Section 1200-03-31-.02 - DEFINITIONS

The following definitions are applicable to this chapter:

(1) "Major Source" means any stationary source or group of stationary sources located within a contiguous area and under common control that emits or has the potential to emit considering controls, in the aggregate, 10 tons per year or more of any hazardous air pollutant or 25 tons per year of any combination of hazardous air pollutants. In addition, the provisions of subpart (11)(b)14.(i) of Rule 1200-03-09-.02 are recognized as to the grouping or aggregation of emissions for the purpose of calculating emission potential as it relates to the applicability thresholds of this definition. Additionally, electric utility steam generating units will not be regulated as major sources until the United States Environmental Protection Agency decides that they should be so regulated pursuant to Section 112(n) of the Federal Clean Air Act.

(2) "Area Source" means any stationary source of hazardous air pollutants that is not a major source. Mobile sources such as vehicles, trains, planes, ships, et cetera are not area sources.

(3) "New Source" means a stationary source that emits hazardous air pollutants as they are defined in this paragraph and is constructed or reconstructed on or after the date that the United States Environmental Protection Agency approves the major source operating permit program submitted by the State of Tennessee in accordance with Section 502(d) of the Federal Clean Air Act.

(4) "Stationary Source" shall have the meaning given to it in subparagraph (1)(ddd) of Rule 1200 03-02-.01.

(5) "Existing Source" is any stationary source that emits hazardous air pollutants as they are defined in paragraph (6) of this rule and is not a new source.

R' = H or alkyl C7 or less; or

OR' consisting of carboxylic acid ester, sulfate, phosphate, nitrate, or sulfonate.

This action deletes each individual compound in a group called the surfactant alcohol ethoxylates and their derivatives (SAED) from the glycol ethers category in the list of hazardous air pollutants (HAP) established by section 112(b)(1) of the Clean Air Act (CAA).

³ Includes mineral fiber emissions from facilities manufacturing or processing glass, rock, or slag fibers (or other mineral derived fibers) of average diameter 1 micrometer or less.

⁴ Includes organic compounds with than one benzene ring, and which have a boiling point greater than or equal to 100° C.

⁵ a type of atom which spontaneously undergoes radioactive decay.

⁶ The substance ethylene glycol monobutyl ether (EGBE, 2-Butoxyethanol) (Chemical Abstract Service (CAS) Number 111-76-2) is deleted from the list of hazardous air pollutants established by 42 U.S.C. 7412(b)(1).

(9) "GACT" means generally available control technology. It is a case-by-case determination of what constitutes reasonable and proper control for hazardous air pollutants from area sources. GACT may include, but is not limited to: control equipment, work practice standards, emission standards, process modification, or raw materials substitution and/or reformulation.
