quality standard.
(A) Applicability.
This Rule applies only to new major stationary sources or major modifications at existing major
stationary sources that will be located in an area designated in 40 CFR 81.355 as attainment,
attainment/unclassifiable, unclassifiable/attainment or unclassifiable if the emissions from the
major stationary source or major modification would exceed the following significance levels at
any locality that does not meet the national ambient air quality standard: Averaging Time (Hours)

(B) A proposed major source or major modification subject to Rule 210C(A) shall reduce the
impact of its emissions upon air quality by obtaining sufficient emission reductions to, at a
minimum, compensate for its adverse ambient impact where the major source or major
modification would otherwise cause or contribute to a violation of any national ambient air
quality standard. In the absence of such emission reductions, the DNER shall deny the proposed
construction.
(C) The requirements of Rule 210C(B) shall not apply to a major stationary source or major
modification with respect to a particular pollutant if the owner or operator demonstrates that,
as to that pollutant, the source or modification is located in an area designated as non-attainment
pursuant to section 107 of the Clean Air Act.
