APPEAL
OF CAAPP PERMIT
NOW COMES Petitioner, Ameren Energy Generating Company, Electric Energy, Inc.
and Midwest Electric Power, Inc. ("Petitioner" or "Midwest"), pursuant to Section 40.2
of the
Illinois Environmental Protection Act ("Act") (415 ILCS 5/40.2) and
35 Ill.Adm.Code § 105.300
et seq.,
and requests a hearing before the Board to contest certain conditions contained in the
Clean Air Act Permit Program ("CAAPP") renewal permit' (the "permit") issued on March 19,
2009, pursuant to Section 39.5
of the Act (415 ILCS 5/39.5) and attached hereto as Exhibit 1. 35
Ill.Adm.Code §§ 105.210(a) and (b).
See
Exhibit 1. Pursuant to Section 40.2(a) of the Act and
35 Ill.Adm.Code
§§ 105.302(e) and 101.300(c), this Petition is timely filed with the Board.
In support of its Petition to appeal Conditions 5.6.2, 5.7.2, 5.9.2, 7.l.3(t), 7.1.3(t)(iv),
7.1.5(a)(iii)(A), 7.1.8(a)(iii), 7.1.9(1), 7.1.9(m), 7.1.10(e) and 7.1.12(e) and its request
to stay
these Conditions, Petitioner states as follows:
I
Application No. 01050058; J.D. No. 127899AAA

I. BACKGROUND
(35 1ll.Adm.Code § l05.304(a»
I.
The Midwest Electric Power, Inc. station, Illinois Environmental Protection
Agency ("Agency") I.D. No. 127899AAA, is
an electric generating station owned and operated
by Midwest Electric Power, Inc. Midwest Electric Power, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary
of
Electric Energy, Inc. Midwest operates the station as a peaking station, generating electric
power when sufficient electric power is not available from other sources. The Midwest electrical
generating units ("EGUs") are combustion turbines and subject to the CAAPP (415 ILCS
5/39.5). The Midwest station is located at 2200 Portland Road, Joppa, Massac County, Illinois
62953. Massac County is attainment for all National Ambient Air Quality Standards. The
Agency issued the permit on March
19,2009.
II.
REQUEST
FQR PARTIAL
STAY
OF THE PERMIT
2.
Historically, the Board has granted partial stays in permit appeals where a
petitioner has so requested.
See, e.g., Midwest Generation, LLC, Will County Generating Station
v. Illinois Environmental Protection Agency,
PCB 06- I 56 (July 20, 2006) (granted stay of the
effectiveness
of contested conditions of a construction permit);
Dynegy Midwest Generation, Inc.
(Vermilion Power Station)
v. Illinois Environmental Protection Agency,
PCB 06-194 (October
19, 2006) (granted stay
"of the portions of the permit Dynegy contests");
Dynegy Midwest
Generation, Inc. (Havana Power Station)
v. Illinois Environmental Protection Agency,
PCB 07-
115 (October 4, 2007) (same);
Hartford Working Group v. Illinois Environmental Protection
Agency,
PCB 05-74 (November 18, 2004) (granted stay of the effectiveness of Special Condition
2.0
of an air construction permit);
Community Landfill Company and City of Morris v. Illinois
Environmental Protection Agency,
PCB 01-48 and 01-49 (Consolidated) (October 19, 2000)
(granted stay
of effectiveness of challenged conditions for two permits of two parcels of the
-2-

