A
notice
of
an
extension
of
the
firm
power
and
firm
peaking

rates
was
published
in
the
Federal
Register
on

firm

rates
under
Rate
Order
No.
WAPA
 
90.

Discussion
The
existing
P
 
SMBP
 
ED
rate
is
$
3.20/
kilowattmonth
for
capacity
and
8.32
mills/
kilowatthour
for
energy.
The
existing
rates
are
sufficient
to
recover
project
expenses,
including
interest
and
capital
requirements
through
September
30,
2003.
Increased
revenue
from
good
hydrologic
conditions
and
effective
cost
containment
efforts
have
resulted
in
lower
operation
and
maintenance
expenses
over
the
cost­
evaluation
period.
For
the
Pick­
Sloan
Missouri
Basin
Program,
the
rate
setting
study
projected
the
deficit
associated
with
the
drought
starting
in
1989
to
peak
at
$
178
million
in
fiscal
year
(
FY)
1994
and
to
be
repaid
in
FY
2002.
The
deficit
actually
peaked
at
$
171
million
in
FY
1993
and
was
totally
repaid,
with
interest,
in
FY
1997.
The
total
revenue
requirement
of
$
135.2
million
is
sufficient
to
cover
the
expenses
and
capital
requirements
through
September
30,
2003.
In
accordance
with
10
CFR
part
903.23(

This
is
a
request
for
extension
of
a
currently
approved
collection.
Abstract:
To
receive
a
variance
from
the
hazardous
waste
land
disposal
prohibitions,
owner/
operators
of
hazardous
waste
storage
or
disposal
facilities
may
petition
the
Environmental
Protection
Agency
to
allow
land
disposal
of
a
specific
restricted
waste
at
a
specific
site.
The
EPA
Regional
Offices
will
review
the
petitions
and
determine
if
they
successfully
demonstrate
``
no
migration.''
The
applicant
must
demonstrate
that
hazardous
wastes
can
be
managed
safely
in
a
particular
land
disposal
unit,
so
that
``
no
migration''
of
any
hazardous
constituents
occurs
from
the
unit
for
as
long
as
the
waste
remains
hazardous.
If
EPA
grants
the
variance,
the
waste
is
no
longer
prohibited
from
land
disposal
in
that
particular
unit.
If
the
owner/
operator
fails
to
make
this
demonstration,
or
chooses
not
to
petition
for
the
variance,
best
demonstrated
available
technology
(
BDAT)
requirements
of
40
CFR
268.40
must
be
met
before
the
hazardous
wastes
are
placed
in
a
land
disposal
unit.
An
agency
may
not
conduct
or
sponsor,
and
a
person
is
not
required
to
respond
to,
a
collection
of
information
unless
it
displays
a
currently
valid
OMB
control
number.
The
OMB
control
numbers
for
EPA's
regulations
are
listed
in
40
CFR

9
and
48

Retrofit/
Rebuild
Requirements
for
1993
and
Earlier
Model
Year
Urban
Buses;
Certification
of
Equipment
AGENCY:
Environmental
Protection
Agency
(
EPA).
ACTION:
Notice
of
EPA
certification
of
equipment
provided
by
Turbodyne
Systems,
Inc.

