### RE:**Proposed SIP** **Revision: PM-2.5** **Significant Monitoring** **Concentration Dear** **Mr. McGrath:** 

### On**August 21,** **2012, in** **response to** **federal rulemaking** **related to** **the New** **Source Review** **Prevention of** **Significant Deterioration** **of Air** **Quality (NSR-PSD)** **program, Montana** **submitted proposed** **revisions to** **its State** **Implementation Plan** **(SIP). More** **specifically, Montana** **submitted revisions** **to the** **Administrative Rules** **of Montana** **(ARM) 17.8.818(7)(a)(iii)** **and ARM** **17.8.820 for the** **addition of** 

### Significant**Monitoring Concentration** **(SMC) and** **Significant Impact** **Levels (SILs)** **for PM-2.5,** **respectively. The** **SMC was** **later revised** **and the** **SILs vacated** **by the** **Federal Courts** **Sierra Club** **v. EPA.** **705 F.3d** **458, 403** **U.S. App.** **D.C. 318** **(2013)), and** **EPA subsequently** **revised the** **affected NSR** 

### PSD**rules accordingly** **(78 FR** **73698). To** **date, EPA** **has not** **acted on** **Montana's August** **21, 2012,** **SIP**

### submittal**titled "Provisions** **for Major** **Source Permitting** **Regarding the** **Emissions of** **Fine Particulate** **Matter" (PM-2.5).** 

### Therefore,**this SIP** **submittal, which** **includes revised** **SMC for** **PM-2.5 in** **ARM 17.8.818(7)(a)(iii)** **and removes** **the PM-2.5** **SILs from** **ARM 17.8.820,** **supersedes and** **replaces these** **aspects of** **the August** **21, 2012,** **SIP submittal.** **The Montana** **Board of** **Environmental Review** **adopted this** **change on** **September 26,** **2014, as** **set forth** **in MAR** **Notice No.** **17-361, and** **the change** **became state-effective** **on October** **10, 2014.** **This SIP** **submittal contains** **one hard** **copy and** **one electronic** **copy of** **the Record** **of Adoption.** **For your** **convenience, the** **Montana Secretary** **of State** **publishes codified** **rules and** **you may** **view these** **rules in** 

### codified**form on** **the Secretary** **of State's** **website (www.mtrules.org).** **The information** **contained in** **the attachment** **and proposed** **for SIP** **approval was** **noticed for** **30-day public** **comment period** **ending on** **November 14,** **2014.

The** **PSD program** **regulates major** **source permitting** **in areas** **that meet** **National Ambient** **Air Quality** **Standards (NAAQS).** **Montana has** **adopted PSD** **rules in** **ARM Tide** **17, chapter** **8, subchapter** **8.

### 2O13.Sierra**Club v.** **EPA, 705** **F.3d 458** **(D.C.Cir. 2013).** **EPA responded** **by adopting** **new regulations** **in 2013** **that reduced** **the significant** **monitoring concentration** **for PM-2.5** **to micrograms** **per cubic** **meter, indicating** **that there** **is no** **air quality** **impact level** **below which reviewing** **authority has** **the discretion to** **exempt source** **from the** **PSD preconstruction** **monitoring requirements** **for PM-2.5.** **In the** **same rulemaking,** **EPA eliminated** **the significant** **impact levels** **for PM-2.5,** **stating that** **it will** **initiate new** **rulemaking to** **address them** **in the** **future.

### matter**smaller than** **2.5 microns** **from four** **micrograms per** **cubic meter** **(ug/m3) to** **zero ug/m3.** **The amendment** **to ARM** **17.8.820 would** **remove significant** **impact levels** **(SILs) for** **the same** **pollutant.

# UKlblNAL**Ij CHAIRMAN** **SHROPSHIRE: Okay.** **The next** **item on** **the agenda** **are non-enforcement** **cases assigned** **to the** **Hearing Examiner.** **So can** **you talk** **about YELP.** 

### MR.**REED: The** **status of** **YELP believe** **is the** **same as** **it was** **when the** **Board last** **met.**

### was**contacted by YELP's** **attorney, Mr.** **Crowley (phonetic),** **and it** **is my** **understanding that** **DEQ and** **YELP are** **still working** **through the** **process of** **10 settling** **this matter** **in relatively** **amicable 11** **fashion, but** **nothing has** **been filed** **with me** **since 12** **then.**