landfill);
Allied Tube
&
Conduit Corp.
v.
Illinois Environmental Protection Agency,
PCB 96-108
(December 7, 1995) (granted stay of the effectiveness of Conditions 4(a), 5(a), and 7(a) of an air
pennit).
3.
Petitioner requests in this instance that the Board exercIse its inherent
discretionary authority
to grant a partial stay of the CAAPP pennit, staying only those conditions
or portions
of conditions indicated in Exhibit 2,
i.e.,
Conditions 5.6.2, 5.7.2, 5.9.2, 7.1.3(f),
7.1.3(f)(iv), 7.1.5(a)(iii)(A), 7.1.8(a)(iii), 7.1.9(1), 7.1.9(m), 7.1.10(e), and 7.1.12(e) during the
pendency
of this appeal.
III. ISSUES ON APPEAL
(35 II1.Adm.Code §§ 105.304(.) (2)-(4))
Following are the issues that Midwest appeals and seeks a stay for, presented
sequentially.
4.
Condition 5.6.2 Emissions of Hazardous Air Pollutants
Petitioner objects to this Condition because it is arbitrary, capricious, and unauthorized
by law to the extent it imposes an emission limit to ensure that the source is not a major source of
hazardous air pollutant emissions. As set forth in Condition 5.1.1, the source is not a major
source for hazardous air pollutant emissions and the pennit was not issued based on the source
being a major source for hazardous air pollutant emissions. This condition is, therefore, in
excess
of the Agency's authority, unauthorized by law, arbitrary and capricious, and
unreasonable. Accordingly, this Condition should be deleted and stayed during the pendency of
this appeal.
5.
Condition 5.7.2 HAP Testing to Verify Minor Source Status
Petitioner objects
to this Condition because it is unnecessary given the fuel and emission
limitations contained within the pennit and therefore it is arbitrary, capricious, unauthorized by
-3-

law and unreasonable. This Condition requires the source to verify compliance with Condition
5.6.2, which for the reasons set forth above should be deleted. Accordingly, this Condition
should be deleted and stayed during the pendency
of this appeal.
6.
Condition 5.9.2 Records for HAP Emissions
Petitioner objects to this Condition because is it arbitrary, capricious, unauthorized by
law and unreasonable. This Condition requires the source
to record emissions to demonstrate
compliance with Condition 5.6.2, which for the reasons set forth above should be deleted.
Accordingly, this Condition should be deleted and stayed during the pendency
of this appeal.
7.
Condition 7.1.3(f) Startup Provisions
Petitioner objects to this Condition because it
is unauthorized by law, arbitrary and
capricious. This Condition incorrectly fails
to incorporate certain limitations or provisions from
the current CAAPP permit, which are applicable requirements. Accordingly, this provision
should be modified and stayed during the pendency
of this appeal.
8.
Condition 7.1.3(3)(f)(iv) Startup Provisions
Petitioner objects to this Condition because it is arbitrary, capricious, unauthorized by
law and unreasonable.
This Condition requires the source to fulfill the record keeping
requirements
of Condition 7.1.10(e), which for the reasons set forth below should be deleted.
Accordingly, this Condition should be modified and stayed during the pendency
of this appeal.
9.
Condition 7. 1. 5 (a)(iii)(A) Control Requirements and Work Practices
Petitioner objects
to this Condition because it unreasonable, arbitrary and capricious. The
permit contains a quarterly inspection requirement
of emission related components that is not
reflective
of actual operating conditions. The units do not operate on a regular schedule, thus the
imposed schedule may require inspections on a non-operating unit. Therefore, this Condition
is
-4-
Electronic Filing - Received, Clerk's Office, April 23, 2009
* * * * * PCB 2009-094 * * * *

arbitrary and capricious, unauthorized by law and unreasonable. Accordingly, this Condition
should be modified and stayed during the pendency
of this appeal.
10.
Condition 7.1.8(a)(iii) Monitoring Requirements
Petitioner objects to this Condition because it is unauthorized by law, unreasonable,
redundant, arbitrary and capricious. The Agency may not require a source to operate a unit when
the unit is otherwise not operating in order
to assess compliance. Accordingly, this Condition
should be modified and stayed during the pendency
of this appeal.
II.
Condition 7.1.9(1) Recordkeeping Requirements -Shutdowns
Petitioner objects
to this Condition because it is unauthorized by law, unreasonable,
redundant, arbitrary and capricious. The source maintains records
of the date, time and duration
of the shutdown. The additional records required by this Condition are redundant and not
necessary to ensure compliance with applicable requirements. Accordingly, this Condition
should be modified and stayed during the pendency
of this appeal.
12.
Condition 7.1.9(m) Recordkeeping Requirements - Start Ups
Petitioner objects
to this Condition because it is unauthorized by law, unreasonable,
vague, redundant, arbitrary and capricious
to the extent it requires the source to maintain records
that
go beyond those necessary to ensure compliance with applicable requirements. This
Condition is not limited to maintaining records for startups resulting in an opacity exceedance
and requires records that are not necessary
to ensure compliance with applicable requirements.
The requirement that the unit achieve "normal operation" within thirty minutes does not reflect
current operating conditions.
It
is unclear what information must be included when describing
the startup and there
is no basis for requiring the source to provide the Agency with a reason for
the startup. The requirement to maintain a maintenance and repair log is duplicative of the
-5-

