)

Therefore,PM Emission Factor = 0.0035 lbs/ton

PM10 Emission Factor = 0.0017 lbs/tonPM2.5 Emission Factor = 0.0003 lbs/ton

2. Potential to Emit PM/PM10/PM2.5 after Control:

Max. Throughput Rate: 600 tons/yr Control Efficiency : 50% for water suppression

PTE of PM after Control (tons/yr) = 600 tons/yr x 0.0035 x 8760 hr/yr x 1 ton/2000 lbs x (1-50%) = 4.60 tons/yr

PTE of PM10 after Control (tons/yr) = 600 tons/yr x 0.0035 x 8760 hr/yr x 1 ton/2000 lbs x (1-50%) = 2.17 tons/yr

PTE of PM2.5 after Control (tons/yr) = 600 tons/yr x 0.0003 x 8760 hr/yr x 1 ton/2000 lbs x (1-50%) = 0.33 tons/yr

1. Emission Factors:According to AP42, Chapter 13.2.2 - Unpaved Roads (11/06), the PM/PM10/PM2.5 emission factors for unpaved roads can be estimated from the following equation:

E = k x (s/12)a x (w/3)b x (365-p)/365

where:E = emission factor (lb/vehicle mile traveled)s = surface material silt content (%) = 5.1 % (AP-42, Table 13.2.2-1)w = mean vehicle weight (tons) = 78.1 tons (see the calculations below)k = empirical constant = 4.9 for PM, 1.5 for PM10, and 0.15 for PM2.5a = empirical constant = 0.7 for PM, 0.9 for PM10, and 0.9 for PM2.5b = empirical constant = 0.45

p = number of days per year with 0.01 inches precipitation 60 (see Fig 13.2.2-1 in AP42)

PM Emission Factor = 4.9 x (5.1/12)0.7 x (78.1/3)0.45 x (365-60)/365 = 9.8 lbs/milePM10 Emission Factor = 1.5 x (5.1/12)0.9 x (78.1/3)0.45 x (365-60)/365 = 2.52 lbs/milePM2.5 Emission Factor = 0.15 x (5.1/12)0.9 x (78.1/3)0.45 x (365-60)/365 = 0.25 lbs/mile

Note: As defined in the September 6, 1995 memorandum from John S. Seitz of US EPA on the subject of "Calculating Potential to Emit for Emergency Generators", an emergency generator's sole function is to provide back-up power when power from the local utility is interrupted. The only circumstances under which an emergency generator would operate when utility power is available are during operator training orbrief maintenance checks. The generator's potential to emit is based on an operating time of 500 hours per year as set forth in the EPA memo.

1.0 INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE

Salt River Project’s (SRP’s) Navajo Generating Station (NGS) facility is committed to

responsible and sustainable stewardship of the environment; and compliance with the

requirements of the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA’s) Federal

Implementation Plan (FIP) for NGS, recorded in the Federal Register under 40 CFR Part 49. This

Dust Control Plan (DCP) describes methods and procedures to minimize emissions from point

and non-point dust sources and maintain compliance with the FIP.

FIP conditions in 40 CFR Part 49 §49.24(d)(3) specify that:

“Each owner or operator shall operate and maintain the existing dust suppression

methods for controlling dust from the coal handling and storage facilities. Within 90

days after promulgation of these regulations the owner or operator shall submit to the

Regional Administrator a description of the dust suppression methods for controlling

dust from the coal handling and storage facilities, fly ash handling and storage, and

road sweeping activities. Each owner or operator shall not emit dust with opacity

greater than 20% from any crusher, grinding mill, screening operation, belt conveyor,

truck loading or unloading operation, or railcar unloading station.”

2.0 FACILITY DETAILS

NGS is a participant owned generating plant managed by SRP. NGS is located on leased land 5

miles southeast of Page Arizona at 4365 feet (elevation). The participants are U.S. Bureau of

Reclamation (24.3% ownership), Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (21.2%), Salt

River Project (21.7%), Arizona Public Service (14.0%), Nevada Power (11.3%) and Tucson

Electric Power Co. (7.5%). NGS is a three-unit coal fired power plant (supercritical design

tangentially-fired boilers) generating 2250 net megawatts of power.

