6 NYCRR Part 227-1 Stationary Combustion Installations
Pursuant to Sections 1-0101, 3-0301, 3-0303, 19-0103, 19-0105, 19-0107, 19-0301, 19-0302, 19-0303, 19-0305, 19-0311, 71-2103, and 71-2105 of the Environmental Conservation Law (ECL), the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYS DEC) hereby gives notice of the following:
The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYS DEC) is proposing to repeal and replace 6 NYCRR Subpart 227-1, "Stationary Combustion Installations" as well as attendant provisions under Part 200, "General Provisions" (collectively, Subpart 227-1). NYS DEC is revising Subpart 227-1 to lower PM emission limits for existing and new stationary combustion installations that either predate, or are not subject to, a federal new source performance standard (NSPS) and/or national emissions standard for hazardous air pollutants (NESHAP). These revisions will also correct minor typographical errors and update the regulation to incorporate changes to the air permitting regulations that have occurred over the past twenty years. In addition, NYS DEC is revising Part 200 to incorporate by reference the applicable federal rule provisions. As required by the Clean Air Act (CAA), NYS DEC will incorporate the revisions to Subpart 227-1 and the attendant revisions to Part 200 into New York's State Implementation Plan (SIP) and provide the revised SIP to United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) for review and approval. The SIP is directed at maintaining the PM national ambient air quality standard (NAAQS) and fulfilling NYS DEC's obligations under the regional haze SIP submitted to the US EPA on March 15, 2010.
NYS DEC will provide interpreter services for deaf persons at no charge. Written requests for interpreter services are required and should be submitted by 5:00 p.m. November 1, 2019 to Richard McAuley, NYS DEC, 625 Broadway, Albany NY 12233-3250, (518) 402-8438, air.regs@dec.ny.gov
6 NYCRR Part 200, "General Provisions"
6 NYCRR Part 222, "Distributed Generation Sources"
NYS DEC adopted 6 NYCRR Part 222, "Distributed Generation Sources," on November 1, 2016. That rule took effect on December 1, 2016. On March 1, 2017, an Article 78 Petition was filed challenging various aspects of Part 222. On July 26, 2017, a Stipulation and Order was issued whereby NYS DEC agreed to stay the adopted rule and propose a new rule pursuant to the State Administrative Procedure Act to replace the adopted rule. The purpose of this rule making is to promulgate a new Part 222.
Distributed generation (DG) sources are engines used by host sites to supply electricity outside that supplied by distribution utilities. This on-site generation of electricity by DG sources is used by a wide-range of commercial, institutional and industrial facilities. DG applications range from supplying electricity during blackouts to all of a facility's electricity demand year-round.
In the new Part 222, the sources affected by the rule are more narrowly defined than in the adopted rule. The proposed rule will apply only in the New York City metropolitan area as defined at 6 NYCRR Part 200.1(au). DG sources enrolled in demand response programs sponsored by the New York Independent System Operator or transmission utilities as well as sources used during times when the cost of electricity supplied by utilities is high (defined separately in Part 222 as price-responsive generation sources) will be subject to the new rule.
In addition, NYS DEC proposes to submit the new Part 222 as well as the attendant revisions to Part 200 to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) as a revision to the State Implementation Plan (SIP) for New York State.
Written comments on the proposed rule may be submitted until 5:00 p.m. on November 25, 2019.
Requests for information and comments related to the SIP revision may be obtained from Robert D. Bielawa, NYSDEC Division of Air Resources, 625 Broadway, Albany, NY 12233-3251, Phone: (518) 402-8396, E-mail: air.regs@dec.ny.gov.
Written statements may be submitted until 5:00 pm on November 25, 2019.

NYS DEC will provide interpreter services for deaf persons at no charge. Written requests for interpreter services are required and should be submitted by November 6, 2019, to Richard McAuley, NYS DEC, 625 Broadway, Albany NY 12233-3250, (518) 402-8438, air.regs@dec.ny.gov
Proposed Approval of the Clerane 180 dry cleaning solvent for use in New York State
The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYS DEC) proposes to approve the Clerane 180 solvent for use in alternative solvent dry cleaning machines regulated under 6 NYCRR Part 232, Dry Cleaning Facilities. Unless the NYS DEC receives significant adverse comments by October 4, 2019, the Clerane 180 solvent will be approved for use after publication on the NYS DEC website at: http://www.dec.ny.gov/chemical/72273.html. Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) for alternative dry cleaning solvents that are proposed for approval, or currently approved for use, are posted on this website. Only approved alternative solvents may be used in alternative solvent dry cleaning machines which operate in New York State after September 6, 2018.
Manufacturers requesting approval of an alternative solvent must submit to the NYS DEC the information specified in 6 NYCRR Part 232-3.8 of the Dry Cleaning Facilities regulation. The NYS DEC will then propose to approve the solvent if it meets the approval criteria stated in the regulation. After approval, should the chemical formulation of the solvent be modified, the re-formulated alternative solvent must be resubmitted and approved by the NYS DEC prior to use in New York State. The NYS DEC will issue all proposed determinations of approval within 90 days of receipt of a complete submission.