requirements in Condition 7.1.9( c). Furthermore, records related to exceedances of limitations
during startups should not be required unless conditions exist which could result in a deviation
from the applicable requirements.
Therefore, this Condition is unauthorized by law,
unreasonable, vague, redundant, arbitrary and capricious. Accordingly, this Condition should be
modified and stayed during the pendency
of this appeal.
13.
Condition 7.1.1 O( e) Reporting Startups
Petitioner objects
to this Condition because it is unauthorized by law, redundant,
unreasonable, arbitrary and capricious. Several other Conditions, including 7.1.1O(a) and
7.1.1O(b) require the necessary reporting to ensure compliance with applicable requirements.
The information required by this Condition is not necessary
to ensure compliance with
applicable requirements.
Therefore, it this Condition is unauthorized by law, redundant,
unreasonable, arbitrary and capricious. Accordingly, this Condition should be deleted and stayed
during the pendency
of this appeal.
14.
Condition 7.1.12(e) Compliance Procedures
Petitioner objects to this Condition because it is unauthorized by law, unreasonable,
redundant, arbitrary and capricious
to the extent it conflicts with the compliance obligations in
the original construction permit and Condition 7.1.6(d). According, this Condition should be
modified and stayed during the pendency
of this appeal.
15.
The Company has met with the Agency and believes the majority, if not all, of the
above issues and conditions can be resolved. However, any such resolution could not occur
within the time frame required for appeal.
So that the parties have sufficient time to resolve
issues and conditions in dispute, including
if necessary the filing of an amended CAAPP permit
application, Ameren requests that the conditions set forth herein be stayed.

5.9.2, 7.1.3(f), 7.1.3(f)(iv), 7.1.5(a)(iii)(A), 7.1.8(a)(iii), 7.1.9(i), 7.1.9(1), 7.1.9(m), 7.1.10(e),
and 7.1.12(e)
of the CAAPP renewal permit issued March 19, 2009, for Midwest and requests
that the Board order the Agency
to delete or modify the conditions as set forth above.

pendency
of this appeal as set forth in Exhibit 2. Midwest will extend its current practices under
the CAAPP permit replaced
by this permit issued March 19, 2009, where the Board stays
Conditions appealed herein and will,
of course, comply with all requirements of the Board's
regulations applicable to Midwest during the pendency
of this appeal.

Startup Provisions
Subject to the following terms and conditions, the
Permittee is authorized to operate the affected turbines in
violation of the applicable standards in Condition 7.1.3(b)
during startup. This authorization is provided pursuant to
35 IAC 201.149, 201.161 and 201.262, as the Permittee has
applied for such authorization in its application,
generally describing the efforts that will be used " ... to
minimize startup emissions, duration of individual starts,
and frequency of startups."
i.
This authorization does not relieve the Permittee
from the continuing obligation to demonstrate that
all reasonable efforts are made to minimize startup
emissions, duration of individual startups and
frequency of startups.
ii.
The Permittee shall conduct startup of the each
affected turbine(s) in accordance with written
procedures prepared by the Permittee and maintained
at the facility, in the control room for the each
affected turbine(s), that are specifically developed
to minimize emissions from startups and that include,
at a minimum, the following measures:
A.
The Permittee shall conduct startup of an
affected turbine in accordance with the
manufacturer's written instructions or other
written instructions prepared by the source
owner or operator and maintained on site.
B.
The Permittee shall take the following measures
to minimize emissions resulting from startups,
the duration of startups, and minimize the
frequency of startups:
I.
Operating in accordance with the
manufacturer's written operating and
startup procedures, including a pre-check
of the unit, or other written procedures
developed and maintained by the source
owner or operator so as to minimize the
duration of startups and the emissions
associated with startups. These
procedures should allow for review of
operating parameters of the unit during
startup, or shutdown as necessary to make
adjustments to reduce or eliminate excess
emissions.
II.
Maintaining units in accordance with
written procedures developed and
maintained by the source owner or
25

