Clean Air Act Operating Permit 

Program; Petition for Objection to 

State Operating Permit for Public 

Service Company, Fort Saint Vrain 

Station 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of final action. 

SUMMARY: This document announces 

that the EPA Administrator has 

responded to a citizen petition asking 

EPA to object to an operating permit 

issued by the Colorado Department of 

Public Health and Environment 

(CDPHE). Specifically, the 

Administrator has partially granted and 

partially denied the August 6, 2005 

petition, submitted by Jeremy Nichols 

(Petitioner), to object to the July 1, 2005 

operating permit issued to Public 

Service Company, Fort Saint Vrain 

Station (Ft. St. Vrain). 

Pursuant to section 505(b)(2) of the 

Clean Air Act (Act), Petitioners may 

seek judicial review of those portions of 

the petitions which EPA denied in the 

United States Court of Appeals for the 

appropriate circuit. Any petition for 

review shall be filed within 60 days 

from the date this notice appears in the 

Federal Register, pursuant to section 

307 of the Act. 

ADDRESSES: You may review copies of 

the final order, the petition, and other 

supporting information at the EPA 

Region 8 Office, 1595 Wynkoop Street, 

Denver, Colorado 80202–1129. EPA 

requests that if at all possible, you 

contact the individual listed in the FOR

FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section to

petition, and other supporting 

information. You may view the hard

law.donald@epa.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Act 

affords EPA a 45-day period to review, 

and object to as appropriate, a Title V 

operating permit proposed by State 

permitting authorities. Section 505(b)(2) 

of the Act authorizes any person to 

petition the EPA Administrator, within 

60 days after the expiration of this 

review period, to object to a Title V 

operating permit if EPA has not done so. 

Petitions must be based only on 

objections to the permit that were raised 

with reasonable specificity during the 

public comment period provided by the 

State, unless the petitioner demonstrates 

that it was impracticable to raise these 

issues during the comment period or the 

grounds for the issues arose after this 

period. 

On August 6, 2005, the EPA received 

a petition from Jeremy Nichols 

requesting that EPA object to the 

issuance of the Title V operating permit 

to the Public Service Company, Fort 

Saint Vrain Station for the following 

reasons: (I) The operating permit fails to 

require appropriate best available 

control technology for NOX emissions; 

(II) the operating permit fails to ensure 

compliance with NOX concentration 

limits and/or fails to adopt enforceable 

limits; (III) the operating permit fails to 

subject T004 in simple cycle mode to 

Compliance Assurance Monitoring 

(CAM) requirements for NOX emissions; 

(IV) the operating permit fails to require 

opacity monitoring; (V) the operating 

permit sets unenforceable CO emission 

limits and/or fails to ensure compliance 

with CO limits; and (VI) concerns on 

eight specific permit conditions. 

On February 5, 2007, the 

Administrator issued an order partially 

granting and partially denying the 

petition. The order explains the reasons 

behind EPA’s conclusion to partially 

grant and partially deny the petition for 

objection. 

Dated: February 28, 2007.

Acting Regional Administrator, Region 8.