Bituminous coal is mined by Peabody Energy at the Black Mesa Mine Complex and delivered by

electric rail to NGS. Coal is then transferred via enclosed conveyor systems for burning in the

boilers or stacked out to a storage pile for later use.

The management of coal combustion residues and the delivery of limestone for the SO2 scrubbers

is contracted to a third party entity but SRP remains the responsible party for truck loading and

unloading operations, material transfer, storage, and disposal activities. Coal combustion residues

include flyash, bottom ash, and scrubber byproducts. Bottom ash and scrubber byproducts are

handled in a wet state which minimizes the potential for dust emissions and these materials are

not addressed in the FIP and in this document.

3.0 GEOGRAPHY AND CLIMATE

NGS is located in an arid desert environment receiving an annual average of seven and half

inches of precipitation. The surrounding geologic formations include outcroppings of the Carmel

formation, Page Sandstone, and Navajo Sandstone. Weathering of these formations have created

substrates of unconsolidated aeolian sands and partially stabilized dune deposits with sparse

vegetation.

4.0 DUST SUPPRESSION METHODS

The FIP requires in 40 CFR Part 49 §49.24(d)(3) a description of the dust suppression methods

for coal handling and storage facilities, fly ash handling and storage, and road sweeping activities.

The tables contained in this section outline preventive and mitigating control measures as

guidelines to minimize dust emissions from paved and unpaved roads, storage piles, and the

material handling related to coal, fly ash, and limestone.

4.1 Roadways

Dust emissions from roadways are mitigated using control measures outlined below. Main

trafficked areas are sprayed with water daily (weather permitted) and speed limits are observed.

During winter months, ice formation may preclude water spraying due to safety consideration.

Roadway Non-Point Sources: One or more of the following control measures will be

implemented to minimize dust emissions from roadway sources.

Material Storage

Control techniques applicable to outdoor material storage piles fall into distinct categories

as related to handling operations (including traffic around piles) and mitigating wind

erosion. In both cases, the control can be achieved by implementing one or more of the

following strategies: (a) source extent reduction, (b) source improvement related to work

practices and transfer equipment (load-in and load-out operations), and (c) surface

treatments.

Material Disturbance and Wind Erosion Control Measures:

Source control 1. Minimize exposed surface area

2. Minimize surface disturbances and material handling

Source improvement 1. Reduce drop height when handling material

2. Maintain moisture and crust, as applicable

Recording Observations. Opacity observations shall be recorded to the nearest 5 percent at 15-second intervals on an observational record sheet. A minimum of 24 observations shall be recorded. Each momentary observation recorded shall be deemed to represent the average opacity of emissions for a 15-second period. Data Reduction. Opacity shall be determined as an average of 24 consecutive observations recorded at 15-second intervals. Divide the observations recorded on the record sheet into sets of 24 consecutive observations. A set is composed of any 24 consecutive observations. Sets need not be consecutive in time and in no case shall two sets overlap. For each set of 24 observations, calculate the average by summing the opacity of the 24 observations and dividing this sum by 24. Record the average opacity on a record sheet.

Compliance, Monitoring, Testing, Notification, Recordkeeping, and Reporting Requirements under NESHAP, Subpart UUUUU for Coal- and Oil-Fired Electric Utility Steam Generating Units

[Based on the rule version dated as March 24, 2015]

Note: The requirements pertaining to Hg emissions are not applicable until April 16, 2016.

I. GENERAL COMPLIANCE REQUIREMENTS

a. At all times you must operate and maintain any affected source, including associated air pollution control equipment and monitoring equipment, in a manner consistent with safety and good air pollution control practices for minimizing emissions. Determination of whether such operation and maintenance procedures are being used will be based on information available to the EPA Administrator which may include, but is not limited to, monitoring results, review of operation and maintenance procedures, review of operation and maintenance records, and inspection of the source. [40 CFR § 63.10000(b)]