operator so as to minimize the duration
of startups and the frequency of
startups. These maintenance practices
shall include maintenance activities
before the unit is started up, when the
unit is in operation, and when the unit
is shut down.
III. The procedures described above shall be
reviewed at least annually to make
necessary adjustments and shall be made
available to the Illinois EPA upon
request.
iv.
The Permittee shall fulfill applicable recordkeeping
and reporting requirements of Condition 7.1.9(m) and
7.1.10(e) .
v.
As provided by 35 lAC 201.265, an authorization in a
permit for excess emissions during startup does not
shield a Permittee from enforcement for any violation
of applicable emission standard(s) that occurs during
startup and only constitutes a prima facie defense to
such an enforcement action provided that the
Permittee has fully complied with all terms and
conditions connected with such authorization.
g.
Malfunction and Breakdown Provisions
Subject to the following terms and conditions, the
Permittee is authorized to continue operation of an
affected turbine in violation of the applicable standards
in Condition 7.1.3(b) and the hourly emission limits in
Condition 7.1.6 in the event of a malfunction or breakdown
of the affected turbines. This authorization is provided
pursuant to 35 IAC 201.149, 201.161 and 201.262, as the
Permittee has applied for such authorization in its
application, generally explaining why such continued
operation would be required to provide essential service or
to prevent risk of injury to personnel or severe damage to
equipment, and describing the measures that will be taken
to minimize emissions from any malfunctions and breakdowns.
This authorization supersedes the general prohibition in
Condition 9.2.3 against continued operation in such
circumstances.
i.
This authorization only allows such continued
operation as necessary to provide essential service
or prevent risk of injury to personnel or severe
damage to equipment and does not extend to continued
operation solely for the economic benefit of the
Permittee.
26

7.1. 4
ii.
Upon occurrence of excess emissions due to
malfunction or breakdown, the Permittee shall as soon
as practical repair the turbine, remove the affected
turbine from service, or undertake other action so
that excess emissions cease.
iii. The Permittee shall fulfill the applicable
recordkeeping and reporting requirements of
Conditions 7.1.9(n) and 7.1.l0(f). For these
purposes, time shall be measured from the start of a
particular incident. The absence of excess emissions
for a short period shall not be considered to end the
incident if excess emissions resume. In such
circumstances, the incident shall be considered to
continue until corrective actions are taken so that
excess emissions cease or the Permittee takes the
affected turbines out of service.
iv.
Following notification to the Illinois EPA of a
malfunction or breakdown with excess emissions, the
Permittee shall comply with all reasonable directives
of the Illinois EPA with respect to such incident,
pursuant to 35 lAC 201.263.
v.
This authorization does not relieve the Permittee
from the continuing obligation to minimize excess
emissions during malfunction or breakdown. As
provided by 35 lAC 201.265, an authorization in a
permit for continued operation with excess emissions
during malfunction and breakdown does not -shield the
Permittee from enforcement for any such violation and
only constitutes a prima facie defense to such an
enforcement action provided that the Permittee has
fully complied with all terms and conditions
connected with such authorization.

The 3-run performance test required by 40 CFR
60.8 must be performed within
±
5 percent at
30, 50, 75, and 90-to-100 percent of peak load
or at four evenly-spaced load points in the
normal operating range of the gas turbine,
including the minimum point in the operating
range and 90-to-100 percent of peak load, or at
the highest achievable load point if 90-to-100
percent of peak load cannot be physically
achieved in practice. If the turbine combusts
both oil and gas as primary or backup fuels,
separate performance testing is required for
each fuel. Notwithstanding these requirements,
performance testing is not required for any
emergency fuel (as defined in 40 CFR 60.331),
pursuant to 40 CFR 60.335 (b) (2) .

performance test required under 40 CFR 60.8 may
be done in the following alternative manner:
Perform a minimum of 9 reference method runs,
with a minimum time per run of 21 minutes, at a
single load level, between 90 and 100 percent
of peak (or the highest physically achievable)
load, pursuant to 40 CFR 60.335 (b) (7) (i) .
Use the test data both to demonstrate
compliance with the applicable NO

emission
limit under 40 CFR 60.332 and to provide the
required reference method data for the RATA of
the CEMS described under 40 CFR 60.334(b) ,
pursuant to 40 CFR 60.335 (b) (7) (ii) .
The requirement to test at three additional
load levels is waived, pursuant to 40 CFR
60.335 (b) (7) (iii) .
If the owner or operator elects under 40 CFR
60.334(f) to monitor combustion parameters or
parameters indicative of proper operation of NO
x
emission controls, the appropriate parameters
shall be continuously monitored and recorded
during each run of the initial performance
test, to establish acceptable operating ranges,
for purposes of the parameter monitoring plan
for the affected unit, as specified in 40.CFR

