SECTION 225.605 APPLICABILITY


 

Section 225.605  Applicability

 

a)         As an alternative to compliance with the emissions standards of Section 225.230(a), the owner or operator of specified EGUs in this Subpart F located at Fisk, Crawford, Joliet, Powerton, Waukegan, and Will County power plants may elect for all of those EGUs as a group to demonstrate compliance pursuant to this Subpart F, which establishes control requirements and emissions standards for NOx, PM, SO2, and mercury.  For this purpose, ownership of a specified EGU is determined based on direct ownership, by holding a majority interest in a company that owns the EGU or EGUs, or by the common ownership of the company that owns the EGU, whether through a parent-subsidiary relationship, as a sister corporation, or as an affiliated corporation with the same parent corporation, provided that the owner or operator has the right or authority to submit a CAAPP application on behalf of the EGU.

 

b)         A specified EGU is a coal-fired EGU listed in Appendix A, irrespective of any subsequent changes in ownership of the EGU or power plant, the operator, unit designation, or name of unit.

 

c)         The owner or operator of each of the specified EGUs electing to demonstrate compliance with Section 225.230(a) pursuant to this Subpart must submit an application for a CAAPP permit modification to the Agency, as provided for in Section 225.220, that includes the information specified in Section 225.610 that clearly states the owner's or operator's election to demonstrate compliance with Section 225.230(a) pursuant to this Subpart F.

 

d)         If an owner or operator of one or more specified EGUs elects to demonstrate compliance with Section 225.230(a) pursuant to this Subpart F, then all specified EGUs owned or operated in Illinois by the owner or operator as of December 31, 2006, as defined in subsection (a) of this Section, are thereafter subject to the standards and control requirements of this Subpart F.  Such EGUs are referred to as a Combined Pollutant Standard (CPS) group.

 

e)         If an EGU is subject to the requirements of this Section, then the requirements apply to all owners and operators of the EGU, and to the CAIR designated representative for the EGU.