## 13**CHAIRMAN SHROPSHIRE:** **Then contested** **14 cases** **not assigned** **to Hearing** **Examiner. Who** **15 briefs** **us on those?** 

### 16**MR. NORTH:** **It would** **be the** **Board's 17** **attorney. can** **tell you** **on that** **one that** **it was** **18 remanded** **with the** **stipulation that** **the Department** **19 and** **the Appellant** **had reached** **an agreement** **on an 20** **amended permit,** **it was** **put out** **in June** **for public** 

### 21**comment, and** **we received** **public comment,** **and the** **22 Department** **issued the** **permit then** **on September** **23 8th. So** **the appeal** **period for** **that runs** **for**

### 24j**thirty days,** **so we** **don't know what's** **going to** **25 happen** **at this point,** **but the** **permit has** **been 10** **11 12** **13 14** **15 16** **17 18** **19 20** **21 22** **23 24** **25 issued.** **CHAIRMAN SHROPSHIRE:** **Thanks, John.** 

### Then**next item,** **the MEIC,** **do you** **have an** **update on** **that, Ben?** 

### MR.**REED: do.** **To summarize** **the**

### matter**for the** **Board, which** **is somewhat** **difficult, as** **you can** **see, the** **procedural history** **of this** **is pretty** **convoluted, primarily** **because both** **--**

### would**say sides** **but DEQ and** **Signal Peak** **are using** **one set** **of standards** **for water** **quality, and** **MEIC is** **using second** **set. So** **the initial** **motion for** **summary judgment** **had that** **as the** **primary contested** **issue.**

### The**subsequent briefing** **and the** **subsequent motions** **in support** **of the** **cross motions** 

### and**surreplies for** **summary judgment** **basically involve** **those specific** **Administrative Rules.** **It does** **look as** **if we're going** **to need** **to have** 

### summarized**we're going to** **need to** **have oral** 

### argument,**and we** **may need** **some more** **briefing on** **the matter,** **but believe** **that the** **matter should** **be concluded** **or it** **will be** **presented to** **the Board** **at the December** **meeting. CHAIRMAN** **SHROPSHIRE: Thank** **you. Any** **questions from** **the Board** **on the** **contested cases?** **10 11** **12 13** **14 15** **16 17** **18 19** **20 21** **22**

### 23**!i 24** **25 (No** **response) CHAIRMAN** **SHROPSHIRE: All** **right. Moving** **on to** **briefing items. The** **next item** **is the** **Department will** **provide the** **Board with** **report regarding** **the air quality** **permit fees.** **MR. NORTH:** **Madam Chair,** **Chuck Homer** **will give** **you that** **briefing. MR.** **HOMER: Madam** **Chair, members** **of the** **Board, thank** **you. My name** **is Chuck** **Homer. I'm** **Program Manager** **with the** **Air Resources** **Management Bureau** **for DEQ.** **The Air** **Quality Rules** **require that** **the Department** **report to** **the Board** **annually on** **the status** **of the** **air quality** **fees. So** **I'11 just** **sort of** **quickly go** **through these** **in summary** **manner and** **if you** **have any** **follow-up questions or** **need more** **detail, I'm** **certainly to** **willing to** **answer any** **questions you** **have. In** **fiscal year** **2014, the** **Department**

### billed**$3.6 million** **approximately for** **annual operating** **fees; we** **collected an** **additional**

### $300,000**in various** **types of** **application fees;** **for an** **overall collection** **of $3.9** **million. Our** **expenses during** **that time,** **Fiscal Year** **2014, were** 

### about**$4.2 million.** **The difference** **there is** **10 11** 

### 12**13 14** **15 16** **17 18** **19 20** **21 22** **23 24** **25**

### funded**by our** **fund balance,** **which is** **little over** **$2.4 million,** **and that** **fund balance** **has been** **accumulated over** **time primarily** **through keeping** **positions vacant** **and trying** **to reduce** **expenditures, and** **it is** **approximately around** **50 percent** **of our** **annual fee** **appropriation. Our** **collections are** **approximately 99** **and half** **percent of** **what we** **bill We** **get almost** **everything we** **bill, so** **we're pretty** **good on** **that. The** **annual billing** **is primarily** **based on** **emissions, and** **then also** **numbers of** **sources. So** **over the** **last say** **three years,** **the number** **of sources** **that have** **been billed** **have increased** **about 100** **sources per** **year, 100** **new sources,** **primarily new oil** **and gas facilities.** **Emissions go** **up and** **down each** **year, depending** **upon the** **economy, and** **production, and** **changes in** **facilities, and** **new emission** **controls, and** **so they** **went down** **by 5,000** **tons from** **2011 to** **2012. 2014** **fees were** **based on** **2013 emissions.** **In 2013** **they went** **up back** **to approximately** **the same** **as in** **2011. Again,** **our collection** **rate is** **about the** **same as** **it has** **always been,** **little over** **99 percent.** **Later on** **I'll be** **discussing the** **10**

