Permit(s) Applied for: 

Article 19 Air Title V Facility 

Project is Located: 

Newburgh, Orange County 

Project Description: 

Roseton Generating Station began commercial operation in 1974. The facility consists of two 

Combustion Engineering tangentially-fired steam generating boilers rated at 600 megawatts 

(MW) each. Both units are capable of firing No. 6 fuel oil and natural gas as primary fuels. In 

addition, both units are capable of firing natural gas or No. 2 fuel oil as their ignition fuel during 

warm-up. An auxiliary boiler is also installed at the facility to provide heat and light for the 

facility if the larger units are not in use. The facility is a major source for Oxides of Nitrogen, 

Sulfur Dioxide and Particulates. 

New Best Available Retrofit Technology (BART 6NYCRR Part 249) requirements are as 

follows: NOx - the existing emission limit is lowered from 0.25 lb/mmBtu to 0.20 lb/mmBtu (24-

hr averaging during ozone season, 30-day averaging during non-ozone season) through wind box 

optimization effective 1/1/2014; SO2 - the annual weighted average sulfur limit for No. 6 oil is 

reduced from 1.3% to 1.0% effective 1/1/2014; PM - the existing limits of 0.1 lb/mmBtu on 

Units 1 and 2 remain in place with no additional controls. 

By acceptance of this permit, the permittee agrees that the permit is contingent upon strict 

compliance with the ECL, all applicable regulations, the General Conditions specified and any 

Special Conditions included as part of this permit.