each time the source owner or operator carries out a
scheduled exercise of the affected turbine.
iii. The source owner or operator shall also conduct
formal observations of operation and opacity of an
affected turbine upon written request by the Illinois
EPA. With the agreement of the Illinois EPA, the
source owner or operator may schedule these
observations to take place during periods when it
would otherwise be operating the affected turbine.
Note: The formal observation required above is not
intended to be a USEPA Test Method 9 opacity test, nor does
the observation require a USEPA Test Method 9 certified
observer. It is intended to be performed by personnel
familiar with the operation of the affected turbine who
would be able to make a determination based from the
observed opacity as to whether or not the affected turbine
was running properly, and subsequently initiate a
corrective action if necessary.
b.
The affected turbine shall comply with the applicable
monitoring requirements of 40 CFR 60.334(h), below.
Monitoring of fuel nitrogen content shall not be required
while the facility does not claim an allowance for fuel-
bound nitrogen. Monitoring for sulfur content in fuel is
not required while natural gas is the only fuel
fired
in
the affected turbine and the requirements of 40 CFR
60.334(h)3(i) or (ii) are met.
Pursuant to 40 CFR 60.334(h), the owner or operator of any
stationary gas turbine subject to the provisions of this
subpart:
Shall monitor the total sulfur content of the fuel being
fired in the turbine, except as provided in 40 CFR
60.335 (h) (3). The sulfur content of the fuel must be
determined using total sulfur methods described in 40 CFR
60.335 (b) (10). Alternatively,
if
the total sulfur content
of the gaseous fuel during the most recent performance test
was less than 0.4 weight percent (4000 ppmw) , ASTM D4084-
82, 94, D5504-01, D6228-98, or Gas Processors Association
Standard 2377-86 (all of which are incorporated by
reference-see 40 CFR 60.17), which measure the major sulfur
compounds may be used, pursuant to 40 CFR 60.334(h) (1); and
Shall
monitor
the nitrogen content of the fuel cornbusted in
the turbine, if the owner or operator claims an allowance
for fuel bound nitrogen (i.e., if an F-value greater than
zero
is
being or will be used by the owner or operator to
calculate STD in 40 CFR 60.332). The nitrogen content of
the fuel shall be determined using methods described
in 40
CFR 60.335(b) (9) or an approved alternative, pursuant to 40

STATEMENT OF BASIS:
In accordance with Section 39.5 (17) (b) of Illinois Environmental Protection
Act and Titles IV and V of the Clean Air Act, the Illinois Environmental
Protection Agency is issuing this Acid Rain Program permit to Midwest
Electric Power, Inc. for its Joppa Plant.

REQUIREMENTS FOR
EACH AFFECTED UNIT:
These units are not entitled to an

Turbines CT01-
to 40 CFR Pare 73.

These units are not subject to a NO

emissions limitation pursuant to 40
CFR Part 76.
PERMIT APPLICATION:
The permit application, which includes S02 allowance
requirements and other standard requirements, is attached and incorporated as
part of this permit. The owners and operators of this source must comply
with the standard requirements and special provisions set forth in the
application
COMMENTS, NOTES AND JUSTIFICATIONS:
This permit contains provisions related
to S02 emissions and requires the owners and operators to holQ S02 allowances
to account for S02 emissions from the affected units. An allowance is a
limited authorization to emit up to one ton of 80
2
during or after a specified
calendar year. Although this plant is not eligible for an allowance allocated
by
USEPA, the owners or operators may obtain S02 allowances to cover emissions
from other sources under a marketable allowance program. The transfer of
6-1
Electronic Filing - Received, Clerk's Office, April 23, 2009
* * * * * PCB 2009-094 * * * *

allowances to and from a unit account does not necessitate a revision to the
unit SO, allocations denoted in this permit (See 40 CFR 72.84).
This permit contains provisions related to NO
x
emissions and requires the
owners and operators to monitor NO
x
emissions from affected units in
accordance with applicable provisions of 40 CFR Part 75. These units are not
subject to a NO
x
emission limitation because USEPA has not adopted such
limitation for combined cycle turbines.
This Acid Rain Program permit does not authorize the construction and operation
of the affected units as such matters are addressed by Titles I and V of the
Clean Air Act. This permit also does not affect the source's responsibility to
meet all other applicable local, state and federal requirements, including 35
IAC Part 225, Subparts C, D, and E.
If you have any questions regarding this permit, please contact John Cashman
at 2171782-2113.

