FACILITY DESCRIPTION

The Cheswick Generating Station is an electric generating facility located on Pittsburgh and Porter Streets in Springdale, PA.  The plant is composed of one main boiler exhausting to one stack, which fires coal or synfuel as the primary fuel and natural gas as an auxiliary fuel for startup, shutdown, and at the operators' discretion. Pollution control equipment for the main boiler includes low NOx burners with separated overfire air, electrostatic precipitation with flue gas conditioning, selective catalytic reduction, and Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD).  The plant also has a No. 2 oil fired auxiliary boiler which exhausts to a separate stack.  The facility is a major source of sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen oxides (NOX), particulate matter (PM), particulate matter less than 10 microns in diameter. (PM-10), particulate matter less than 2.5 microns in diameter (PM-2.5), carbon monoxide emissions (CO), volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and hazardous air pollutants (HAPs); as defined in of Article XXI § 2101.20. The facility is also subject to the acid rain regulations. The emission units regulated by this permit are summarized in Table II-1:

                             DECLARATION OF POLICY

Pollution prevention is recognized as the preferred strategy (over pollution control) for reducing risk to air resources. Accordingly, pollution prevention measures should be integrated into air pollution control programs wherever possible, and the adoption by sources of cost-effective compliance strategies, incorporating pollution prevention, is encouraged. The Department will give expedited consideration to any permit modification request based on pollution prevention principles.

The permittee is subject to the terms and conditions set forth below. These terms and conditions constitute provisions of Allegheny County Health Department Rules and Regulations, Article XXI Air Pollution Control. The subject equipment has been conditionally approved, for operation. The equipment shall be operated in conformity with the plans, specifications, conditions, and instructions which are part of your application, and may be periodically inspected for compliance by the Department. In the event that the terms and conditions of this permit or the applicable provisions of Article XXI conflict with the application for this permit, these terms and conditions and the applicable provisions of Article XXI shall prevail. Additionally, nothing in this permit relieves the permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable Federal, State and Local laws and regulations.

GENERAL CONDITIONS - Major Source

Prohibition of Air Pollution  (§2101.11.a)

      It shall be a violation of this permit to fail to comply with, or to cause or assist in the violation of, any requirement of this permit, or any order or permit issued pursuant to authority granted by Article XXI. The permittee shall not willfully, negligently, or through the failure to provide and operate necessary control equipment or to take necessary precautions, operate any source of air contaminants in such manner that emissions from such source:

Exceed the amounts permitted by this permit or by any order or permit issued pursuant to Article XXI;
Cause an exceedance of the ambient air quality standards established by Article XXI §2101.10; or
May reasonably be anticipated to endanger the public health, safety, or welfare.

Definitions  (§2101.20)

Except as specifically provided in this permit, terms used retain the meaning accorded them under the applicable provisions and requirements of Article XXI. Whenever used in this permit, or in any action taken pursuant to this permit, the words and phrases shall have the meanings stated, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

Unless specified otherwise in this permit or in the applicable regulation, the term "year" shall mean any twelve (12) consecutive months.

"RACT Order No. 217" shall be defined as Plan Approval Order and Agreement No. 217 Upon Consent, dated March 8, 1996.

"Synfuel" shall be defined as the coal and binder used in the production of synfuel. Such binders shall be only Covol 298, Covol 298-1, Nalco 9838, FTH-100, each as a latex binder, or soybean oil or other such binders as approved by the Department.

Conditions  (§2102.03.c)

It shall be a violation of this permit giving rise to the remedies provided by Article XXI §2109.02, for any person to fail to comply with any terms or conditions set forth in this permit.

Certification  (§2102.01)

Any report, or compliance certification submitted under this permit shall contain written certification by a responsible official as to truth, accuracy, and completeness. This certification and any other certification required under this permit shall be signed by a responsible official of the source, and shall state that, based on information and belief formed after reasonable inquiry, the statements and information in the document are true, accurate, and complete.
