WAC 173-407-010. Policy and purpose of Part I

(1) Chapter 80.70 RCW requires mitigation of CO 2 emissions from all new and certain modified fossil-fueled thermal electric generating facilities with station-generating capability of more than 25 megawatts of electricity (MWe). (2) A fossil-fueled thermal electric generating facility is not subject to the requirements of chapter 173-401 WAC solely due to its emissions of CO 2 . (a) Emissions of other regulated air pollutants must trigger the requirements of chapter 173-401 WAC. (b) For a fossil-fueled thermal electric generating facility subject to chapter 173-401 WAC, the CO 2 mitigation requirements are an applicable requirement under that regulation. (3) A fossil-fueled thermal electric generating facility not subject to the requirements of chapter 173-401 WAC is subject to the requirements of the registration program in chapter 173-400 WAC.
