EPA is proposing two limits for fossil fuel-fired utility boilers and IGCC units, depending on the compliance period that best suits the unit. These limits require capture of only a portion of the CO2 from the new unit. These proposed limits are:
•1,100 lb CO2/MWh gross over a 12-operating month period or•1,000 – 1,050 lb CO2/MWh gross over a 7-year period
![Page 37: Greenhouse Gas Law and Climate Change: The Clean Air Act 2014](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061103/54112d048d7f728e7c8b457a/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
EPA is proposing two standards for natural gas-fired stationary combustion units, depending on size. The proposed limits are based on the performance of modern natural gas combined cycle (NGCC) units. These proposed limits are:
•1,000 lb CO2/MWh gross for larger units (> 850 mmBtu/hr)•1,100 lb CO2/MWh gross for smaller units (< 850 mmBtu/hr)

“Whether EPA permissibly determined that its regulation of greenhouse gas emissions from new motor vehicles triggered permitting requirements under the Clean Air Act for stationary sources that emit greenhouse gases.”
