- 1 3/23/2011 03/28/01 RULE 216. FEDERAL PART 70 PERMITS (Adopted 10/26/93; Revised 3/28/01 , date of adoption )

A. GENERAL . This Rule specifies the requirements and procedures by which a specific source may obtain a Federally enforceable operating permit in accordance with the requirements of Part 70 to Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations. The Air Pollution Control Officer (APCO) may also issue a general Part 70 permit for numerous similar sources. For the purposes of this Rule, all references to Part 70 permits shall also apply to general Part 70 permits except where specific requirements are identified.

This Rule initially became effective upon its approval by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). However, the requirements of this Rule 216

shall be suspended during any time period in which a 40 CFR Part 71 operating permit program is being administered for sources under the jurisdiction of the San Luis Obispo County Air Pollution Control District, in lieu of Rule 216, unless:

1. The U.S. EPA is taki ng action to satisfy an objection in accordance with 40 CFR Parts 70.8(c)(4) and 71.4(e); or

2. The District and U.S. EPA jointly agree, in accordance with 40 CFR Section 71.10, "Delegation of Part 71 Program," that all or part of Rule 216 shall not be

suspe nded; in which case the terms, conditions, and scope of such delegation shall be set forth in writing in the delegation agreement.

In addition to being enforceable pursuant to federal law, during any suspension of Rule 216, an existing permit issued pursu ant thereto shall continue to be enforced by the District in accordance with Rule 202 and other applicable state and District rules and regulations. Action to modify, renew, or reopen such permit shall be conducted pursuant to the Federal Clean Air Act an d 40 CFR Part 71 and/or Rule 202 and other applicable state and District rules and regulations, depending on whether the requirement involved in the permit action is District

- only enforceable or enforceable by both the District and the U.S. EPA and the cit izens of the

United States.

The provisions of this Rule shall apply in addition to all other requirements found elsewhere in this Regulation for any source required to obtain a Part 70 permit.

B. APPLICABILITY . The requirement to obtain a Part 70 permit p ursuant to this Rule shall apply to:

1. Any stationary source with a potential to emit of 100 tons per year or more of any air pollutant except greenhouse gases

.

2. Greenhouse gase s equal to or exceeding the thresholds as specified in 40 CFR

G. REQUIREMENTS

- Operational Flexibility

1. General. This section contains the provisions by which a source could: operate under alternative operating scenarios, trade emissions under a federally

enforceable e missions cap, or contravene a Part 70 permit condition. Any actions taken solely pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of this section shall not be considered a significant Part 70 permit modification, minor Part 70 permit modification, or adm inistrative Part 70 permit amendment.

2. Alternative Operating Scenarios. The owner or operator of any stationary source required to obtain a Part 70 permit may submit a description of all reasonably anticipated operating scenarios for the stationary source as part of the Part 70 permit application. The operating scenario descriptions shall contain emission

information for each scenario and sufficient information for the District to develop reasonable permit conditions defining each scenario.

The owner or operator of any stationary source that is permitted to operate under different operating scenarios will be allowed to change between operating scenarios without any notice to the District but shall be required to maintain a log at the stationary source rec ording all changes of operating scenarios. All changes of operating scenarios must be recorded in the log contemporaneously with the change.

3. Voluntary Emission Caps. The owner or operator of any stationary source required to obtain a Part 70 permit, as part of the Part 70 permit application, may request the District to establish a federally

- enforceable emissions cap independent of any federally

- enforceable requirement for any pollutant emitted by the stationary source. The emissions cap request shall co ntain proposed replicableSan Luis Obispo County APCD 216

- 15 3/23/2011 03/28/01 procedures and permit terms that ensure the emissions trades will be quantifiable and enforceable. The District shall not be required to include in the emissions trading provisions any emissions units for which emissions are not quantifiable or for which there are no replicable procedures to enforce the emissions trades.

The owner or operator of any stationary source that is permitted to operate under an emissions cap will be allowed to trade emissions within the emissions cap wi th 30 calendar days written notification to the District and the Administrator of the EPA, unless the District objects in writing to the emissions trade within the 30 day notice period.

The written notice shall state when the emissions trade will occur an d shall describe the changes in emissions that will occur. The written notice shall also demonstrate that the requested change meets all of the following criteria:

a. The emissions trade will not violate any applicable requirement, including Rule 204, Requi rements.

b. The modification does not involve any addition, deletion, or revision to a Part 70 Permit condition under Section 112(g) of Title I of the CAA or under EPA regulations promulgated pursuant to Title I of the CAA, including 40 CFR Parts 51, 52, 60, 61, and 63.

c. The emissions trade does not result in exceeding the emissions allowable under the Part 70 permit whether expressed as a rate of emissions or in

terms of total emissions.

d. The emissions trade will comply with all Part 70 permit conditions.

The District shall object to the emissions trade only if one or more of these criteria are not satisfied. The source, the District, and the EPA shall attach each such notice to their copy of the relevant permit.
