 NOTIFICATION OF GENERAL PERMITTEE OBLIGATIONS 

 The items listed below are not subject to the annual compliance certification 

 requirements under Title V. Permittees may also have other obligations 

 under regulations of general applicability. 

Item A: Emergency Defense - 6 NYCRR 201-1.5 

 An emergency constitutes an affirmative defense to an action brought 

 for noncompliance with emissions limitations or permit conditions for 

 all facilities in New York State. 

 (a) The affirmative defense of emergency shall be demonstrated through 

 properly signed, contemporaneous operating logs, or other relevant 

 evidence that: 

 (1) An emergency occurred and that the facility owner and/or 

 operator can identify the cause(s) of the emergency; 

 (2) The equipment at the permitted facility causing the 

 emergency was at the time being properly operated; 

 (3) During the period of the emergency the facility owner and/or 

 operator took all reasonable steps to minimize levels of emissions 

 that exceeded the emission standards, or other requirements in the 

 permit; and 

 (4) The facility owner and/or operator notified the Department 

 within two working days after the event occurred. This notice must 

 contain a description of the emergency, any steps taken to mitigate 

 emissions, and corrective actions taken. 

 (b) In any enforcement proceeding, the facility owner and/or operator 

 seeking to establish the occurrence of an emergency has the burden of 

 proof. 

 (c) This provision is in addition to any emergency or upset provision 

 contained in any applicable requirement. 

Item B: Public Access to Recordkeeping for Title V Facilities - 6 NYCRR 

 201-1.10 (b) 

 The Department will make available to the public any permit 

 application, compliance plan, permit, and monitoring and compliance 

 certification report pursuant to Section 503(e) of the Act, except for

Renewal 1/Mod 1/Active Page 7 FINAL 

Item D: Certification by a Responsible Official - 6 NYCRR 201-6.3 (d) (12) 

 Any application, form, report or compliance certification required to 

 be submitted pursuant to the federally enforceable portions of this 

 permit shall contain a certification of truth, accuracy and 

 completeness by a responsible official. This certification shall state 

 that based on information and belief formed after reasonable inquiry, 

 the statements and information in the document are true, accurate, and 

 complete. 

Item E: Requirement to Comply With All Conditions - 6 NYCRR 201-6.5 (a) (2) 

 The permittee must comply with all conditions of the Title V facility 

 permit. Any permit non-compliance constitutes a violation of the Act 

 and is grounds for enforcement action; for permit termination, 

 revocation and reissuance, or modification; or for denial of a permit 

 renewal application. 

Item F: Permit Revocation, Modification, Reopening, Reissuance or 

 Termination, and Associated Information Submission Requirements - 6 

 NYCRR 201-6.5 (a) (3) 

 This permit may be modified, revoked, reopened and reissued, or 

 terminated for cause. The filing of a request by the permittee for a 

 permit modification, revocation and reissuance, or termination, or of 

 a notification of planned changes or anticipated noncompliance does 

 not stay any permit condition. 

Item G: Cessation or Reduction of Permitted Activity Not a Defense - 6 NYCRR

 unavoidable, and the corrective action(s) taken in response. 

 3. Opacity Incident Reporting ("OIR") 

 The station shall maintain an OIR log for recording relevant equipment 

 and operational information for each excess opacity emission incident. 

 An excess opacity emission incident is defined as one or more 

 six-minute periods in which the average opacity exceeds 20%, except 

 for one six-minute period per hour of not more than 27%, which are 

 caused by the same set of circumstances. The OIR log shall be 

 completed before the end of each operating shift and shall at a 

 minimum include the following categories of information: 

 a. identification of the process and/or equipment involved; 

 b. the excess opacity emission incident start time; 

 c. the six-minute average opacity measurements during the excess 

 opacity emissions incident 

 d. the mode of operation (for example, cold startup); 

 e. a description of the excess opacity emission incident and, as 

 necessary, a sequence of all events that led up to/caused the 

 incident(s); 

 f. a description of the preliminary cause of the excess opacity 

 emission incident; 

 g. the corrective action taken, together with the date and time of 

 same; 

 h. the result(s) of the corrective action taken;

 accurate and complete, and shall be postmarked by the 60th day 

 following the end of each calendar quarter. Each report shall contain 

 the following: 

 a. a summary page providing the total number of exceedences; total 

 number of unexcused exceedences; monitor down time expressed as 

 percentage of operating time; compliance rates, based on both total 

 reported and unexcused exceedences expressed (to the hundredth) as a 

 percentage of operating time; 

 b. the magnitude, date and time of each six-minute block average 

 during which the average opacity of emissions exceeds 20 percent, 

 except for one six-minute block average per hour not to exceed 27 

 percent; 

 c. for each excess opacity emission incident, specific identification 

 of the cause and corrective action taken; 

 d. identification of all periods of COMS down time, including the 

 date, time and duration of each inoperable period, and the cause(s) 

 and corrective action (s) for each period of COMS down time; 

 e. the total time in which the COMS are required to record data 

 during the reporting period ("time combustion installation is in 

 service"); and 

 f. the total number of excess opacity emission incidents and the 

 duration of said incidents expressed as a percentage of the total time 

 in which the COMS are required to record data. 

