Agenda for today (and SBA comments that are referenced)




<<SBA Comments _DRAFT FINAL RICE SI RULE_ August 4 2010.doc>>    I’m
suggesting this for the agenda for 2 PM


I.      Cost/Ton   4 SRB Engines   Area Sources  500 or 750 or 1000 HP
Cutoff?


                  (SBA Comment III)  Previous cutoff was $34,000/ton
                  (500 HP), should EPA raise this to $93,000/ton?


                  July 27 draft memo says $62,000/ton was excessive.  At
                  750 HP, cost/ton is now $68,000.


II.     Cost/Ton  4SRB  Major Sources  -  300-500 HP – Regulate with or
without NSCR?


                  (SBA Comment IV)  Cost/Ton now $62,000 (500 HP)
                  $92,000 (300 HP).


                  Cost/Ton  4SLB Area Sources -   500 or 750 or 100 HP
                  Cutoff?


                  (SBA Comment II – last paragraph) Should the cutoff
                  remain $20,000/ton?  (now 750 HP).


III.    4 SLB MACT Floor – 300-500 HP – Should it be set with controlled
or uncontrolled engines?


                        What does the Bricks decision require a change
                        to the setting of the floor?


                        How does this satisfy the “logical outgrowth”
                        test?
                         (SBA Comment II)





IV.     4SRB  MACT Floor -  100-300 HP - 10.3  ppm


                  99% Does not reflect variability, particularly for
                  engines under lower loads


                  99% UPL should be adjusted to reflect data, or adjust
                  data to reflect additional tests with lower loads.


                        (SBA Comment V)


V.      Limited Use Engines


                  (SBA Comment VIII)


                  Other Interagency Comments/Issues Not Addressed above:


                  Additional Working Comments:


                  Cost of Control  (page 1)


                  Annual Testing Costs (page 2) – Did EPA really propose
                  CPMS for area sources?  Not in proposed Table 5.


                  Working Comments:


                  Irrigation Engines (page 2)


                  Military Engines (page 3) if DOD on call


                  Rural Area Sources (if desired) page 4


                  Another Issue – Post – Call - Catalyst
                  Replacement/Testing OECA Protocol(See attached file:
                  SBA Comments _DRAFT FINAL RICE SI RULE_ August 4
                  2010.doc)
