A. Major stationary sources are subject to the provisions of this Chapter for the purpose of utilizing emission reductions as offsets in accordance with LAC 33:III.504. Minor stationary sources located in nonattainment areas may submit ERC applications for purposes of banking, provided the source was operating under an air permit and submitted emissions inventories meeting the reporting requirements of LAC 33:III.919 during the baseline period. Sources located in EPA-designated attainment areas may not participate in the emissions banking program, except as specified in Subsection C of this Section. B. Notwithstanding Subsection A of this Section, sources located in the parishes of Ascension, East Baton Rouge, Iberville, Livingston, and West Baton Rouge may participate in the emissions banking program for purposes of securing offsets where required by LAC 33:III.504.M. C. The owner or operator of a stationary source located in an EPA-designated attainment area, but which is not in compliance with a new or revised national ambient air quality standard, may apply to bank reductions in emissions of the noncompliant pollutant(s) realized on or after promulgation of the new or revised standard.

Sources for which emission reduction credits may be created and banked include the following source types: 1. stationary point sources; 2. on-road mobile sources, including cars, trucks, and motorcycles; 3. marine vessels; 4. locomotives; and 5. nonroad engines as defined in LAC 33:III.502.A.
