State emissions limitations for boilers: sulfur dioxide

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5324322
This document summarizes regulations applicable to boilers as reflected in current state and local air regulations. Not all of these regulations are officially part of Federally-approved State Implementation Plans (SIPs). Several regulations have only recently been adopted by the State and are now undergoing EPA review for incorporation into the SIP. Each summary also contains local regulations more stringent than the State rules. Most local regulations in this handbook are included in the State Implementation Plans. Site-specific emission limits (variances from state limits or limits more stringent than state limits) are not included in these summaries. Appendix A contains maps showing the location of Air Quality Control Regions or other districts by which several states regulate emissions. Appendix B contains a summary of National Ambient Air Quality Standards, which states are required to meet as a minimum. Appendix C contains a description and summary of Federal New Source performance Standards. Appendix D contains formulas for conversion of emissions limits expressed in one set of units to the most common units - numberSO/sub 2//MMBtu.
