Workshop Technical and Policy Studies to Support the Annex May 21-22, 2002

Overview of Workshop Background information about the regional haze rule and the Annex Background information about SO2 in the West Roll-out major studies to provide additional information about the Annex

Overview of Workshop Discussion of EPA proposed approval of the Annex On-going work of the WRAP to support 309 option

Section 309 and Annex

1999 Regional Haze Rule The nine Transport Region states have the option to develop SIPs under section 308 or 309 of the rule Adopted the GCVTC recommendations as section 309 Implementation of GCVTC recommen-dations is demonstration of reasonable progress

1999 Regional Haze Rule 2003 SIPs - Stationary Source Requirements Monitoring and reporting of stationary source SO2 emissions Declining SO2 emissions cap Criteria and procedures for backstop trading program Provisions for activating backstop trading program and compliance reporting

1999 Regional Haze Rule 2003 SIPs - Requirements for other sources Mobile sources: Cap emissions at lowest level in areas that contribute significantly to visibility impairment Fire: Enhanced smoke management programs Area Sources: Emission management strategies for fugitive dust if necessary

1999 Regional Haze Rule 2003 SIPs - Requirements for other sources Pollution Prevention: Renewable energy goals Other Recommendations as practicable The entire package of emission reduction strategies is needed for a 309 SIP

1999 Regional Haze rule Schedule (section 309) Annex to GCVTC Recommendations due October 1, 2000 SIPs due December 31, 2003 No required submittal dates for TIPs Periodic Reports in 2008, 2013 New SIP under section 308 due in 2018

Annex Submitted September 29, 2000 Developed through stakeholder, consensus-based process Supplementary information to address EPA questions – May 2001 EPA proposed approval on May 6, 2002

Milestones - Principles Achieve Steady Continuing Emissions Reductions Provide Flexibility to Sources “Up-Front” for Greater “Back-End” Reductions 2018 Milestone Achieves Greater Reasonable Progress than BART

SO2 Milestones 13% Reduction 52% Reduction

Compliance Averaging and Banking Compliance based on annual assessment of 3-year rolling average 2018 milestone compliance determined based on 2018 inventory (1 year) Banking of early reductions allowed

Better Reasonable Progress Than BART Provides remedy for existing and prevention of future impairment More sources and total tonnage covered New source growth capped for the region Regional haze visibility improvement not distinguishable from application of BART

2018 Certainty Concern that the majority of emissions reductions occur in the 2013-2018 time frame States and tribes may trigger the cap-and-trade program if the 2013 milestone is achieved, but best projections show that the 2018 milestone may not be achieved Penalties in 2018 if milestone is not met

Opt-in/Opt-out Procedures Budget calculated for each state and tribe that has major sources of SO2 New source set-aside budget Solely for purposes of adjusting the milestone Set-aside will remain at regional level Tribal allocation not affected Critical Mass question

Allocations Set-asides Source Specific 20,000 tons for tribes 27,000 tons for new sources Suspended smelters California RECLAIM Source Specific Floor (BACT/BART/LAER) Reducible Renewables

Trading Program Elements Model Rule defines: Procedures Duties of program administrator Monitoring, record keeping and reporting Compliance and enforcement MOU among participating States and Tribes

Reasonably Attributable Visibility Impairment Hot Spots – not regional haze 3-step process Certification by FLM (screening process) Attribution analysis by state/tribe BART analysis (several remedy options proposed)
