1.2 Facility description
Minnesota Power (Permittee) owns and operates the Boswell Energy Center (facility) located in Cohasset, Minnesota (WPPI Energy of Sun Prairie, Wisconsin (the co-Permittee) owns a 20% stake in Unit 4). The facility is composed of four pulverized coal-fired Electric Utility Steam Generators Units (EUSGU or EGU), as well as coal, ash, and reagent handling equipment, fugitive emission sources, and three emergency generators.
Unit 1 (dry bottom wall-fired) commenced construction in 1954 and operation in 1958, has a Continuous Emissions Monitoring System (CEMS)-based Normal Dependable Heat Input (refer to discussion of this term in Section 3.3) capacity of 1075 mmBtu per hour, and a gross output of 100 megawatts. Unit 2 (dry bottom wall-fired) commenced construction in 1956 and operation in 1960, has CEMS-based Normal Dependable Heat Input capacity of 910 mmBtu per hour, and a gross output of 100 megawatts. Unit 3 (dry bottom tangential-fired) commenced construction in 1970 and operation in 1973, has a CEMS-based Normal Dependable Heat Input capacity of 4425 mmBtu per hour, and a gross output of 450 megawatts. Unit 4 (dry bottom tangential-fired) commenced construction in 1978 and operation in 1980, has a CEMS-based Normal Dependable Heat Input capacity of 6800 mmBtu per hour, and a gross output of 690 megawatts. The boilers are currently fired with subbituminous coal.
All four boilers emit particulate matter (PM), PM less than 10 microns (PM10), PM less than 2.5 microns (PM2.5), sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen oxides (NOX), carbon monoxide (CO), volatile organic compounds (VOC), sulfuric acid mist, mercury (Hg), and hazardous air pollutants (HAPs).
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 2 of 70
Units 1 and 2 each employ a fabric filter (FF) for PM, PM10, and PM2.5 control, and selective non-catalytic reduction (SNCR) with urea injection and rotating opposed-fired air (ROFA) controls for NOX control. Neither unit is equipped with add-on SO2 or Hg controls (but it is possible that calcium oxide in the ash reacts with SO2 in the flue gas to provide some SO2 reduction).
Unit 3 employs a FF for PM, PM10, and PM2.5 control, selective catalytic reduction (SCR) with ammonia injection, low-NOX burners, and overfire air controls for NOX control, wet flue gas desulfurization (FGD) for SO2 (and fluoride and hydrogen chloride) control, activated carbon injection (ACI) for Hg control, and good combustion practices for CO control. Unit 3 is subject to Best Available Retrofit Technology requirements at part 51, subp. P because it was not in operation prior to August 7, 1962, and was in existence on August 7, 1977.
Unit 4 employs a combined control device comprised of a FF for PM, PM10, and PM2.5 control and a semi-dry FGD for SO2 (and fluoride and hydrogen chloride) control, SNCR with urea injection, low-NOX burners, and overfire air controls for NOX control, ACI for Hg control, and good combustion practices for CO control .

