SECTION VII. OKLAHOMA AIR POLLUTION CONTROL RULES

OAC 252:100-1 (General Provisions) [Applicable]

Subchapter 1 includes definitions but there are no regulatory requirements.
OAC 252:100-3 (Air Quality Standards and Increments) [Applicable]

Subchapter 3 enumerates the primary and secondary ambient air quality standards and the significant deterioration increments. At this time, all of Oklahoma is in “attainment” of these standards. In addition, modeled emissions from the proposed facility demonstrate that the facility would not have a significant impact on air quality.



OAC 252:100-4 (New Source Performance Standards) [Applicable]

Federal regulations in 40 CFR Part 60 are incorporated by reference as they exist on July 1, 2002, except for the following: Subpart A (Sections 60.4, 60.9, 60.10, and 60.16), Subpart B, Subpart C, Subpart Ca, Subpart Cb, Subpart Cc, Subpart Cd, Subpart Ce, Subpart AAA, and Appendix G. These requirements are covered in the “Federal Regulations” section.
OAC 252:100-5 (Registration, Emissions Inventory and Annual Operating Fees) [Applicable]

Subchapter 5 requires sources of air contaminants to register with Air Quality, file emission inventories annually, and pay annual operating fees based upon total annual emissions of regulated pollutants. Emission inventories were submitted and fees paid for previous years as required.



OAC 252:100-8 (Permits for Part 70 Sources) [Applicable]

Part 5 includes the general administrative requirements for Part 70 permits. Any planned changes in the operation of the facility that result in emissions not authorized in the permit and that exceed the “Insignificant Activities” or “Trivial Activities” thresholds require prior notification to AQD and may require a permit modification. Insignificant activities refer to those individual emission units either listed in Appendix I or whose actual calendar year emissions do not exceed the following limits.


  • 5 TPY of any one criteria pollutant

  • 2 TPY of any one hazardous air pollutant (HAP) or 5 TPY of multiple HAPs or 20% of any threshold less than 10 TPY for a HAP that the EPA may establish by rule

Emission limitations and operational requirements necessary to assure compliance with all applicable requirements for all sources are taken from existing and pending permits, the current permit application, or are developed from the applicable requirement.



OAC 252:100-9 (Excess Emissions Reporting Requirements) [Applicable]

In the event of any release which results in excess emissions, the owner or operator of such facility shall notify the Air Quality Division as soon as the owner or operator of the facility has knowledge of such emissions, but no later than 4:30 p.m. the next working day. Within ten (10) working days after the immediate notice is given, the owner or operator shall submit a written report describing the extent of the excess emissions and response actions taken by the facility. Part 70/Title V sources must report any exceedance that poses an imminent and substantial danger to public health, safety, or the environment as soon as is practicable. Under no circumstances shall notification be more than 24 hours after the exceedance.

OAC 252:100-13 (Open Burning) [Applicable]


Open burning of refuse and other combustible material is prohibited except as authorized in the specific examples and under the conditions listed in this subchapter.


OAC 252:100-19 (Particulate Matter (PM)) [Applicable]

Section 19-4 regulates emissions of PM from new and existing fuel-burning equipment, with emission limits based on maximum design heat input rating. Appendix C specifies PM emission limitations for all equipment at this facility. Fuel-burning equipment is defined in OAC 252:100-1 as “combustion devices used to convert fuel or wastes to usable heat or power.” Boilers B-1, B-2, B-3, and B-4, Paper Machine Drying Hoods PM-11, PM-12, PM-13, PM-14, and PM-15, and the Poly Printer Tunnel Dryers are subject to the requirements of this subchapter. AP-42 (7/98) Table 1.4-1 lists natural gas Total Particulate Matter (TPM) emissions to be 7.6 lbs/million scf or about 0.0076 lbs/MMBTU. Stack tests conducted on January 7, 8, 9, 2003 for B-2, on May 20 & 21, 2003 for B-3, and on April 15 & 16, 2003 for B-4, established emission factors for coal. Converting these factors to units of lbs/MMBTU yields the values illustrated in the tables below, which demonstrate compliance with the allowable. It should be noted that these emission factors are uncontrolled factors, i.e., they do not take emission controls into account.

Section 19-12 limits particulate emissions from new and existing directly fired fuel-burning units and emission points in an industrial process based on process weight rate, as specified in Appendix G. Hourly throughputs were calculated by dividing the annual rates stated in the Emissions Section above by 8,760 hours per year and using emission factors from that section. The following table illustrates the calculated hourly rates of PM emissions. All emission points will be in compliance with the Subchapter 19 limits.
