New Lead Monitoring Requirements
• New source-oriented lead monitors at sources ≥ 1.0 tons per year actual emissions.– Four monitors in Indiana were added in
Delaware, Lake (2) and Porter counties. • Second round of designation recommendations
based on these new monitors are due to U.S. EPA in December 2010.

SO2 Implementation Timeline
Deadline Milestone
June 2010 U.S. EPA sets new primary SO2 standard
June 2011 States submit designation recommendations, based on available monitoring data and any modeling in advance of submitting their state implementation plans
June 2012 U.S. EPA issue initial designations
January 2013
New monitoring network operational
June 2013 State maintenance or infrastructure plans due to U.S. EPA
February 2014
State plans for basic requirements to implement the revised standards (including appropriate state regulations to carry out monitoring) due to U.S. EPA
August 2017 Attainment and unclassifiable area state implementation plans modeling attainment of the new standard due to U.S. EPA
August 2017 All areas attain the standard
32
SO2 Designations
U.S. EPA anticipates initially designating areas based on 2008-2010 monitoring data.
Designation Criteria
Nonattainment Monitoring data or modeling results shows a violation of the standard
Attainment Both monitoring data and modeling results showing no violation of the standard
Unclassifiable All other areas
33
SO2 SIP Development Process
• IDEM prefers a single SIP development process to meet all obligations since both maintenance SIP and attainment SIP require modeling and rulemaking.– Addresses all obligations.– Conserve resources.– Ensure timely SIP submittals.– Eliminate confusion associated with rulemaking for emission
limitations or controls.– Reduce the burden of additional monitoring.
34
SO2 Modeling Protocol
• Model Fountain and Warrick counties. These two counties currently monitor nonattainment, but should monitor attainment following the installation of Flue-Gas Desulfurization scrubbers (FGDs) at sources in those counties.
• Model those areas that currently show attainment through monitoring data (Lake, Porter, LaPorte, Jasper, Hendricks and Vanderburgh counties).
• Model those areas (Marion and Gibson counties) which show a downward trend in SO2 emissions, still monitor violations, but may reach attainment in the near future.
• Based on results from the above modeling, Indiana will prioritize the remaining sources greater than 100 tons per year and model starting with the largest source or cluster of sources.
• Areas that measure air quality above the standard and are not expected to attain in the near future will not be modeled until Indiana is ready to draft attainment SIPs.
35
Transport Rule
36
Proposed Clean Air Transport Rule
• Clean Air Interstate Rule (CAIR) remains in place until the proposed transport rule is finalized.
• Affects power plants because their emission reductions are most cost-effective.
• Twenty-one states (including Indiana) will be controlled for precursors of both fine particles and ozone.
– Eight states will be controlled for fine particles only and 4 states will be controlled for ozone only.
• Separate requirements for annual SO2 reductions, NOx reductions, ozone-season NOx reductions, and also sets emissions budgets for each state.
• To meet the proposed rule, U.S. EPA anticipates power plants will operate already installed control equipment more frequently, use lower sulfur coal, or install pollution control equipment.
37
Proposed Clean Air Transport Rule
• By 2014 the benefits include 71% reduction from 2005 levels in SO2 and 52% reduction from 2005 levels in NOx emissions from power plants.
– 6.3 million tons of SO2 per year.
– 1.4 million tons of NOx per year.
• 300,000 tons of NOx during ozone season.
• SO2 emissions would be limited to 2.6 million tons per year (tpy).
• NOx emissions would be limited to 1.3 million tpy.
– Ozone season NOx emissions will be limited to 600,000 tpy.
• U.S. EPA estimates the annual benefits from the proposed rule range between $120-$290 billion in 2014.
• U.S. EPA estimates annual compliance costs to the power sector at $2.8 billion in 2014.
38
Proposed Clean Air Transport Rule
• U.S. EPA is proposing one approach and taking comment on two alternatives. All three approaches would cover the same states, set budgets for each state, and obtain the reductions from power plants.