1.6 Changes to Permit and Facility Data
As described above in Sections 1.3 and 1.4, the permit does authorize or incorporate certain specific modifications. In addition, the MPCA has a combined operating and construction permit program under Minnesota Rules Chapter 7007, and under Minn. R. 7007.0800, the MPCA has authority to include additional requirements in a permit. Under that authority, permit updates are made to reflect current MPCA templates and standard citation formatting, completed requirements and the requirements for removed equipment have been deleted as specified below, as well as the following additional changes are made as described below:
· Total Facility
§ The requirement to operate pollution control equipment whenever the corresponding process and emission units are operating was revised to acknowledge that operation of EQUI85 and EQUI100 (Units 4 and 3, respectively) mercury control equipment (TREA22 and TREA28, respectively) is not required when the respective boiler combusts only natural gas.
The requirement in permit No. 06100004-007 stated:
Air Pollution Control Equipment: Operate all pollution control equipment whenever the corresponding process equipment and emission units are operated. [Minn. R. 7007.0800, subp. 2, Minn. R. 7007.0800, subp. 16(J)].
The revised requirement in permit No. 06100004-008 states:
Air Pollution Control Equipment: Operate all pollution control equipment whenever the corresponding process equipment and emission units are operated unless specified otherwise in this permit (refer to requirements 5.20.19 and 5.32.14 in subject items EQUI85 (Unit 4) and EQUI100 (Unit 3), respectively for specific requirements allowing EQUI85 and EQUI100 to operate without operating TREA22 and TREA28 mercury controls, respectively, only when firing only natural gas). [Minn. R. 7007.0800, subp. 16(J), Minn. R. 7007.0800, subp. 2(A)&(B)].
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 5 of 70
Requirement background: Requiring operation of control equipment whenever the corresponding process equipment and emission units are operating ensures compliance with all applicable requirements at the time of permit issuance and is necessary to protect human health and the environment.
Minn. R. 7007.0800, subp. 2(A)&(B) state:
Subp. 2. Emission limitations and standards. The permit must:
A. include emissions limitations, operational requirements, and other provisions needed to ensure compliance with all applicable requirements at the time of permit issuance. For part 70 permits, the requirements and limitations must include approved replicable methodologies identified by the source in its permit application if approved by the commissioner, provided that no approved replicable methodologies shall contravene any terms needed to comply with any applicable requirement or requirement of this part or circumvent any applicable requirement that would apply as a result of implementing the approved replicable method;
B. include any condition the commissioner determines to be necessary to protect human health and the environment;
Minn. R. 7007.0800, subp. 16(J) states:
J. The permittee shall at all times properly operate and maintain the facilities and systems of treatment and control and the appurtenances related to them which are installed or used by the permittee to achieve compliance with the conditions of the permit. Proper operation and maintenance includes effective performance, adequate funding, adequate operator staffing and training, and adequate laboratory and process controls, including appropriate quality assurance procedures.
The permit control equipment operating requirement is derived from both Minn. R. 7007.0800, subp. 2(A)&(B) and Minn. R. 7007.0800, subp. 16(J). In certain situations, process equipment/emission units and control equipment can be installed without a permit. Operation of such controls is not required by Minn. R. 7007.0800, subp. 16(J) because the process equipment/emission unit and control equipment are not included in the permit. The inclusion of Minn. R. 7007.0800, subp. 2(A)&(B) in the requirement citation is necessary because requiring operation of control equipment whenever the corresponding process equipment/emission unit is operating regardless if the process equipment/emission unit and/or control equipment are in the permit, ensures compliance with all applicable requirements at the time of permit issuance and is necessary to protect human health and the environment.
Other Control Equipment Operating Requirements Revisions: Existing allowances for not operating EQUI82 and EQUI83 PM controls during startup were revised as discussed below under EQUI82 and EQUI83, to align with Consent Decree requirements for continuous operation of Units 1 and 2 PM control equipment to meet the applicable Consent Decree filterable PM limit. The Consent Decree also requires continuous operation of Units 3 and 4 PM, SO2, and NOX control equipment to meet the applicable Consent Decree filterable PM, SO2, and NOX limits. These requirements to continuously operate the control equipment are part of the applicable PM, SO2, and NOX limits under EQUI82, EQUI83, EQUI85, and EQUI100.
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 6 of 70
§ The igniter gun carbon monoxide (CO) limit and recordkeeping requirements were moved to COMG9 because the requirement applies to the four electric generating unit boilers and not to the entire facility.
§ Removed completed requirement to submit updated fugitive emissions control plan due to submittal of an updated plan on October 2, 2013. Note the 2013 plan was replaced by a September 18, 2015 plan revision prompted by the increased coal handling and coal pile storage 2015 minor amendment application to comply with 40 CFR Section 60.254(c) for FUGI9 (FS001) Coal Stockpile Wind Erosion and FUGI11 (FS006) Coal Stockpile Material Handling Including Segment For Coal Stockpile Material Handling Using Portable Conveyors. The September 2015 plan was subsequently updated in November 2017 and again in April 2018, and is attached as Appendix D to the permit.
§ SO2 re-modeling requirements based on the results of 2014 title V modeling for the 1-hour SO2 NAAQS were added to the permit. Also, requirements to repeat the 2014 modeling for the PM2.5 24-hour NAAQS were added to the permit because numerous 2014 PM2.5 modeling parameters were revised in the updated September 2016 title V reissuance application, and many of those revised parameters would increase ambient PM2.5 impacts. In addition, CO modeling requirements were updated to reflect current agency policy (refer to Section 3.2 modeling discussion below). Finally, parameters for circa 2007 Title V PM10, SO2, and NOX modeling were removed because numerous modeled parameters are no longer accurate and the results of that modeling were well below the relevant ambient air standard as discussed in Section 3.2.
§ Transport Rule requirements from part 97 were added to the permit (primarily as Appendix G)
§ The Fugitive Emissions Control Plan (FECP) was updated and requirements for updating the FECP were added. The requirements are based on 40 CFR §§ 60.254(c)(4)(ii) and 60.254(c)(5).
· COMG1 (GP 004) EGU SO2 Limits
§ Existing COMG1 1-hour SO2 modeling-based limits and citations were revised primarily based on staff review of October 19, 1987 and January 13, 1988 Air Quality Division memoranda. The memoranda from agency modeling staff to agency Air Quality management were a review of the 1987-1988 SO2 modeling results. The results indicated SO2 emissions at 4.0 lb/mmBtu (equal to the Minnesota Indirect Heating Equipment Rule (IHER) SO2 limit) did not cause exceedances of the SO2 National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) 3-hour standard (at 40 CFR 50.5) or the Minnesota Ambient Air Quality Standard (MAAQS) 3-hour standard when EQUI82, EQUI83, and EQUI100 vent through STRU13. However, when EQUI82 and EQUI83 vent through STRU12, several 1-hour SO2 limits (1.18 lb/mmBtu limit for EQUI82 and EQUI83, and 2.97 lb/mmBtu for EQUI100) were necessary to protect the 1-hour SO2 MAAQS. SO2 limits applicable to EQUI100 and EQUI85 when EQUI82 and EQUI83 were not operating, were also outcomes of this modeling.
The EQUI82, EQUI83, and EQUI100 SO2 4.0 lb/hr limit on a 1-hour average was split into two distinct limits for each boiler: one 4.0 lb/mmBtu limit (3-hour average) based on the IHER limit, and a second 4.0 lb/mmBtu (1-hour average) derived from the 1980’s SO2 modeling.
The citation for the EQUI100 and EQUI85 SO2 limits (1-hour basis) composed of three sets (referred to as ‘Conditions’) of SO2 limits applicable when EQUI82 and
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 7 of 70
EQUI83 are not operating, was revised by removing ‘40 CFR pt. 50’ and changing ‘Minn. R. ch. 7009’ to ‘Minn. R. 7009.0020’. The revision was made because this set of three SO2 limits are the outcome of 1987-1988 modeling for demonstrating compliance with the 1-hour SO2 MAAQS (the 1-hour SO2 NAAQS was not promulgated until 2010.) Also, in lieu of citing ‘Minn. R. ch. 7009’, the more relevant citation is ‘Minn. R. 7009.0020’. The 1988 operating permit that contained these limits cited ‘Minn. R. 7005.0080’ which is now codified at Minn. R. 7009.0080 (the MAAQS). Minn. R. 7009.0020 is used in this permit because it is a requirement that prohibits emissions that cause or contribute to a violation of a MAAQS, (Minn. R. 7009.0080 is the 1-hour SO2 MAAQS).
The EQUI85 1.20 lb/mmBtu 1-hour SO2 limit based on 40 CFR 52.21(k) modeling, Best Available Control Technology (BACT), and New Source Performance Standard (NSPS) subp. D was corrected by creating a separate 1.20 lb/mmBtu limit on a 3-hour basis cited as BACT, 40 CFR 52.21(k) modeling, and NSPS subp. D, and revising the existing 1.20 lb/mmBtu 1-hour SO2 limit citation to Minn. R. 7009.0020, and clarifying that the 1-hour modeling-based limit applies when EQUI85 operates alone, or when EQUI82 and EQUI83 vent through STRU12 or when EQUI82, EQUI83, and EQUI100 vent through STRU13.
The memoranda and the SO2 limits revisions are discussed further in Section 3.2.a of this document.
§ The Unit 1, 2, and 3 (EQUI82, EQUI83, and EQUI100) requirement (based on Minn. R. 7011.0505, subp. 3) for determining the applicable SO2 limit when co-firing solid and liquid fuels was revised. The revised equation calculates the applicable limit when co-firing solid and gaseous fuels because the EGUs no longer combust liquid fuel.
§ Consent Decree SO2 limits and pt. 63, subp. UUUUU MATS hydrogen chloride and alternate SO2 limits were added to COMG1The EQUI85/Unit 4 0.33 lb/mmBtu annual average SO2 limit was removed because the basis for this limit (Minn. R. 7021.0050 and chapter 7021) was repealed in 2013 (because other state and federal requirements adequately address SO2 emissions and the standard is no longer needed for environmental protection).
§ The EQUI85 0.030 lb/mmBtu on a 365-day rolling average basis SO2 limit from PER007 was removed because the 0.030 lb/mmBtu on a 30-day rolling average basis Consent Decree SO2 limit is more restrictive.
§ The EQUI85 NSPS subp. D SO2 limit equation for calculating the applicable SO2 limit when solid and liquid fossil fuel were co-fired was removed because distillate fuel oil is no longer an EQUI85 fuel option. (The EQUI85 SO2 BACT limit (equal to the 1.2 lb/mmBtu NSPS limit for solid fossil fuel), was not revised because the BACT limit did not contain the equation that determines the SO2 limit when both solid and liquid fossil fuels are co-fired.)
§ Removed the EQUI100 0.09 lb/mmBtu SO2 limit (30-day rolling average; basis was Minn. R. 7007.0800, subp. 2) that was added to the permit by PER 003.
This limit was set to address anticipated Best Available Retrofit Technology (sometimes referred to as BART) requirements and was included in the Minnesota State Implementation Plan (SIP) December 31, 2009 SIP Revision submittal was sent to EPA. However, the MPCA intended to rely on the cap and trade features of the Clean Air Interstate Rule (CAIR) program instead of BART limits applicable to individual EGUs. Regardless, CAIR was remanded by the D.C. Circuit of the U.S. Court
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 8 of 70
of Appeals in December 2008 and stayed in Minnesota in December 2009. This lead Minnesota to rely on the source-specific BART determinations at that time for the 2009 Regional Haze SIP. In October 2011, EPA finalized the CAIR replacement known as the Cross State Air Pollution Rule (CSAPR), which is a cap and trade rule similar to CAIR. In December 2011, EPA proposed a rule to allow CSAPR as an alternative to the source-specific BART determinations. In July 2012, EPA approved Minnesota’s proposal to implement CSPAR in place of BART for EGUs. Although CSAPR was subject to additional court challenges, the rule remains in place and the case-by-case BART determinations are not applicable.
Finally, the EQUI100 0.030 lb/mmBtu (30-day rolling average) Consent Decree SO2 limit is more restrictive than the 0.09 lb/mmBtu SO2 limit (30-day rolling average) removed by this permit action.
· COMG3
§ Certain coal handling insignificant activities are now in the permit and associated fabric filters are subject to standard fabric filter monitoring requirements in COMG3.
§ Added particulate matter less than 10 microns (PM10) and particulate matter less than 2.5 microns (PM2.5) percent control efficiency requirements for TREA37/CE007, TREA38/CE008, TREA39/CE009, and TREA40/CE010 because the Permittee relies on the control efficiency for calculating PM10 and PM2.5 emissions from the sources controlled by these fabric filters.
§ Added PM2.5 percent control efficiency requirements for TREA41/CE013, TREA1/CE016, TREA42/CE017, and TREA43/CE018 because the Permittee relies on the control efficiency for calculating PM2.5 emissions from the sources controlled by these fabric filters.
§ Added Lead percent control efficiency requirement for all low temperature fabric filters that control coal dust and fly ash because coal dust and fly ash contain lead, and the Permittee relies on the control efficiency to calculate lead emissions from these sources.
§ Added TREA46/CE045, TREA47/CE046, TREA48/CE047, TREA49/CE048, TREA50/CE049, TREA51/CE050, and TREA52/CE051 to COMG3 and appropriate particulate matter (PM), PM10, PM2.5, and Lead control efficiencies. These fabric filters control coal-handling emission sources previously listed as insignificant activities in prior permits for the facility, and the Permittee uses the control efficiency for these pollutants in emissions calculations, so the control efficiencies must be requirements in the permit.
§ The citation for the requirement to operate and maintain TREA41/CE013 (EQUI99/EU015 Hg Additive Handling and Unit 3 PAC Silo Storage) was changed from a state requirement to a Title I Condition. The revision was necessary because TREA41 was installed as part of the Unit 3 control equipment retrofit (authorized by permit No. 06100004-003 issued March 28, 2007) that avoided a major Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) modification for PM and PM10 (at that time PM10 was used as a surrogate for PM2.5 emissions and permitting). TREA41 is a fabric filter that controls PM and PM10 emissions to keep the modification non-major for PSD.
· COMG4 – added pt. 60, subp. D Continuous Opacity Monitoring System (COMS) requirement for measuring opacity, and revised Section 60.13(e) requirement for EQUI34 (EQUI85 COMS) to indicate the requirement only applies to EQUI34.
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 9 of 70
· COMG6 – added pt. 60, subp. D CEMS requirement for measuring EQUI85 SO2 and NOX and revised Section 60.13(e) requirement for EQUI53 and EQUI54 (EQUI85 SO2 AND NOX CEMS, respectively) to indicate the requirement only applies to EQUI53 and EQUI54.
· COMG7 – created this group for part 63, subp. UUUUU requirements.
· COMG8 – Created COMG8 for EQUI100 and EQUI85 carbon monoxide CEMS (EQUI71 and EQUI52, respectively) general requirements.
· COMG9
§ Moved Total Facility Igniter Gun CO limit and recordkeeping requirements to COMG9 and made the following changes:
§ References to oil combustion in igniter guns in the 319 tpy CO limit and recordkeeping requirements was removed because oil is no longer a permitted fuel option for the igniter guns.
§ The 319 tpy CO limit reference to an ‘Air Emissions Increase Analysis’ was corrected to an ‘Air Emissions Risk Analysis’ (AERA). This correction is based on the September 15, 2008 application for the igniter guns project that states the limit was designed to avoid the 100 tpy criteria pollutant increase threshold that would trigger an AERA. This limit was not designed to avoid a PSD major modification because actual-to-projected-actual emissions calculations indicated the largest projected increase (as a percent of the applicable PSD significant emission rate) would be for CO but was only 5.6 tpy.
§ Revised the 319 tpy CO limit and recordkeeping requirements by removing background information from the limit, and consolidating the recordkeeping activities into the recordkeeping requirement.
§ Added Test Burn requirements as requested by the Permittee.
§ Acid Rain Program requirements (other than boiler-specific NOX limits at each affected unit) were consolidated from each affected unit (EQUI82, EQUI83, EQUI100, and EQUI85) and the Total Facility subject item to COMG9.
· COMG10 – Created COMG10 to address the 2015 coal stockpile expansion project. COMG10 contains a single requirement that references recordkeeping and reporting requirements from § 52.21(r)(6) and Minn. R. 7007.0800, subps. 4 and 5 located under subject item TFAC1, and a list of affected subject items.
· Moved EQUI52 and EQUI71 (CO CEMS) requirements to COMG8 except for ongoing requirements for cylinder gas audits, relative accuracy test audits, and CEMS recertification.
· EQUI81/EU023 Unit 3 APCE 300 kW Emergency Generator
§ Requirement from Section 60.4211(c) that incorrectly referred to Section 52.05(b) was corrected to reference Section 60.4205(b).
§ Removed requirement based on Section 60.4207(c) because this regulation (regarding the use of non-compliant diesel fuel) was repealed.
§ Removed completed CO BACT stack test requirement
§ Revised requirements to reflect the May 4, 2016 D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals remand of Sections 60.4211(f)(2)(ii) and (iii) back to EPA.
· EQUI82, EQUI83, EQUI100, and EQUI85
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 10 of 70
§ Permitted Fuels: Removed distillate fuel oil because the oil ignitors were converted to natural gas. Also removed various items such as wastewater treatment sludge, boiler cleaning agents, and oily floor dry because although these materials may be nonhazardous secondary materials, they have not been evaluated according to the requirements of 40 CFR pt. 241 to determine if they are solid waste. Used oil as a fuel has been curtailed to incidental amounts of oil spillage/loss from coal handling equipment onto the coal.
§ Normal Dependable CEMS-based Heat Input: The (original boiler manufacturer’s) boiler heat input capacities were updated using a method employed in permit No. 16300005-012. Refer to Section 3 of this document for further discussion.
§ Revised the 40 CFR Section 75.10 CEMS and COMS monitoring requirement by adding flow monitoring, and removing ‘The SO2 and NOx monitors shall be capable of producing emission rates in units of lb/mmBtu on a one-hour average, a three-hour average and on a 30-day rolling average.’ because Section 75.10 does not require SO2 measurement in pound per million Btu heat input on a 1-hour average, 3-hour average, or a 30-day rolling average. (Section 75.10 only requires SO2 measurement in parts per million and pounds per hour.)
§ Moved all Acid Rain Program requirements to COMG9 except the NOX averaging plan requirement for each unit that was replaced by the applicable NOX limit from Section 76.7(a) as requested in the Permittee’s updated Acid Rain Program application.
§ Added requirements to operate control equipment for all pollutants subject to one or more emission limits.
· EQUI82 and EQUI83 – corrected the requirement to comply with the Acid Rain Program SO2 limit at Section 72.9(c)(1) by changing the requirement from ‘Comply with the applicable Acid Rain emissions limitation for sulfur dioxide.’ to ‘Comply with the applicable Acid Rain emissions limitation for sulfur dioxide for each year commencing January 1, 2000.’ based on the original requirement first added by PER 002.
The 0.10 pounds per million Btu PM limit was revised by indicating the limit is on a 24-hour basis (because it is based on PSD modeling TSP in 1977 during EQUI85 permitting). Also, the 0.60 pounds per million Btu heat input PM limit from Minn. R. 7011.0510 was added to the permit.
Added a requirement to operate the overfire air system and selective noncatalytic reduction system for NOX control for each boiler.
Added a requirement for EQUI82 and EQUI83 retirement (and notification thereof) by 12/31/2018 because the Permittee selected this option from the Consent Decree for these EGUs (Consent Decree options are repower, refuel, reroute, or retire EQUI82 and EQUI83).
The existing allowances for not operating EQUI82 and EQUI83 PM controls were revised because the Consent Decree requires Continuous Operation of such controls (as defined in the Consent Decree). The revisions removed the existing allowance, and replaced it with a reference to the Consent Decree.
The Consent Decree Continuous Operation and Continuously Operate definition, in part, references § 60.11(d) which states, in part, At all times, including periods of startup, shutdown, and malfunction, owners and operators shall, to the extent practicable, maintain and operate any affected facility including associated air pollution control equipment in a manner consistent with good air pollution control practice for minimizing
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 11 of 70
emissions. This language at § 60.11(d) only requires control equipment operation during startup to the extent practicable,
· EQUI85
§ Revised NOX limit citations – EQUI85 construction was authorized by a 1977 EPA PSD permit (EPA-77-A-6). That permit limited PM and SO2 but not NOX. A 1988 state-issued operating permit contained the 0.70 lb/mmBtu NOX limit from 40 CFR 60.44(a)(3), but did not contain a Title I NOX limit. However, the March 1997 initial title V operating permit citation for the 0.70 lb/mmBtu limit included 40 CFR 60.44 as well as ‘Title I Condition: 40 CFR Section 52.21 PSD BACT limit and ambient impacts analysis’. Inclusion of the Title I Condition was an error based on the lack of a NOX limit in the 1977 PSD construction permit. To correct this, the Title I Condition was removed from the citation for the EQUI85 0.70 lb/mmBtu NOX limit. The co-fired fuels NOX limit equation was also revised to account for the removal of liquid fuel (distillate fuel oil) as a permitted fuel type.
§ Revised requirements to reflect removal of old EQUI85 controls (electrostatic precipitator, venturi scrubber, and spray tower) and installation of new controls (TREA6 (Low NOX burners (LNB)/Separated Overfire Air (SOFA)), TREA7 (SNCR), TREA21 (Fabric Filter & FGD), and TREA22 ACI).
§ Revised the 0.015 lb/mmBtu front-half particulate matter limit to 0.012 lb/mmBtu as prescribed by permit No. 06100004-007 that stated ‘This limit becomes 0.012 lb/million Btu heat input 90 days after issuance of the MPCA Notice of Compliance letter indicating the test-measured Front-half Particulate Matter emission rate was less than or equal to 0.012 lb/mmBtu during the initial Front-half Particulate Matter performance test after installation of CE 030 and CE 031’ (now known as TREA21 and TREA22, respectively). The (post-control equipment change) August 11, 2016 initial performance test measured an average filterable PM emission rate of 0.0032 lb/mmBtu, as reported in a March 3, 2017 Notice of Compliance. Therefore, the 0.015 lb/mmBtu limit revision to 0.012 lb/mmBtu became effective June 1, 2017.
§ PM, PM10, PM2.5, and fluoride emissions testing requirements after completion of control equipment retrofit were revised to reflect completion of testing, and now require future repeat testing at 60-month intervals. The PM10, PM2.5, and fluorides tests were conducted on October 4, 2016, and filterable and condensable PM tests were conducted August 11, 2016 (as part of the annual PM testing required by the Consent Decree.)
§ Removed the completed requirement to establish the baseline Hg emission rate from the Hg monitoring data required by Minn. § 216B.681.
§ Removed the requirement for MPCA to incorporate a reasonably expected to be achieved Hg reduction due to the installation of TREA21 and TREA22 as required by Minn. Stat. § 216B.687. Additionally, the interim 1.20 E-06 lb/mmBtu limit was revised to 26.0 lb/yr on a 12-month rolling sum based on Minn. Stat. § 216B.687. Refer to Section 2.12 for additional information.
§ Added a requirement for submittal of a Hg Control Optimization Plan (based on Minn. R. 7007.0800, subp. 2(A)&(B)) to ensure optimal mercury emissions reduction by implementing the requirement at Minn. Stat. § 216B.687, subd. 3. This requirement was also added to the total facility requirement for submittal of an application for permit reissuance 180 days before permit expiration. Also added a requirement for conducting a Mercury Reduction Analysis, and submittal of the analysis results within 180 days after permit issuance.
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 12 of 70
§ Revised the Title I Condition fluorides limit by removing language indicating the limit isn’t applicable until installation of TREA21 and TREA22. Revised all other requirements that included applicability language contingent on startup of EQUI85 after installation of TREA21 and TREA22 because EQUI85 resumed operation on December 16, 2015 after installation of these controls.
§ Removed the requirement to report calendar year SO2 emissions and annual compliance certification based on Minn. R. 7021.0050 due to repeal of Minn. R. ch. 7021.
§ Revised the CO BACT limit as discussed under Section 3.4. Also added to the CO BACT limit a statement that the Permittee shall employ good combustion practices to meet the CO BACT limit.
§ Revised the requirement to vent EQUI85 emissions to TREA22 so that such is not required when EQUI85 combusts only natural gas, instead of when EQUI85 combusts only natural gas during startup.
§ Removed completed requirements for notification of Start of installation of TREA21 and TREA22, and, for EQUI85 startup after completion of TREA21 and TREA22 installation.
§ Removed requirements for submittal of filterable (also referred to as ‘front-half’) PM, PM10, PM2.5, and fluorides test frequency plans due to their completion. The PM test frequency trigger date was reset to 08/11/2021 due to the submittal of the revised (post-control equipment retrofit) PM test frequency plan based on August 11, 2016 PM testing. Also established filterable PM, PM10, PM2.5, and fluorides test frequencies (at 60-month intervals) based on results of October 4, 2016 testing. The filterable PM 60-month test frequency is for determining compliance with the Title I BACT/Title I modeling/NSPS subp. D 0.10 lb/mmBtu limit and not for determining compliance with the filterable PM limit from the 2014 Consent Decree (although the Consent Decree allows use of state required tests to meet the requirement of the annual Consent Decree-required filterable and condensable PM tests).
§ Removed the EQUI85 annual SO2 emissions report requirement imposed by permit No. 06100004-005. The annual report was due 60 calendar days after end of each calendar year after installation of NOX controls TREA6 and TREA7 (CE027 and CE028) authorized by permit No. 06100004-005. Reports submitted for calendar years 2012 through 2016 demonstrated that actual SO2 emissions increase did not exceed the projected increase determined by the actual to projected actual emissions analysis conducted for permit No. 06100004-005.
§ The 135°F minimum stack temperature and associated recordkeeping requirements were removed. These requirements were necessary when the previous EQUI85 control equipment (wet controls in the form of a venturi scrubber and spray tower) resulted in potential STRU14 temperatures below 135°F producing less than optimal emissions dispersion. To address this issue, EQUI85 controls were designed to accommodate a minor amount of EQUI85 flue gas routed through an electrostatic precipitator (ESP) instead of the venturi scrubber and spray tower, on an as-needed basis. The ESP exhaust gas was then routed to STRU14 and combined with the remainder of the EQUI85 exhaust gasses. Because the ESP didn’t overly reduce flue gas temperature (unlike the spray tower and venturi scrubber), the overall STRU14 exhaust temperature could be maintained at or above 135°F. However, the minimum temperature requirement was necessary to ensure the enough exhaust gas was vented to the ESP to ensure adequate emissions dispersion.
