3745-18-02 or 3745-18-07 to 3745-18-94 of the
Administrative Code during any calendar day in which natural gas is the only
fuel burned.
(B) Fuel burning
equipment, stationary gas turbines, jet engine test stands and stationary
internal combustion engines which have rated heat input capacities equal to, or
less than, ten MM Btu per hour total rated capacity are exempt from paragraphs
(D), (F) and (G) of this rule and from rules
3745-18-02
or 3745-18-07 to 3745-18-94 of the Administrative Code.
(C) Process equipment which has a rated
capacity equal to, or less than, one thousand pounds per hour process weight
input is exempt from paragraph (E) of this rule and from rules
3745-18-02 or 3745-18-07 to 3745-18-94 of the
Administrative Code.
(D) Except as

Administrative Code, no owner or operator of any oil-fired steam generating
unit shall cause or permit the maximum emission of sulfur dioxide from any
source to exceed 1.6 pounds of sulfur dioxide per MM Btu actual heat
input.
(E) Except as otherwise
indicated in paragraph (H) of this rule or in rules
3745-18-02 or 3745-18-07 to 3745-18-94 of the
Administrative Code, no owner or operator of any process equipment shall cause
or permit the maximum emission of sulfur dioxide from any source to exceed the
amounts indicated by the following equations:
(1) In Cuyahoga, Lake, Stark, Summit and
Trumbull counties:
AER = 20 P0.67
Where P is the process weight rate in tons per hour and AER is
the allowable emission rate in pounds of sulfur dioxide per hour.
(2) In all counties not listed in
paragraph (E)(1) of this rule:
AER = 30 P0.67
Where P is the process weight rate in tons per hour and AER is
the allowable emission rate in pounds of sulfur dioxide per hour.
(F) Except as otherwise
indicated in paragraph (H) of this rule or in rules
3745-18-02 or 3745-18-07 to 3745-18-94 of the
Administrative Code, no owner or operator of any stationary gas turbine shall
cause or permit the maximum emission of sulfur dioxide from any source to
exceed 0.5 pounds of sulfur dioxide per MM Btu actual heat input.
(G) Except as otherwise indicated in
paragraph (H) of this rule or in rules
3745-18-02
or 3745-18-07 to 3745-18-94 of the Administrative Code, no owner or
operator of any stationary internal combustion engine shall cause or permit the
maximum emission of sulfur dioxide from any source to exceed 0.5 pounds of
sulfur dioxide per MM Btu actual heat input.
(H) Notwithstanding the provisions of
paragraphs (D) to (G) of this rule, the requirements of 40 CFR Part
60 shall be
followed where applicable.
