Download as PDF daltland on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 33 / Friday, February 16, 2018 / Notices WCCF units U1 and U2 are fossil fuelfired combustion turbines that began operating in 2005. According to MG&E, through 2015 the units qualified for an exemption from CSAPR applicability that is available to certain cogeneration units, but during 2016 the units no longer met the full set of qualifying conditions for the exemption. Applying the CSAPR definitions and applicability criteria, MG&E concluded that the units would become CSAPR-affected units as of January 1, 2017 and would be deemed to ‘‘commence commercial operation’’ for CSAPR purposes as of that same date.1 These conclusions in turn indicated a deadline of June 30, 2017 (i.e., 180 calendar days after the units’ deemed date of commencement of commercial operation) for MG&E to certify monitoring systems and to begin monitoring the units’ emissions.2 MG&E is required to hold allowances sufficient to cover the units’ reported emissions occurring on and after the units’ monitor certification deadline.3 Under the CSAPR regulations, a newly affected unit is treated as a ‘‘new’’ unit potentially eligible to receive first-round and/or second-round NUSA allocations. As relevant here, a newly affected unit is generally eligible to receive second-round NUSA allocations with respect to its reported emissions occurring on and after its monitor certification deadline in the calendar year in which the unit is deemed to have commenced commercial operation for CSAPR purposes and in the following calendar year.4 EPA did not initially identify WCCF units U1 and U2 as eligible for second-round 2017 NUSA allocations because the monitoring plan MG&E submitted to us for the units included an April 26, 2005 date of commencement of commercial operation, reflecting the units’ actual operating history, rather than the January 1, 2017 deemed date of commencement of commercial operation for CSAPR purposes. Based on the additional information provided by MG&E described above, we are now using the January 1, 2017 deemed date of commencement of commercial operation to evaluate the units’ eligibility, and we consequently have included the units when calculating the second-round 2017 NUSA allocations. The final unit-by-unit data and allowance allocation calculations are set forth in Excel spreadsheets titled 1 See, e.g., 40 CFR 97.404(b)(1)(ii) and 97.402 (definition of ‘‘commence commercial operation’’). 2 See, e.g., 40 CFR 97.430(b). 3 See, e.g., 40 CFR 97.406(c)(3)(i). 4 See, e.g., 40 CFR 97.412(a)(9). VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:24 Feb 15, 2018 Jkt 244001 ‘‘CSAPR_NUSA_2017_NOx_Annual_ 2nd_Round_Final_Data_New_Units’’, ‘‘CSAPR_NUSA_2017_NOx_Ozone_ Season_2nd_Round_Final_Data_New_ Units’’, ‘‘CSAPR_NUSA_2017_SO2_ 2nd_Round_Final_Data_New_Units’’, ‘‘CSAPR_NUSA_2017_NOx_Annual_ 2nd_Round_Final_Data_Existing_ Units’’, ‘‘CSAPR_NUSA_2017_NOx_ Ozone_Season_2nd_Round_Final_Data_ Existing_Units’’, and ‘‘CSAPR_NUSA_ 2017_SO2_2nd_Round_Final_Data_ Existing_Units’’, available on EPA’s website at https://www.epa.gov/csapr/ csapr-compliance-year-2017-nusanodas. EPA notes that an allocation or lack of allocation of allowances to a given unit does not constitute a determination that CSAPR does or does not apply to the unit. We also note that under 40 CFR 97.411(c), 97.511(c), 97.611(c), 97.711(c), and 97.811(c), allocations are subject to potential correction if a unit to which allowances have been allocated for a given control period is not actually an affected unit as of the start of that control period. Authority: 40 CFR 97.411(b), 97.511(b), 97.611(b), 97.711(b), and 97.811(b). Dated: January 25, 2018. Reid P.
