82. AQ-2017-007-RULE 322 (POWER PLANT OPERATIONS) Set a public hearing, as required by Arizona Revised Statutes (A.R.S.) § 49-479(b), for June 23, 2021, at 9:30 a.m. to solicit comments on the proposed revision of Maricopa County Air Pollution Control Regulation III - Rule 322 (Power Plant Operations) and the associated proposed revision to the Arizona State Implementation Plan (SIP). Following the public hearing, the Board is requested to adopt the proposed revisions to the rule and to approve submission of the revised rule as a revision to the Arizona SIP. Rule 322 limits emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO), sulfur oxides ( SOx ), and particulate matter (PM) from stationary fossil-fuel-fired electric utility gas turbines, stationary fossil-fuel-fired electric utility steam generating units or cogeneration steam generating units and limits particulate matter (PM) emissions from cooling towers associated with this equipment. The Maricopa County Air Quality Department (MCAQD) is proposing to revise Rule 322 to address rule deficiencies identified by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The proposed revisions are required to secure the rule’s approval as part of the Arizona State Implementation Plan under the federal Clean Air Act. The MCAQD is also proposing revisions to address rule recommendations provided by the EPA, incorporate revisions recommended by stakeholders, and make other revisions to improve and clarify the rule. Permit fees are not changing due to this action. (C-85-21-046-X-00)
