December 11, 1978 PSD Applicability
- Temporary Emissions 13.1
Potential as well as allowable emissions
estimates for a source should be
calculated without taking into account
any emissions which result from
construction of the source. Therefore,
construction related emissions should not
be considered in determining whether a
source should be required to undergo a
second-tier review. Then, if the source
is determined to be subject to 2-tier PSD
review on the basis of its operating
emissions, any emission resulting from
construction of the source should be
subject to BACT. The construction of a
building or other structure which is not
a major stationary source or a major
modification should not come under PSD
review regardless of expected
construction emissions.