### 1|**specifics of** **this year's** **fee rule** **proposal. But** **our revenue** **and expense** **projections came** **up as** **we**

### had**projected at** **the time** **of initiation** **of that** **fee rule** **back in** **May.**

### So**if any** **members of** **the Board have** **any questions,** **I'll be** **happy to** **answer.**

### CHAIRMAN**SHROPSHIRE: You said** **five 10** **11 12** **13 14** **15 16** **17 18** **19 20** **21 22** **23 24** **25 tons?** **MR. HOMER:** **Excuse me.** **There was** **5,000 ton difference.** 

### CHAIRMAN**SHROPSHIRE: 5,000** **tons of** **what?**

### MR.**HOMER: Of the** **total amount** **of**

### emissions**that we** **bill for.** **So we** **bill for** **four criteria** **pollutants: SO2,** **particulate, NOx,** **and VOC's.** **CHAIRMAN SHROPSHIRE:** **So those** **were all** **lumped --** 

### MR.**HOMER: So** **that's the** **total amount** **of all** **those emissions** **that are** **billed. CHAIRMAN** **SHROPSHIRE: Anybody** **have questions** **for Chuck?** **(No response)** 

### CHAIRMAN**SHROPSHIRE: All** **right. Thanks** **for the** **update. 11** **Moving along** **here. The** **next item** **are action** **items. The** **first item** **is In the** **Matter of** **the Final** **Adoption of the** **Proposed Amendments to** **ARM 17.8.501.** **MR. NORTH:** **Madam Chair,** **this will** **be an** **encore performance** **from Mr.** **Homer, believe.** **MR. HOMER:** **Thank you,** **Madam Chair,** 

### members**of the** **Board. The** **Board initiated** **rulemaking for** **the air** **quality fees** **in May.** **The 10** **Department usually** **brings proposal** **to the** **Board 11** **to set** **fee rate** **that collects** **sufficient revenue** **12 to** **fund our** **appropriation.**

### 13**This is** **the first** **year since** **2009 that** 

## 14j**we've come** **before the** **Board with** **fee change.** **We 15** **didn't need** **change of** **the annual** **operating fee,** **16 so** **this change** **was limited** **exclusively to** 

### 17!**application fees.** **The Board** **held hearing** **in 18** **July on** **the fees.** **There was** **only one** **comment, and** **19 that** **was from** **the Department.** **Inadvertently one** 

### 20**of the** **existing application** **fees had** **been left** **21 out,** **and so** **we propose** **that that** **be reinserted.** **22 Because** **the notice had** **not indicated** **23 that** **we intended** **to leave** **that out,** **so we** **proposed**

### 24**it be** **reinstated at** **its current** **rate of** **$500, that** 

### 25j**application fee** **for minor** **modifications at** **major 10** **11 12** **13 14** **15 16** **17 18** **19 20** **21 22** **23 24** 

## 25!**12 sources.** 

### So**there was** **no other** **comments other** **than that** **at the** **hearing. CHAIRMAN** **SHROPSHIRE: Okay.** **Any questions?** **(No response)** **CHAIRMAN SHROPSHIRE:** **Any public** **comment? (No** **response) CHAIRMAN** **SHROPSHIRE: would** **entertain motion** **to accept** **the Presiding** **Officer report** 

### and**the HB311** **and 521** **analyses, and** **adopt the** **response to** **comment in** **the proposed** **rule amendments** **with modifications** **as contained** **in the** **attached notice** **of amendment.** **Do have** **motion?**

