Universal Citation: OH Admin Code 3745-18-31

Current through all regulations passed and filed through September 16, 2024

(A) No owner or operator of a facility in Franklin county, unless otherwise specified in this rule, shall cause or permit the emission of sulfur dioxide from any stack in excess of the following rates:

(1) For fossil fuel-fired steam generating units between 10.0 and 50.0 MM Btu per hour total rated heat input capacity, the emission rate in pounds of sulfur dioxide per MM Btu actual heat input shall be calculated by the following equation:

EL = 8.088 Qm- 0.4307

where:

Qm is the total rated heat input capacity in MM Btu per hour, and

EL is the allowable emission rate in pounds of sulfur dioxide per MM Btu actual heat input.

(2) For fossil fuel-fired steam generating units equal to or greater than 50.0 MM Btu per hour total rated heat input capacity, the emission limitation shall be 1.50 pounds of sulfur dioxide per MM Btu actual heat input.

(3) Except as otherwise provided in this rule, no owner or operator of any process equipment shall cause or permit the emission from any stack into the atmosphere of any process gas stream containing sulfur dioxide in excess of 2.40 pounds of sulfur dioxide per ton of actual process weight input.

(B) The " Ohio ANG 121st Refueling Wing" (OEPA premise number 0125000827) or any subsequent owner or operator of the "Ohio ANG 121st Refueling Wing, Columbus, Ohio" shall not cause or permit the emission of sulfur dioxide from any stack at this facility in excess of 2.20 pounds of sulfur dioxide per MM BTU actual heat input.
