# Dear~~ On February 4, 1993, Vermont Agency of Natural Resources Secretary Chuck Clarke submitted changes to Vennont ' s SIP to meet requirements of the Clean 

## Air Act Amendments of 1990. The submittal included regulations which had already been adopted at the state level and which had been through public hearing previously but not incorporated into the SIP, as well as newly proposed regulations and SIP Narrative changes to meet other requirements of the amended Act
. On March 17, 1993 , EPA submitted comments for the public hearing record on those portions of the submittal which dealt with regulatory changes and SIP Narrative changes being proposed by Vennont and for which a public hearing was scheduled on March**10~** 

## 1993 with comment period extending until March 17, 1993. On May 21, 1993, the Agency forwarded a detailed response to EPA's comments describing the way in which the state intended to address each one. At the time of the submittal in 

## February, we had requested that the proposed rules be parallel processed, which due to the nature of the deficiencies identified in EPA's comments, EPA declined to initiate. The materials enclosed are the proposed rules which were subsequentl y amended to address public · comment. · These have completed the state adoption process and will become effective regulations on August 13, 1993. The SIP Narrative enclosed has been through public hearing on March 10, 1993 and has had changes incorporated in response to EPA's comments on March 17 , 1993. Together these mat e rial s address the deficiencies identified in EPA's comments and should be considered along with the other adopted regulations previously submitted on February 4 as the complete SIP submittal to address Clean Air Act requirements related to emission statements, control of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), control of nitrogen oxide (NOJ emissions, and review

Background Discussion:
The public involvement process related to 

## the adopted rules being submitted with this 

## SIP revision package included a public hearing held on March 10, 1993. Comments received through March 17, 1993 were fully considered in developing these adopted rules. The hearing was for rules related to the control of sources of volatile organic compounds, the control of nitrogen oxides , and revised rules for the review of major stationary sources and major modifications. An 

## earlier SIP revision package submitted under cover letter dated February 4, 1993 , had requested that the rules being submitted now be parallel processed and had included proposed versions of them
. That request was denied and this package now submits the adopted version of the rules which were amended from their proposed version in response to 

## the public hearing and comment process at the state level. The earlier SIP package also had contained a set of previously adopted rules to 

## meet other RACT
.and CTG requirements as well as requirements for "Emission Statements"
. This submittal does not change or alter the adopted rules which had been submitted on February 4 , 1993
. Public involvement on the SIP Narrative changes being submitted with this SIP revision package has also been obtained through a public hearing held on March 10, 1993 , and through comments received from EPA on March 17 , 1993

# . PROPOSED CHANGES TO VERMONT STATE 

# IMPLEMENTATION PLAN FOR AIR QUALITY



# AIR POLLUTION AGENCY:

. NATURAL RESOURCES CONCISE SUMMARY: On November 15, 1990 the federa l Clean Air Act was amended to require further action by states, includin g Vermont, to attain national air quality standards for ozone.AlthouQh Vermont does not have violations of any national amb ient air quality standard at the present time, the Clean Air Act Amendments require regionally consistent programs to address the non-attain· • ment
. status for ozone which does exist in most major urban areas of the

northeast. The Act established the Northeast Ozone Transport Region which includes all of the New England states as well as New York, New Jersey, · Delaware, Maryland, and Pennsylvan i a . It mandates certain uniform application : of control strategies in this Region ; regardless of the actual designated status of

any particular state
. A number of the regulatory changes required of Vermont were proposed on July 23, 1992 and adopted after pub lic hearing held on August 25, 1992
. Additional regulatory changes are being proposed today through public notice appearing elsewhere in this newspaper. The hearing for those additional
· regulatory changes i s discussed in that public notice. In addition to the regula- ' tions being proposed for hearing, changes to thfl narrative portion of the State

. Implementation Plan are also being proposed today. The State Implementation Plan is comprised of the set of federally enforceable • state regulations which are . includ ed in it, as well as the narrative discussion of

how these regulations will be implemented. This notice serves to announce the availability of the proposed narrative

. language changes which are necessary for compliance with requirements of the federal Clean Air Act· Amendments of 1990.

