(2) For the purpose of this subdivision, the potential to emit for a RECLAIM pollutant from a RECLAIM facility is the higher of: (A) the starting allocation plus nontradeable credits; or (B) RECLAIM Trading Credits (RTC) held in t he allocation account after any trading. RTCs held in the certificate account are not part of the allocation.

- Applications, or with federal regulations: (1) All new facilities that have a potential to emit any regulated air pollutant at, or greater than, any of the levels specified in Table 2 of subdivision (b)Rule 3001 (Cont.) (Amended November 5, 2010)

- 3 of this rule, and for which applications for permits to construct and permits to operate are deemed complet e after March 31, 2000; (2) All facilities initially not subject to Title V requirements, that after installation or modification of equipment would have a potential to emit any regulated air pollutant at, or greater than, any of the levels specified in
Ta ble 2 of subdivision (b) of this rule, and for which applications for permits to construct or permits to operate are deemed complete after March 31, 2000; (3) All "affected sources" as defined under the acid rain provisions of Title IV
of the federal Clean Air Act and 40 CFR Part 70, Section 70.2; (4) Solid waste incineration units required to obtain a permit pursuant to Section 129(e) of the federal Clean Air Act; (5) All facilities subject to a standard, limitation, or other requirement of the
New Source Performance Standards in 40 CFR Part 60 or National
Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants in 40 CFR Part 61 or Part 63 that are specifically required by federal regulation to obtain a
Title V permit; and, (6) All other facilities so designated by the EPA by future amendments to 40 CFR Part 70, Section 70.3. (7) All facilities that have obtained a District facility permit with a condition limiting facility emissions for the purpose of being exempt from Title V permit requirements pursuant to paragr aph (d)(2) of this rule, and that have reported annual emissions, calculated in accordance with permit terms and conditions under normal operating conditions, equal to or greater than any of the threshold amounts specified in Table 2 of subdivision (b) of this
rule. (8) On and after January 2, 2011, applicable requirements for greenhouse gases shall be included in Title V permits for any facility that is otherwise required, after that date, to obtain a new, renewed, or revised Title V permit pursuant to sub division (a) of this rule. (9) On and after July 1, 2011, any facility with a potential to emit ≥ 100,000 tpy CO 2 e , on a CO 2 e basis (Global Warming Potential applied) and a
Potential to Emit GHGs > 100 tpy GHGs on a mass basis (no Global Warming Potential applied) shall apply for a Title V permit within 180 days after July 1, 2011, unless a Title V p ermit has already been applied

- 4 ( d) Exemptions (1) Notwithstanding subdivision (c) of this rule, facilities that would be required to obtain a Title V permit solely because they are subject to one or more of the following regulations are exempt from Ti tle V permit requirements: (A) 40 CFR Part 60, subpart AAA

- Standards of Performance for New Residential Wood Heaters; (B) 40 CFR Part 61, subpart M

- National Emission Standard for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Asbestos, Section 61.145

- Standard
for Demo lition and Renovation. (2) Facilities subject to the requirements of subdivision (a) (b) or (c) of this rule, that demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Executive Officer that the facility's potential to emit has been reduced, either through a facility

m odification or by accepting an enforceable condition in the District facility permit, to less than the levels for all air contaminants specified in Table 2 of subdivision (b) of this rule , and the PTE is less than 10 0,000 tpy CO 2 e GHGs , are exempt from Tit le V permit requirements.

(e) Phase One Exclusions (1) Except in the case of an affected source under the acid rain program, an applicant may request, and the Executive Officer may grant an exclusion from subdivision (a) of this rule, Phase One Title V Per mits, provided that the facility can demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Executive Officer
that: (A) the most recent, validated, reported emissions are less than the
thr esholds in subdivision (a); and (B) a permanent change has occurred at the facility to explain the reduction in reported emissions. (2) All requests for exclusion shall be in a form specified by the Executive Officer, shall include copies of reported emissions data and are subject to

app roval by the Executive Officer.