### MR.**TWEETEN: This** **is Chris.** **I'll move** **it. CHAIRMAN** **SHROPSHIRE: It's** **been moved** **by Chris.** **MR. RUSSELL:** **This is** **Joe. Second.** **CHAIRMAN SHROPSHIRE:** **Second by** **Joe. Any** **further discussion?** **(No response)** **CHAIRMAN SHROPSHIRE:** **Hearing none,** **all those** **in favor,** **signify by** **saying aye.** **10 11** **12 13** **14 15** **16 17** **18 19** **20 21** **22 23** **24 25** **13 (Response)** **CHAIRMAN SHROPSHIRE:** **Opposed. (No** **response) CHAIRMAN** **SHROPSHIRE: Motion** **carries unanimously.** **The next item** **on the** **agenda is** **In the** **Matter of** **Final Adoption** **of Proposed** **Amendments to** **ARM 17.8.818,** **review of** **major stationary** **sources and** **major modifications.** **Is that** **going to** **be Mr.** **Homer? MR.** **NORTH: No,** **Madam Chair,** **it is going** **to be** **Eric Merchant.** **MR. MERCHANT:** **Thank you,** **Madam Chair,** **members of** **the Board.** **For the** **record, my** **name is** **Eric Merchant, and** **I'm here** **representing the** **Department requesting** **that the** **Board adopt** **rulemaking to** **remove and** **modify certain** **major source** **permitting program** **revisions.**

### This**action was** **initiated before** **the Board** **in May,** **and more** **specifically what** **we're asking** **is that** **the Board** **remove significant** **impact levels** **or SILs** **for fine** **particulate matter** **or PM2.5** **from Montana's** **major source** **permitting program** **provisions, and** **also that** **the Board** **modify the** **existing significant** **monitoring concentration** **10 11** **12 13** **14 15** **16 17** **18 19** **20 21** **22 23** **24 25** **14 or** **SMC rule** **for PM2.5** **also contained** **in the** **major source** **permitting program** **rules Again,** **the proposed** **action was** **initiated before** **the Board** **on May** **30th. We** **conducted public hearing** **on July** **16th, 2014. The** **Department received** **single comment related** **to the** **Department's open** **burning program** **which was** **outside of** **the scope** **of the** **current rulemaking** **The purpose** **of this** **rulemaking is** **to ensure** **that Montana's** **air quality** **rules are** **at least** **as stringent** **as federal** **requirements, air** **quality regulations,** **in order** **to maintain** **Montana's major** **source permitting** **program primacy.** **CHAIRMAN SHROPSHIRE:** **All right.** **Thanks, Eric.** **Are there** **any questions** **from the** **Board? (No** **response) CHAIRMAN** **SHROPSHIRE: had** **question, but** **I'm not** **sure if** **I'm on** **the right** **item. There** **was one** **item where** **basically the** **threshold for** **PM2.5 was** **made zero;** **is that** **-- MR.** **MERCHANT: Yes.** **Madam Chair,** **members of the** **Board, yes,** **that is** **the significant** **monitoring concentration,** **which is** **provision that** **allows applicants** **to demonstrate** **that 10** **11 12** **13 14** **15**

# 16**17 18** **19 20** **21 22** **23 24** **25 15** **preapplication monitoring** **is not** **required. So** **there was** **threshold that** **was set** **at four** 

### micrograms**per cubic** **meter prior to** **this action** **Federal Courts** **and the** **EPA revised** **that down** **to level** **of zero,** **and so** **that effectively** **means that** **there is** **no increase** **in particulate** **matter contamination** **emissions that** **doesn't warrant** **preapplication monitoring.** **There are** **ways around** **that still.** **You can** **use existing** **monitoring in** **the state, in** **that area,** **that type of** **thing. So** **the tool** **to avoid** **preapplication monitoring** **is not** **completely gone.** **However, the** **threshold for** **that purpose** **has been** **changed to** **zero CHAIRMAN** **SHROPSHIRE: So** **my question** **was in** **looking at** **it, it** **looked like** **-- It** **wasn't clear what** **the significant** **figures were.** **And so** **in terms** **of measuring** **zero, is** **it one** **significant figure,** **or is** **it 0.00,** **and how do** **you know** **what zero** **is? MR.** **MERCHANT: Madam** **Chair, members** **of the** **Board, I'm** **not prepared** **to answer** **that question** **right now.** **As understand** **it, it** **was set** **at zero,** **meaning any,** **but I'm** **not sure** **what significant** **-- 10** **11 12** **13 14** **15 16** **17 18** **19 20** **21 22** **23 24** **25 16** **CHAIRMAN SHROPSHIRE:** **Because depending** **on how** **you measure** **it, you** **could get** **zero if** **your accuracy** **is not** **very good;** **but if** **you use more** **accurate method,** **it is** **greater than** **zero. So** **it just** **occurred to** **me if,** **depending on** **the methodology,** **you could** **get zero** **or you** **could get** **something greater** **than zero,** **so --** **MS. CANTY:** **Change your** **units. MR.** **MERCHANT: Madam** **Chair, yes,** **in certain** **circumstances there** **are situations** **where**

