### Request for ParallelProcessing ofBestAvailable RetrofitTechnologYJBART} PermitModifications
Dear Regional Administrator Enck: Joe Martens Commissioner

TheNew York State Department ofEnvironmental Conservation (Department) has been activelyworking to finalize permitmodifications for sources that are subjectto the Best Available RetrofitTechnology (BART) program. Once completed, these modified Title V pennits are to be submittedto the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as revisions to the New York State Implementation Plan (SIP) for Regional Haze.
Attached is atable providing a status update for each ofthe BART facilities. As ofApril 4,2012, ten (10) ofthe BART permits havebeen issued, while two (2) oftheremaining seven (7) draftpermits havebeen submitted to EPA for review. All draftpermits have beenpublished in the Department's Environmental Notice Bulletin. (The Department also has one BART source complying through a consent decree, and one BART facility shutting down and relinquishing its airpennits. All relevant supporting materials will be providedto EPA.)
Pursuantto recent discussions with EPA, the Department is hereby requesting parallel processingby EPA ofany Title V permitmodifications whichhave not yetbeen issuedin final fonn for inclusion in the regional haze SIP. This will allow for the expeditedprocessing ofthese draftpermits as they go through the lengthypublic commentperiod and 45-day EPA review period.
The Department is providing, with this letter, copies ofthe Title V permit modifications thathavebeenfinalized thus far, which incorporate the necessary BART requirements for subject sources. The draftpermits for·the remaining BART sources are·also beingprovided at this time so EPA can initiate the approval process. These documents arebeing provided electronically on an enclosed CD.

### We look forward to continuing to work with you to address New York's obligations underthe Regional Haze program. Should you have any immediate questions orrequire additional information, please contact Mr. Scott Griffin at (518) 402-8396. Sincerely,