b. If your coal-fired or solid oil derived fuel-fired EGU or IGCC EGU does not qualify as a LEE for total non-mercury HAP metals, individual non-mercury HAP metals, or filterable particulate matter (PM), you must demonstrate compliance through an initial performance test and you must monitor continuous performance through either use of a particulate matter continuous parametric monitoring system (PM CPMS), a PM CEMS, or, for an existing EGU, compliance performance testing repeated quarterly. [40 CFR § 63.10000(c)(1)(iv)]

c. If your EGU uses wet or dry flue gas desulfurization technology (this includes limestone injection into a fluidized bed combustion unit), you may apply a second alternative to HCl CEMS by installing and operating a sulfur dioxide (SO2) CEMS installed and operated in accordance with part 75 of this chapter to demonstrate compliance with the applicable SO2 emissions limit. [40 CFR § 63.10000(c)(1)(v)]

d. If your coal-fired EGU does not qualify as a LEE for Hg, you must demonstrate initial and continuous compliance through use of a sorbent trap monitoring system, in accordance with appendix A to this subpart. [40 CFR § 63.10000(c)(1)(vi)]

(1) You may choose to use separate sorbent trap monitoring systems to comply with this subpart: One sorbent trap monitoring system to demonstrate compliance with the numeric mercury emissions limit during periods other than startup or shutdown and the other sorbent trap monitoring system to report average mercury concentration during startup periods or shutdown periods.

(2) You may choose to use one sorbent trap monitoring system to demonstrate compliance with the mercury emissions limit at all times (including startup periods and shutdown periods) and to report average mercury concentration. You must follow the startup or shutdown requirements that follow and as given in Table 3 to this subpart for each coal-fired, liquid oil-fired, or solid oil-derived fuel-fired EGU.

e. If you demonstrate compliance with any applicable emissions limit through use of a continuous monitoring system (CMS), where a CMS includes a continuous parameter monitoring system (CPMS) as well as a continuous emissions monitoring system (CEMS), you must develop a site-specific monitoring plan and submit this site-specific monitoring plan, if requested, at least 60

Page 142: THE NAVAJO NATION2015/09/04  · Two (2) conveyors to the coal silos for boiler U3 1,500 tons/hr (each) 1970 DC-5 CC-1A through CC-9A; CC-1B through CC-9B Three (3) enclosed cascading

Attachment C - Page 2 of 24

days before your initial performance evaluation (where applicable) of your CMS. This requirement also applies to you if you petition the Administrator for alternative monitoring parameters under 40 CFR § 63.8(f). This requirement to develop and submit a site-specific monitoring plan does not apply to affected sources with existing monitoring plans that apply to CEMS and CPMS prepared under appendix B to part 60 or part 75 of this chapter, and that meet the requirements of 40 CFR § 63.10010. Using the process described in 40 CFR § 63.8(f)(4), you may request approval of monitoring system quality assurance and quality control procedures alternative to those specified in 40 CFR § 63.10000(d)(1) and, if approved, include those in your site-specific monitoring plan. The monitoring plan must address the provisions in 40 CFR §§ 63.10000(d)(2) through (5). [40 CFR § 63.10000(d)(1)]

f. If requested by the Administrator, you must submit the monitoring plan (or relevant portion of the plan) at least 60 days before the initial performance evaluation of a particular CMS, except where the CMS has already undergone a performance evaluation that meets the requirements of 40 CFR § 63.10010 (e.g., if the CMS was previously certified under another program). [40 CFR § 63.10000(d)(3)]

g. You must operate and maintain the CMS according to the site-specific monitoring plan. [40 CFR § 63.10000(d)(4)]

h. The provisions of the site-specific monitoring plan must address the following items: [40 CFR § 63.10000(d)(5)]

(1) Installation of the CMS or sorbent trap monitoring system sampling probe or other interface at a measurement location relative to each affected process unit such that the measurement is representative of control of the exhaust emissions (e.g., on or downstream of the last control device).

(2) Performance and equipment specifications for the sample interface, the pollutant concentration or parametric signal analyzer, and the data collection and reduction systems.

(3) Schedule for conducting initial and periodic performance evaluations.

(4) Performance evaluation procedures and acceptance criteria (e.g., calibrations), including the quality control program in accordance with the general requirements of 40 CFR § 63.8(d).

