Division)SummaryofReasonsOnMay7,2010, theUnitedStates EnvironmentalProtectionAgency(EPA)andtheDepartmentofTransportation's National Highway Safety Administrationfinalizedthefirst national rule limiting greenhousegas(GHG) emissions fromcarsandlighttrucksbeginningwithvehicle modelyear2012. Thisisreferredtoasthe GHGlightdutyvehiclerule.Therequirementsof the GHGlightdutyvehicleruletake effectonJanuary2,2011,theearliest date that 2012 vehicles meetingthestandardscan besoldin theUnitedStates.Onthatdate, GHGs will become aregulatedairpollutant underthe CleanAirAct (CAA).PreventionofSignificantDeterioration(PSD)and TitleVpermittingprogram requirementswill apply to majorstationary sourcesofthese pollutants.OnJune3,2010, the EPA finalized amendmentstothefederalPSDand TitleVregulations,knownastheTailoring Rule,whichchanged themajorsourceandsignificancelevelthresholdsof GHGemissions subjectto theseregulations. Accordingtocurrent stateregulations, sources exceeding a major source thresholdof 100or250 tonsper year(dependingonthesource category)ofaregulated air pollutantare subjecttoPSDpermitting requirements.ADEMis proposingtomodify its currentPSDregulationstobeconsistent withEPA'stailoringruletoincludeadditionalthresholdsof100,000tonsperyearofGHGsformajor source applicabilityand75,000tonsper yearof GHGsas asignificance threshold,basedoncarbon dioxide equivalent emissions.ItistheopinionofADEMthat the PSDprogram isnottheappropriate vehicle forregulating GHG emissions.ADEMistaking this actiontoinsure continuanceofprimacyofpermitting authorityfor theStateofAlabamaand toalleviate someofthe"absurdresults" ofEPA'spreviousGHGregulatory actions.Iffuture Congressional orjudicialaction resultsinGHGsnot beingregulatedunderthePSDprogram,ADEMintendstoundertake a rulemaking actiontodelete thePSDpermittingthresholds forGHGsfromitsregulations.ExhibitB-2ADEM-AIRDMSIONINDEXOFPROPOSEDCHANGESTODMSION3REGULATIONSChapter335-3-14Page14-1614-1714-2514-32AppendixIAppendixIwillbeaddedtoreflectthechangestoChapter