– U.S. EPA’s preferred approach: allows interstate trading and limited interstate trading among power plants but assures that each state will meet its pollution control obligations.
– First alternative: trading is allowed only among power plants within a state.
– Second alternative: U.S. EPA specifies the allowable emission limit for each power plant and allows some averaging of emission rates.
39
Proposed Clean Air Transport Rule
• Proposal includes four separate control regions:– NOx reductions (2012).– Ozone-season NOx reductions (2012).– Annual SO2 reductions.
• Phase I (2012) and Phase II (2014).• Two control groups.
– Group 1: 2012 cap lowers in 2014.– Group 2: 2012 cap only.
• Indiana is in Group 1.– NOx annual and ozone season.– SO2 annual.

PM2.5 Redesignations
• Uncertainty associated with the implementation of CAIR has prevented approval of Indiana’s redesignation requests.– Lack of support for demonstration for continuation of
maintenance. – Areas pending include Central Indiana, Northwest Indiana
and Southwest Indiana. – Southeast Indiana and Lawrenceburg Township will be
submitted in Fall 2010.
• U.S. EPA intends to propose approval of the pending PM2.5 redesignations based on the proposed transport rule.
• Final approval would be issued following finalization of the transport rule in Spring 2011.
48
Schedule for Final Transport Rule
• Proposal signed on July 6, 2010.• Public comment period ends 60 days after
publication in the Federal Register.• Three public hearings will be held.• U.S. EPA will continue to work with states to address
comments and to implement the rule when final.• Final rule expected in late spring 2011.
49
Transport Rule II
• Transport Rule II will address new 2010 ozone standard and likely include ICI boilers.
• Transport Rule II will be the anchor to Indiana’s control programs for the new 2010 ozone standard.

Greenhouse Gases
52
Endangerment Finding
• Supreme Court – Greenhouse gases (GHGs) are air pollutants covered by the Clean Air Act.
• U.S. EPA must determine if GHGs emitted from new motor vehicles cause or contribute to air pollution or if science is too uncertain to make a reasoned decision.
• U.S. EPA issued two findings:– Endangerment Finding.– Cause or Contribute Finding.
• Findings do not impose requirements, but provide a trigger for other regulatory actions.
53
• Final rule published October 30, 2009 (74 FR 56260).• Requires reporting of annual GHG emissions directly to U.S. EPA.• Does not require control of GHG emissions.• Third party verification of emissions data not required.• U.S. EPA estimates around 10,000 facilities are affected:
– 25 source categories.– 5 types of suppliers of fuel and industrial GHGs.– Motor vehicle and engine manufacturers (except light duty sector).
• Emission reporting thresholds of 25,000 metric tons or more of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) per year for most sources.
• Facilities and suppliers to begin collecting data on January 1, 2010.• First emissions report due on March 1, 2011.
GHG Mandatory Reporting Rule
54
• Requires motor vehicle and engine manufacturers to begin reporting carbon dioxide for model year 2011 and other GHGs in subsequent model years.
• Facilities subject to the Acid Rain Program required to continue submitting quarterly reports, in addition to providing annual GHG reports.
• Federal rule does not preempt states from regulating or requiring reporting of GHGs.
• No state delegation.• IDEM can access verified emissions data from U.S. EPA.• Sources no longer required to report if they fall below specific emission
thresholds.
GHG Mandatory Reporting Rule (continued)
55
• Final rule published on June 3, 2010 (75 FR 31514).
• Sets thresholds for GHG emissions under PSD and Title V for new and existing industrial facilities.
– “Tailors” the PSD and Title V requirements to limit number of facilities required to obtain PSD and Title V permits for GHGs.
• Close to 70% of GHG emissions from stationary sources nationally will be subject to this rule (e.g. power plants, refineries, cement production).
