Section NR 418.04 - Milwaukee RACT sulfur limitations(1) No person may cause, allow or permit sulfur dioxide to be emitted to the ambient air within the corporate boundaries of the city of Milwaukee, Milwaukee county, from any direct source on which construction or modification was commenced prior to December 1, 1983, averaged over any 24-hour period in amounts greater than specified in this subsection.(a) For any electrical utility installation rated at more than 250 million Btu heat input per hour, emissions from any stack may not exceed: 1. 3.28 pounds sulfur dioxide per million Btu heat input for solid fossil fuel, 1.60 pounds sulfur dioxide per million Btu heat input for residual fuel oil and 0.50 pounds sulfur dioxide per million Btu heat input for all other fuels, or2. Q, when different fuels are burned in combination. Q is determined by the following equation: Q = X(3.28) + Y(1.60) + Z(0.5) / X + Y +Z
where Q is the sulfur dioxide emission limit for a stack expressed in pounds of sulfur dioxide per million Btu heat input, X is the percent of total heat input derived from solid fossil fuel, Y is the percent of total heat input derived from residual fuel oil, and Z is the percent of total heat input derived from all other fuels.
(2) When a source is subject to the emission limitations of sub. (1), the owner or operator shall achieve final compliance with the applicable emission limitations and so certify to the department by November 9, 1985. Wis. Admin. Code Department of Natural Resources NR 418.04