(5) On-going operation and maintenance procedures, in accordance with the general requirements of 40 CFR §§ 63.8(c)(1)(ii), (c)(3), and (c)(4)(ii).

(6) Conditions that define a CMS that is out of control consistent with 40 CFR § 63.8(c)(7)(i) and for responding to out of control periods consistent with 40 CFR §§ 63.8(c)(7)(ii) and (c)(8).

(7) On-going recordkeeping and reporting procedures, in accordance with the general requirements of 40 CFR §§ 63.10(c), (e)(1), and (e)(2)(i), or as specifically required under Subpart UUUUU.

i. As part of your demonstration of continuous compliance, you must perform periodic tune-ups of your EGU(s), according to 40 CFR § 63.10021(e). [40 CFR § 63.10000(e)]

Page 143: THE NAVAJO NATION2015/09/04  · Two (2) conveyors to the coal silos for boiler U3 1,500 tons/hr (each) 1970 DC-5 CC-1A through CC-9A; CC-1B through CC-9B Three (3) enclosed cascading

Attachment C - Page 3 of 24

II. TESTING AND INITIAL COMPLIANCE REQUIREMENTS

a. For each of your affected EGUs, you must demonstrate initial compliance with each applicable emissions limit through performance testing. Where two emissions limits are specified for a particular pollutant (e.g., a heat input-based limit in lb/MMBtu and an electrical output-based limit in lb/MWh), you may demonstrate compliance with either emission limit. For a particular compliance demonstration, you may be required to conduct one or more of the following activities in conjunction with performance testing: collection of hourly electrical load data (megawatts); establishment of operating limits according to 40 CFR § 63.10011 and Tables 4 and 7 to Subpart UUUUU; and CMS performance evaluations. In all cases, you must demonstrate initial compliance no later than the applicable date in 40 CFR § 63.10005(f) for tune-up work practices for existing EGUs, in 40 CFR § 63.9984 for other requirements for existing EGUs, and in 40 CFR § 63.10005(g) for all requirements for new EGUs. [40 CFR § 63.10005(a)]

b. To demonstrate initial compliance using either a CMS that measures HAP concentrations directly (i.e., an Hg, HCl, or HF CEMS, or a sorbent trap monitoring system) or an SO2 or PM CEMS, the initial performance test consists of 30- (or, if emissions averaging for Hg is used, 90-) boiler operating days of data collected by the initial compliance demonstration date specified in 40 CFR § 63.9984(f) with the certified monitoring system. Pollutant emission rates measured during startup periods and shutdown period (as defined in 40 CFR § 63.10042) are not to be included in the compliance demonstration, except as otherwise provided in 40 CFR § 63.10000(c)(1)(vi)(B) and 40 CFR § 63.10000(a)(2)(iii). [40 CFR § 63.10005(a)(2)]

(1) The 30- (or, if applicable, 90-) boiler operating day CMS performance test must demonstrate compliance with the applicable Hg, HCl, HF, PM, or SO2 emissions limit in Table 1 or 2 to 40 CFR 63, Subpart UUUUU.

(2) You must collect hourly data from auxiliary monitoring systems (i.e., stack gas flow rate, CO2, O2, or moisture, as applicable) during the performance test period, in order to convert the pollutant concentrations to units of the standard. If you choose to comply with an electrical output-based emission limit, you must also collect hourly electrical load data during the performance test period.

c. CMS requirements. If, for a particular emission or operating limit, you are required to (or elect to) demonstrate initial compliance using a continuous monitoring system, the CMS must pass a performance evaluation prior to the initial compliance demonstration. If a CMS has been previously certified under another state or federal program and is continuing to meet the on-going quality-assurance (QA) requirements of that program, then, provided that the certification and QA provisions of that program meet the applicable requirements of 40 CFR §§ 63.10010(b) through (h), an additional performance evaluation of the CMS is not required under this subpart. [40 CFR § 63.10005(d)]

d. You may demonstrate initial compliance with the applicable SO2 emissions limit in Table 2 to this subpart through use of an SO2 CEMS installed and operated in accordance with part 75 of this chapter or appendix B to this subpart, as applicable. You may also demonstrate compliance with a filterable PM emission limit in Table 2 to this subpart through use of a PM CEMS installed, certified, and operated in accordance with 40 CFR § 63.10010(i). Initial compliance is achieved if the arithmetic average of 30-boiler operating days of quality-assured CEMS data, expressed in units of the standard (see 40 CFR § 63.10007(e)), meets the applicable SO2 or PM emissions limit in Table 2 to this subpart. Use Equation 19-19 of Method 19 in appendix A-7 to part 60 of this chapter to calculate the 30-boiler operating day average emissions rate. [40 CFR § 63.10005(d)(1)]