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 13 of 70
The current control equipment (semi-dry flue gas desulfurization and fabric filter) is not configured for this venting scenario; there is no longer an alternate partial flue gas venting option (unlike with the previous controls). Because the potential for reduced stack temperatures is no longer present the requirements are no longer applicable or warranted. Note that 2014 SO2 modeling was conducted with a STRU14 exhaust gas temperature of 158°F.
§ Removed the 0.030 lb/mmBtu heat input 365-day rolling average SO2 limit because it was a placeholder for (and replaced by) the Consent Decree 0.030 lb/mmBtu heat input 30-day rolling average SO2 limit.
· EQUI100
§ Removed completed requirements for submittal of a Hg emissions monitoring plan, a coal Hg content monitoring plan, and a plan for Hg control optimization.
§ The EQUI100 Hg CEMS (EQUI109) was installed to meet the requirements of Minn. R 7011.0561, subp. 5(A) and the STRU13 sorbent trap is used to monitor Hg in the EQUI82, EQUI83, and EQUI100 common stack to meet the requirements of the site-specific monitoring plan requirement at Section 63.10000(d)(1).
§ PER 003 added a Unit 3 hydrogen fluoride (HF) limit to avoid PSD major modification. However, ‘fluorides’ is the regulated PSD pollutant (not including HF; reference the NSR Reform rulemaking preamble discussion at Section 7 ‘Listed Hazardous Air Pollutants’ of FR Vol. 67 No. 251 pg. 80239; December 31, 2002).
§ Removed requirements for PM and CO stack testing while burning waste water treatment sludge and while burning oily materials because both materials are not permitted fuels, have not been determined to not be solid waste when combusted according to 40 CFR 241.3 or 40 CFR 241.4, and new updated requirements were added to COMG9 for test burns of non-permitted fuels.
§ Changed the 0.80E-06 lb/million Btu limit to a 10.0 lb/yr on a 12-month rolling sum basis limit as requested by the Permittee. Also revised the sentence regarding EQUI100 Hg requirements being state-only to more closely reflect the language at Minn. Stat. § 216B.687, subd. 2(a). Refer to Section 2.12 for additional information.
§ Revised the CO BACT limit as discussed under Section 3.4. Also added to the CO BACT limit a statement that the Permittee shall employ good combustion practices to meet the CO BACT limit.
§ Removed the following language from the requirement to vent EQUI100 emissions to the various EQUI100 control equipment:
‘The Permittee is not required to operate CE 029 (TREA22) when EU 003 (EQUI100) combusts only natural gas or when EU 003 combusts natural gas during startup. EU 003 start up operating mode for purposes of this CE 029 operating requirement is defined as when there are less than three EU 003 coal pulverizing mills in service. The Permittee shall maintain records of when EU 003 is operating with less than three mills in service.’
This language pre-dates the effective date of pt. 63, subp. UUUUU and removal of the language is warranted because pt. 63, subp. UUUUU requires use of clean fuels during startup and doesn’t provide an exemption to the subp. UUUUU 1.2 lb/TBtu mercury limit during startup. The language was replaced with:
‘The Permittee is not required to operate TREA28 when EQUI100 is not combusting any coal.’
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 14 of 70
§ Removed the 0.07 lb/mmBtu NOX limit (30-day rolling average; basis was Minn. R. 7007.0800, subp. 2) that was added to the permit by PER 003.
This limit was set to address anticipated Best Available Retrofit Technology (sometimes referred to as BART) requirements and was included in the Minnesota State Implementation Plan (SIP) December 31, 2009 SIP Revision submittal was sent to EPA. However, the MPCA intended to rely on the cap and trade features of the Clean Air Interstate Rule (CAIR) program instead of BART limits applicable to individual EGUs. Regardless, CAIR was remanded by the D.C. Circuit of the U.S. Court of Appeals in December 2008 and stayed in Minnesota in December 2009. This lead Minnesota to rely on the source-specific BART determinations at that time for the 2009 Regional Haze SIP. In October 2011, EPA finalized the CAIR replacement known as the Cross State Air Pollution Rule (CSAPR), which is a cap and trade rule similar to CAIR. In December 2011, EPA proposed a rule to allow CSAPR as an alternative to the source-specific BART determinations. In July 2012, EPA approved Minnesota’s proposal to implement CSPAR in place of BART for EGUs. Although CSAPR was subject to additional court challenges, the rule remains in place and the case-by-case BART determinations are not applicable.
Finally, the EQUI100 0.060 lb/mmBtu (30-day rolling average) Consent Decree NOX limit is more restrictive than the 0.07 lb/mmBtu NOX limit (30-day rolling average) removed by this permit action.
Revised the requirement to vent EQUI100 emissions to TREA28 so that such is not required when EQUI100 combusts only natural gas, instead of when EQUI100 combusts only natural gas during startup.
· EQUI97, EQUI98, and EQUI122 - Corrections were made to Fly Ash Silo A (EU 017/EQUI98) and Loadout Spout (EU 018/EQUI97) process flow/control equipment and associated subject items, including the addition of the Silo A fly ash ventilated annular loadout spout (EQUI122/EU042 installed without a permit in 2009) as a separate emission source. EQUI122 was not proposed in the PER003 application (permit that authorized the EQUI100 air pollution control retrofit resulting in the collection by the EQUI100 fabric filter (TREA9) of dry fly ash instead of wet ash (that was captured by the old EQUI100 wet particulate matter scrubber)).
· Revisions were made to fly ash and reagent handling equipment PM limits previously cited as both the Industrial Process Equipment Rule at Minn. R. 7011.0715 and Title I Condition to avoid major modification. The affected subject items are: EQUI5/EU019
Unit 3 Limestone Storage Silo; EQUI6/EU020 Unit 3 Limestone Day Bin 1; EQUI7/EU021 Unit 3 Limestone Day Bin 2; EQUI86/EU024 Unit 4 Lime Silo; EQUI87/EU025 Unit 4 Lime Day Bin A; EQUI88/EU026 Unit 4 Lime Day Bin B; EQUI89/EU027 Unit 4 Lime Day Bin C; EQUI90/EU028 Unit 4 Lime Day Bin D; EQUI91/EU029 Unit 4 Lime Day Bin E; EQUI93/EU031 Fly Ash Storage Silo B; EQUI94/EU032 Fly Ash Loadout B - Truck Bay; EQUI97/EU018 Fly Ash Loadout A - Truck Bay; EQUI98/EU017 Fly Ash Storage Silo A; EQUI99/EU015 Hg Additive Handling and Unit 3 PAC Silo Storage; and EQUI120/EU030 Unit 4 Activated Carbon Silo. These PM limits were split into two limits - one Title I PM limit to avoid PSD major modification, and a second PM limit from Minn. R. 7011.0715.
· EQUI106 – This STRU13 Hg sorbent trap monitoring system was installed to monitor EQUI82, EQUI83, and EQUI100 common stack STRU13 Hg emissions, and contains applicable requirements from pt. 63, subp. UUUUU, Appendix A. Common stack monitoring is permitted by subp. UUUUU as specified at Section 63.10010(a)(2)(ii).
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 15 of 70
As allowed by subp. UUUUU, the Permittee may use either EQUI106 or EQUI109 to monitor STRU13 mercury emissions before EQUI82 and EQUI83 shutdown, and may use either monitor to monitor EQUI100 mercury emissions after EQUI82 and EQUI83 shutdown.
· EQUI107 and EQUI108 (STRU13 and EQUI85 PM CEMS, respectively) requirements were added in response to the Permittee’s use of such CEMS to determine filterable particulate matter emissions compliance under pt. 63, subp. UUUUU, and the 2014 Consent Decree requirement to install PM CEMS. The Permittee established its use of the CEMS option for determining filterable PM compliance under pt. 63, subp. UUUUU in their site-specific monitoring plan required by Section 63.100000(d)(1).
· EQUI109 requirements were added requiring the use of either EQUI109 or EQUI106 to monitor STRU13 mercury emissions before EQUI82 and EQUI83 shutdown, and the missing data procedures during monitor downtime. After EQUI82 and EQUI83 shutdown, the Permittee may use either EQUI109 or EQUI106 to monitor EQUI100 mercury emissions, and during any EQUI109 outage may also use the EQUI106 sorbent trap mercury monitor as a backup or the missing data substitution requirements described immediately below under ‘EQUI109 and EQUI110’.
· EQUI109 and EQUI110 (Unit 3 and Unit 4 Hg CEMS formerly MR025 and MR026, respectively) – Part 75 Hg monitoring requirements were revised to reflect the March 28, 2011 federal register part 75 revisions (in response to the Clean Air Mercury Rule (CAMR) that was vacated by the D.C. Circuit in New Jersey v. EPA, 517 F.3d 574 (D.C. Cir. 2008)). The March 28, 2011 federal register announced the removal of the Hg monitoring provisions that supported CAMR. Specifically, portions of part 75 (subpart I; Section 75.80 – Section 75.84) dealing exclusively with Hg monitoring (CEMS and sorbent trap systems) were removed, and other sections that applied both to Hg monitoring systems and other types of CEMS were revised and re-promulgated, minus the references to Hg.
The current mercury monitoring requirements are those from part 63, subp. UUUUU, Appendix A, along with state requirements based on the vacated mercury CEMS portions of part 75. The state requirements are for determining missing data values during Hg CEMS downtime while Unit 3 and/or Unit 4 are operating and are necessary as part of the compliance determination for the Unit 3 and Unit 4 lb/yr Hg limit based on Minn. Stat. 216B.68 through Minn. Stat. 216B.688 for each unit. Refer to Section 2.12 for additional information.
· EQUI119 (Unit 4 Emergency Generator) was installed to replace the previous generator EU 010. Replacement of EU 010 with EQUI119 reduced emissions of all pollutants.
· STRU14 stack diameter and height were revised due to the following:
§ In the fall of 2015 during the EQUI85 shutdown for the control equipment retrofit, the 20.0-foot diameter stack mouth choke was removed increasing the stack diameter to 35.0 feet (2014 SO2 and PM2.5 modeling was conducted using the 35.0 foot STRU14 diameter (with addition modeling using the 20.0 foot diameter)).
§ In the fall of 2017, the stack height was increased from 600 feet to 616 feet, and the diameter reduced to 32.0 feet.
· TREA5, TREA6, TREA7, TREA8, TREA11, TREA12, TREA13, and TREA15 – Added requirements for operating and maintaining these NOX controls, using the associated NOX CEMS for CAM, and corrective actions if NOX CEMS measure an exceedance of a NOX emission limit.
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 16 of 70
· TREA9 (CE 021 EQUI100 Fabric Filter) – added control efficiency requirements for PM10 and PM2.5 because the emission calculations rely on these efficiencies for these pollutants. Revised PM and PM10 CAM by removing the opacity component, revising the pressure drop requirement from a maximum of 11.0 inches w.c. to a range of 2.0 – 11.0 inches w.c., and changing the averaging period from one-minute to a more appropriate one-hour period. Added a requirement specifying how the indicator values can be revised.
· TREA10 (CE022/EQUI100 Wet FGD; TREA10 controls SO2, fluorides, and HCl)
Added a 65% fluorides control efficiency requirement because this value was used to calculate fluorides emissions and EQUI100 fluorides emissions are subject to a limit to avoid a PSD major modification. Also added fluorides periodic monitoring requirements as discussed below.
Added a 97.1% HCl control efficiency requirement because TREA10 controls HCl and this value was used to calculate HCl emissions. Also added requirement for corrective action because the Permittee chose the MATS HCl compliance option (in lieu of the alternate SO2 compliance option).
· TREA14 and TREA16 (EQUI82 and EQUI83 Fabric Filters, respectively) – revised CAM from use of the COMS to pressure drop maximum and minimum and added a requirement for how these indicator values can be revised.
· TREA21 (CE030/EQUI85 semidry FGD/fabric filter; TREA21 controls SO2, fluorides, HCl, PM, PM10, and PM2.5)
The 90% fluorides control efficiency citation was revised by adding ‘Title I to avoid major modification under 40 CFR 52.21(b)(2)(i)’ because Unit 4 fluorides emissions are subject to a limit to avoid a PSD major modification.
Added a 97.1% HCl control efficiency requirement because TREA21 controls HCl and this value was used to calculate HCl emissions. Also added requirement for corrective actions if the Permittee chooses the MATS HCl compliance option (in lieu of the Permittee’s chosen SO2 compliance option).
The PM Compliance Assurance Monitoring (CAM) interim plan was revised from use of the continuous opacity monitor and TREA21 fabric filter pressure drop, to the use of only TREA21 fabric filter pressure differential. In addition, the plan also applies to PM10 and PM2.5, and the pressure drop range was revised from 2.0 – 20.0 inches w.c. to 4.0 – 18.0 inches w.c. based on actual observed pressure drop values. Also, fluorides CAM (use of SO2 CEMS data) was added to the permit. Added a requirement for how the indicator values can be revised. Finally, requirements to submit an updated PM CAM plan, and proposed CAM for PM10, PM2.5, and fluorides after installation of TREA21 and TREA22 were removed.
· FUIG1 and FUGI2 – added the PM limit from the industrial process equipment rule at Minn. R. 7011.0715 for these two cooling towers.
· FUGI3 (FS004) requirements to install pavement on the ash haul road and submit a notice of completion of pavement installation were completed so these requirements were removed. The remaining two requirements for controlling ash haul road dust and related recordkeeping were also removed because they no longer apply due to pavement installation on the fly ash haul road. The paved fly ash haul road is now included under and subject to the requirements of FUGI10 (Paved Haul Roads) as well as the Fugitive Dust Control Plan. A new requirement was added to FUGI3 for controlling unpaved road dust using best management practices.
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 17 of 70
· FUGI9 (FS001) – a requirement was added to limit the uncrusted coal stockpile working area to a maximum of 20 acres (to restrict the fugitive particulate matter emissions increase from wind erosion of the increased stockpile working area due to the 2015 coal stockpile expansion project). This requirement is based on the use of 20 acres in the updated PM emission calculations for this permit reissuance (as opposed to the 50 acre value used in the 2015 application) compared to the pre-modification 14 acre working area.
The acreage limit is not a title I requirement to avoid a major modification because the coal stockpile is a modified existing source whose emission changes were determined on an actual-to-projected-actual basis. Based on a 2011 EPA memorandum to the Semiconductor Industry Association, projected actual emissions can be calculated using design and operational parameters, and the effect of pollution control equipment regardless if they are legally enforceable. Uncrusted working area is an operational parameter and the limit on the working area was not and did not need to be legally enforceable when the projected actual emissions were determined. Therefore the 20 acre limit is a state requirement and not a title I requirement. (See August 26, 2011 EPA memorandum from Stephen D. Page to David Isaacs/Semiconductor Industry Association at https://www.epa.gov/sites/production/files/2015-07/documents/semiconpsd.pdf).
· FUGI11 (FS006) Coal Stockpile Material Handling Including Segment For Coal Stockpile Material Handling Using Portable Conveyors Title I (to avoid major modification) requirements were added for the new portable conveyors to reflect the following assumptions in the 2015 minor amendment application (as updated in the 2016 updated title V reissuance application):
§ A 450 ton-per-hour portable coal conveyor handling limit; § Maximum of 11 conveyor drop points for the coal stockpile (unenclosed/
uncontrolled) portable conveyors;
§ Minimum 20% by weight coal moisture content for coal handled by the portable conveyors;
§ Maximum 20 mph hourly wind speed during coal handling by portable conveyors. · Appendix C Modeling Parameters – except for CO modeled parameters, pre-2014
modeling parameters were removed and 2014 SO2 modeling parameters were added. The pre-2010 parameters (other than for CO) are no longer accurate or relevant due to removal of certain equipment, modeling policy changes (i.e., emergency generators are no longer included in modeling providing the Permittee implements best management practices for the units), reductions in EGU emission rates, and inaccuracies in some of the pre-2014 modeling parameters.
2. Regulatory and/or statutory basis of permit requirements
2.1 New Source Review (NSR)
The facility is an existing major NSR source. In addition, Unit 4 construction occurred in the late 1970’s and is subject to PSD. A 1977 EPA-issued PSD construction permit authorized the construction of this boiler. NOX reduction modifications were made to EQUI85 and EQU100 in 2010 and 2007, respectively, and CO emission increases from those projects were subject to PSD permitting. The CO BACT determinations for both EGUs are revised by this permit action as discussed under Section 3.4 of this TSD.
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 18 of 70
2.2 Part 70 Permit Program
The facility is a major source under the Part 70 permit program. This permit action does not change this status.
2.3 New Source Performance Standards (NSPS)
a. Part 60, Subpart D - Unit 4 is subject to pt. 60, subp. D Standards of Performance for Fossil-Fuel-Fired Steam Generators because the Permittee commenced construction of Unit 4 in January 1978 (as authorized by EPA permit No. EPA-5-77-A-6 issued June 16, 1977) which is after the August 17, 1971 commence construction subp. D applicability date, but before the September 18, 1978 commence construction subp. Da applicability date.
b. Part 60, Subpart IIII - The three emergency reciprocating internal combustion engines (RICE; EQUI23, EQUI81, and EQUI119) are subject to pt. 60, subp. IIII Standards of Performance for Stationary Compression Ignition Internal Combustion Engines.
EQUI23 is the Unit 3 Emergency Generator (a diesel fuel-fired compression ignition (CI) engine rated at 398 hp/250 kW manufactured and constructed in 2012). EQUI81 is the Unit 3 Air Pollution Control Equipment Emergency Generator (a diesel fuel-fired CI engine rated at 480 hp/300 kW manufactured and constructed in 2009). EQUI119 is the Unit 4 Emergency Generator (a diesel fuel-fired CI engine rated at 2206 hp/1500 kW manufactured and constructed in 2015).
40 CFR 60.4200(a)(2)(i) states the Permittee is subject to part 60, subp. IIII because it owns and operates EQUI23, EQUI81, and EQUI119 and construction of these RICE commenced after July 11, 2005, the RICE were manufactured after April 1, 2006, and none of the RICE are fire pump engines. In addition, the Permittee does not qualify for the applicability exclusion at 40 CFR 60.4200(b) because none of the RICE are tested at a test cell/stand.
c. Part 60, Subpart Y - The increase in coal storage and handling as proposed by a 2015 minor permit amendment application are subject to pt. 60, subp. Y Standards of Performance for Coal Preparation and Processing Plants. 40 CFR 60.254(c) states the storage pile affected facility includes the equipment used in the loading, unloading, and conveying operations of the affected facility. Therefore the affected sources are:
i. Coal Stockpile - Wind Erosion (FUGI9/FS001); and,
ii. Coal Stockpile Material Handling Including Segment For Coal Stockpile Material Handling Using Portable Conveyors (FUGI11/FS006).
2.4 National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP)
The facility is an existing major source of HAPs and is subject to two NESHAPs.
a. Part 63, Subpart UUUUU - The four EGUs at the facility are coal-fired electric utility steam generating units that collectively comprise an affected source subject to pt. 63, subp. UUUUU ‘National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Coal- and Oil-Fired Electric Utility Steam Generating Units’ (refer to 40 CFR 63.9982(a)(1)). Subpart UUUUU is frequently referred to as the Mercury and Air Toxics Standards or ‘MATS’.
The four EGUs are existing EGUs because construction of all began on or before May 3, 2011, and none were reconstructed after May 3, 2011. The initial compliance date for existing EGUs is April 16, 2015. The agency issued a January 28, 2013 letter to the Permittee authorizing a one-year extension for EQUI85 to the April 16, 2015 compliance
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 19 of 70
date to accommodate the EQUI85 control equipment replacement project. Each EGU is equipped with a neural network.
As stated in permit Appendix H, the Permittee has selected the following compliance options:
1. Units 1-3:
a. PM on a lb/mmBtu basis measured by STRU13 PM CEMS; b. HCl on a lb/mmBtu heat input basis with emissions measured by EPA
Reference Method 26A; c. Hg on a lb/TBtu basis measure by the STRU13 Hg sorbent sampler
CEMS.
2. Unit 4:
a. PM on a lb/mmBtu basis measured by STRU14 PM CEMS; b. SO2 on a lb/mmBtu basis measured by STRU14 SO2 CEMS; c. Hg on a lb/TBtu basis measure by the STRU14 Hg CEMS.
Additionally, the Permittee has elected to implement Startup definition paragraph (1) at § 63.10042.
If the Permittee elects to change to another compliance option(s), the Permittee is required by § 63.10030(e) to submit a revised Notice of Compliance Status indicating such changes. The Permittee will not employ emissions averaging. EQUI82, EQUI83, and EQUI100 qualify as low emitting EGUs (LEE) according to § 63.10005(h).
b. Part 63, Subpart ZZZZ - The three emergency engines (EQUI23, EQUI81, and EQUI119) are subject to pt. 63, subp. ZZZZ National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Stationary Reciprocating Internal Combustion Engines. Refer to Section 2.3.b for engine horsepower, manufacturing date, and construction date information for these RICE.
According to 40 CFR 63.6590(a)(2)(ii), EQUI23 and EQUI81 are stationary RICE subject to 40 CFR pt. 63, subp. ZZZZ because both have a site rating of equal to or less than 500 brake HP, are located at a major source of HAP emissions, and the Permittee commenced construction of EQUI23 and EQUI81 on or after June 12, 2006. However, although both RICE are subject to 40 CFR part 63, subp. ZZZZ, they are regulated by NSPS subpart IIII according to 40 CFR 63.6590(c)(7).
According to 40 CFR 63.6590(a)(2)(i), EQUI119 is subject to subp. ZZZZ because it has a site rating of greater than 500 brake HP, is located at a major source of HAP emissions, and the Permittee commenced construction of EQUI119 on or after December 19, 2002. However, according to 40 CFR 63.6600(c), the Permittee is not subject to emission limitations in Table 2a or operating limitations in Table 2b in pt. 63, subp. ZZZZ.
2.5 Acid Rain Program
The boilers (EQUI82, EQUI83, EQUI100, and EQUI85) are subject to SO2 and NOX Acid Rain requirements. The Permittee is required to monitor and maintain records of SO2, NOX, CO2, and opacity emissions, maintain SO2 emission allowances, and comply with applicable NOX limits. This permit includes an update NOX compliance plan (Appendix B), and the Permittee has elected to no longer use the NOX averaging provisions at 40 CFR 76.11.
2.6 Transport Rule/CSAPR
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 20 of 70
The four EGUs are subject to the part 97 Transport Rule (also known as the Cross-State Air Pollution Rule or CSAPR) requirements for the NOX Annual Trading Program (subpart AAAAA) and the SO2 Group 2 Trading Program (subpart DDDDD).
This permit incorporates the requirements of 40 CFR part 97 subps. AAAAA and DDDDD. EPA issued a memorandum on May 13, 2015 to provide guidance to the regions and states on incorporating CSAPR requirements into Title V permits. The guidance included a template for use in permits, and that template is located in permit Appendix G.
All CSAPR requirements incorporated into this permit adhere to EPA’s guidance and template, with one exception. The permit does not include requirements from 40 CFR Section 97.406(d) and 40 CFR Section 97.706(d) regarding revision of part 97 monitoring requirements. Sections 97.406(d) and 97.706(d) were not included because they refer to the permit modifications procedures under part 70 that a Permittee may use to make changes to the monitoring provisions table in the permit. However, in Minnesota, changes to the part 97 monitoring requirements must be made according to the requirements of Minn. R. 7007.1150 through Minn. R. 7007.1500.
2.7 Data Requirements Rule (DRR; 40 CFR part 51, subp. BB; §§ 51.1200 – 51.1205)
The MPCA submitted the 2014 facility 1-hour SO2 modeling results to EPA for demonstrating compliance with the EPA SO2 Data Requirements Rule. MPCA had originally intended to re-issue this permit with incorporated modeled 1-hour SO2 emission rates as hourly emission limits, but this permitting action was not complete (nor the limits effective) by the DRR January 13, 2017 deadline.
In order to meet the January 13, 2017 deadline, the MPCA relied on the federally enforceable Consent Decree SO2 emission limits (instead of using future not-yet-enforceable permit limits equal to the modeled 1-hour SO2 emission rates) to ensure compliance with the 2010 SO2 NAAQS.
The Consent Decree SO2 limits are 30-day rolling average limits, in pounds of SO2 per million Btu, but are as stringent, or more, than the one-hour pound per hour SO2 emission rates that demonstrated modeled compliance with the 1-hour SO2 NAAQS. To demonstrate the Consent Decree limits are as stringent, or more, than the emission rates modeled in 2014, the MPCA used the following method:
i. The Consent Decree limits (pounds per million Btu 30-day rolling average) were converted to lb/hr 30-day average limits, using the heat rate input capacity for the EGUs.
ii. The MPCA used the methodology provided in EPA’s April 2014 “Guidance for 1-Hour SO2 Nonattainment Area SIP Submissions,” to convert the NAAQS-compliant modeled lb/hr emission rate to a comparably stringent lb/hr 30-day average limit. The conversion used the conservatively calculated adjustment factors EPA provided in Appendix D of its April 2014 guidance (the average ratio of 99th percentile 30-day average SO2 emission value to the 99th percentile of hourly SO2 emission value).
iii. The MPCA then compared the comparably stringent (modeled) 30-day emission rates to the 30-day Consent Decree limits (converted to lb/hr) and demonstrated the Consent Decree limits are equal to or less than the modeled limits, thereby ensuring that the federally enforceable Consent Decree limits provide for NAAQS attainment. The equivalent STRU13 30-day rolling average lb/hr Consent Decree limit is 1522 lb/hr compared to an equivalent 30-day rolling average NAAQS-compliant modeled SO2 emission rate of 3484 lb/hr. The equivalent STRU14 30-day
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 21 of 70
rolling average lb/hr Consent Decree limit is 204 lb/hr compared to an equivalent NAAQS-compliant modeled SO2 emission rate of 1638 lb/hr.
2.8 Compliance Assurance Monitoring (CAM)
CAM applicability is determined on a pollutant-by-pollutant basis for each “pollutant specific emissions unit,” (PSEU) as defined at 40 CFR § 64.1. CAM applies to a unit that meets the following conditions:
· The unit is subject to an emission limitation or standard for the applicable regulated air pollutant (or a surrogate thereof), other than an emission limitation or standard that is exempt under § 64.2(b)(1);
· The unit uses a control device to achieve compliance with any such emission limitation or standard; and,
· The unit has potential pre-control device emissions of the applicable regulated air pollutant that are equal to or greater than 100 percent of the amount (in tons per year) required for the unit to be classified as a major source.
Table 6 below lists the emission sources and pollutants subject to CAM, whether the source is a Large or Other PSEU, and the monitoring for the applicable pollutants. CAM plans are in Attachment 6.