Permittee io authorized t9 sperate the affected turbines in
violatisR af the
a~plicable
standards in Conditisn 7.1.3(b)
during startup. This authorizatisn is prsvided pursuant to
1."£
201.149, 201. 101 and 201.262, as tHe Pe'"ffiittee tao
applied for such authorization in its application,
generally aeserilsing the efforts that ',Jill
Iso
used " ... to
minimize startuI' eHLissioRS, duration of
indi"'~'idual
starts,
and
fre~ueney
of startups."
i.
This authorization does not relieve the Permittee
from the continuing obligation to demonstrate that
all reasonable efforts are made to minimize startup
emissions, duration of individual startups and
frequency of startups.
ii.
The Permittee shall conduct startup of the each
affected turbine(s) in accordance with written
procedures prepared by the Permittee and maintained
at the facility, in the control room for the each
affected turbine(s), that are specifically developed
to minimize emissions from startups and that include,
at a minimum, the following measures:
A.
The Permittee shall conduct startup of an
affected turbine in accordance with the
manufacturer's written instructions or other
written instructions prepared by the source
owner or operator and maintained on site.
B.
The Permittee shall take the following measures
to minimize emissions resulting from startups,
the duration of startups, and minimize the
frequency of startups:
I.
Operating in accordance with the
manufacturer's written operating and
startup procedures/ including a pre-check
of the unit/ or other written procedures
developed and maintained by the source
owner or operator so as to minimize the
duration of startups and the emissions
associated with startups. These
procedures should allow for review of
operating parameters of the unit during
startup, or shutdown as necessary to make
adjustments to reduce or eliminate excess
emissions.
II.
Maintaining units in accordance with
written procedures developed and
maintained by the source owner or
25

operator so as to minimize the duration
of startups and the frequency of
startups. These maintenance practices
shall include maintenance activities
before the unit is started
UPI
when the
unit is in operation
l
and when the unit
is shut down.
III. The procedures described above shall be
reviewed at least annually to make
necessary adjustments and shall be made
available to the Illinois EPA upon
request.
iv.
The Permittee shall fulfill af1p±-:i:-ea-l?le
re~
and reporting requirements of Condition 7.1.9(m) and
7.1.10(e).
v.
As provided by 35 IAC
201.265
1
an authorization in a
permit for excess emissions during startup does not
shield a Permittee from enforcement for any violation
of applicable emission standard(s) that occurs during
startup and only constitutes a prima facie defense to
such an enforcement action provided that the
Permittee has fully complied with all terms and
conditions connected with such authorization.
g.
Malfunction and Breakdown Provisions
Subject to the following terms and conditions
I
the
Permittee is authorized to continue operation of an
affected turbine in violation of the applicable standards
in Condition 7.1.3(b) and the hourly emission limits in
Condition 7.1.6 in the event of a malfunction or breakdown
of the affected turbines. This authorization is provided
pursuant to 35 IAC 201.149, 201.161 and 201.262, as the
Permittee has applied for such authorization in its
application
l
generally explaining why such continued
operation would be required to provide essential service or
to prevent risk of injury to personnel or. severe damage to
equipment
I
and describing the measures that will be taken
to minimize emissions from any malfunctions and breakdowns.
This authorization supersedes the general prohibition in
Condition 9.2.3 against continued operation in such
circumstances.
i.
This authorization only allows such continued
operation as necessary to provide essential service
or prevent risk of injury to personnel or severe
damage to equipment and does not extend to continued
operation solely for the economic benefit of the
Permittee.

