[EPA–R09–OAR–2011–0024; FRL–9256–9] 

Notice of Re-Issuance of the 

Prevention of Significant Deterioration 

Applicability Determination for the 

Carlsbad Energy Center Project, 

Carlsbad, CA 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of final action. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces that on 

January 10, 2011, the EPA issued a 

determination that the proposal to 

modify the Encina Power Station is not 

subject to the Prevention of Significant 

Deterioration (PSD) permit program 

under the Clean Air Act (CAA). This 

determination corrects a typographical 

error in the emission data in our 

previous determination issued on 

October 13, 2010. Therefore, the 

determination issued on January 10, 

2011 replaces the one EPA issued on 

October 13, 2010. 

ADDRESSES: EPA’s determination and 

other related documents used in the 

determination are available

r9-permits-issued.html. These 

documents are also available for public 

inspection during normal business

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Carlsbad Energy Center Project is a 

proposed 540 MW net (558 MW gross) 

combined cycle natural gas-fired power 

plant that will be built at the existing 

Encina Power Station in the city of 

Carlsbad in San Diego County, 

California. The Carlsbad Energy Center 

Project will replace three of five existing 

natural gas-fired boilers located at the 

eastern end of the property site at the 

Encina Power Station. The Encina 

Power Station is owned by NRG Energy, 

Inc. (NRG), and currently has a total of 

five natural gas-fired boilers, which are 

allowed to use No. 6 fuel oil during 

curtailments, and three fuel oil storage 

tanks. The Encina Power Station is an 

existing major source, and the addition 

of the Carlsbad Energy Center Project 

would be a physical change to the 

facility. 

EPA Region 9 has authority to 

implement the Clean Air Act Prevention 

of Significant Deterioration Program at 

40 CFR 52.21 for San Diego County, 

California. Because the Carlsbad Energy 

Center Project is a physical change to an 

existing major stationary source, EPA 

Region 9 evaluated whether the physical 

change is a major modification by 

determining whether the physical 

change will result in a net emission 

increase for pollutants regulated under 

the PSD permit program. We received 

emissions information from NRG on 

June 5, 2009, as well as additional 

information since that time. This 

emissions information addressed the 

following criteria pollutants associated 

with the modification: nitrogen oxides, 

carbon monoxide, particulates, volatile 

organic compounds, and sulfur oxides. 

On October 13, 2010, we issued a 

determination that the Carlsbad Energy 

Center Project is not subject to the PSD 

permit program under the Clean Air Act 

(CAA). EPA published a Federal 

Register notice for this action on 

November 19, 2010 (75 FR 70916– 

70917). 

It has recently come to EPA’s 

attention that Table 2 of the October 13, 

2010 determination contained a 

typographical error in the emissions 

data. Specifically, EPA changed the net 

emission increase for nitrogen oxides 

(NOx) in Table 2 of the PSD 

applicability analysis from 39.2 tpy 

(which is incorrect) to 31.2 tpy. The 

new emission level is still below the 

PSD significant threshold for that 

pollutant. EPA made this correction and 

issued a corrected determination on 

January 10, 2011. No other changes to 

the previous determination were made. 

Therefore, the determination issued on 

January 10, 2011 replaces the one issued 

on October 13, 2010. 

If available, judicial review of EPA’s 

determination may be sought by filing a 

petition for review pursuant to section 

307(b)(1) of the CAA in the United 

States Court of Appeals for the Ninth 

Circuit within 60 days from the date on 

which this notice is published in the 

Federal Register.