For Large PSEUs (in the context of § 64.5(a)), the Permittee must collect four or more data values equally spaced over each hour. For Other PSEUs (in the context of § 64.5(b)), one monitored parameter record is required each 24 hours. Although EQUI82 and EQUI83 are Other filterable PM PSEUs, the Permittee has elected to monitor the EQUI82 and EQUI83 fabric filter (TREA16 and TREA14) pressure drop four times per hour to generate 1-hour average pressure drop values for each fabric filter. CAM Plans are located in Attachment 5.
EQUI85 fluorides CAM is based on TREA21 (Fabric Filter and Semi-Dry Flue Gas Desulfurization) controlling both SO2 and fluorides, and the results of fluorides emissions testing and concurrent SO2 CEMS data demonstrating that SO2 is worst case compared to fluorides.
CAM does not apply to the modeling-based common stack STRU13 SO2 4450 lb/hr (1-hour average) limit because CAM doesn’t apply to a stack. Also, only EQUI100 SO2 emissions are controlled by an SO2 control device (EQUI82 and EQUI83 that also vent through STRU13 are
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 23 of 70
not equipped with SO2 control equipment), and CAM is already specified for EQUI100 SO2 emissions as shown in the table above.
Note that EQUI100 fluorides emissions are not subject to CAM (but are subject to periodic monitoring as discussed in Table 15) but were included by Permittee in their CAM plan submittals because initial emission calculations indicated uncontrolled fluorides would exceed the 100 tpy major source threshold.
In addition, the EQUI85 and EQUI100 flue gas desulfurization equipment (TREA21 and TREA10, respectively) also controls HCl, these emissions are subject to the MATS HCl limit, and controlled emissions exceed the 10 tpy major source threshold. However, EQUI85 and EQUI100 HCl emissions are not subject to CAM because the MATS is an emission limitation exempt from CAM under § 64.2(b)(1)(i).
Resetting the TREA9, TREA14, TREA16, or TREA21 fabric filter pressure drop range can not be made through the values recorded during a single particulate matter performance test. This is due to the fact that the CAM pressure drop range was established through review of the differential pressure experienced over one or more months of bag filter operation, and not from the short term variation experienced during a single performance test.
2.9 Environmental Review and Air Emissions Risk Analysis
None of the changes authorized by this permit trigger requirements for environmental review or an Air Emissions Risk Analysis.
2.10 2014 Consent Decree
The Permittee entered into a Consent Decree (CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 filed on July 16, 2014 and signed by the Judge of the U.S. District Court for Minnesota on September 29, 2014) with the US EPA and MPCA. The Consent Decree (Attachment 6 to this document) imposes PM, SO2, and NOX limits that reduce allowable emissions of these pollutants. As stated at paragraph 210, the Consent Decree requirements and limitations are applicable requirements as defined at 40 CFR § 70.2.
The Consent Decree also requires refueling, retirement, or repowering of Units 1 and 2 no later than December 31, 2018 (the Permittee submitted a December 19, 2016 notification indicating these units will be shut down by December 31, 2018) as well as various other requirements related to SO2 and NOX allowances, monitoring (including submittal of updated Compliance Assurance Monitoring Plans for PM emissions from each EGU), stack testing, control equipment operation, and netting credits. Also, EPA has indicated (through electronic mail communication on February 23, 2016 included as Attachment 8 to this technical support document) that if the Permittee meets requirements for filterable PM testing every other calendar year (instead of every calendar year), then the Permittee may test condensable PM emissions every other calendar year (refer to Attachment 8). Most applicable Consent Decree definitions are located in permit Appendix F.
The Consent Decree allows PM testing every other year if certain conditions are met. Appendix K contains an email from EPA to the Permittee clarifying that boilers that qualify for every other year filterable PM testing are also eligible to test condensable PM every other year instead of every year.
2.11 Minnesota Rule 7011.0561 Control of Mercury from Electric Generating Units
The four electric utility boilers are subject to Minn. R. 7011.0561 because the boilers do not qualify for the exemption at Minn. R. 7011.0561, subp. 3. Also, Minn. R. 7011.0561, subp. 4,
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 24 of 70
states that unless the commissioner establishes an alternative mercury emissions reduction under Minn. Stat. § 216B.687, subd. 3, the EGUs are subject to Minn. R. 7011.0561.
Minn. Stat. § 216B.687, subd. 3 applies to units already subject to a limit established through the MERA when the unit’s operating permit is undergoing reissuance and mercury reduction optimization is reviewed to determine if additional reductions are feasible; EQUI85 is not yet subject to an already-established MERA limit. The specific reference only to subd. 3 at Minn. R. 7011.0561, subp. 4 was an oversight in the rule drafting process because the commissioner can establish a mercury limit at both Minn. Stat. § 216B.687, subd. 2(b) as well as at subd. 3. The agency is in the process of revising Minn. R. 7011.0561, subp. 4 so that it references all of Minn. Stat. § 216B.687, instead of only subd. 3. In the interim, the COMG9 requirement for 90% mercury control or limit mercury to 0.8 lb/TBtu citation includes ‘Minn. R. 7007.0800, subp. 2(A)&(B)’ to provide the agency authority to extend the exemption at Minn. R. 7011.0561, subp. 4 to EQUI85.
EQUI100 and EQUI85 are subject to limits established by the commissioner (10.0 lb/yr and 26.0 lb/yr both on a 12-month rolling sum basis, for EQUI100 and EQUI85, respectively) pursuant to Minn. Stat. § 216B.687, subd. 3 and 2(b), respectively. Additionally, both EQUI100 and EQUI85 have nameplate capacities greater than of 100 MW. Therefore, the limit options at Minn. R. 7011.0561, subp. 4(A) do not apply to EQUI100 and EQUI85.
EQUI82 and EQUI83 are not supplemental units (as defined at Minn. Stat. § 216B.6851, subd. 2) and each has a nameplate capacity of less than or equal to 100 MW, so these units would be subject to the limit options at Minn. R. 7011.0561, subp. 4(B). However, both EGUs will be shutdown by the end of 2018, which predates the January 1, 2025 Hg limit applicability date (at Minn. R. 7011.0561, subp. 4(B)) for these two EGUs.
2.12 Minnesota Statute Sections 216B.68 – 216B.688 Mercury Emissions Reduction Act (MERA)
The Minnesota Mercury Emissions Reductions Act (MERA) requires public utilities that own and operate targeted units (Minn. Stat. § 216B.68, subd. 8) at a qualifying facility (Minn. Stat. § 216B.68, subd. 6) to monitor mercury emissions, submit mercury reduction plans to the Public Utilities Commission (PUC) for employing technology most likely to achieve 90% mercury reduction, and to optimize operation of mercury controls for such units. The MERA also provides the Permittee the option to include one or more supplemental units (Minn. Stat. § 216B.6851, subd. 2) in any submitted MERA plan, whereby such units would be subject to the MERA, and to seek approval from the PUC for cost recovery.
Boswell Energy Center is a qualifying facility because it had a total net dependable capacity in excess of 500 megawatts as of January 1, 2006. EQUI85 and EQUI100 are targeted units subject to Minn. Stat. §§ 216B.68 – 216B.688 because each unit is greater than 100 megawatts, and the units are located at a qualifying facility.
EQUI82 and EQUI83 are neither targeted units (both EQUI82 and EQUI83 individual electrical output does not exceed 100 MW; Minn. Stat. § 216B.68, subd. 8) or supplemental units (because neither EQUI82 or EQUI83 were part of a mercury emissions-reduction plan under the MERA; Minn. Stat. § 216B.6851, subd. 2). Therefore, EQUI82 and EQUI83 are not subject to Minn. Stat. §§ 216B.68 – 216B.688.
For EQUI85 and EQUI100, the Permittee has the option of complying with the mercury reduction plan requirements at either Minn. Stat. § 216B.682 or Minn. Stat. § 216B.6851. The Permittee elected to comply with Minn. Stat. § 216B.6851, and submitted a reduction plan for each EGU to the Department of Commerce Public Utilities Commission (PUC). The EQUI100 plan was submitted October 27, 2006 and the PUC issued the Order approving the plan and cost recovery on October 26, 2007. The EQUI85 plan was submitted August 31,
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 25 of 70
2012 and the PUC issued the Order approving the plan and cost recovery on November 5, 2013. Both plans indicated mercury reductions would approach or attain 90%.
The EQUI100 plan indicated baseline mercury emissions were 100 pounds per year, and the proposed control equipment would reduce emissions by 90% to 10 pounds per year. The EQUI85 plan indicated baseline mercury emissions were 228 pounds per year, and the proposed control equipment would reduce emissions by 89% to 26 pounds per year.
PER003 (issued March 2007) authorized installation of EQUI100 control equipment to reduce multiple pollutants, including mercury. PER003 also required installation of Hg CEMS on EQUI100 and EQUI85 and monitoring of Hg emissions from these EGUs, and establishment of the baseline Hg emission rate for each EGU.
PER007 (issued June 2013) added an EQUI100 0.80E-06 lb/mmBtu (0.80 lb/TBtu) ‘first stage’ Hg limit based on the agency’s 2011 statistical analysis of EQUI100 Hg CEMS data. A requirement (the ‘Existing Monitoring Plan For Mercury Emissions’) for determining the Hg emissions rate using the EQUI100 Hg CEMS (EQUI109) was also added, along with requirements for submittal of a EQUI100 coal mercury content plan and an updated mercury emissions monitoring plan. PER007 authorized installation of EQUI85 mercury controls, required operation of those mercury controls, added an interim EQUI85 1.2E-06 lb/mmBtu mercury emission limit, and retained the PER003 requirement to establish the EQUI85 baseline mercury emissions rate.
EQUI85 PER008 Changes:
· The PER007 EQUI85 interim 1.2E-06 lb/mmBtu mercury limit has been replaced with a 26.0 lb/yr on a 12-month rolling sum basis limit as requested by the Permittee.
· The requirement to establish Hg baseline emission rate required by Minn. Stat. § 216B.681 is removed. This requirement was imposed by the 2007 PER003 and required at least six months of monitoring data to determine the pre-control Hg emission rate.
· Added a requirement for submittal of a coal Hg monitoring plan for daily sampling, and weekly analysis of composite samples from the daily samples. Coal Hg content data is necessary (along with Hg CEMS data) to determine the relationship between coal mercury content and stack mercury emissions, and to demonstrate that mercury reduction optimization required by Minn. Stat. § 216B.687, subd. 3 is occurring. An option to request cessation of such monitoring upon demonstration that sufficient data has been collected to demonstrate the level of Hg control efficiency and that optimization has occurred, has also been added.
· A requirement to submit a Hg controls optimization plan with the application for permit reissuance has been added.
EQUI100 PER008 Changes:
· The requirements for submittal of EQUI100 plans for Hg emissions monitoring and coal Hg content monitoring were completed and removed from PER008.
· The first stage 0.80E-06 lb/mmBtu limit has been replaced with a 10.0 lb/yr on a 12-month rolling sum basis limit as requested by the Permittee. Also, as shown in Figure 1, coal mercury content data coupled with EQUI100 Hg CEMS data demonstrate optimization of EQUI100 mercury controls due to ongoing mercury reductions of at least 90%. In addition, as part of optimization of mercury reduction and avoid to excessive use of activated carbon, the Permittee incorporated a logic feedback loop between TREA28 (the EQUI100 carbon injection system) and EQUI109
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 26 of 70
(the EQUI100 Hg CEMS). Comparison of coal mercury content and outlet emissions are shown in Figure 2. Mercury emissions monitoring suggests that outlet mercury emissions are related more strongly to the operation of air pollution controls rather than coal mercury content. Coal mercury content measurement is thus no longer required.