– Establishes tiered schedule:
• Largest sources with the most CAA permitting experience first.
• Adds large sources of GHGs not previously covered for other pollutants.
– Emissions from small farms, restaurants, and all but very large commercial facilities not covered at this time.
Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) and Title V GHG Tailoring Rule
56
• Existing CAA permitting program emissions thresholds of 100 and 250 tons per year (tpy) not feasible for GHGs as they are emitted in much higher volumes.
• Existing thresholds would take effect automatically for GHGs on January 2, 2011 without the tailoring rule resulting in a dramatic increase in number of required PSD and Title V permits.
Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) and Title V GHG Tailoring Rule (continued)
57
• Covered Pollutants:– Carbon Dioxide– Methane– Nitrous Oxide– Hydrofluorocarbons– Perfluorocarbons– Sulfur Hexafluroride
• Carbon dioxide equivalents (CO2e) used to address differences in global warming potentials for each GHG.
Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) and Title V GHG Tailoring Rule (continued)
58
• Implementation:– January 2, 2011 – June 30, 2011:
• Only applies to new construction or modification projects currently subject to the PSD or Title V permitting programs.
• Increase of net GHG emissions by at least 75,000 tpy CO2e, requires BACT for GHG emissions.
• No sources become subject solely due to GHG emissions.
Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) and Title V GHG Tailoring Rule (continued)
59
• Implementation:– July 1, 2011 – June 30, 2013
• Applies to new construction projects that emit GHG emissions of at least 100,000 tpy CO2e even if not subject to PSD for another pollutant.
• Modifications at existing facilities that increase GHG emissions by at least 75,000 tpy CO2e even if no other pollutant significantly increases.
• Sources emitting at least 100,000 tpy CO2e subject to Title V.
• Nationally, about 550 new Title V sources due to GHGs (mostly large solid waste landfills, coal mines, oil and gas production, and large industrial sources) and about 900 additional PSD permit actions from increases in GHG emissions.
Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) and Title V GHG Tailoring Rule (continued)
60
• Implementation:– January 2011 – July 1, 2012
• U.S. EPA plans to initiate another rulemaking on additional steps for phasing in GHG permitting and streamlining future GHG permitting.
• No permits for sources with less than 50,000 tpy CO2e emissions until at least April 30, 2016.
• U.S. EPA will complete study on remaining GHG permitting burdens if applied to small sources by April 30, 2015.
• U.S. EPA working on additional information and guidance in 2010.
Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) and Title V GHG Tailoring Rule (continued)
61
• U.S. EPA is delaying final action on issuing limited approvals for SIP-approved PSD and Title V programs until it better understands how states plan to implement tailoring rule.
• U.S. EPA requested states submit information by August 2, 2010, to address the following:– Will State apply the meaning of term “subject to regulation” for both
PSD and Title V?– If yes, will State use regulatory or legislative process?– If revising statutes or rules, what is estimated schedule?
• Indiana submitted information on July 23, 2010.– Intend to implement GHG tailoring approach through interpretation
of the meaning of “subject to regulation.”
State Implementation Plan Considerations
62
• Indiana’s PSD and Title V rules must be revised for consistency with GHG applicability thresholds and definitions in final federal rule.– Current permitting thresholds are 100 and 250 tons.– Any GHG emissions increase is significant under current rules and
subject to more stringent permitting requirements• Expedited rulemaking to address federal tailoring approach.
– Section 8 Notice published – mid-August 2010.– 30-day comment period end date – mid-September 2010.– Final rule adopted – November 2010.– Rule effective date – March 2011.– Emergency rule as interim measure may be considered.
Tailoring Indiana’s Rules
63
• Conducting detailed analysis of permitting rules to determine if additional revisions and clarifications are necessary.– Emissions Reporting requirements in 326 IAC 2-6.– Permitting Fees for GHGs.– Permit Applicability issues.
• Rulemaking to address outcomes from a refined evaluation will be initiated in early 2011.
