6.0 EMISSION REDUCTION MARKET SYSTEM (ERMS)

> 6.1 Description of ERMS
>
> The ERMS is a "cap and trade" market system for major stationary
> sources located in the Chicago ozone nonattainment area. It is
> designed to reduce VOM emissions from stationary sources to contribute
> to further reasonable progress toward attainment, as required by
> Section 182(c) of the Clean Air Act.
>
> The ERMS addresses VOM emissions during a seasonal allotment period
> from May 1 through September 30. Once the ERMS begins, participating
> sources must hold "allotment trading units" (ATUs) for their actual
> seasonal VOM emissions. Each year participating sources are issued
> ATUs based on allotments set during initial issuance of the sources'
> CAAPP permits. These allotments are established from historical VOM
> emissions or "baseline emissions" lowered to provide the emission
> reduction from stationary sources required for further progress.
>
> By December 31 of each year, the end of the reconciliation period
> following the seasonal allotment period, each source shall have
> sufficient ATUs in its account to cover its actual VOM emissions
> during the preceding season. An account's balance as of December 31
> will include any valid ATU transfer agreements entered into as of
> December 31 of the given year, provided such agreements are promptly
> submitted to the Illinois EPA for entry into the account database. The
> Illinois EPA will then retire ATUs in sources' accounts in amounts
> equivalent to their seasonal emissions. When a source does not appear
> to have sufficient ATUs in its account, the Illinois EPA will issue a
> notice to the source to begin the process for Emissions Excursion
> Compensation.
>
> In addition to receiving ATUs pursuant to their allotments,
> participating sources may also obtain ATUs from the market, including
> ATUs bought from other participating sources and general participants
> in the ERMS that hold ATUs (35 IAC 205.630) and ATUs issued by the
> Illinois EPA as a consequence of VOM emission reductions from an
> Emission Reduction Generator or an Intersector Transaction (35 IAC
> 205.500 and 205.510). During the reconciliation period, sources may
> also buy ATUs from a secondary reserve of ATUs managed by the Illinois
> EPA, the Alternative Compliance Market Account (35 IAC 205.710).
> Sources may also transfer or sell the ATUs that they hold to other
> sources or participants (35 IAC 205.630).
>
> 6.2 Applicability
>
> This source is considered a "participating source" for purposes of the
> ERMS, 35 IAC Part 205.
>
> 6.3 Obligation to Hold Allotment Trading Units (ATUs)
>
> a\. Pursuant to 35 IAC 205.150(c)(1) and 205.720, and as further
> addressed by condition 6.8, as of December 31 of each year, this
> source shall hold ATUs in its account in an amount not less than its
> VOM emissions during the preceding seasonal allotment period (May 1 -
> September 30) not including VOM emissions from the following, or the
> source shall be subject to "emissions excursion compensation," as
> described in Condition 6.4.
>
> i\. VOM emissions from insignificant units and activities as
> identified in Section 3 of this permit, in accordance with 35 IAC
> 205.220;

> approved by the Illinois EPA, pursuant to 35 IAC 205.750; and
>
> v\. VOM emissions from certain new and modified emission units as
> addressed by Section 6.7(b), if applicable, in accordance with 35 IAC
> 205.320(f).
>
> b\. Notwithstanding the above condition, in accordance with 35 IAC
> 205.150(c)(2), if a source commences operation of a major
> modification, pursuant to 35 IAC Part 203, the source shall hold ATUs
> in an amount not less than 1.3 times its VOM emissions attributable to
> such major modification during the seasonal allotment period,
> determined in accordance with the construction permit for such major
> modification or applicable provisions in Section 7.0 of this permit.
>
> 6.4 Market Transaction
>
> a\. The source shall apply to the Illinois EPA for and obtain
> authorization for a Transaction Account prior to conducting any market
> transactions, as specified at 35 IAC 205.610(a).

> designated by the source and approved by the Illinois EPA in
> accordance with 35 IAC 205.620 and the transfer must be submitted to
> the Illinois EPA for entry into the Transaction Account database.
>
> 6.5 Emission Excursion Compensation
>
> Pursuant to 35 IAC 205.720, if the source fails to hold ATUs in
> accordance with Condition 6.3, it shall provide emissions excursion
> compensation in accordance with the following:
>
> a\. Upon receipt of an Excursion Compensation Notice issued by the
> Illinois EPA, the source shall purchase ATUs from the ACMA in the
> amount specified by notice, as follows:
>
> i\. The purchase of ATUs shall be in an amount equivalent to 1.2 times
> the emissions excursion; or
>
> ii\. If the source had an emissions excursion for the seasonal
> allotment period immediately before the period for the present
> emission excursion, the source shall purchase ATUs in an amount
> equivalent to 1.5 times the emissions excursion.
>
> b\. If requested in accordance with paragraph (c) below or in the
> event that the ACMA balance is not adequate to cover the total
> emissions excursion amount, the Illinois EPA will deduct ATUs
> equivalent to the specified amount or any remaining portion thereof
> from the ATUs to be issued to the source for the next seasonal
> allotment period.
>
> c\. Pursuant to 35 IAC 205.720(c), within 15 days of receipt of an