### 0.4**is still** **zero, whereas** **0.5 might** **be over.** **But I'm** **not sure.** **don't have** **that question** **I'm not** **ready to** **answer that** **question right** **now. We** 

### can**come back** **to the** **Board with** **that information** **at later** **date, unless** **we have** **someone available** **to answer** **that question.** **MR. KLEMP:** **Madam Chair,** **members of** **the Board,** **good morning.** **My name** **is David** **Klemp. I'm** 

### the**Bureau Chief** **of the Air** **Resources Management** **Bureau. And** **think was** **here two** **minutes, so** **the two** **minute rule** **is not** **in effect.** **think can** **speak. CHAIRMAN** **SHROPSHIRE: 2.5** **minutes? MR.** **KLEMP: That's** **very good question,** **Madam Chair.** **How the** **significant monitoring** **17 concentration** **is used** **is that** **applicants will** **run model** **to determine** **whether or** **not they** **need to** 

### monitor;**and models** **are very** **capable of** **predicting values** **at pretty** **low thresholds.** **So Eric** **was exactly** **right. If** **you were** **to model** **anything less** **than 0.49,** **you would** **still be** **insignificant, and** **may not** **be required** **to monitor** **at that** **point in** **time. So** **it is** **very important** **that folks** **understand that** **the threshold** **is set** **at zero,** **not 10** **at 0.0** **or 0.00.** **11 CHAIRMAN** **SHROPSHIRE: Okay.** **Thank you.** 

### 12**MS. CANTY:** **have one** **more quick** **13 question** **for you.** **So the** **zero, what** **are the** **units 14** **for your** **zero? 15** **CHAIRMAN SHROPSHIRE:** **think it's** **16 micrograms.** **17 MR.** **KLEMP: Madam** **Chair, yes,** **it's 18** **micrograms per** **cubic liter.** 

### 19**CHAIRMAN SHROPSHIRE:** **Any other comments** **20 or** **questions? 21** **(No response)** **22 CHAIRMAN** **SHROPSHIRE: Anybody** **from the** **public wishing** **to comment?** 

### 24**(No response)** **CHAIRMAN SHROPSHIRE:** **With that,** **would 18** **entertain motion** **to accept** **the Presiding** **Officer report and** **the HB311** **and 521** **analyses, and** **adopt the** **response to** **comment, and the** **proposed rule** **amendments with** **modification as** **contained in** **the actually** **don't know** **that there** **was an** **amendment. Sorry.** **MR. NORTH:** **That's right.** 

### CHAIRMAN**SHROPSHIRE: So** **adopt the** **response to** **comment --** **10 MR.** **NORTH: --** **and the proposed** **11 amendments.** 

### 12**CHAIRMAN SHROPSHIRE:** **-- and** **the**

### 13**proposed --** **and the** **attached notice** **of amendments.** **14 There isn't** **an attached.** **Is there** **an attached** 

### 15**notice of** **amendment? 16** **MR. NORTH:** **There is** **an attached** **notice 17** **of amendment,** **yes, and** **it has** **response to** **18 comment,** **but then** **it doesn't** **propose any** **19 additional** **modification, so** **it would** **guess be** 

### 20**with the** **amendments, or** **with the** **response to** **21 comment** **in the** **attached notice** **of amendment,** **and 22** **to adopt** **the proposed** **amendments as** **proposed 23** **initially. CHAIRMAN** **SHROPSHIRE: Let** **me try** **this**

### contested**cases. Ben,** **are you** **going to** **update us** **on that,** **or who** **is going** **to update** **us on the** **new contested** **cases?**

### MR.**NORTH: guess** **what would** **say with** **regard to** **these is** **that these** **are new ones** **20 that** **have come** **in since** **the Board's** **last meeting,** 

### and**really it** **is not** **appropriate to** **discuss the** **merits of** **any of** **these, but** **it is** **really at** **this point** **just for** **the Board** **to know that** **the**

### contested**cases came** **in, and** **to decide** **whether or** **not to** **appoint Hearing** **Officer. CHAIRMAN** **SHROPSHIRE: So** **in the** **matter**