Page 144: THE NAVAJO NATION2015/09/04  · Two (2) conveyors to the coal silos for boiler U3 1,500 tons/hr (each) 1970 DC-5 CC-1A through CC-9A; CC-1B through CC-9B Three (3) enclosed cascading

Attachment C - Page 4 of 24

e. For affected EGUs that are either required to or elect to demonstrate initial compliance with the applicable Hg emission limit in Table 2 of this subpart using sorbent trap monitoring systems, initial compliance must be demonstrated no later than the applicable date specified in 40 CFR § 63.9984(f) for existing EGUs. Initial compliance is achieved if the arithmetic average of 30-boiler operating days of quality-assured sorbent trap monitoring system data, expressed in units of the standard (see section 6.2 of appendix A to this subpart), meets the applicable Hg emission limit in Table 2 to this subpart. [40 CFR § 63.10005(d)(3)]

f. All affected EGUs are subject to the work practice standards in Table 3 of 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart UUUUU. As part of your initial compliance demonstration, you must conduct a performance tune-up of your EGU according to 40 CFR § 63.10021(e). [40 CFR § 63.10005(e)]

g. For existing affected sources a tune-up may occur prior to April 16, 2012, so that existing sources employing neural network combustion controls, up to 54 calendar months (48 months from promulgation plus 180 days) after the date that is specified for your source in 40 CFR § 63.9984 and according to the applicable provisions in 40 CFR § 63.7(a)(2) as cited in Table 9 to this subpart to demonstrate compliance with this requirement. If a tune-up occurs prior to such date, the source must maintain adequate records to show that the tune-up met the requirements of this standard. [40 CFR § 63.10005(f)]

h. You must follow the startup and shutdown requirements given in Table 3 of 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart UUUUU. [40 CFR § 63.10005(j)]

i. You must submit a Notification of Compliance Status summarizing the results of your initial compliance demonstration, as provided in 40 CFR § 63.10030. [40 CFR § 63.10005(k)]

Subsequent performance tests and tune-ups

j. If you are required to meet an applicable tune-up work practice standard, you must conduct a performance tune-up according to 40 CFR § 63.10021(e). For EGUs employing neural network combustion optimization systems during normal operation, each performance tune-up specified in 40 CFR § 63.10021(e) must be no more than 48 calendar months after the previous performance tune-up. [40 CFR § 63.10006(i)(2)]

k. You must report the results of performance tests and performance tune-ups within 60 days after the completion of the performance tests and performance tune-ups. The reports for all subsequent performance tests must include all applicable information required in 40 CFR § 63.10031. [40 CFR § 63.10006(j)]

Methods and other procedures for the performance tests

l. Except as otherwise provided in this section, you must conduct all required performance tests according to 40 CFR §§ 63.7(d), (e), (f), and (h). You must also develop a site-specific test plan according to the requirements in 40 CFR § 63.7(c). [40 CFR § 63.10007(a)]

m. If you use CEMS (Hg, HCl, SO2, or other) to determine compliance with a 30- (or, if applicable, 90-) boiler operating day rolling average emission limit, you must collect quality- assured CEMS data for all unit operating conditions, including startup and shutdown (see 40 CFR § 63.10011(g) and Table 3 to 40 CFR 63, Subpart UUUUU), except as otherwise provided in 40 CFR § 63.10020(b). Emission rates determined during startup periods and shutdown periods (as defined in 40 CFR § 63.10042) are not to be included in the compliance determinations, except as otherwise provided in 40 CFR §§ 63.10000(c)(1)(vi)(B) and 63.10005(a)(2)(iii). [40 CFR § 63.10007(a)(1)]

