R307-150-3. Applicability

  (1) R307-150-4 applies to all stationary sources with actual emissions of 100 tons or more per year of sulfur dioxide in calendar year 2000 or any subsequent year unless exempted in R307-150-3(1) (a). Sources subject to R307-150-4 may be subject to other sections of R307-150.

  (a) A stationary source that meets the requirements of R307-150-3(1) that has permanently ceased operation is exempt from the requirements of R307-150-4 for all years during which the source did not operate at any time during the year.

  (b) Notwithstanding R307-150-3(a), beginning with 2016 emissions, the Division of Air Quality will include emissions of 8,005 tons/yr of sulfur dioxide for the Carbon Power Plant in the annual regional sulfur dioxide milestone report required as part of the Regional Haze State Implementation Plan.

  (c) Except as provided in R307-150-3(1)(a), any source that meets the criteria of R307-150-3(1) and that emits less than 100 tons per year of sulfur dioxide in any subsequent year shall remain subject to the requirements of R307-150-4 until 2018 or until the first control period under the Western Backstop Sulfur Dioxide Trading Program as established in R307-250-12(1)(a), whichever is earlier.

  (2) R307-150-5 applies to large major sources.

  (3) R307-150-6 applies to:

  (a) each major source that is not a large major source;

  (b) each source with the potential to emit 5 tons or more per year of lead; and

  (c) each source not included in R307-150-3(2), R307-150-3(3)(a), or R307-150-3(3)(b) that is located in Davis, Salt Lake, Utah, or Weber Counties and that has the potential to emit 25 tons or more per year of any combination of oxides of nitrogen, oxides of sulfur and PM₁₀, or the potential to emit 10 tons or more per year of volatile organic compounds.

  (4) R307-150-7 applies to Part 70 sources not included in R307-150-3(2) or R307-150-3(3).

  (5) R307-150-9 applies to sources with Standard Industrial Classification codes in the major group 13 that have uncontrolled actual emissions greater than one ton per year for a single pollutant of PM₁₀, PM_2.5, oxides of nitrogen, oxides of sulfur, carbon monoxide or volatile organic compounds. These sources include, but are not limited to, industries involved in oil and natural gas exploration, production, and transmission operations; well production facilities; natural gas compressor stations; and natural gas processing plants and commercial oil and gas disposal wells, and ponds.

  (a) Sources that require inventory submittals under R307-150-3(1) through R307-150-3(4) are excluded from the requirements of R307-150-9.