Additional requirements were also added to the EQUI85 and EQUI100 Hg CEMS (subject
items EQUI110 and EQUI109, respectively) for deriving missing Hg CEMS data when the units are operating but the CEMS are not operating or are out-of-control (as defined at § 72.2). These requirements are based on the former requirements of 40 CFR § 75.38 [as amended at 73 FR 4349, Jan. 24, 2008], Section 2.1.7 of Appendix A to 40 CFR pt. 75 [as amended at 73 FR 4363, Jan. 24, 2008], Table 1 of 40 CFR § 75.33 [as amended at 73 FR 4346, Jan. 24, 2008] and the current requirements of 40 CFR § 75.33(b)(1)-(4) [as amended at 76 FR 17311, Mar. 28, 2011].
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 28 of 70
The requirements formerly in part 75 were repealed on March 28, 2011 due to the DC Circuit Court vacating the Clean Air Mercury Rule (CAMR) in 2008 (as referenced in the discussion in this document at Section 1.6 under EQUI109 and EQUI110). Although these CAMR requirements were vacated, they were not vacated due to errors in the requirements, but were vacated because the program they supported was vacated. Therefore these requirements are reasonable to use as the basis for the missing data substitution requirement in this permit action that are needed for determining compliance with the pound per year EQUI85 and EQUI100 Hg emission limits.
2.13 Environmental Justice
Environmental Justice (EJ) is the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all people regardless of race, color, national origin, or income with respect to the development, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies. EPA has this goal for all communities and persons across the U.S.A. It will be achieved when everyone enjoys the same degree of protection from environmental and health hazards and equal access to the decision-making process to have a healthy environment in which to live, learn, and work.
As part of this permitting process, the MPCA contacts US E.P.A. Region 5 staff to verify if there are any possible EJ issues for the facility location that need to be addressed in the permit action. For this project, MPCA staff contacted EPA Region 5 staff who used the draft Environmental Justice Strategic Enforcement Assessment Tool (EJSEAT) to determine that EJ concerns were unlikely for the Minnesota Power – Boswell Energy Center location.
2.14 Minnesota State Rules
Portions of the facility are subject to the following Minnesota Standards of Performance:
· Minn. R. 7011.0510 Standards of Performance for Existing Indirect Heating Equipment
· Minn. R. 7011.0561 Control of Mercury From Electric Generating Units · Minn. R. 7011.0710 Standards of Performance for Pre-1969 Industrial Process
Equipment · Minn. R. 7011.0715 Standards of Performance for Post-1969 Industrial Process
Equipment · Minn. R. 7011.2300 Standards of Performance for Stationary Internal Combustion
Engines
Also, an air pollution control equipment operating requirement based on Minn. R. 7007.0800, subp. 16(J) is used throughout the permit. This requirement (shown below) is not a revision of subp. 16(J) (shown further below) but is a requirement based on subp. 16(J) and subp. 2(B) that requires operation of all control equipment whether or not the permit requires such, to protect human health and the environment. The requirement citation includes Minn. R. 7007.0800, subp. 2(B) in reflection of this.
The permit requirement based on subp. 16(J) and subp. 2(B) says:
Air Pollution Control Equipment: Operate all pollution control equipment whenever the corresponding process equipment and emission units are operated.
Minn. R. 7007.0800, subp. 16(J) says:
(J) The permittee shall at all times properly operate and maintain the facilities and systems of treatment and control and the appurtenances
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 29 of 70
related to them which are installed or used by the permittee to achieve compliance with the conditions of the permit. Proper operation and maintenance includes effective performance, adequate funding, adequate operator staffing and training, and adequate laboratory and process controls, including appropriate quality assurance procedures.
The rule at subp. 16(J) is not used verbatim in the permit because the rule language could preclude agency enforcement action for failure to operate control equipment installed without a permit but where such control equipment operation is necessary to meet applicable requirement and protect human health and the environment. This control equipment operating requirement has been used in title V permits for more than the past twenty years ago to address this issue. Table 7. Regulatory overview of facility

