Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission
[Docket No. PL12–1–000]
The Commission’s Role Regarding the
Environmental Protection Agency’s
Mercury and Air Toxics Standards;
Policy Statement on the Commission’s
Role Regarding the Environmental
Protection Agency’s Mercury and Air
Toxics Standards
Before Commissioners: Jon Wellinghoff,
Chairman; Philip D. Moeller, John R.
Norris, and Cheryl A. LaFleur.
1. The Commission issues this Policy
Statement to explain how it will provide
advice to the Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) for it to rule on requests
for Administrative Orders (AO) to
operate in noncompliance with EPA’s
Mercury and Air Toxics Standards
(MATS).1 As noted below, this Policy
Statement does not represent the
entirety of the Commission’s efforts to
monitor the impact of EPA regulations
generally on bulk-power system
reliability.
I. Introduction
2. On December 21, 2011, the EPA
released the MATS final rule pursuant
to its authority under Section 112 of the
Clean Air Act (CAA).2 The MATS final
rule limits mercury, acid gases and
other toxic emissions from power
plants. Pursuant to Section 112(i)(3)(A)
1 National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants from Coal- and Oil-fired Electric Utility
Steam Generating Units and Standards of
Performance for Fossil-Fuel-Fired Electric Utility,
Industrial-Commercial-Institutional, and Small
Industrial-Commercial-Institutional Steam
Generating Units, https://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/
FR-2012-02-16/pdf/2012-806.pdf.

PO 00000

of the CAA, affected sources are
required to comply within three years of
the MATS effective date. Pursuant to
CAA Section 112(i)(3)(B), some affected
sources are eligible for a one-year
extension (i.e. for a total of four years).3
3. The EPA’s Office of Enforcement
and Compliance Assurance released a
policy memorandum (EPA Policy
Memorandum) dated December 16, 2011
describing its intended approach
regarding the use of CAA Section 113(a)
AOs with respect to sources that must
operate in noncompliance with the
MATS for up to a year to address a
specific and documented reliability
concern (i.e. for a total of five years).4
4. On January 30, 2012, Commission
staff issued a White Paper seeking
comment concerning staff’s position on
how the Commission should advise the
EPA on requests for extension of time to
comply with EPA’s MATS. The
Commission has considered all
comments received in the formulation
of this Policy Statement, which is
limited in scope to how the Commission
will handle an AO filing under CAA
Section 113(a) for noncompliance with
the MATS. This Policy Statement does
not address the entirety of the
Commission’s efforts to monitor the
impact of EPA regulations generally on
bulk-power system reliability.
II. Background
A. Compliance With EPA’s Mercury and
Air Toxics Standards
5. Under Section 112(i)(3) of the CAA,
affected sources must be compliant with
MATS within three years, with an
extension of up to one year available in
certain cases.5 In addition to the up to
four-year compliance period
contemplated in Section 112(i)(3), the
EPA Policy Memorandum describes a
process by which certain affected
sources can obtain an AO to operate in
noncompliance for an additional year
pursuant to Section 113(a) of the CAA.
Specifically, the EPA Policy
Memorandum contemplates that the
EPA will receive AO requests: (1)
Concerning electric generating units
(EGUs) that may affect reliability due to
deactivation; and (2) concerning EGUs
3 See
id. § 7412(i)(3)(B).
Environmental Protection Agency’s
Enforcement Response Policy For Use Of Clean Air
Act Section 113(a) Administrative Orders In
Relation To Electric Reliability And The Mercury
and Air Toxics Standard (Dec. 16, 2011), https://
www.epa.gov/compliance/resources/policies/civil/
erp/mats-erp.pdf.
5 The EPA Policy Memorandum refers to the date
by which affected sources must comply under
Section 112(i)(3) of the CAA (which includes the
possible one-year extension under Section
112(i)(3)(B)) as the ‘‘MATS Compliance Date.’’
