Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 138 / Tuesday, July 19, 2016 / Proposed Rules 46865 

requirements of 40 CFR part 75. The 

testing and evaluation of the inlet 

monitors and the calculations of relative 

accuracy for lb/hr of NOX, SO2 and heat 

input shall be performed each time the 

40 CFR part 75 CEMS undergo relative 

accuracy testing. 

(ii) Compliance determinations for 

NOX. 

(A) [Reserved] 

(B) Coronado Generating Station. 

Compliance with the NOX emission 

limits for Coronado Unit 1 and 

Coronado Unit 2 in paragraph (f)(3)(i) of 

this section shall be determined on a 

rolling 30 boiler-operating-day basis. 

The 30-boiler-operating-day rolling NOX

emission rate for each unit shall be 

calculated in accordance with the 

following procedure: Step one, sum the 

total pounds of NOX emitted from the 

unit during the current boiler operating 

day and the previous twenty-nine (29) 

boiler operating days; Step two, sum the 

total heat input to the unit in MMBtu 

during the current boiler operating day 

and the previous twenty-nine (29) boiler 

operating days; Step three, divide the 

total number of pounds of NOX emitted 

from that unit during the thirty (30) 

boiler operating days by the total heat 

input to the unit during the thirty (30) 

boiler operating days. A new 30-boileroperating-day rolling average NOX

emission rate shall be calculated for 

each new boiler operating day. Each 30- 

boiler-operating-day average NOX

emission rate shall include all emissions 

that occur during all periods within any 

boiler operating day, including 

emissions from startup, shutdown, and 

malfunction. 

(C) If a valid NOX pounds per hour or 

heat input is not available for any hour 

for a unit, that heat input and NOX

pounds per hour shall not be used in the 

calculation of the 30-day rolling 

average. 

(iii) Compliance determinations for 

SO2. (A) The 30-day rolling average SO2

emission rate for each coal-fired unit 

shall be calculated in accordance with 

the following procedure: Step one, sum 

the total pounds of SO2 emitted from the 

unit during the current boiler-operating 

day and the previous twenty-nine (29) 

boiler-operating days; step two, sum the 

total heat input to the unit in MMBtu 

during the current boiler-operating day 

and the previous twenty-nine (29) 

boiler-operating day; and step three, 

divide the total number of pounds of 

SO2 emitted during the thirty (30) 

boiler-operating days by the total heat 

input during the thirty (30) boileroperating days. A new 30-day rolling 

average SO2 emission rate shall be 

calculated for each new boiler-operating 

day. Each 30-day rolling average SO2

emission rate shall include all emissions 

and all heat input that occur during all 

periods within any boiler-operating day, 

including emissions from startup, 

shutdown, and malfunction. 

(B) [Reserved] 

(C) If a valid SO2 pounds per hour at 

the outlet of the FGD system or heat 

input is not available for any hour for 

a unit, that heat input and SO2 pounds 

per hour shall not be used in the 

calculation of the 30-day rolling 

average. 

(D) If both a valid inlet and outlet SO2

lb/MMBtu and an outlet value of lb/hr 

of SO2 are not available for any hour, 

that hour shall not be included in the 

efficiency calculation. 

* * * * * 

(10) Equipment operations. 

(i) [Reserved] 

(ii) Coronado Generating Station. At 

all times, including periods of startup, 

shutdown, and malfunction, the owner 

or operator of Coronado Generating 

Station Unit 1 and Unit 2 shall, to the 

extent practicable, maintain and operate 

each unit in a manner consistent with 

good air pollution control practices for 

minimizing emissions. The owner or 

operator shall continuously operate 

pollution control equipment at all times 

the unit it serves is in operation, and 

operate pollution control equipment in 

a manner consistent with technological 

limitations, manufacturer’s 

specifications, and good engineering 

and good air pollution control practices 

for minimizing emissions. 

Determination of whether acceptable 

operating and maintenance procedures 

are being used will be based on 

information available to the Regional 

Administrator which may include, but 

is not limited to, monitoring results, 

review of operating and maintenance 

procedures, and inspection of each unit.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

In the ‘‘Rules and Regulations’’ 

section of this Federal Register, the EPA 

is approving the State’s SIP revision as 

a direct final rule without prior proposal 

because the agency views this as a 

noncontroversial SIP revision and 

anticipates no adverse comments. A 

detailed rationale for the approval is set 

forth in the preamble to the direct final 

rule. 

If the EPA receives no adverse 

comments, the EPA will not take further 

action on this proposed rule. If the EPA 

receives adverse comments, the EPA 

will withdraw the direct final rule and 

it will not take effect. The EPA will 

address all public comments in a 

subsequent final rule based on this 

proposed rule. 

The EPA will not institute a second 

comment period on this action. Any 

parties interested in commenting must 

do so at this time. For further 

information, please see the ADDRESSES

section of this notice. 

Please note that if the EPA receives 

adverse comment on a distinct 

provision of this rule and if that 

provision may be severed from the 

remainder of the rule, the EPA may 

adopt as final those provisions of the 

rule that are not the subject of an 

adverse comment. See the information 

provided in the Direct Final action of 

the same title which is located in the 

Rules and Regulations Section of this 

Federal Register.

VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews 

I. Background 

States are required to submit a 

progress report in the form of a SIP 

revision every five years that evaluates 

progress towards the RPGs for each 

mandatory Class I Federal area 1 (Class 

I area) within the state and in each Class 

I area outside the state which may be 

affected by emissions from within the 

state. See 40 CFR 51.308(g). In addition, 

the provisions under 40 CFR 51.308(h) 

require states to submit, at the same 

time as the 40 CFR 51.308(g) progress 

report, a determination of the adequacy 

of the state’s existing Regional Haze SIP. 

The first progress report SIP is due five 

years after submittal of the initial 

Regional Haze SIP. On January 29, 2010, 

the New Hampshire Department of 

Environmental Services (NH DES) 

submitted the State’s first Regional Haze 

SIP in accordance with 40 CFR 51.308.2

On December 16, 2014, NH DES 

submitted a revision to the New 

Hampshire SIP detailing the progress 

made in the first planning period 

toward implementation of the Long 

Term Strategy (LTS) outlined in the 

2010 Regional Haze SIP submittal, the 

visibility improvement measured at the 

State’s Class I areas, and a 

determination of the adequacy of the 

State’s existing Regional Haze SIP. EPA 

is proposing to approve New 

Hampshire’s December 16, 2014 SIP 

revision on the basis that it satisfies the 

requirements of 40 CFR 51.308(g) and 

(h).
