Sec. 60.43  Standard for sulfur dioxide (SO2).

    (a) Except as provided under paragraph (d) of this section, on and 
after the date on which the performance test required to be conducted by 
Sec. 60.8 is completed, no owner or operator subject to the provisions 
of this subpart shall cause to be discharged into the atmosphere from 
any affected facility any gases that contain SO2 in excess 
of:
    (1) 340 ng/J heat input (0.80 lb/MMBtu) derived from liquid fossil 
fuel or liquid fossil fuel and wood residue.
    (2) 520 ng/J heat input (1.2 lb/MMBtu) derived from solid fossil 
fuel or solid fossil fuel and wood residue, except as provided in 
paragraph (e) of this section.
    (b) Except as provided under paragraph (d) of this section, when 
different fossil fuels are burned simultaneously in any combination, the 
applicable standard (in ng/J) shall be determined by proration using the 
following formula:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR13JN07.000

Where:

PSSO2 = Prorated standard for SO2 when burning 
different fuels simultaneously, in ng/J heat input derived from all 
fossil fuels or from all fossil fuels and wood residue fired;
y = Percentage of total heat input derived from liquid fossil fuel; and
z = Percentage of total heat input derived from solid fossil fuel.

    (c) Compliance shall be based on the total heat input from all 
fossil fuels burned, including gaseous fuels.
    (d) As an alternate to meeting the requirements of paragraphs (a) 
and (b) of this section, an owner or operator can petition the 
Administrator (in writing) to comply with Sec. 60.43Da(i)(3) of subpart 
Da of this part or comply with Sec. 60.42b(k)(4) of subpart Db of this 
part, as applicable to the affected source. If the Administrator grants 
the petition, the source will from then on (unless the unit is modified 
or reconstructed in the future) have to comply with the requirements in 
Sec. 60.43Da(i)(3) of subpart Da of this part or Sec. 60.42b(k)(4) of 
subpart Db of this part, as applicable to the affected source.
    (e) Units 1 and 2 (as defined in appendix G of this part) at the 
Newton Power Station owned or operated by the Central Illinois Public 
Service Company will be in compliance with paragraph (a)(2) of this 
section if Unit 1 and Unit 2 individually comply with paragraph (a)(2) 
of this section or if the combined emission rate from Units 1 and 2 does 
not exceed 470 ng/J (1.1 lb/MMBtu) combined heat input to Units 1 and 2.
