  8. Affected 30 TAC Chapters

  9. Basics

  10. The Pollutant GHGs

  11. Calculating CO2e

  12. Applicability

  13. Title V Applicability • Potential to emit • 100 tpy or more GHGs on mass basis, and • 100,000 tpy or more CO2e

  14. Title V Applicability Example • Mass basis (condition 1) • 25,000 tpy CO2 • 5,000 tpy CH4 • 1,000 tpy N2O = 31,000 tpy GHGs

  15. Title V Applicability Example • CO2e (condition 2) • (25,000 tpy CO2) x (1 GWP) • (5,000 tpy CH4) x (25 GWP) • (1,000 tpy N2O) x (298 GWP) =448,000 tpy CO2e

  16. Title V Applicability Example YES! • Does Title V apply? • Mass = 31,000 tpy • 100 tpy or more, and • CO2e = 448,000 • 100,000 tpy or more CO2e

  17. Title V Timeline 12 months

  18. PSD Applicability • EPA’s approach to GHGs • PSD major source • Subject to regulation

  19. PSD Applicability • Mass basis = 100/250 tpy GHGs • New = 100,000 + tpy CO2e • Major mod = 75,000 + tpy CO2e

  20. §116.164(a) • New “non-anyway” (a)(3) • “Anyway” mod • (a)(2) • “Non-anyway” mod • (a)(4) • New “anyway” • (a)(1) • Minor with new major source • (a)(5) • §116.164

  21. PSD Timeline Prior to construction
