New Sources. The provisions of this rule apply to the owner or operator of any source
listed herein, the construction or modification of which is commenced after the date of adoption
of specific emission limitations applicable to such source.
A.
Kraft Pulping Mills. All sources shall minimize gaseous and particulate emission by use
of modern equipment, devices, maintenance, and operating practices in accordance with
best current technology. In no case shall emissions exceed the limits set forth in any
applicable Federal Standard of Performance for New Stationary Sources
B.
Other Limitations. The Mississippi Pollution Control Permit Board, in accordance with
Title 11, Part 2, Chapter 2, may require more stringent emission limitations which it
deems necessary to meet applicable national primary and secondary ambient air quality
standards, necessary to insure that ambient air pollution concentrations do not exceed
ambient air increments or violate other requirements under Federal Prevention of
Significant Deterioration (PSD) regulations promulgated by the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency as of August 23, 1989, pursuant to Section 160 through 169 of the
Federal Clean Air Act as amended, or necessary to meet other Federal law or regulations
enacted or promulgated subsequent to this regulation.
C.
New Source Performance Standards. The Federal New Source Performance Standards are
those duly promulgated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in (or to be printed
in) 40 C.F.R. Part 60, pursuant to Section 111 of the Federal Clean Air Act, as amended,
and Consolidated Federal Air Rule provisions duly promulgated by the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency in (or to be printed in) 40 C.F.R Part 65. All such
regulations promulgated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency as of February 2,
2018, are incorporated herein and adopted by reference by the Commission as official
regulations of the State of Mississippi and shall hereafter be enforceable as such (except
the word “Administrator” in said standards and general implementing regulations shall be
replaced by the words “Executive Director” and the word “Agency” shall be replaced by

Infectious waste incinerators which incinerate only those wastes generated on-site
and are installed after December 9, 1993, shall comply with the following:

Daily records shall be kept of the times of operation, quantity of wastes
incinerated and the temperature of the secondary chamber which
temperature shall be monitored continuously. Records shall be maintained
on hand for at least two (2) years.
(b)
Only wastes generated on-site may be incinerated. Disposal of wastes from

A manifest system, including a detailed description of the waste collection

Notwithstanding the requirements of Rule1.6.D(2)(a) and Rule 1.12, the

Chapter 2, establish more stringent requirements for emissions, operating
parameters, monitoring, and recordkeeping subject to the provisions of