 5. Root Cause Analysis and Corrective Actions 

 The Station shall identify the causes of excess opacity emission 

 incidents by means of root cause analysis. By April 15 of each 

 calendar year, the quarterly opacity reports from the prior calendar 

 year shall be reviewed to identify any consistent patterns for excess 

 opacity emissions incidents and to determine if past corrective 

 actions have resulted in improvements. Excess opacity emission 

 incident patterns that are identified shall be investigated.

 of the heat input, in mmBtu/hr, and the actual emissions rate, 

 determined from emissions testing, multiplied by 1.1, as 

 follows: 

 1. Actual emissions rates firing oil and gas are determined from 

 emissions testing at three operating loads for each fuel. From the 

 results of the most recent test at three operating loads, the highest 

 emission rate shall be used to compute NOx emissions. 

 2. The heat input to the boiler shall be computed as the product of 

 the amount of fuel fired each month (gallons of oil per month or cubic 

 feet of gas per month) and the gross heating value of the fuel 

 (Btu/gallon for oil or Btu/cubic foot for gas) as determined by vendor 

 receipts, vendor fuel analyses, or station analyses. 

 3. The amount of fuel fired shall be determined using fuel flow 

 meters. 

 4. Purchase records of the amounts of fuel combusted shall also be 

 maintained. 

 5. The owner or operator shall compute the NOx emissions for each

 into the outdoor atmosphere of particulates in excess of 0.10 pound 

 per million Btu heat input from any oil fired stationary combustion 

 installation. Upon written application, the commissioner may exempt a 

 person from the provisions of this section, when in view of the 

 properties of the emissions, isolated conditions, stack height and 

 other factors, it is clearly demonstrated that the emissions thus 

 permitted will not cause a contravention of established ambient air 

 quality standards. 

 Compliance testing must be performed once during the term of the

Item 94.1:

At the discretion of the commissioner a violation of any applicable emission standard for 

necessary scheduled equipment maintenance, start-up/shutdown conditions and malfunctions or 

upsets may be excused if such violations are unavoidable. The following actions and 

recordkeeping and reporting requirements must be adhered to in such circumstances. 

(a) The facility owner and/or operator shall compile and maintain records of all 

equipment maintenance or start-up/shutdown activities when they can be expected to result in an 

exceedance of any applicable emission standard, and shall submit a report of such activities to 

the commissioner's representative when requested to do so in writing or when so required by a 

condition of a permit issued for the corresponding air contamination source except where 

conditions elsewhere in this permit which contain more stringent reporting and notification 

provisions for an applicable requirement, in which case they supersede those stated here. Such 

reports shall describe why the violation was unavoidable and shall include the time, frequency 

and duration of the maintenance and/or start-up/shutdown activities and the identification of air 

contaminants, and the estimated emission rates. If a facility owner and/or operator is subject to 

continuous stack monitoring and quarterly reporting requirements, he need not submit reports 

for equipment maintenance or start-up/shutdown for the facility to the commissioner's 

representative. 

(b) In the event that emissions of air contaminants in excess of any emission standard 

in 6 NYCRR Chapter III Subchapter A occur due to a malfunction, the facility owner and/or 

operator shall report such malfunction by telephone to the commissioner's representative as soon 

as possible during normal working hours, but in any event not later than two working days after 

becoming aware that the malfunction occurred. Within 30 days thereafter, when requested in 

writing by the commissioner's representative, the facility owner and/or operator shall submit a 

written report to the commissioner's representative describing the malfunction, the corrective 

action taken, identification of air contaminants, and an estimate of the emission rates. These 

reporting requirements are superseded by conditions elsewhere in this permit which contain 

reporting and notification provisions for applicable requirements more stringent than those 

above. 

(c) The Department may also require the owner and/or operator to include in reports 

described under (a) and (b) above an estimate of the maximum ground level concentration of 

each air contaminant emitted and the effect of such emissions depending on the deviation of the 

malfunction and the air contaminants emitted. 

(d) In the event of maintenance, start-up/shutdown or malfunction conditions which 

result in emissions exceeding any applicable emission standard, the facility owner and/or 

operator shall take appropriate action to prevent emissions which will result in contravention of 

any applicable ambient air quality standard. Reasonably available control technology, as 

determined by the commissioner, shall be applied during any maintenance, start-up/shutdown or

 Permit Description

 Introduction

The Title V operating air permit is intended to be a document containing only enforceable terms and

conditions as well as any additional information, such as the identification of emission units, emission

points, emission sources and processes, that makes the terms meaningful. 40 CFR Part 70.7(a)(5) requires

that each Title V permit have an accompanying "...statement that sets forth the legal and factual basis for

the draft permit conditions". The purpose for this permit review report is to satisfy the above requirement

by providing pertinent details regarding the permit/application data and permit conditions in a more easily

understandable format. This report will also include background narrative and explanations of regulatory

decisions made by the reviewer. It should be emphasized that this permit review report, while based on

information contained in the permit, is a separate document and is not itself an enforceable term and

condition of the permit.