7.1.4
ii.
Upon occurrence of excess emissions due to
malfunction or breakdown, the Permittee shall as soon
as practical repair the turbine
t
remove the affected
turbine from service, or undertake other action so
that excess emissions cease.
iii. The Permittee shall fulfill the applicable
recordkeeping and reporting requirements of
Conditions 7.1.9(n) and 7.1.10(f). For these
purposes, time shall be measured from the start of a
particular incident. The absence of excess emissions
for a short period shall not be considered to end the
incident if excess emissions resume. In such
circumstances, the incident shall be considered to
continue until corrective actions are taken so that
excess emissions cease or the Permittee takes the
affected turbines out of service.
iv.
Following notification to the Illinois EPA of a
malfunction or breakdown with excess emissions, the
Permittee shall comply with all reasonable directives
of the Illinois EPA with respect to such incident,
pursuant to 35 IAC 201.263.
v.
This authorization does not relieve the Permittee
from the continuing obligation to minimize excess
emissions during malfunction or breakdown. As
provided by 35 IAC 201.265, an authorization in a
permit for continued operation with excess emissions
during malfunction and breakdown does not shield the
Permittee from enforcement for any such violation and
only constitutes a prima facie defense to such an
enforcement action provided that the Permittee has
fully complied with all terms and conditions
connected with such authorization.

The 3-run performance test required by 40 CFR
60.8 must be performed within
±
5 percent at
30, 50, 75, and 90-to-l00 percent of peak load
or at four evenly-spaced load points in the
normal operating range of the gas turbine,
including the minimum point in the operating
range and 90-to-l00 percent of peak load, or at
the highest achievable load point if 90-to-100
percent of peak load cannot be physically
achieved in practice. If the turbine combusts
both oil and gas as primary or backup fuels,
separate performance testing is required for
each fuel. Notwithstanding these requirements,
performance testing is not required for any
emergency fuel (as defined in 40 CFR 60.331),
pursuant to 40 CFR 60.335(b) (2).
If water or steam injection is used to control
NO

may either be conducted separately (as
described in 40 CFR 60.335(b) (7)) or as part of
the initial performance test of the affected
unit, pursuant to 40 CFR 60.335(b) (6).
Pursuant to 40 CFR 60.335(b) (7), if the owner
or operator elects to install and certify a NO
x
CEMS under 40 CFR 60.334(e), then the initial
performance test required under 40 CFR 60.8 may
be done in the following alternative manner:
Perform a minimum of 9 reference method runs,
with a minimum time per run of 21 minutes, at a
single load level, between 90 and 100 percent
of peak (or the highest physically achievable)
load, pursuant to 40 CFR 60.335(b) (7) (i).
Use the test data both to demonstrate
compliance with the applicable NO
x
emission
limit under 40 CFR 60.332 and to provide the
required reference method data for the RATA of
the CEMS described under 40 CFR 60.334(b)
pursuant to 40 CFR 60.335(b) (7) (ii).
The requirement to test at three additional
load levels is waived, pursuant to 40 CFR
60.335(b) (7) (iii).
If the owner or operator elects under 40 CFR
60.334(f) to monitor combustion parameters or
parameters indicative of proper operation of NO
x
emission controls, the appropriate parameters
shall be continuously monitored and recorded
during each run of the initial performance
test, to establish acceptable operating ranges,
for purposes of the parameter monitoring plan
for the affected unit, as specified in 40 CFR
60.334(g), pursuant to 40 CFR 60.335(b) (8).
Pursuant to 40 CFR 60.335(b) (10), if the owner
or operator is required under 40 CFR
60.334(i) (1) or (3) to periodically determine
the sulfur content of the fuel combusted in the
turbine, a minimum of three fuel samples shall
be collected during the performance test.
Analyze the samples for the total sulfur
content of the fuel using:
For gaseous fuels, ASTM D1072-80, 90
(Reapproved 1994); D3246-81, 92, 96; D4468-85
(Reapproved 2000); or D6667-01 (all of which
are incorporated by reference, see 40 CFR
60.17). The applicable ranges of some ASTM
methods mentioned above are not adequate to
33

measure the levels of sulfur in some fuel
gases. Dilution of samples before analysis
(with verification of the dilution ratio) may
be used, subject to the prior approval of the
Administrator, pursuant to 40 CFR
60.335 (b) (10) (ii).
The fuel analyses required under 40 CFR
60.335(b)
(9)
and (b) (10) may be performed by
the owner or operator, a service contractor
retained by the owner or operator, the fuel
vendor, or any other qualified agency, pursuant
to 40 CFR 60.335(b) (11).
B.
Pursuant to 40 CFR 60.335(c), the owner or
operator may use the following as alternatives
to the reference methods and procedures
specified in this section:
Instead of using the equation in 40 CFR
60.335(b) (1), manufacturers may develop ambient
condition correction factors to adjust the
nitrogen oxides emission level measured by the
performance test as provided in 40 CFR 60.8 to
ISO standard day conditions, pursuant to 40 CFR
60.335(c)
(1).
c.
At least 60 days prior to the actual date of testing, a
written test plan shall be submitted to the Illinois EPA
for review. This plan shall describe the specific
procedures for testing and shall include as a minimum:
i.
The person(s) who will be performing sampling and