3. Technical information
3.1 Emission Calculations
Attachment 1 is the GI-07 form and Facility PTE calculations. Attachment 2 is the coal stockpile expansion project emissions calculation spreadsheet.
The Table 3 unlimited emissions increase for new portable conveyors was calculated using the same inputs listed in the Attachment 2 "Input Summary" worksheet except the 20% moisture content was replaced by the 17.8% geometric mean moisture content from AP-42 table 11.9-3 for coal loading, to calculate unlimited PTE. This moisture content is a reasonable worst-case moisture subbituminous coal content and demonstrates that the coal stockpile expansion project needed limits to avoid a PSD major modification for PM emissions.
Note that the MATS provides multiple emission limit options. For EQUI82 and EQUI83 SO2 limited emissions, the (most restrictive) MATS 0.20 pounds per million Btu heat input SO2 limit option was not used to calculated limited SO2 because the Permittee elected to comply with the HCl emission limit option for these units. As a result, Units 1 and 2 limited SO2 emissions are based on the most stringent applicable SO2 limit of 0.700 pounds per million Btu heat input (from the Consent Decree).
3.2 Dispersion modeling
a. Revisions of COMG1 SO2 Modeling-Based Limits Based On Review of 1987-1988 Facility SO2 Modeling
The COMG1 1-hour SO2 limits and citations were revised based on October 19, 1987 and January 13, 1988 Air Quality Division memoranda from Dennis Becker to J. David Thornton. The memoranda are a review of SO2 modeling and state the following in part:
“Current MP – Clay Boswell emission limitations are: Emission limitation of 4.00 #SO2/MMBTU for units 1-2 Emission limitation of 4.00 #SO2/MMBTU for unit 3 Emission limitation of 1.20 #SO2/MMBTU for unit 4…
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 40 of 70
Dispersion modeling for MP – Clay Boswell’s primary configuration was performed to determine compliance with Minnesota and National Ambient Air Quality Standards (i.e., MAAQS and NAAQS) for sulfur dioxide as required per USEPA Stack Height Regulations (40 CFR Part 51). It reflects U.S. EPA Good Engineering Practice (GEP) stack parameters (i.e., units 1-3 at 667.50 feet versus 700 feet) for federal purposes and actual stack parameters for state purposes.
Model results indicate no SO2 emission reductions are necessary when units 1-3 are vented through the common stack using GEP stack parameters. However, model results do indicate SO2 emission reductions are necessary to meet the state 1-hour standard when units 3 and 4 are online and units 1&2 are not operating…
Below are three possible solutions which will bring MP – Clay Boswell into modeled compliance with Minnesota’s 1-hour ambient sulfur dioxide standard when units 1&2 are not operational…
1) unit 3 at 3.52 #SO2/mmBtu and unit 4 at 1.20 #SO2/mmBtu, or 2) unit 3 at 4.00 #SO2/mmBtu and unit 4 at 0.88 #SO2/mmBtu, or 3) unit 3 at 3.67 #SO2/mmBtu and unit 4 at 1.10 #SO2/mmBtu...
…MP – Clay Boswell units 1 and 2 (when) vented through the 250 foot stack requires a 70.32 percent emission reduction to meet the SO2 NAAQS with GEP stack parameters at unit 3. Additionally, MP – Boswell unit 3 requires a 25.68 percent to meet SO2 MAAQS with actual stack parameters at unit 3. Therefore, required MP – Clay Boswell (ALTERNATE CONFIGURATION) emission limitations are:
Emission limitation of 1.18 #SO2/MMBTU for units 1-2 Emission limitation of 2.97 #SO2/MMBTU for unit 3 Emission limitation of 1.20 #SO2/MMBTU for unit 4.”
The SO2 ambient air quality standards effective during this 1987-1988 modeling exercise are shown in Table 8 below.

