Acid Rain NO X Emission Reduction Program-Permit Modification for Alternative Emission Limitation
AGENCY:
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION:
Notice of permit modification adopting Alternative Emission Limitation.
SUMMARY:
Under Title IV of the Clean Air Act, EPA established the Acid Rain NO X Emission Reduction Program to reduce the adverse effects of acidic deposition. EPA adopted nitrogen oxides ( NO X ) emission limits and issued permits to affected sources. EPA is issuing Acid Rain permit modifications for two units at a source. Each permit modification adds a new NO X emission limitation, i.e., Alternative Emission Limitation for NO X emissions to the permit for the source. The Alternative Emission Limitations are less stringent than the standard limit for this type of unit but are the minimum rate that the units can achieve during long-term dispatch operation with low NO X burners.
ADDRESSES:
Administrative Records. The administrative record for the permit modification, except information protected as confidential, may be viewed during normal operating hours at the following location: EPA Region 3, 1650 Arch Street 14th floor, Philadelphia, PA.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
In today's action, EPA is issuing permit modifications that add to a permit Alternative Emission Limitations for NO X emissions for two units in accordance with Parts 72 and 76 of the Acid Rain Program regulations. The units involved, Morgantown Units 1 and 2, are located in Charles County, Maryland and will be required to meet an annual average emissions limit for NO X of 0.63 lb/mmBtu and 0.64 lb/mmBtu, respectively, instead of the otherwise applicable standard limit of 0.45 lb/mmBtu. The units' designated representative is James S. Potts.