Summary Description of Proposed Project

This permit modification involves the addition of emission limitations related to 6 NYCRR Part 249 Best

Available Retrofit Technology (BART) requirements and changes to the 6 NYCRR Part 227-2 NOx RACT

requirements.

Permit Structure and Description of Operations

The Title V permit for OSWEGO HARBOR POWER

 is structured in terms of the following hierarchy: facility, emission unit, emission point, emission source

and process. A facility is defined as all emission sources located at one or more adjacent or contiguous

properties owned or operated by the same person or persons under common control. The facility is

subdivided into one or more emission units (EU). Emission units are defined as any part or activity of a

stationary facility that emits or has the potential to emit any federal or state regulated air pollutant. An

emission unit is represented as a grouping of processes (defined as any activity involving one or more

emission sources (ES) that emits or has the potential to emit any federal or state regulated air pollutant).

An emission source is defined as any apparatus, contrivance or machine capable of causing emissions of

any air contaminant to the outdoor atmosphere, including any appurtenant exhaust system or air cleaning

feasibility. RACT is a control strategy used to limit emissions of VOC’s and NOx for the purpose of

attaining the air quality standard for ozone. The term as it is used in the above table refers to those state

air pollution control regulations which specifically regulate VOC and NOx emissions.

SIP State Implementation Plan (40 CFR 52, Subpart HH) - as per the CAAA, all states are

empowered and required to devise the specific combination of controls that, when implemented, will bring

about attainment of ambient air quality standards established by the federal government and the individual

state. This specific combination of measures is referred to as the SIP. The term here refers to those state

regulations that are approved to be included in the SIP and thus are considered federally enforceable.

Compliance Status

Facility is in compliance with all requirements.

SIC Codes

SIC or Standard Industrial Classification code is an industrial code developed by the federal Office of

Management and Budget for use, among other things, in the classification of establishments by the type of

activity in which they are engaged. Each operating establishment is assigned an industry code on the basis

of its primary activity, which is determined by its principal product or group of products produced or

distributed, or services rendered. Larger facilities typically have more than one SIC code.

SIC Code Description

4911 ELECTRIC SERVICES

SCC Codes

SCC or Source Classification Code is a code developed and used'' by the USEPA to categorize processes

which result in air emissions for the purpose of assessing emission factor information.Each SCC represents

a unique process or function within a source category logically associated with a point of air pollution

emissions. Any operation that causes air pollution can be represented by one or more SCC’s.

Facility Emissions Summary

In the following table, the CAS No. or Chemical Abstract Service code is an identifier assigned to every

chemical compound. [NOTE: Certain CAS No.’s contain a ‘NY’ designation within them. These are not

true CAS No.’s but rather an identification which has been developed by the department to identify groups

of contaminants which ordinary CAS No.’s do not do. As an example, volatile organic compounds or

VOC’s are identified collectively by the NY CAS No. 0NY998-00-0.] The PTE refers to the Potential to

Emit. This is defined as the maximum capacity of a facility or air contaminant source to emit any air

contaminant under its physical and operational design. Any physical or operational limitation on the

capacity of the facility or air contamination source to emit any air contaminant , including air pollution

control equipment and/or restrictions on the hours of operation, or on the type or amount or material

combusted, stored, or processed, shall be treated as part of the design only if the limitation is contained in

federally enforceable permit conditions. The PTE Range represents an emission range for a contaminant.

Any PTE quantity that is displayed represents a facility-wide emission cap or limitation for that

contaminant. If no PTE quantity is displayed, the PTE Range is provided to indicate the approximate

magnitude of facility-wide emissions for the specified contaminant in terms of tons per year (tpy). The

term ‘HAP’ refers to any of the hazardous air pollutants listed in section 112(b) of the Clean Air Act

Amendments of 1990. Total emissions of all hazardous air pollutants are listed under the special NY

CAS No. 0NY100-00-0. In addition, each individual hazardous air pollutant is also listed under its own

specific CAS No. and is identified in the list below by the (HAP) designation.

all reasonable steps to minimize levels of emissions that exceeded the emission

standards, or other requirements in the permit; and

(4) The facility owner and/or operator notified the Department within two

working days after the event occurred. This notice must contain a description of

the emergency, any steps taken to mitigate emissions, and corrective actions taken.

 (b) In any enforcement proceeding, the facility owner and/or operator seeking to establish the

 occurrence of an emergency has the burden of proof.

 (c) This provision is in addition to any emergency or upset provision contained in any

 applicable requirement.

Item B: Public Access to Recordkeeping for Title V Facilities - 6 NYCRR 201-1.10(b)

 The Department will make available to the public any permit application, compliance

 plan, permit, and monitoring and compliance certification report pursuant to Section

Basis for Monitoring

6NYCRR Part 201-7

Emission Unit U-00010 has emission caps of 39 tons per year for both NOx and SO2. these caps were

implemented when the unit was installed to avoid applicability to PSD and NSR. Monitoring of emissions

is required to ensure the unit's emissions remain under the applicability thresholds.

6NYCRR Part 225-1

Fuel oil used at the facility has a sulfur-in-fuel limitation. Monitoring must be performed to ensure the fuel

oil meets the requirement.