SUMMARY:
Today's
Federal
Register
document
announces
EPA's
decision
to
certify
equipment
to
the
0.10
g/
bhp­
hr
standard
for
the
Urban
Bus
Retrofit/
Rebuild
Program.
The
equipment
is
provided
by
Turbodyne
Systems,
Inc.
(
Turbodyne).
Turbodyne
submitted
to
EPA
a
notification
of
intent
to
certify
equipment,
signed
November
14,
1997,
pursuant
to
the
program
regulations
at
40
CFR
part
85,
subpart
O.
On
April
19,
1999,
EPA
published
a
document
in
the
Federal
Register
that
the
Turbodyne
notification
had
been
received
and
made
the
notification
available
for
public
review
and
comment
for
a
period
of
45
days
(
64
FR
19151).
EPA
has
completed
its
review
and
the
Director
of
the
Certification
&
Compliance
Division
has
determined
that
it
meets
all
requirements
for
certification.
Accordingly,
EPA
approves
the
certification
of
this
equipment
effective
July
17,
2000.
The
equipment
consists
of
the
base
engine
components
used
on
the
25%
reduction
retrofit/
rebuild
kit
certified
by
the
Detroit
Diesel
Corporation
(
DDC),
components
from
the
25%
retrofit
catalyst
kit
certified
by
Engine
Control
Systems,
Ltd.
(
ECS)
and
a
TurboPac
supercharger
system
supplied
by
Turbodyne
that
supplies
additional
air
for
combustion
during
engine
acceleration.
This
Turbodyne
kit
is
identical
to
the
kit
that
was
certified
by
the
Detroit
Diesel
Corporation
on
May
14,
1998
(
63
FR
26798)
and
is
applicable
to
the
same
models,
and
model
year
engines
as
the
DDC
kit.
The
kit
is
applicable
to
6V92TA
urban
bus
engine
models
made
by
Detroit
Diesel
Corporation
(
DDC)
from
model
years
1979
to
1989
and
equipped
with
mechanical
unit
injectors
(
MUI),
and
may
be
used
immediately
by
transit
operators
in
compliance
with
program
requirements.
The
kit
is
available
in
three
horsepower
levels
(
253,
277,
and
294).
EPA
has
determined
that
this
Turbodyne
kit
complies
with
the
0.10
gram
per
brake
horsepower­
hour
(
g/
bhphr
particulate
matter
(
PM)
standard
for
the
applicable
engines.
EPA
has
not
determined
that
Turbodyne's
notification
complies
with
the
life
cycle
cost
requirements
of
the
program
regulations
because
no
life
cycle
costs
were
supplied
with
the
application.
Today's
Federal
Register
document
does
not
trigger
any
additional
program
requirements
for
transit
operators.
The
0.10
g/
bhp­
hr
PM
level
has
already
been
triggered
for
all
engines
covered
by
this
notification.
The
notification

intent

it,

SUPPLEMENTARY
INFORMATION:

I.
Description
of
the
Certified
Kit
The
certified
kit
described
in
today's
Federal
Register
document,
is
provided
by
Turbodyne.
It
is
certified
to
the
0.10
g/
bhp­
hr
standard.
It
is
not
required
to
comply
with
the
applicable
life
cycle
cost
requirements
of
the
program.
No
cost
data
were
provided
in
the
notification.
The
certification
described
in
today's
document
applies
to
1979
though
1989
model
year
DDC
6V92TA
engines
that
are
equipped
with
mechanical
unit
injectors
(
MUI)
and
certified
to
federal
emissions
standards.
It
does
not
apply
to
engines
certified
to
California
emissions
standards.
The
impact
of
this
decision
on
transit
operators
is
discussed
in
more
detail
in
the
``
Transit
Operator
Requirements''
section
below.
The
kit,
described
further
below,
consists
of
base
engine
components
used
on
the
25%
reduction
kit
certified
by
DDC
earlier,
a
catalytic
exhaust
muffler
supplied
by
Engine
Control
Systems,
Ltd.
(
ECS),
and
a
TurboPac
supercharger
system
supplied
by
Turbodyne
Systems,
Inc.
that
supplies
additional
combustion
air
during
acceleration.
The
kit
is
available
in
three
horsepower
(
hp)
ratings
(
253,
277,
and
294
hp).
The
kit
being
certified
by
Turbodyne
is
identical
to
the
kit
certified
by
DDC
earlier
(
63
FR
26798).
For
retrofit
with
the
Turbodyne
kit,
an
engine
is
rebuilt
in
accordance
with
standard
DDC
rebuild
procedures,
using
specified
engine
components.
This
component
set
essentially
includes
the
equipment
certified
by
EPA
to
provide
a
25%
particulate
reduction
on
October
2,
1995,
at
60
FR
51472.
These
components
are
provided
in
two
separate
sets
of
parts.
The
first
set
of
components
is
comprised
of
newly
manufactured
parts,
including
a
gasket
kit,
air
inlet
hose,
cylinder
kits
(
piston
assemblies
and
cylinder
liners)
a
bypass
valve
and
a
truck
type
throttle
delay.
The
second
set
of
components
includes
ReliabiltTM
remanufactured
parts,
including
the
fuel
injectors,
camshafts,
blower
assembly,
turbocharger,
and
head
assemblies.
Kit
usage
is
based
on
engine
rotation
(
righthand
(
RH)
or
lefthand
(
LH)),
engine
orientation,
right
bank
cam
gear
mounting
(
bolt
or
nut),
and
engine
power
output
based
on
injector
size.
The
only
difference
from
the
previously
certified
equipment
is
the
inclusion
of
a
truck­
style
throttle
delay,
adjustment
of
the
throttle
delay
and
injector
timing
settings
to
improve
driveability.
Additionally,
the
cylinder
kit
components
have
been
modified
to
improve
durability.
