This is an Administrative Order requiring your company to comply with WAC 173

- 40 0

- 151 by taking the a ctions which are described below. Chapter 70.94 RCW authorizes the Washington

State Department of Ecology ’s Air Quality Program (Ecology) to issue Administrative Orders to require compliance with the requirements of Chapter 70.94 RCW and regulations issued to implement it

.

Ecology has determined that portions of your facility are subject to the provisions of the federal

and state visibility protection program (WAC 173

- 400

- 151 and 40 CFR Part 51, Subpart P)

. The

r ules requir e th at the S tate determin e what technologies and level of emission control constitutes Best Available Retrofit Technology (BART) for the eligible emission units at your facility

. T he rules also require the installation and use of those emission controls on th e BART

- eligible

emission units

. The emission controls are to be installed as expeditiously as possible, but in no

even t can the State allow them to start operatio n later than five years after the S tate’s Regional Haze SIP amendment is approved by the United States Environmental Protection Agency ( EPA )

.
