Proposed Part 243, CAIR NOx Ozone Season Trading Program, Part 244, CAIR NOx Annual Trading Program, and Part 245, CAIR SO2 Trading Program
The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (the Department) proposes to revise the terms of 6 NYCRR Part 243, CAIR NOx Ozone Season Trading Program, 6 NYCRR Part 244, CAIR NOx Annual Trading Program, and 6 NYCRR Part 245, CAIR SO2 Trading Program (collectively, the NYS CAIR rules) to incorporate changes to the model federal regulations on which the three NYS CAIR rules are based, and make minor clarifications and corrections to the NYS CAIR rules.
The NYS CAIR rules are the New York State components of regional cap-and-trade programs that apply primarily to large fossil fuel-fired electricity generating units (EGUs) in a region encompassing the District of Columbia and twenty-seven States in the eastern United States. With the exception of the inclusion of certain additional sources under Part 243, the NYS CAIR rules apply to EGUs having a nameplate capacity greater than 25 megawatts electrical (MWe) producing electricity for sale. Part 243 also covers all sources that were covered under Part 204, NOx Budget Trading Program, including cement manufacturers, certain large industrial sources, and EGUs with a nameplate capacity equal to or greater than 15 MWe.
