Form of the standard assumes 5 years of meteorological data. If using on-site gathered meteorological data, the form of the standard would be based on at least one year of on-site data. No de minimis air quality level is provided for ozone monitoring. However, any net emissions increase of 40 tons per year or more of VOC or NOx subject to PSD would be required to perform an ambient impact analysis including gathering of air quality data. c These KDHE-established interim SILs are to be valid until the EPA promulgated SILs are effective and adopted in Kansas air quality regulations. d Based on the annual distribution of daily maximum 1-hour values, averaged over 5 consecutive years. e The existing annual and 24-hour SO2 NAAQS will be revoked one year after the effective date in areas with a designated status for the revised SO2 NAAQS, per 40 CFR 50.4(e). f From http://www.epa.gov/nsr/documents/20100929finalrule.pdf The Significant Monitoring Concentration threshold for PM2.5 24-hour averaging period was vacated on January 22, 2013. g Form of PM10 NAAQS allows the standard to be exceeded once per year on average using the H6H value over 5 years. Refer to page 4 from the March 23, 2010 Stephen Page memo or FR Doc No: 06-8477. h The annual PM10 NAAQS of 50 g/m3 was revoked October 17, 2006 but the annual PM10 PSD increments remain in effect. i Not to be exceeded. j http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2013-01-15/pdf/2012-30946.pdf v. 1/30/13
