(A) Beginning January 1, 2000 or, for a unit
subject to Section 409(b) of the Clean Air
Act, the date on which the unit is required to meet acid rain
emission reduction requirements for SO2, the owner or
operator of a group two coal-fired boiler with a cell burner boiler, cyclone
boiler, a wet bottom boiler, or a vertically fired boiler shall not discharge,
or allow to be discharged, emissions of NOx to the
atmosphere in excess of the following limits, except as provided in rule
3745-103-62
or
3745-103-63
of the Administrative Code:
(1)
Sixty-eight hundredths pound per MMBtu of heat input on an annual average basis
for cell burner boilers. The NO
x emission control
technology on which the emission limitation is based is plug-in combustion
controls or non-plug-in combustion controls. Except as provided in paragraph
(D) of rule
3745-103-57
of the Administrative Code, the owner or operator of a unit with a cell burner
boiler that installs non-plug-in combustion controls shall comply with the
emission limitation applicable to cell burner boilers.
(2) Eighty-six hundredths pound per MMBtu of
heat input on an annual average basis for cyclone boilers with a maximum
continuous steam flow at one hundred per cent of load of greater than one
thousand sixty, in thousands of pounds per hour. The NOx
emission control technology on which the emission limitation is based is
natural gas reburning or selective catalytic reduction.
(3) Eighty
-four hundredths pound per MMBtu of heat input on an
annual average basis for wet bottom boilers, with a maximum continuous steam
flow at one hundred per cent of load of greater than four hundred fifty, in
thousands of pounds per hour. The NO
x emission control
technology on which the emission limitation is based is natural gas reburning
or selective catalytic reduction.
(4) Eighty hundredths pound per MMBtu of heat
input on an annual average basis for vertically fired boilers. The
NOx emission control technology on which the emission
limitation is based is combustion controls.
(B) The owner or operator shall determine the
annual average NO
x emission rate, in pound per MMBtu,
using the methods and procedures specified in 40 CFR Part
75.