Attachment C - Page 5 of 24

n. You must conduct each performance test (including traditional 3-run stack tests, 30-boiler operating day tests based on CEMS data (or sorbent trap monitoring system data), and 30-boiler operating day Hg emission tests for LEE qualification) according to the requirements in Table 5 to Subpart UUUUU. [40 CFR § 63.10007(b)]

o. To use the results of performance testing to determine compliance with the applicable emission limits in Table 2 to Subpart UUUUU, proceed as follows: [40 CFR § 63.10007(e)]

(1) Except for a 30-boiler operating day performance test based on CEMS (or sorbent trap monitoring system) data, if measurement results for any pollutant are reported as below the method detection level (e.g., laboratory analytical results for one or more sample components are below the method defined analytical detection level), you must use the method detection level as the measured emissions level for that pollutant in calculating compliance. The measured result for a multiple component analysis (e.g., analytical values for multiple Method 29 fractions both for individual HAP metals and for total HAP metals) may include a combination of method detection level data and analytical data reported above the method detection level.

(2) If the limits are expressed in lb/MMBtu or lb/TBtu, you must use the F-factor methodology and equations in sections 12.2 and 12.3 of EPA Method 19 in appendix A-7 to part 60 of this chapter. In cases where an appropriate F-factor is not listed in Table 19-2 of Method 19, you may use F-factors from Table 1 in section 3.3.5 of appendix F to part 75 of this chapter, or F-factors derived using the procedures in section 3.3.6 of appendix to part 75 of this chapter. Use the following factors to convert the pollutant concentrations measured during the initial performance tests to units of lb/scf, for use in the applicable Method 19 equations:

(i) Multiply SO2 ppm by 1.66 × 10−7;

(ii) Multiply Hg concentrations (µg/scm) by 6.24 × 10−11.

(3) To determine compliance with emission limits expressed in lb/MWh or lb/GWh, you must first calculate the pollutant mass emission rate during the performance test, in units of lb/h. For Hg, if a CEMS or sorbent trap monitoring system is used, use Equation A-2 or A-3 in appendix A to this subpart (as applicable). In all other cases, use an equation that has the general form of Equation A-2 or A-3, replacing the value of K with 1.66 × 10−7 lb/scf-ppm for SO2, 9.43 × 10−8 lb/scf-ppm for HCl (if an HCl CEMS is used), 5.18 × 10−8 lb/scf-ppm for HF (if an HF CEMS is used), or 6.24 × 10−8 lb-scm/mg-scf for HAP metals and for HCl and HF (when performance stack testing is used), and defining Ch as the average SO2, HCl, or HF concentration in ppm, or the average HAP metals concentration in mg/dscm. This calculation requires stack gas volumetric flow rate (scfh) and (in some cases) moisture content data (see 40 CFR §§ 63.10005(h)(3) and 63.10010). Then, if the applicable emission limit is in units of lb/GWh, use Equation A-4 in appendix A to this subpart to calculate the pollutant emission rate in lb/GWh. In this calculation, define (M)h as the calculated pollutant mass emission rate for the performance test (lb/h), and define (MW)h as the average electrical load during the performance test (megawatts). If the applicable emission limit is in lb/MWh rather than lb/GWh, omit the 103 term from Equation A-4 to determine the pollutant emission rate in lb/MWh.

p. If you elect to (or are required to) use CEMS to continuously monitor Hg, HCl, HF, SO2, or PM emissions (or, if applicable, sorbent trap monitoring systems to continuously collect Hg emissions data), the following default values are available for use in the emission rate calculations during startup periods or shutdown periods (as defined in 40 CFR § 63.10042). For the purposes of this subpart, these default values are not considered to be substitute data. [40 CFR § 63.10007(f)]

If you use CEMS (or, if applicable, sorbent trap monitoring systems) to comply with a heat input-based emission rate limit, you may use the following diluent cap values for a startup or shutdown hour in which the measured CO2 concentration is below the cap value or the measured O2 concentration is above the cap value:

(i) For an IGCC EGU, you may use 1% for CO2 or 19% for O2.

