Major Stationary Source

Section 204.510  Major Stationary Source a)         "Major stationary source" means: 1)         Any of the following stationary sources of air pollutants that emits, or has the potential to emit, 100 tpy or more of any regulated NSR pollutant: A)        Fossil fuel-fired steam electric plants of more than 250 million Btu per hour heat input; B)        Coal cleaning plants (with thermal dryers); C)        Kraft pulp mills; D)        Portland cement plants; E)        Primary zinc smelters; F)         Iron and steel mill plants; G)        Primary aluminum ore reduction plants (with thermal dryers); H)        Primary copper smelters; I)         Municipal incinerators capable of charging more than 50 tons of refuse per day; J)         Hydrofluoric, sulfuric, and nitric acid plants; K)        Petroleum refineries; L)        Lime plants; M)       Phosphate rock processing plants; N)        Coke oven batteries; O)        Sulfur recovery plants; P)         Carbon black plants (furnace process); Q)        Primary lead smelters; R)        Fuel conversion plants; S)         Sintering plants; T)         Secondary metal production plants; U)        Chemical process plants (which does not include ethanol production facilities that produce ethanol by natural fermentation included in NAICS Codes 325193 or 312140); V)        Fossil-fuel boilers (or combinations thereof) totaling more than 250 million Btu per hour heat input; W)       Petroleum storage and transfer units with a total storage capacity exceeding 300,000 barrels; X)        Taconite ore processing plants; Y)        Glass fiber processing plants; and Z)        Charcoal production plants; 2)         Notwithstanding the stationary source size specified in subsection (a)(1), any stationary source that emits, or has the potential to emit, 250 tpy or more of a regulated NSR pollutant (except GHGs as defined in Section 204.430); or 3)         Any physical change that would occur at a stationary source not otherwise qualifying under this Section as a major stationary source, if the changes would constitute a major stationary source. b)         A major source that is major for VOM or NO X shall be considered major for ozone. c)         The fugitive emissions of a stationary source shall not be included in determining for any of the purposes of this Part whether it is a major stationary source, unless the source belongs to one of the following categories of stationary sources: 1)         Coal cleaning plants (with thermal dryers); 2)         Kraft pulp mills; 3)         Portland cement plants; 4)         Primary zinc smelters; 5)         Iron and steel mills; 6)         Primary aluminum ore reduction plants; 7)         Primary copper smelters; 8)         Municipal incinerators capable of charging more than 50 tons of refuse per day; 9)         Hydrofluoric, sulfuric, or nitric acid plants; 10)        Petroleum refineries; 11)        Lime plants; 12)        Phosphate rock processing plants; 13)        Coke oven batteries; 14)        Sulfur recovery plants; 15)        Carbon black plants (furnace process); 16)        Primary lead smelters; 17)        Fuel conversion plants; 18)        Sintering plants; 19)        Secondary metal production plants; 20)        Chemical process plants.  Chemical processing plant shall not include ethanol production facilities that produce ethanol by natural fermentation included in NAICS Codes 325193 or 312140; 21)        Fossil-fuel boilers (or combination thereof) totaling more than 250 million Btu per hour heat input; 22)        Petroleum storage and transfer units with a total storage capacity exceeding 300,000 barrels; 23)        Taconite ore processing plants; 24)        Glass fiber processing plants; 25)        Charcoal production plants; 26)        Fossil fuel-fired steam electric plants of more than 250 million Btu per hour heat input; and 27)        Any other stationary source category that, as of August 7, 1980, is being regulated under section 111 or 112 of the CAA.
