Section 97.142. CAIR NOX allowance allocations.
40 CFR § 97.142 - CAIR NOX allowance allocations.
§ 97.142 CAIR NOX allowance allocations.
(1) The baseline heat input (in mmBtu) used with respect to CAIR NOX allowance allocations under paragraph (b) of this section for each CAIR NOX unit will be:
(i) A unit's control period heat input, and a unit's status as coal-fired or oil-fired, for a calendar year under paragraph (a)(1)(i) of this section, and a unit's total tons of NOX emissions during a calendar year under paragraph (c)(3) of this section, will be determined in accordance with part 75 of this chapter, to the extent the unit was otherwise subject to the requirements of part 75 of this chapter for the year, or will be based on the best available data reported to the Administrator for the unit (in a format prescribed by the Administrator), to the extent the unit was not otherwise subject to the requirements of part 75 of this chapter for the year.
(1) For each control period in 2009 and thereafter, the Administrator will allocate to all CAIR NOX units in a State that have a baseline heat input (as determined under paragraph (a) of this section) a total amount of CAIR NOX allowances equal to 95 percent for a control period during 2009 through 2014, and 97 percent for a control period during 2015 and thereafter, of the tons of NOX emissions in the applicable State trading budget under § 97.140 (except as provided in paragraphs (d) and (e) of this section).
(1) The Administrator will establish a separate new unit set-aside for each control period. Each new unit set-aside will be allocated CAIR NOX allowances equal to 5 percent for a control period in 2009 through 2014, and 3 percent for a control period in 2015 and thereafter, of the amount of tons of NOX emissions in the applicable State trading budget under § 97.140.
(d) If, after completion of the procedures under paragraph (c)(4) of this section for a control period, any unallocated CAIR NOX allowances remain in the new unit set-aside under paragraph (c) of this section for a State for the control period, the Administrator will allocate to each CAIR NOX unit that was allocated CAIR NOX allowances under paragraph (b) of this section in the State an amount of CAIR NOX allowances equal to the total amount of such remaining unallocated CAIR NOX allowances, multiplied by the unit's allocation under paragraph (b) of this section, divided by 95 percent for a control period during 2009 through 2014, and 97 percent for a control period during 2015 and thereafter, of the amount of tons of NOX emissions in the applicable State trading budget under § 97.140, and rounded to the nearest whole allowance as appropriate.
(e) If the Administrator determines that CAIR NOX allowances were allocated under paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section, paragraphs (a) and (c) of this section, or paragraph (d) of this section for a control period and that the recipient of the allocation is not actually a CAIR NOX unit under § 97.104 in such control period, then the Administrator will notify the CAIR designated representative and will act in accordance with the following procedures:
(1) Except as provided in paragraph (e)(2) or (3) of this section, the Administrator will not record such CAIR NOX allowances under § 97.153.
(2) If the Administrator already recorded such CAIR NOX allowances under § 97.153 and if the Administrator makes such determination before making deductions for the source that includes such recipient under § 97.154(b) for the control period, then the Administrator will deduct from the account in which such CAIR NOX allowances were recorded under § 97.153 an amount of CAIR NOX allowances allocated for the same or a prior control period equal to the amount of such already recorded CAIR NOX allowances. The CAIR designated representative shall ensure that there are sufficient CAIR NOX allowances in such account for completion of the deduction.
(3) If the Administrator already recorded such CAIR NOX allowances under § 97.153 and if the Administrator makes such determination after making deductions for the source that includes such recipient under § 97.154(b) for the control period, then the Administrator will apply paragraph (e)(1) or (2) of this section, as appropriate, to any subsequent control period for which CAIR NOX allowances were allocated to such recipient.