(ii) For all other EGUs, you may use 5% for CO2 or 14% for O2.

(2) Default electrical load. If you use CEMS to continuously monitor Hg, HCl, HF, SO2, or PM emissions (or, if applicable, sorbent trap monitoring systems to continuously collect Hg emissions data), the following default value is available for use in the emission rate calculations during startup periods or shutdown periods (as defined in 40 CFR § 63.10042). For the purposes of this subpart, this default value is not considered to be substitute data. For a startup or shutdown hour in which there is heat input to an affected EGU but zero electrical load, you must calculate the pollutant emission rate using a value equivalent to 5% of the maximum sustainable electrical output, expressed in megawatts, as defined in section 6.5.2.1(a)(1) of Appendix A to 40 CFR Part 75. This default electrical load is either the nameplate capacity of the EGU or the highest electrical load observed in at least four representative quarters of EGU operation. For a monitored common stack, the default electrical load is used only when all EGUs are operating (i.e., combusting fuel) are in startup or shutdown mode, and have zero electrical generation. Under those conditions, a default electrical load equal to 5% of the combined maximum sustainable electrical load of the EGUs that are operating but have a total of zero electrical load must be used to calculate the hourly electrical output-based pollutant emissions rate.

q. Upon request, you shall make available to the EPA Administrator such records as may be necessary to determine whether the performance tests have been done according to the requirements of 40 CFR § 63.10007. [40 CFR § 63.10007(g)]

r. You may use emissions averaging method as described in 40 CFR § 63.10009 to demonstrate compliance with the filterable PM, SO2, or Hg emission limits. [40 CFR § 63.10009]

s. You must comply with the applicable monitoring, installation, operation, and maintenance requirements specified in 40 CFR § 63.10010 for CEMS. [40 CFR § 63.10010]

t. You must demonstrate initial compliance with each emissions limit that applies to you by conducting performance testing. [40 CFR § 63.10011(a)]

u. If you use CEMS or sorbent trap monitoring systems to measure a HAP (e.g., Hg or HCl) directly, the first 30-boiler operating day (or, if alternate emissions averaging is used for Hg, the 90-boiler operating day) rolling average emission rate obtained with certified CEMS after the applicable date in §63.9984 (or, if applicable, prior to that date, as described in 40 CFR § 63.10005(b)(2)), expressed in units of the standard, is the initial performance test. Initial compliance is demonstrated if the results of the performance test meet the applicable emission limit in Table 2 to this subpart. [40 CFR § 63.10011(c)(1)]

v. For a unit that uses a CEMS to measure SO2 or PM emissions for initial compliance, the first 30 boiler operating day average emission rate obtained with certified CEMS after the applicable date in 40 CFR § 63.9984 (or, if applicable, prior to that date, as described in 40 CFR § 63.10005(b)(2)), expressed in units of the standard, is the initial performance test. Initial compliance is demonstrated if the results of the performance test meet the applicable SO2 or

x. You must determine the fuel whose combustion produces the least uncontrolled emissions, i.e., the cleanest fuel, either natural gas or distillate oil, that is available on site or accessible nearby for use during periods of startup or shutdown. [40 CFR § 63.10011(f)(1)]

y. Your cleanest fuel, either natural gas or distillate oil, for use during periods of startup or shutdown determination may take safety considerations into account. [40 CFR § 63.10011(f)(2)]

z. You must follow the startup or shutdown requirements as given in Table 3 to subpart UUUUU for each coal-fired EGU. [40 CFR § 63.10011(g)]

TABLES TO SUBPART UUUUU OF PART 63

Table 3 to Subpart UUUUU of Part 63—Work Practice Standards

As stated in §40 CFR § 63.9991, you must comply with the following applicable work practice standards:

If your EGU is . . . You must meet the following . . .

1. An existing EGU Conduct a tune-up of the EGU burner and combustion controls at least each 36 calendar months, or each 48 calendar months if neural network combustion optimization software is employed, as specified in 40 CFR § 63.10021(e).

