Notice 

To authenticate the following materials for incorporation by reference (IBR) under the 

requirements set forth in 1 CFR part 51, EPA is providing copies of the "Filing Instructions" for 

the January 2011 edition ofthe Colorado Code of Regulations (CCR). The official publication 

of the CCR consists of a series of binders that contain regulatory provisions, and these binders 

are updated each year in accordance with "Filing Instructions" provided by the State. The 

"Filing Instructions" provide specific instructions for removing specific pages from the CCR 

binders and replacing them with new pages that reflect any changes to the regulatory provisions. 

With regard to 5 CCR 1001-5 (the provisions currently being present for IBR), the attached 

"Filing Instructions" show that the 2011 edition included instructions to replace the Title pages 

and Table ofContents (pp. 1-2 and i), to replace pages 159-160, to replace pages173-188, to add 

page 188.6 and to add pages 325-331. Accordingly, not all of the pages presented here were 

changed in this 2011 "Filing Instruction" and demonstrates that the 5 CCR 1001-5 rules in effect 

in 2011 contain two different dates (compare p. 115, beginning ofPart D, dated 2010, with p. 

160, containing subsection XIV.F.l. introductory text and XIV.F.l.c, dated 2011).

PART D CONCERNING MAJOR STATIONARY SOURCE NEW SOURCE REVIEW AND 

PREVENTION OF SIGNIFICANT DETERIORATION 

I. Applicability 

I.A. General Applicability 

I.A.1. This Part D shall apply to any new or existing major stationary source. 

Any new major stationary source or major modification, to which the requirements of this Part 

D apply, shall not begin actual construction in a nonattainment, attainment, or unclassifiable 

area unless a permit has been issued containing all applicable state and federal 

requirements. 

I.A.2. Except as otherwise provided in Section XV of this Part D, and consistent with the 

definition of major modification (Section II.A.22. of this part), a project is a major 

modification for a regulated NSR pollutant if it causes two types of emissions 

increases- a significant emissions increase (as defined in Section II.A.43. of this 

part), and a significant net emissions increase (as defined in Sections I/.A.26. and 

I/.A.42. of this part). The project is not a major modification if it does not cause a 

significant emissions increase. If the project causes a significant emissions increase, 

then the project is a major modification only if it also results in a significant net 

emissions increase. 

I.A.3. The procedure for calculating (before beginning actual construction) whether a 

significant emissions increase (i.e., the first step of the process) will occur depends 

upon the type of emissions units being constructed or modified, according to Sections 

1.8.1. through 1.8.3. of this part. The procedure for calculating (before beginning 

actual construction) whether a significant net emissions increase will occur at the 

major stationary source (i.e., the second step of the process) is contained in the 

definition of Net Emissions Increase (Section II.A.26. of this part). Regardless of any 

such preconstruction projections, a major modification results if the project causes a 

significant emissions increase and a significant net emissions increase. 

1.8. Applicability Tests 

1.8.1. Actual-to-projected-actual applicability test for projects that only involve existing 

emissions units. 

A significant emissions increase of a regulated NSR pollutant is projected to occur if the sum 

of the difference between the projected actual emissions (as defined in Section II.A.36. of this 

part) and the baseline actual emissions (as defined in Sections I/.A.4.a. and II.A.4.b. of this 

part, as applicable), for each existing emissions unit, equals or exceeds the significant 

amount for that pollutant (as defined in Section II.A.42. of this part). 

1.8.2. Actual-to-potential test for projects that only involve construction of a new emiss~pns 

unit(s). 

A significant emissions increase of a regulated NSR pollutant is projected to occur if the sum 

of the difference between the potential to emit (as defined in Section 1.8.35. of Part A of this 

regulation) from each new emissions unit following completion of the project and the baseline 

actual emissions (as defined in Section II.A.4. of this part) of these units before the project 

equals or exceeds the significant amount for that pollutant (as defined in Section II.A.42. of 

this part).

XIV.D.2. Each existing stationary facility located in Colorado to which the cause of or 

contribution to visibility impairment in any Class I area is reasonably attributable, 

apply for and obtain from the Division a permit that requires the installation and 

operation of Best Available Retrofit Technology. The facility-shall install and 

Best Available Retrofit Technology as expeditiously as practicable but in no 

later than fiVe years after permit issuance. 

XIV.D.2.a. For fossil-fuel fired generating plants having a total general' g capacity in 

excess of 750 megawatts, Best Available Retrofit Techno! shall be · 

determined pursuant to "Guidelines for Determining Best ailable Retrofit 

Technology for Coal-fired Power Plants and Other Existi Stationary 

Facilities" (U.S. EPA Publication Number 450/3-80·009 , 1980), and state of 

the art information available at the lime of Best Avail e Retrofit Technology 

nalysls. Pursuant to Colorado Revised Statute Se ion 24-4-103 (12.5),the 

d ment referenced in this section is available t public inspection during 

no al working hours, or copies are available fo cost, from the technical 

seer ry of the Commission, 4300 Cherry C k Drive South, Denver, 

Colora o 80246-1530. This Regulation Nu r 3 does not include later 

amendm nts to or ~dilions of the referen documents. 

XIV.D.2.b. Should te hnologlcal or economic U lations make the application of Best 

Available Ret fit Technology as pre · usly defined infeasible; the state may 

Instead prescri a design, equipm t, work practice, or other operational 

standard, or com nation thereof, s representing Best Available Retrofit 

Technology. Whe~ a facility is bject to Section XIV.D.2.a., due to 

technologicallimitati s, the f 11ity shall install and operate Best Available 

Retrofit Technology as rev· sly defined when new technology for control of 

the pollutant becomes r nably available provided: 1) the pollutant Is 

emitted by the existing fa · y; 2) controls representing Best Available Retrofit 

Technology for the poll an ave not previously been required under this 

section; and 3) the im airmen of visibility In any .Class I area Is reasonably 

attributable to the e 1ssions of at pollutant. 

XIV.D.2.c. Any existing tionary facility re uired to install and operate Best 

Available Retr 11 Technology under is section may apply to the Division 

and the U.S. PA Administrator for an xemption. 

XIV.D.2. i) An application under this se · n must Include all available 

ocumentation relevant to the impa of the source's emissions on 

visibility in any Class I area and a de onstration by the existing 

stationary facility that it does not or will ot by itself or in combination 

with other sources, emit any air pollutant at may be reasonably 

anticipated to cause or contribute to a sign cant impairment of 

visibility In any Class I area. 

XIV.D.2.c.(ii) Any fossil fuel fired power plant with a lola eneratlng capacity 

of 750 megawatts or more may receive an exem · n from Best 

Available Retrofit Technology only If the owner oro rator of such 

power plant demonstrates to the satisfaction of the D 'sion that such 

power plant is located at such a distance from all Clas I areas that 

such power plant does not or will not by Itself or In comb ation with 

other sources emit any air pollutant that may reasonably 

anticipated to cause or contribute to significant impairment 

visibility In any such Class I area.