Note:
The formal observation required above is not
intended to be a USEPA Test Method 9 opacity test, nor does
the observation require a USEPA Test Method 9 certified
observer. It is intended to be performed by personnel
familiar with the operation of the affected turbine who
would be able to make a determination based from the
observed opacity as to whether or not the affected turbine
was running properly, and subsequently initiate a
corrective action if necessary.
b.
The affected turbine shall comply with the applicable
monitoring requirements of 40 CFR 60.334(h), below.
Monitoring of fuel nitrogen content shall not be required
while the facility does not claim an allowance for fuel-
bound nitrogen. Monitoring for sulfur content in fuel is

subpart:
Shall monitor the total sulfur content of the fuel being
fired in the turbine, except as provided in 40 CFR
60.335(h) (3). The sulfur content of the fuel must be
determined using total sulfur methods described in 40 CFR
60.335(b) (10). Alternatively, if the total sulfur content
of the gaseous fuel during the most recent performance test
was less than 0.4 weight percent (4000 ppmw) , ASTM D4084-
82, 94, D5504-01, D6228-98, or Gas Processors Association

compounds may be used, pursuant to 40 CFR 60.334(h) (1); and
Shall monitor the nitrogen content of the fuel combusted in
the turbine, if the owner or operator claims an allowance
for fuel bound nitrogen (i.e., if an F-value greater than
zero is being or will be used by the owner or operator to
calculate STD in 40 CFR 60.332). The nitrogen content of
the fuel shall be determined using methods described in 40
CFR 60.335(b) (9) or an approved alternative, pursuant to 40
CFR 60.334 (h) (2) .

Conclusions.
In the event that the fuel oil supplier is unable to
provide the sulfur content of the fuel oil supply for
the affected diesel engines, the Permittee shall have
the sulfur content of the oil supply to the affected
diesel engines, in Ibs/mmBtu, determined from an
analysis of representative sample of the oil supply,
as follows, pursuant to Section 39.5(7) (d) of the
Act:
A.
From a sample taken no later than 90 days after
first operating the affected diesel engines
pursuant to this permit, provided, however,
that if such sample is taken following
operation of the affected diesel engines, the
sample shall be taken prior to adding more oil
to the storage tank.
B.
From a sample taken no later than 30 days after
acceptance of a shipment of fuel whose sulfur
content would not meet Condition 7.2.3(c) based

Monitoring Requirements
a.
i.
If an affected diesel engine is routinely operated or
exercised to confirm that the affected diesel engine
will operate when needed, the operation and opacity
of the affected diesel engine shall be formally
observed
by
operating personnel for the affected
diesel engine or a member of Permittee's
environmental staff on a regular basis to assure that
the affected diesel engine is operating properly,
which observations shall be made at least every six
months.
ii.
If an affected diesel engine is not routinely
operated or exercised, i.e., the time interval
between operation of an affected diesel engine is
typically greater than six months, the operation and
opacity of the affected diesel engine shall be
formally observed as provided above each time the
Permittee carries out a scheduled exercise of the
affected diesel engine.
iii. The Permittee shall also conduct formal observations
of operation and opacity of an affected diesel engine
upon written request by the Illinois EPA. With the
agreement of the Illinois EPA, the Permittee may
schedule these observations to take place during
periods when it would otherwise be operating the
affected diesel engine.
Note: The "formally observation" required above is not
intended to be a USEPA Test Method 9 opacity test, nor does
the observation require a USEPA Test Method 9 certified
observer. It is intended to be performed by personnel
familiar with the operation of the affected diesel engines
who would be able to make a determination based from the
affected diesel engines who would be able to make a
determination based from the observed opacity as to whether
of not the affected diesel engine was running properly, and
subsequently initiate a corrective action if necessary.