3. A coal-fired, liquid oil-fired, or solid oil-derived fuel-fired EGU during startup

If you choose to comply using paragraph (1) of the definition of “startup” in 40 CFR § 63.10042, you must operate all CMS during startup. Startup means either the first-ever firing of fuel in a boiler for the purpose of producing electricity, or the firing of fuel in a boiler after a shutdown event for any purpose. Startup ends when any of the steam from the boiler is used to generate electricity for sale over the grid or for any other purpose (including on site use). For startup of a unit, you must use clean fuels as defined in 40 CFR § 63.10042 for ignition. Once you convert to firing coal, residual oil, or solid oil-derived fuel, you must engage all of the applicable control technologies except dry scrubber and SCR. You must start your dry scrubber and SCR systems, if present, appropriately to comply with relevant standards applicable during normal operation. You must comply with all applicable emissions limits at all times except for periods that meet the applicable definitions of startup and shutdown in this subpart. You must keep records during startup periods. You must provide reports concerning activities and startup periods, as specified in 40 CFR § 63.10011(g) and 40 CFR § 63.10021(h) and (i). For startup of an EGU, you must use one or a combination of the clean fuels defined in 40 CFR § 63.10042 to the maximum extent possible throughout the startup period. You must have sufficient clean fuel capacity to engage and operate your PM control device within one hour of adding coal, residual oil, or solid oil-derived fuel to the unit. You must meet the startup period work practice requirements as identified in 40 CFR § 63.10020(e).

Attachment C - Page 21 of 24

Once you start firing coal, residual oil, or solid oil-derived fuel, you must vent emissions to the main stack(s). You must comply with the applicable emission limits within 4 hours of start of electricity generation. You must engage and operate your particulate matter control(s) within 1 hour of first firing of coal, residual oil, or solid oil-derived fuel. You must start all other applicable control devices as expeditiously as possible, considering safety and manufacturer/supplier recommendations, but, in any case, when necessary to comply with other standards made applicable to the EGU by a permit limit or a rule other than this Subpart that require operation of the control devices. Relative to the syngas not fired in the combustion turbine of an IGCC EGU during startup, you must either: (1) flare the syngas, or (2) route the syngas to duct burners, which may need to be installed, and route the flue gas from the duct burners to the heat recovery steam generator. If you choose to use just one set of sorbent traps to demonstrate compliance with Hg emission limits, you must comply with all applicable Hg emission limits at all times; otherwise, you must comply with all applicable emission limits at all times except for startup or shutdown periods conforming to this practice. You must collect monitoring data during startup periods, as specified in 40 CFR § 63.10020(a) and (e). You must keep records during startup periods, as provided in 40 CFR §§ 63.10032 and 63.10021(h). Any fraction of an hour in which startup occurs constitutes a full hour of startup. You must provide reports concerning activities and startup periods, as specified in 40 CFR §§ 63.10011(g), 63.10021(i), and 63.10031.

4. A coal-fired, liquid oil-fired, or solid oil-derived fuel-fired EGU during shutdown

You must operate all CMS during shutdown. You must also collect appropriate data, and you must calculate the pollutant emission rate for each hour of shutdown. While firing coal, residual oil, or solid oil-derived fuel during shutdown, you must vent emissions to the main stack(s) and operate all applicable control devices and continue to operate those control devices after the cessation of coal, residual oil, or solid oil-derived fuel being fed into the EGU and for as long as possible thereafter considering operational and safety concerns. In any case, you must operate your controls when necessary to comply with other standards made applicable to the EGU by a permit limit or a rule other than this Subpart and that require operation of the control devices. If, in addition to the fuel used prior to initiation of shutdown, another fuel must be used to support the shutdown process, that additional fuel must be one or a combination of the clean fuels defined in 40 CFR § 63.10042 and must be used to the maximum extent possible. Relative to the syngas not fired in the combustion turbine of an IGCC EGU during shutdown, you must either: (1) flare the syngas, or (2) route the syngas to duct burners, which may need to be installed, and route the flue gas from the duct burners to the heat recovery steam generator. You must comply with all applicable emission limits at all times except during startup periods and shutdown periods at which time you must meet this work practice. You must collect monitoring data during shutdown periods, as specified in 40 CFR § 63.10020(a). You must keep records during shutdown periods, as