Based on this memorandum, it is evident that:
i. The 1.18 lb/mmBtu SO2 Unit 1 and Unit 2 limits are necessary to protect the ‘SO2 NAAQS’ when venting in the Alternate Configuration (EQUI82 and EQUI83 operating and venting through STRU12, EQUI100 operating and venting through STRU13 at the Good Engineering Practice (GEP) 667.50 foot height and EQUI85 operating).
ii. The ‘SO2 NAAQS’ is the 3-hour NAAQS because a 1-hour SO2 NAAQS was not promulgated until 2010.
iii. The 1.18 lb/mmBtu EQUI82 and EQUI83 limits are necessary to meet the 1-hour SO2 MAAQS because Unit 3 SO2 must be restricted to 2.97 lb/mmBtu in order to meet the 1-hour MAAQS when Units 1 and 2 vent through STRU12.

b. 2014 SO2 and PM2.5 Modeling
Due to comments received during the public comment period for permit No. 06100004-007, the MPCA added a requirement to the permit for conducting modeling for the 1-hour SO2 NAAQS and 24-hr PM2.5 NAAQS. The results of that exercise are summarized in Table 10 below.
Table 10. 2014 Modeling Results

The SO2 modeling results were close to the NAAQS resulting in inclusion of the modeled SO2 emission rates (4450 lb/hr for STRU13 and 2600 lb/hr for STRU14) as 1-hour permit
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 42 of 70
limits in the permit (in COMG1). (Refer to Table 11 for comparison of the 30-day rolling average emissions as limited by the Consent Decree to the modeled lb/hr emission rates.) However, MPCA review of the modeling report the SO2 modeling results erroneously assigned Tier 4 for future changes to modeled SO2 parameters (located in the TFAC total facility subject item); Tier 4 only applies to modeling results for PSD-required modeling. The correct tier should have been Tier 3. Regardless, the Permittee preferred and the agency agreed to a single remodeling requirement in light of the decision at United States Steel Corporation v. Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, 2015 WL 4508104 (Minn Ct. App. 2015).
Review of modeled PM2.5 parameter values shows a number of discrepancies between the 2014 values and the 2016 updated reissuance application values for the same PM2.5 modeling parameters. As a result, this permit requires PM2.5 remodeling with updated parameters from the 2016 application.
c. Comparison of 2014 1-Hour SO2 Modeled Emission Rates and Consent Decree (CD) 30-day Rolling SO2 Limits
As part of the requirements for the Data Requirements Rule at pt. 51, subp. BB for demonstrating compliance with the 1-hour SO2 NAAQS, MPCA staff conducted an analysis to determine if the 30-day rolling average SO2 Consent Decree limits are as or more stringent than the 1-hour modeled SO2 emission rates. The MPCA used the following method:
i. Convert the CD limits (30-day rolling average in lb/mmBtu) to 30-day average limits expressed in lb/hr, using the heat rate input for the Facility EGUs.
ii. Using the methodology provided in EPA’s April 2014 “Guidance for 1-Hour SO2 Nonattainment Area SIP Submissions,” convert the NAAQS-compliant modeled lb/hr emission rate (also referred to as the critical emissions value) to a comparably stringent 30-day average limit, expressed in lb/hr. This conversion will use the conservatively calculated adjustment factors EPA provided in Appendix D of its guidance (the average ratio of 99th percentile 30-day average SO2 emission value to the 99th percentile of hourly SO2 emission value).
iii. Compare the comparably stringent (modeled) 30-day emission rates to the 30-day CD limits (in lb/hr) and show that the CD limits are equal to or less than the modeled limits, thereby ensuring that the federally enforceable CD limits provide for NAAQS attainment.
Using this method, the following results in Table 11 below were obtained demonstrating the Consent Decree 30-day rolling average SO2 emission limits are more restrictive than the modeled pound per hour SO2 emission rates.

d. Review of 2010 EQUI85 and 2008 EQUI100 PSD CO modeling
EQUI100 and EQUI81 CO emissions were modeled in 2008 as part of the EQUI100 Low-NOX burner and installation of EQUI81 project (PER003 and PER004). EQUI85 CO emissions were modeled in 2010 as part of the EQUI85 NOX reduction project (PER005).
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 43 of 70
Both projects were subject to PSD for CO emissions. Both modeled emissions rates were approximately ten-fold higher than the respective permitted emission rate. Table 12 shows the results of the modeling and support the existing CO modeling requirements that are currently in permit No. 06100004-007 and carried forward into permit No. 06100004-008.

e. Review of 2007 Title V Modeling
Permit No. 06100004-003 required the Permittee to conduct title V modeling for NOX, PM10, and SO2. Requirements based on the modeling results were added by Permit No. 06100004-004. All requirements were Tier 1 requirements (the least restrictive for requirements when modeled parameters are changed) other than those for NOX which were Tier 2. However, NOX modeling included the three emergency generators but current agency modeling policy doesn’t include emergency generators providing the Permittee operates these sources according to best management practices (BMPs; permit No. 06100004-008 includes an appendix of BMPs). In addition, two of the three modeled emergency generators were older pre-1975 equipment that were replaced with new lower-emitting (EQUI23 and EQUI119) emergency generators (in 2012 and 2015, respectively).
Many of the 2007 modeled parameters are no longer applicable due to equipment changes as well as inaccuracy of some of the modeled parameter data. Table 13 demonstrates the results of the modeling and the percent of each impact relative to the appropriate ambient air standard. Due to the low impacts, equipment changes, parameter inaccuracies, and 2014 SO2 modeling, these 2007 parameters and re-modeling requirements based on this modeling, are not carried forward into permit No. 06100004-008. In addition, the Permittee is not required to update the Title V modeling at this time because SO2 was modeled for the 1-hour NAAQS in 2014, PM2.5 re-modeling is required by permit No. 06100004-008, and emergency engines are operated according to BMPs.

3.3 CEMS-based Normal Dependable Heat Input
The Acid Rain Program monitoring requirements in part 75 include requirements to monitor and report heat input for the four EGUs at the Facility. These values exceed those derived from the manufacturer’s rated heat input and the heat input determined by fuel use and heat content. This phenomena has been studied by the Electric Power Research Institute, who determined the issue is related to US E.P.A. Method 2 for determining stack gas velocity and volumetric flow rate. Regardless, using the heat input data obtained by this monitoring, the Permittee conducted an analysis to determine the CEMS-based Normal Heat Input Capacity1.
Because the heat input measurements are rigorously quality assured under the Part 75, heat input values that rarely occurred were not automatically dismissed, but rather, only those values that by simple inspection could be identified as clearly unrepresentative due to their separation from the rest of the data were dismissed. Using this method, the Permittee concludes (and the agency accepts the conclusion that) the heat inputs (for emission calculation purposes) are appropriately revised to those in Table 14 below:
Table 14. CEMS-based Normal Dependable Heat Input Unit Heat Input (mmBtu/hr) 1 1075 2 910 3 4425 4 6800
3.4 EQUI85 and EQUI100 CO BACT Requirements Revision
The EQUI100 CO BACT determination made in 2007 (as part of PER003) resulted in a 0.15 lb/mmBtu CO limit on a 24-hour rolling average, excluding startup, shutdown, and malfunction. The EQUI85 CO BACT determination made in 2010 (as part of PER005) resulted in a 0.15 lb/mmBtu CO limit on a 30-day rolling average, excluding startup and shutdown,
1 This is similar to the analysis conducted by Xcel Energy for the Allen S. King plant permit No. 16300005-012 issued by
the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency on June 20, 2013.
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 45 of 70
and a limit of 28,826 lb/hr on a 1-hour average for startup and shutdown operations (operations at or below 320 MWgross).
The Permittee indicated their desire to revise the BACT limits as follows:
a. Change the EQUI100 averaging period to a 30-day rolling average and remove the startup/shutdown/malfunction exemption so that all EQUI100 emissions are subject to the CO BACT limit;
b. Remove the EQUI85 startup/shutdown 320 MWgross threshold and the startup/shutdown lb/hr CO limit so that all EQUI85 emissions are subject to the 0.15 lb/mmBtu CO BACT limit;
c. Allow use of a 5% CO2 diluent cap for converting the CEMS ppmv data to lb/mmBtu data, to avoid over-calculation of CO lb/mmBtu emission rates that may occur during low operating loads associated with startup and shutdown.
No revised EQUI85 CO BACT analysis is necessary to make the requested change to the EQUI85 CO BACT limit. This is because elimination of the 28,826 lb/hr startup/shutdown CO limit results in a more stringent limit due to the application of the 0.15 lb/mmBtu limit to startup/shutdown emissions. At 0.15 lb/mmBtu, EQUI85 can emit no more than 1050 lb CO/hr at full load (6800 mmBtu/hr), which is considerably lower than the existing 28,826 lb/hr startup/shutdown CO limit. Also, EQUI85 operates at less than full load during startup and shutdown, so the actual CO emission rate will be less than 1050 lb/hr during startup and shutdown which further supports making the requested change to the EQUI85 CO BACT limit without requiring a revised EQUI85 BACT analysis.
For EQUI100, the Permittee submitted a BACT analysis for changing the EQUI100 CO BACT 24-hour averaging period to a 30-day rolling average period, and for removing the BACT exemption for startup, shutdown, and malfunction. The MPCA reviewed the analysis and agreed to lengthen the averaging period, but also requested CO CEMS data to determine if the existing 0.15 lb/mmBtu limit was BACT.
The Permittee submitted EQUI100 CO CEMS data for the period from 2012 through most of 2017. MPCA staff analyzed the data and determined an achievable EQUI100 CO BACT limit would be 0.11 lb/mmBtu on a 30-day rolling average basis. The Permittee then indicated there were economic issues that were not considered in the MPCA analysis of the CEMS data, and proposed a limit of 0.13 lb/mmBtu on a 30-day rolling average to account for the economic issues. The MPCA requested a revised EQUI100 CO BACT analysis with economic data supporting the 0.13 lb/mmBtu proposed limit. In lieu of submitting a revised analysis with supporting economic data, the Permittee withdrew the request to revise the EQUI100 BACT limit other than to remove the startup/shutdown/malfunction exemption, and add the 5% CO2 diluent cap.
The changes made to the EQUI85 and EQUI100 CO BACT requirements do not comprise a PSD permit action because the changes made the original BACT determinations more stringent by removing provisions for CO emissions during startup and shutdown. Finally, BACT remains good combustion practices for both units.
Also, CO CEMS data reduction requirements were added to COMG8 for determining the EQUI85 30-day rolling average emission rate and the EQUI100 24-hour rolling average CO emission rate. The requested 5% CO2 diluent cap was included in the equation for calculating hourly CO emission rates. The diluent cap concept was based on the use of the cap in part 75, Appendix F and part 63, subp. UUUUU, Appendix A to avoid issues caused by low CO2 diluent levels measured during low operating loads (that may occur during startup and shutdown).

3.5 Monitoring In accordance with the Clean Air Act, it is the responsibility of the owner or operator of a facility to have sufficient knowledge of the facility to certify the facility is in compliance with applicable requirements.
The Permittee submitted updated CAM proposals (Attachment 5) for EQUI82, EQUI83, EQUI85, and EQUI100 as required by 40 CFR Section 64.3.
In evaluating the monitoring included in the permit, the MPCA considered the following: · the likelihood of the facility violating the applicable requirements; · whether add-on controls are necessary to meet emission limits; · the variability of emissions over time; · the type of available monitoring, process, maintenance, or control equipment data
for the subject item; · the technical and economic feasibility of possible periodic monitoring methods; and · monitoring requirements for similar units.
Table 15 summarizes the monitoring requirements. The EQUI100 Hg CEMS (EQUI109) is used to meet the requirements of Minn. R. 7011.0561, subp. 5(A) and Minn. Stat. § 216B.681 whereas the STRU13 sorbent trap (EQUI106) is used to monitor Hg in the common stack for EQUI82, EQUI83, and EQUI100 to meet the requirements of a monitoring plan submitted under Section 63.10000(d)(1). EQUI85 Hg CEMS (EQUI110) is used to meet Minn. R. 7011.0561, subp. 5(A), Minn. Stat. § 216B.681, and the MATS Hg monitoring requirements.

3.6 Insignificant activities
Several facility operations are classified as insignificant activities under Minn. R. ch. 7007. These are listed in permit Appendix A.
The permit is required to include periodic monitoring for all emissions units, including insignificant activities, based on EPA guidance. The insignificant activities at this facility are only subject to general applicable requirements. Using the criteria outlined earlier in this TSD, the following table documents the justification why no additional periodic monitoring is necessary for the current insignificant activities. See Attachment 7 for PTE information for the insignificant activities.

3.7 Permit organization
The permit both meets and deviates from MPCA Tempo Guidance for ordering and grouping of requirements.
SO2 limits are listed at COMG1 as has been done for the past twenty years (since the initial title V permit was issued) due to the complexity of applicable limits and operating scenarios. All low temperature fabric filter requirements are found in COMG3 due to the repetitive nature of the requirements for numerous low temperature fabric filters. The COMS and Part 75 CEMS requirements are also grouped in COMG4 and COMG6, respectively, except for ongoing QA/QC requirements listed under the appropriate EQUI subject item. The large number of requirements from the electric utility boiler NESHAP (pt. 63, subp. UUUUU) are grouped in COMG7 to reduce both permit length and to accommodate the option to average emissions among two or more utility boilers. CO CEMS requirements are located at
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 06100004-008 Page 68 of 70
COMG8, except for the QA/QC requirements which are located under the appropriate EQUI subject item. Requirements from the 2014 Consent Decree, Acid Rain Program, Minnesota Hg rule requirements that apply individually to each EGU, ignitor gun CO requirements, and test burn requirements were grouped in COMG9.
The permit also deviates from the guidance in the use of appendices. While appendices are fully enforceable parts of the permit, in general, any requirement warranting electronic tracking (e.g., testing, submittals, etc.), should be in the Requirements table in TEMPO because appendices are word processing documents that are not part of the electronic tracking system. Violation of appendices can be enforced, but TEMPO does not automatically generate the necessary enforcement notices or documents; staff must generate these. This permit uses an Appendix E for specific calculation procedures from 40 CFR pt. 63, subp. UUUUU because these calculations are too complex to enter into Tempo.

