The following emission limitations were reviewed in the analysis and preliminary determination and were determined not to apply to this stationary source:

S. NR 428.05(3)(d), Wis. Adm. Code, for process POI, because the maximum design power output is less than the 50 MWe exemption threshold.

S. NR 428.05(3)(e), Wis. Adm. Code, for processes P06, P07'and P09, because the maximpm design plower output of each of these engines is less than the 2,000 HP threshold.

The requirement to test as well as initial and periodic test schedules, if testing is required; will be stated here.

Notwithstanding the'compliance determination -methods which the-owner,or operator of a sources is authorized to use under ch. NR 439, Wis. Adm. Code, the Department may use any relevant information or appropriate method to determine a sourcels compliance with applicable emission limitations.

Reference Test Methods, Recordkeeping, and Monitoring Requirements -- Specific USEPA Reference test methods or other approved test methods will be contained in this area and are the methods that must be used whenever testing is required. A reference test method will be listed even if no testing is immediately required. Also included in this area are any recordkeeping requirements and their frequency and reporting requirements. Accuracy of monitoring equipment shall meet, at a minimum, the requirements of s. NR 439.055(3) and (4), Wis. Adm. Code, as specified in Part II of this permit.
