(a)Except as provided for in paragraphs
(b)through
(e)of this section, for each new, modified, or reconstructed stationary combustion turbine you must not cause to be discharged from the affected facility and into the atmosphere any gases that contain an amount of SO2 exceeding either:
(1)110 nanograms per Joule (ng/J) (0.90 pounds per megawatt-hour (lb/MWh)) gross energy output; or
(2)26 ng SO2/J (0.060 lb SO2/MMBtu) heat input.
(b)For each new, modified, or reconstructed stationary combustion turbine combusting 50 percent or more low-Btu gas per calendar month based on total heat input (using the HHV of the fuel), you must not cause to be discharged from the affected facility and into the atmosphere any gases that contain an amount of SO2 exceeding either:
(1)650 milligrams of sulfur per standard cubic meter (mg/scm) (28 grains
(gr)of sulfur per 100 standard cubic feet (scf)); or
(2)65 ng SO2/J (0.15 lb SO2/MMBtu) heat input.
(c)For each new, modified, or reconstructed stationary combustion turbine located in a noncontinental area, you must not cause to be discharged from the affected facility and into the atmosphere any gases that contain an amount of SO2 exceeding either:
(1)780 ng/J (6.2 lb/MWh) gross energy output; or
(2)180 ng SO2/J (0.42 lb SO2/MMBtu) heat input.
(d)For each new, modified, or reconstructed stationary combustion turbine for which the Administrator determines that the affected facility does not have access to natural gas and that the removal of sulfur compounds from the fuel would cause more environmental harm than benefit, you must not cause to be discharged from the affected facility and into the atmosphere any gases that contain an amount of SO2 exceeding either:
(1)780 ng/J (6.2 lb/MWh) gross energy output; or
(2)180 ng SO2/J (0.42 lb SO2/MMBtu) heat input.
(e)A stationary combustion turbine subject to either subpart J or Ja of this part is not subject to the SO2 performance standards in this subpart.
