### Helpful Definitions f

r om the Federal Indian Country Minor NSR Rule (40 CFR 49.152)

– This is not a comprehensive list.

 Modification means any physical or operational change at a source that would cause an increase in the
allowable emissions of the affected emissi ons units for any regulated NSR pollutant or that would cause the emission of any regulated NSR pollutant not previously emitted. [ 40 CFR 49.152(d) ]

The following exemptions apply:

(1) A physical or operational change does not include routine maintenance, repair, or replacement. (2) An increase in the hours of operation or in the production rate is not considered an operational change unless such increase is prohibited under any federa lly

- enforceable permit condition or other permit condition that is enforceable as a practical matter. (3) A change in ownership at a source is not considered a modification.

 Potential to Emit (PTE) means the maximum capacity of a source to emit a pollut ant under its physical and operational design. Any physical or operational limitation on the capacity of the source to emit a pollutant, including air pollution control equipment and restrictions on hours of operation or on the type
or amount of material c ombusted, stored or processed, shall be treated as part of its design if the limitation or the effect it would have on emissions is enforceable as a practical matter. Secondary emissions, as defined at 40 CFR 52.21(b)(18) of this chapter, do not count in d etermining the PTE of a

source.Instructions: Petroleum Dry Cleaning Facilities Page 2 of 5

### Section 2: Facility and Technical Information for the Notification of Coverage under the Air Quality Permit by Rule for New or Modified True Minor Source Petroleum Dry Cleaning
Facilities in Indian Country

12. Brief Description of Your Petroleum Dry Cleaning Facility: Is your facility new or is this a modification to an existing facility? If this is a new notification , describe the proposed new source. If this is a modification,
describe the proposed modification. Information on the definition of a “modification” can be found at 40 CFR 49.152(d).

13. Nor th American Industry Classification System (NAICS)/Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) Code and Description: Provide the NAICS/SIC Code and/or description for the facility (check all that apply):

□ 812310 NAICS (Coin

- operated Laundries and Dry Cleaners)

□ 812320 NAICS (Drycleaning and Laundry Services, except Coin

- Operated)

□ 7215 SIC (Coin

□ 7219 SIC (Laundry and Garment Services)

□ 7251 SIC (Shoe Repair and Shoeshine Parlors)

□ 7389 SIC (Business Services)

□ Other

– please specify _____NAICS; _____SIC

14. Ozone Attainment Status: Indicate if this facility is located in an ozone nonattainment area and specify the classification of the ozone nonattainment area. If part of a tribe’s area is designated as attainment and another part as nonattainment, the answer to this question should be based on the designation where the source would be located. If the source straddles the two areas, the more stringent classification applies. Information on the ozone attainment status of the area where your facility is
located can be found at: http://www.epa.gov/airquality/greenbook/ . Please contact your reviewing authority if you have questions about an area’s attainment status.

15. Exemption from the Minor NSR Program: For a new facility, calculat e the PTE of all proposed emission
units and determine if the proposed construction is below the applicability thresholds in the Federal Indian Country Minor NSR Rule (the thresholds listed in Table 1 to 40 CFR 49.153). For a modification to your existing facility, calculate the emissions increase from your new or modified emission units and determine if the proposed construction or modification is below the thresholds listed. For a new

emissions unit

, th e emissions change is the PTE of the new unit. For a modified emissions units, the emissions change is the change in allowable emissions of the unit.

You only need to consider the thresholds for nonattainment areas if your source is located in an area
des ignated nonattainment. If in a nonattainment area, then you only need to consider the nonattainment threshold for the pollutant(s) for which the area is designated nonattainment.

If the PTE of your new facility or the emissions increase at your existing f acility is below the applicable thresholds listed for ALL pollutants, the new or modified source is exempt from the NSR minor program. You do not need a permit for this source. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is providing a
PTE calculator to assist with this task. The calculator is available online at: http://www.epa.gov/air/tribal/tribalnsr.html

.

16. Qualification for Permit by Rule

– Facility in Attainment Area : If located in an attainment area, calculate the PTE of your entire facility (include new, modified, and existing units) and determine if the facility is below the NSR major source threshold of 250 tons per year ( tpy ) . If the PTE of the proposed facility i s equal or above 250 tpy for ANY pollutant, this new or modified source does not qualify for this Permit by
Rule . The EPA is providing a PTE calculator to assist with this task. The calculator is available online at : http://www.epa.gov/air/tribal/tribalnsr.html

.

17. Qualification for Permit by Rule

– Facility in Nonattainment Area : If located in a nonattainment area, calculate the PTE of your entire facility (inclu de new, modified, and existing units) and determine if the facility is below the NSR major source thresholds listed. Note the NSR major source classification is pollutant specific. You only need to consider the nonattainment area thresholds for the particu lar pollutant s for which the area is designat ed as nonattainment. If the PTE of the proposed facility is equal
to or above the threshold for ANY pollutant for which the area is designated as nonattainment then thisInstructions: Petroleum Dry Cleaning Facilities Page 4 of 5

Version 1.0 new or modified source does not qualify for a permit by r ule . The EPA is providing a PTE calculator to
assist with this task. The calculator is available online at : http://www.epa.gov/air/tribal/ tribalnsr.html

.

18. Solvent Usage Thresholds: 40 CFR 49.16 3 specifies the solvent usage thresholds that apply to a new or modified petroleum dry cleaning facility located in an attainment , unclassifiable or attainment/unclassifiable area or nonattainment area for ozone. You should determine if your source is
located in an ozone attainment , unclassifiable or attainment/unclassifiable area or nonattainment area, and examine the upper thresholds for the solvent usage limits specified in 40 C FR 49.16 3 . Examine the requirements pertaining to the solvent usage limits and determine if you are able and willing to comply with them. If you do not believe you can comply with these limits, you must obtain a site

- specific permit
from the reviewing auth ority

.

19. Maximum Heat Input Capacity : This question asks whether the maximum heat input capacity of each
fuel combustion unit is less than 10 MMBtu/h our and the total combined heat input capacity of all fuel
combustion units is less than 30 MMBtu/h ou r.

20. 40 CFR 49.16 3 Requirements: 40 CFR 49.16 3 specifies the requirements that apply to a new or modified petroleum dry cleaning facility. Some of these requirements are applicable to sources located in a
nonattainment area for ozone

. Examine these requirements, and determine if you are able and willing to comply with them. If you do not believe you can comply with these limits, you must obtain a site

- specific permit from reviewing authority

.

21. Emission Units : For each emission unit at your facility include:

 A description of the equipment or process (m aterials or fuels used for the equipment/process
should also be included ;

 The maximum rated capacity or production rate of the equipment/process;

 Description of any pollution control equi pment;

 The estimated operating schedule for the equipment (e.g., 10 hours per day, 6 days a week);
and

 For existing equipment, the date it was installed.

Typical equipment associated with this source category may include: combustion units, volatile liquid storage tanks, and petroleum dry cleaning dryers.

For each emission unit, you must also submit your supporting documentation for your PTE calculations. And, for any existing emission unit you must include the actual annual emissions.
