## Request for Coverage under the General Air Quality Permit for New or Modified

True Minor Source Compression Ignition Engines in Indian Country

Last Modified: July 2

, 2014

Version 1. 0

This request for coverage under the General Air Quality Permit for New or Modified True Minor Source Compression

Ignition Engines applies to the construction of a new

, true minor source stationary compression ignition engines or the

modification of an exis ting true minor source stationary compression ignition engines in Indian country that meet

certain restrictions

. The EPA is making two engine permits available: one for non

- emergency stationary spark ignition

internal combustion engines and one for non

- eme rgency stationary compression ignition engines. Both permits are

designed primarily for one non

- emergency stationary engine type or the other

– spark ignition or compression ignition.

But the two permits are also designed to accommodate stationary emergenc y engine s of either type that may be

present at your facility. However, if you have both compression ignition and spark

- ignition non

- emergency stationary

engines present at your facility, then you are not eligible for this permit and should consult your re viewing authority.

Engines included in this source category are compression ignition stationary internal combustion engines (ICE or engine )

that convert heat energy into mechanical work and are not mobile. This source category does not include combustion

turbines or nonroad engines (mobile ICE) such as forklifts, off

- highway mobile cranes, bulldozers, and lawnmowers.

Stationary ICE includes reciprocating ICE, rotary ICE, and other ICE, except combustion turbines as noted. Th is category

covers both non

- emer gency and emergency stationary ICE. This general air quality permit does not apply to mobile

engines that remain in place for 12 months or less

.

You qualify to apply for coverage under this general permit if you meet all of the following criteria:

 You pla n to construct an entirely new

, true minor source of engine s or to modify the operations at an existing

true minor source of engine s ;

 Your new or modified true minor source of engine s is located within Indian country;

 Your facility has a potential to emit (PTE) less than the New Source Review (NSR) major source thresholds;

 Your new or modifie d true minor source of engines is not located in a severe or extreme ozone nonattainment

area ;

 Your new or modified true minor source of engines only has non

- emergency engines that are compression ignition

engines (e mergency engines may be either compression ignition or spark ignition );

 Your new or modified true minor source of engines is located in an ozone attainment, unclassifiable, or

attainment /unclassifiable area, marginal ozone nonattainment area, or moderate ozone nonattainment area and

can meet one of these options:

o Option 1: All non

- emergency engines are compression ignition engine s greater than 75 horsepower ( hp ) ;

any non

- emergency compression ignition engine greater than 750 hp is equipped with a generator set;

the combined maximum engine power of all non

- emergency compression ignition engines is no greater

than 3800 hp; the combined maximum engine power of all emergency engines is no greater than 1000

hp ;

or

o Option 2: The combined maximum engine power of all non

- emergency compression ignition engines is

no greater than 19 00 hp and t he combined maximum engine power of all emergency engines is no

greater than 2500 hp.OMB Control No. 2060

Version 1.0  Your new or modified true mi nor source of engines located in a serious ozone nonattainment area have a

combined maximum engine power of all non

- emergency compression ignition engines that is no greater than

1 100 hp and have a combined maximum engine power of all emergency engines tha t is no greater than 750 hp ;

 Your non

- emergency compression ignition engines are model year 2014 or later and are certified Tier 4 engines ;

 If y our new or modified true minor source of engines has auxiliary heaters , they only burn natural gas and have a

combined maximum heat input of no greater than 10 million British thermal units ( MMBtu ) /h ou r (hr) ;