. In summary, the particular narrative changes being proposed at this time
· include discussion of the following: ·

. . 1. The way that Vermont's plan w ill address the requirement for major station-

, ary sources of

. volatile organic compounds and nitrogen oxides to subm i t annual " emission statements•. The emission statement requirement is proposed to be • met through the a lready adopted regulation which requires a stationary source of • any air contaminant in Vermont to register annually if it emits more than 5 tons

. annually .of all air contaminants in total. 2. How the plan will interpret and implement the requirements for emission offsets from newly proposed very large(> 100 tons per year) sources of nitrogen oxides

. ·

3
. How the plan will implement a program to apply reasonably availab le control technology (RACT) to existing large ( > 50 tons per year) sources of volatile organic compounds and to existing large ( > 100 tons per year) sources of nitrogen oxides

. ·

4. Updated ambient a ir quality data collec te d for the five criteria air pollutants covered by programs implemented under the federal Clean Air Act.

5. · Draft" mobile so..irce emission inventories developed for the year 1990 which will serve as a major portion of the ·baseyear" ozone - related pollutant emiss ion s inventories. A baseyear (1990) emission inventory cover in g all catego

### i ries of sources of nitrogen oxides, volatile organic compounds, and carbon ' monoxide is being developed for use in reg ion al air quality modeling to be con-

• ducted for purposes of attainment demonstrations in other parts of the Northeasl

Ozone Transport Region. This draft ·mobile source portiQn of the inventory will be · further refined during the next few months and eventually Incorporated with •sta-

. tionary point source· and · general area**source ~in** **ventory** data to comprise a formal revision of the plan narrative to be submitted to EPA prior to November 15,

. .. 1993. AVAILABILITY FOR PUBLIC INSPECTION: The proposed changes to the State
· Implementation Plan narrative will be available for public inspection at ttie • Agency of Natural Resources, Department of Environmental Conservation, Air ' Pollution Control Division offices located in Building 3 South, 103 South Ma in Street , Waterbury, Vermont 05671-0402 or may be obtained from the Division on · request for a copying fee

. ·

SCHEDULED HEARING: A public hearing is scheduled for March ·10, 1993 at the Pavilion Auditorium , State Street, Montpelier, VT 05602 at 7:30 p.m. to receive both oral and written comments on the proposed changes to the SIP Narrative. This hearing - is being held In conjunction with the hearing on the newly
· proposed changes to the Air Pollution Control Regulations which have been

noticed elsewhere in this newspaper today. · DEADLINE FOR COMMENTS: The Agency will fully cons id er all written and oral · submissions regarding the proposed changes to the ' State Implementation Plan

Narrative Which are received on or before March 17, 1993. '

## Waterbury, Vermont ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION REGULATIONS CHAPTER 5 

## AIR POLLUTION CONTROL 

## Subchapter I. Definitions §5-101 "Emission Reduction Credit" or "ERC" means the certified guantity of an emission reduction from a source that may be 

## stored or used as described in 

## Section 5-502. "Federally Enforceable" 

## means all 

## limitations and conditions which 

## are enforceable by the U
. S. Environmental Protection Agency. whether contained 

## in federal regulations. a state implementation plan
. or**con~tru tion**  

## or operating permit s . "Most Stringent Emission Rate CMSER)" means a rate of emissions which the Secretary. on a case-by-case basis. determines is achievable for a source based on the lowest emission rate achieved in 

## practice by such cate gory of source. unless the source demonstrates it cannot achieve such a rate due to economic impacts and costs. Costs of achievement of MSER will be accorded less weight for sources or modifications locatin g in 

## non-attainment areas than for sources or modifications locating 

## in attainment areas for the applicable air contaminant.
.

## In no event shall application of MSER result in emissions of any contaminants in excess of any Federal emission standard or any emission standard contained in these regulations. If the Secretary determines that imposition of an emission standard is infeasible. a design
. equipment. work practice or operational standard. or combination thereof
. may 

## be prescribed instead as constituting MSER. "Permanent "
. in reference to emission re<luctions. means that the emission reduction is assured for the life of the corresponding emission increase. The permanence of the subject reduction shall be guaranteed through an enforceable permit limitation confirming the amount and duration of the decrease. or other enforceable mechanism (e.g
. . permanently dismantling and removing the emissions source. surrendering the permit. etc.). "Quantifiable". in reference to emission reductions. means that the amount. rate and characteristics of the emission reduction can be 

## determined through an accurate and reliable method (e.g
.. through emissions tests . continuous emissions monitoring. material balance
. etc . ) 1
