Or. Admin. Code § 345-024-0570
The Council may by rule modify the carbon dioxide emissions standard for base load gas plants in OAR 345-024-0550 if the Council finds that the most efficient stand-alone combined cycle, combustion turbine, natural gas-fired energy facility that is commercially demonstrated and operating in the United States has a net heat rate of less than 5,907 Btu per kilowatt hour higher heating value adjusted to ISO conditions. In modifying the carbon dioxide emission standard, the Council shall determine the rate of carbon dioxide emissions per kilowatt hour of net electric output of such energy facility, adjusted to ISO conditions and reset the carbon dioxide emissions standard at 17 percent below this rate.
