There are several small natural gas fired boilers and air conditioners used for comfort heating or cooling and potable hot water, all of which qualify as exempt or trivial sources under 6 NYCRR Part 201. This emission unit (also called vaporizer #10) is a boiler designed to vaporize liquefied natural gas (LNG). Exhaust is through a single stack. Under this renewal, the facility is requesting to cap its facility wide NOx emission to less than 47.4 T/yr based on a 12 mo. rolling period to avoid Sub Part 231-2, New Source Review requirements. Records demonstrating compliance with NOx cap will be kept in accordance with the permit special conditions. The boilers and the engines emissions limits subject to Subpart 227-2 are included in the National Grid's System Averaging Plan under Subpart 227-2.5(b). Two of the six vaporizers used to gasify LNG will be decommissioned and replaced with functionally identical units. In accordance with 6NYCRR Parts 621.7(b)(9) and 201-6.3(c), the Administrator of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) has the authority to bar issuance of any Title V Facility Permit if it is determined not to be in compliance with applicable requirements of the Clean Air Act or 6NYCRR Part 201.
