Petition for Reconsideration of Action in Rulemaking Proceeding, 11418-11419 [E8-4050]

Download as PDF rmajette on PROD1PC64 with NOTICES 11418 Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 42 / Monday, March 3, 2008 / Notices monthly monitoring method, under 40 CFR part 60, subpart Dc? A2: Yes. EPA approves the use of fuel receipts from a gas supplier to serve as monthly monitoring method under NSPS subpart Dc. Q3: Could EPA determine whether the amount of natural gas used by the affected facility (vaporizer) can be determined by the following calculation method rather than direct measurement: (monthly vaporizer gas usage) = (monthly site natural gas usage from fuel bill)¥(average monthly site natural gas usage before installation of the vaporizer). A3: Yes. EPA finds that the amount of natural gas used by the affected facility (vaporizer) can be determined by the calculation method proposed rather than by direct measurement, as long as the average monthly site natural gas usage before installation of the vaporizer was nearly constant and will remain the same with no new natural gas usage. Abstract for [0700026]: Q1: Does EPA approve a request for a reduction in the fuel usage recordkeeping requirement in 40 CFR part 60, subpart Dc, § 60.48c, from daily to monthly for two 25.13 MMBTU/hr boilers fueled by propane and located at Glanbia Foods Inc. (Glanbia) facility in Richfield, Idaho? A1: Yes. EPA approves the request for a reduction in the fuel usage recordkeeping requirement in 40 CFR 60.48c from daily to monthly. This approval is based on a memorandum dated February 20, 1992, from the EPA Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards, which states that there is little value in requiring daily recordkeeping of the amounts of fuel combusted for an affected unit that fires only natural gas, and the definition of natural gas, from the Acid Rain Program, in 40 CFR part 72. Q2. Does EPA approve one gas meter for two boilers that will measure the total natural gas usage per month? A2. Yes. When more than one boiler is firing propane simultaneously, they will divide each boiler design heat input capacity by the total of the design heat input capacities of each boiler, and use this to prorate the natural gas usage of each boiler on a monthly basis. EPA determines that this will adequately determine the fuel usage by each boiler. Abstract for [0700027]: Q1: Does EPA approve a reduction in the fuel usage recordkeeping requirement in 40 CFR part 60, subpart Dc, § 60.48c, from daily to monthly for boilers fueled by natural gas, diesel fuel and/or biomass located at the Glanbia Foods Incorporated facility in Gooding, Idaho? VerDate Aug<31>2005 16:15 Feb 29, 2008 Jkt 214001 A1: EPA finds that boiler No. 1 is not subject to NSPS subpart Dc requirements since it was installed before the applicability date of the rule. EPA approves the request from Glanbia for a reduction in the fuel usage recordkeeping requirement in 40 CFR 60.48c of Subpart Dc from daily to monthly for Boilers 2, 3, and 4, which burn natural gas exclusively or natural gas with diesel fuel as a backup. The approval for boilers No. 2 through 4 is based on a memorandum dated February 20, 1992, from the EPA Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards which states that there is little value in requiring daily recordkeeping of the amounts of fuel combusted for an affected unit that fires only natural gas or natural gas with clean low-sulfur fuel oil (sulfur content less than 0.5 percent) as a backup. Q2: Does EPA approve one gas meter for several boilers fueled by natural gas that will measure the total natural gas usage per month? A2: Yes. EPA determines that this will adequately determine the fuel usage by each boiler. When more than one boiler is firing natural gas simultaneously, they will divide each boiler design heat input capacity by the total of the design heat input capacities of each boiler, and use this to prorate the natural gas usage of each boiler on a monthly basis. For boilers 2 and 3, which are capable of firing low sulfur diesel fuel, each boiler will maintain individual fuel oil meters. Q3: Does EPA approve a reduction in the fuel usage record-keeping requirement in 40 CFR 60.48c from daily to monthly for boiler No. 5, which is fueled by biogas, from the wastewater treatment effluent process as the primary fuel and can burn natural gas as a backup? A3: No. EPA cannot approve this request at this time because the decision to reduce this requirement for certain boilers is based on the assumption that that fuel has low sulfur content. The sulfur content of natural gas is well known; however, the use of biogas in the context of this regulation has not been addressed before and it is uncertain what the sulfur content of biogas would be in this particular case. Abstract for [0700028]: Q: Is 40 CFR part 60, subpart Dc, applicable to Trident’s Boiler No. 6, which was installed at the facility in 1994 but which the manufacturer’s nameplate shows as constructed in 1976? A: No. NSPS subpart Dc applies to ‘‘Each steam generating unit for which construction, modification, or reconstruction is commenced after June 9, 1989.’’ The boiler was operated prior to June 9, 1989, elsewhere in Alaska PO 00000 Frm 00038 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 before its relocation and it has not been rebuilt, reconstructed, or modified since its original installation. Under the NSPS general provisions, 40 CFR 60.14(e)(6), the relocation or change in ownership of an existing facility shall not, by itself, be considered a modification. Abstract for [0700063]: Q: Do 40 CFR part 60, subpart NNN (Distillation Operations in the Synthetic Organic Chemical Industry (SOCMI)) and 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart RRR (Reactor Operations in the SOCMI), apply to the manufacturing of biodiesel and glycerin from soybean oil and methanol at the North Prairie Productions (NPP) facility located in Evansville, Wisconsin? A: Yes. NSPS subparts NNN and RRR apply to the production of glycerin from soybean oil and methanol at the NPP biodiesel manufacturing facility, although certain exemptions may apply to the facility based on its production capacity and vent stream characteristics. The Agency finds that the production of glycerin in the process described by NPP is SOCMI, as both glycerin and methanol are SOCMI chemicals and appear on the chemical use trees. Additionally, the NPP process will use distillation and reaction operations, the units defined as affected facilities under Subparts NNN and RRR, respectively, which will result in emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which are the pollutants of concern under those NSPS.