4. Permit fee assessment This permit action is primarily the reissuance of an individual Part 70 operating permit for which no application fees apply under Minn. R. 7002.0016, subp. 1 (including changes covered by the reissuance application that are unrelated to other incorporated applications). Attachment 4 contains the MPCA assessment of Application and Additional Points used to determine the permit application fee for this permit action as required by Minn. R. 7002.0019.
Additional points for review of two NSPSs (subps. Y for coal stockpile expansion and subp. IIII for new Unit 4 emergency generator), and a NESHAP (subp. ZZZZ for the Unit 4 emergency generator) are required. This permit action also includes requirements to limit the emission increases from the 2015 coal stockpile expansion project to less than the PSD 25 tpy PM significant emissions increase threshold.
This permit action includes revisions to existing EQUI85 and EQUI100 CO BACT determinations. Although a portion of the requested EQUI100 revision (from a 24-hour rolling average to a 30-day rolling average limit) was withdrawn by the Permittee and not included in this permit, fee calculation instructions require imposition of a for each pollutant when existing BACT is re-evaluated in any way and for any reason, even if the result is no changes to existing BACT conditions.
The permit action also includes 1-hour SO2 and 24-hour PM2.5 modeling reviews, but the reviews don’t incur additional fees because the modeling was required as part of the reissuance permit process, and because the reissuance permit isn’t subject to a fee, neither is the modeling review.
5. Conclusion Based on the information provided by Minnesota Power Inc. - Boswell Energy Center the MPCA has reasonable assurance that the proposed operation of the emission facility, as described in the Air Emission Permit No. 06100004-008 and this TSD, will not cause or contribute to a violation of applicable federal regulations and Minnesota Rules.

NOTE: *The PTE calculations use conservatively high assumptions for the wind erosion. The emissions due to wind erosion and the erodible area for wind erosion sources are based on several factors which are not accounted for in these calculations, including: pile disturbances, control measures, precipitation, snow cover, reclamation (mulching and seeding), and moisture content of ash pond beaches.
** The listed "acreage" is a conservatively high estimate of the average wind erodible true surface area for each fugitive source and segment.

(a) General requirements. For each COMG7 EGU, the Permittee must demonstrate initial compliance with each applicable emissions limit in Table 2 of subp. UUUUU through performance testing. Where two emissions limits are specified for a particular pollutant (e.g., a heat input‐based limit in lb/MMBtu and a gross output‐based limit in lb/MWh), the Permittee may demonstrate compliance with either emission limit. For a particular compliance demonstration, the Permittee may be required to conduct one or more of the following activities in conjunction with performance testing: collection of data, e.g., hourly gross output data (megawatts); establishment of operating limits according to Section 63.10011 and Tables 4 and 7 to subp. UUUUU; and CMS performance evaluations. In all cases, the Permittee must demonstrate initial compliance no later than the date in Section 63.10005(f) for tune‐up work practices for EQUI82, EQUI83, EQUI100, and EQUI85; and the date that compliance must be demonstrated, as given in Section 63.9984 for other requirements for EQUI82, EQUI83, EQUI100, and EQUI85.

COMG 7 39
To demonstrate initial compliance with an applicable emissions limit in Table 2 to subp. UUUUU using stack testing, the initial performance test generally consists of three runs at specified process operating conditions using approved methods. If the Permittee is required to establish operating limits (see Section 63.10005(d) and Table 4 to subp. UUUUU), the Permittee must collect all applicable parametric data during the performance test period. Also, if Permittee chooses to comply with an electrical output‐based emission limit, Permittee must collect hourly electrical load data during the test period. [40 CFR 63.10005(a)(1), Minn. R. 7011.0563]
COMG 7 40
(2) To demonstrate initial compliance using either a CMS that measures HAP concentrations directly (i.e., an Hg, HCl, or HF CEMS, or a sorbent trap monitoring system) or an SO2 or PM CEMS, the initial performance test shall consist of 30‐ or, for certain coal‐fired existing EGUs that use emissions averaging for Hg, 90‐boiler operating days. If the CMS is certified prior to the compliance date (or, if applicable, the approved extended compliance date), the test shall begin with the first operating day on or after that date, except as otherwise provided in Section 63.10005(b). If the CMS is not certified prior to the compliance date, the test shall begin with the first operating day after certification testing is successfully completed. In all cases, the initial 30‐ or 90‐ operating day averaging period must be completed on or before the date that compliance must be demonstrated (i.e., 180 days a er the applicable compliance date).(i) The CMS performance test must demonstrate compliance with the applicable Hg, HCl, HF, PM, or SO2 emissions limit in Table 2 to subp. UUUUU. (ii) The Permittee must collect hourly data from auxiliary monitoring systems (i.e., stack gas flow rate, CO2, O2, or moisture, as applicable) during the performance test period, in order to convert the pollutant concentrations to units of the standard. If the Permittee chooses to comply with a gross output‐based emission limit, the Permittee must also collect hourly gross output data during the performance test period. [40 CFR 63.10005(a)(2), Minn.

(d) CMS requirements. If, for a particular emission or operating limit, the Permittee is required to (or elects to) demonstrate initial compliance using a continuous monitoring system, the CMS must pass a performance evaluation prior to the initial compliance demonstration. If a CMS has been previously certified under another state or federal program and is continuing to meet the on‐going quality‐assurance (QA) requirements of that program, then, provided that the certification and QA provisions of that program meet the applicable requirements of Sections 63.10010(b) through (h), an additional performance evaluation of the CMS is not required under subp. UUUUU.
(1) For EQUI82, EQUI83, EQUI100, and EQUI85, the Permittee may demonstrate initial compliance with the applicable SO2, HCl, or HF emissions limit in Table 2 to subp. UUUUU through use of an SO2, HCl, or HF CEMS installed and operated in accordance with part 75 or appendix B to subp. UUUUU, as applicable. The Permittee may also demonstrate compliance with a filterable PM emission limit in Table 2 to subp. UUUUU through use of a PM CEMS installed, certified, and operated in accordance with Section 63.10010(i). Initial compliance is achieved if the arithmetic average of 30‐boiler operating days of quality‐assured CEMS data, expressed in units of the standard (see Section 63.10007(e)), meets the applicable SO2, PM, HCl, or HF emissions limit in Table 2 to subp. UUUUU. Use Equation 19‐19 of Method 19 in appendix A‐7 to part 60 to calculate the 30‐boiler operating day average emissions rate. (Note: For this calculation, the term Ehj in Equation 19‐19 must be in the same units of measure as the applicable HCl or HF emission limit in Table 2 to subp. UUUUU).

Low emitting EGUs. The provisions of Section 63.10005(h) apply to pollutants with emissions limits from existing EGUs. The Permittee may pursue this compliance option unless prohibited pursuant to Section 63.10000(c)(1)(i) (which states the Permittee may not pursue this option if the Permittee's existing EGU is equipped with an acid gas scrubber and has a main stack and bypass stack exhaust configuration).
(1) An EGU may qualify for low emitting EGU (LEE) status for Hg, HCl, HF, filterable PM, total non‐Hg HAP metals, or individual non‐Hg HAP metals (or total HAP metals or individual HAP metals, for liquid oil‐fired EGUs) if the Permittee collects performance test data that meet the requirements of Section 63.10005(h), and if those data demonstrate:
(i) For all pollutants except Hg, performance test emissions results less than 50 percent of the applicable emissions limits in Table 2 to subp.

COMG 7 49
(3) For Hg, the Permittee must conduct a 30‐ (or 90‐) boiler operating day performance test using Method 30B in appendix A‐8 to part 60 to determine whether a unit qualifies for LEE status. Locate the Method 30B sampling probe tip at a point within 10 percent of the duct area centered about the duct's centroid at a location that meets Method 1 in appendix A‐1 to part 60 and conduct at least three nominally equal length test runs over the 30‐ (or 90‐) boiler operating day test period. The Permittee may use a pair of sorbent traps to sample the stack gas for a period consistent with that given in section 5.2.1 of appendix A to subp. UUUUU. Collect Hg emissions data continuously over the entire test period (except when changing sorbent traps or performing required reference method QA procedures). As an alternative to constant rate sampling per Method 30B, the Permittee may use propor onal sampling per sec on 8.2.2 of Performance Specifica on 12 B in appendix B to part 60.(i) Depending on whether the Permittee intends to assess LEE status for Hg in terms of the lb/TBtu or lb/GWh emission limit in Table 2 to subp. UUUUU or in terms of the annual Hg mass emissions limit of 29.0 lb/year, the Permittee will have to collect some or all of the following data during the 30‐boiler operating day test period (see Sec on 63.10005(h)(3)(iii)):(A) Diluent gas (CO2 or O2) data, using either Method 3A in appendix A‐3 to part 60 or a diluent gas monitor that has been cer fied according to part 75.(B) Stack gas flow rate data, using either Method 2, 2F, or 2G in appendices A‐1 and A‐2 to part 60, or a flow rate monitor that has been cer fied according to part 75.(C) Stack gas moisture content data, using either Method 4 in appendix A‐1 to part 60, or a moisture monitoring system that has been certified according to part 75. Alternatively, an appropriate fuel‐specific default moisture value from Section 75.11(b) may be used in the calculations or you may petition the Administrator under Sec on 75.66 for use of a default moisture value for non‐coal‐fired units.(D) Hourly gross output data (megawatts), from facility records.

(2) If the limits are expressed in lb/MMBtu or lb/TBtu, the Permittee must use the F‐factor methodology and equations in sections 12.2 and 12.3 of EPA Method 19 in appendix A‐7 to part 60 of this chapter. In cases where an appropriate F‐factor is not listed in Table 19‐2 of Method 19, the Permittee may use F‐factors from Table 1 in section 3.3.5 of appendix F to part 75, or F‐factors derived using the procedures in section 3.3.6 of appendix to part 75. Use the following factors to convert the pollutant concentrations measured during the initial performance tests to units of lb/scf, for use in the applicable Method 19 equations: (i) Multiply SO2 ppm by 1.66 x 1E‐7; (ii) Multiply HCl ppm by 9.43 x 1E‐8; (iii) Multiply HF ppm by 5.18 x 1E‐8; (iv) Multiply HAP metals concentrations (mg/dscm) by 6.24 x 1E‐8; and (v) Multiply Hg concentrations (ug/scm) by 6.24 x 1E‐11.

COMG 7 71
(3) To determine compliance with emission limits expressed in lb/MWh or lb/GWh, the Permittee must first calculate the pollutant mass emission rate during the performance test, in units of lb/h. For Hg, if a CEMS or sorbent trap monitoring system is used, use Equation A‐2 or A‐3 in appendix A to subp. UUUUU (as applicable). In all other cases, use an equation that has the general form of Equation A‐2 or A‐3, replacing the value of K with 1.66E‐7 lb/scf‐ppm for SO2, 9.43E‐8 lb/scf‐ppm for HCl (if an HCl CEMS is used), 5.18E‐8 lb/scf‐ppm for HF (if an HF CEMS is used), or 6.24E‐8 lb‐scm/mg‐scf for HAP metals and for HCl and HF (when performance stack testing is used), and defining Ch as the average SO2, HCl, or HF concentration in ppm, or the average HAP metals concentration in mg/dscm. This calculation requires stack gas volumetric flow rate (scfh) and (in some cases) moisture content data (see Sections 63.10005(h)(3) and 63.10010). Then, if the applicable emission limit is in units of lb/GWh, use Equation A‐4 in appendix A to subp. UUUUU to calculate the pollutant emission rate in lb/GWh. In this calculation, define (M)h as the calculated pollutant mass emission rate for the performance test (lb/h), and define (MW)h as the average electrical load during the performance test (megawatts). If the applicable emission limit is in lb/MWh rather than lb/GWh, omit the 1E+3 term from Equation A‐4 to determine the pollutant emission rate in lb/MWh. [40 CFR 63.10007(e)(3), Minn. R. 7011.0563]

(f) If the Permittee elects to (or is required to) use CEMS to continuously monitor Hg, HCl, HF, SO2, or PM emissions (or, if applicable, sorbent trap monitoring systems to continuously collect Hg emissions data), the following default values are available for use in the emission rate calculations during startup periods or shutdown periods (as defined in Section 63.10042). For the purposes of subp. UUUUU, these default values are not considered to be subs tute data.
(1) Diluent cap values. If the Permittee uses CEMS (or, if applicable, sorbent trap monitoring systems) to comply with a heat input‐based emission rate limit, the Permittee may use the following diluent cap values for a startup or shutdown hour in which the measured CO2 concentration is below the cap value or the measured O2 concentra on is above the cap value:(ii) For all non‐IGCC EGUs, the Permi ee may use 5% for CO2 or 14% for O2.
(2) Default gross output. If the Permittee uses CEMS to continuously monitor Hg, HCl, HF, SO2, or PM emissions (or, if applicable, sorbent trap monitoring systems to continuously collect Hg emissions data), the following default value is available for use in the emission rate calculations during startup periods or shutdown periods (as defined in Section 63.10042). For the purposes of this subpart, this default value is not considered to be substitute data. For a startup or shutdown hour in which there is heat input to an affected EGU but zero gross output, the Permittee must calculate the pollutant emission rate using a value equivalent to 5% of the maximum sustainable gross output, expressed in megawatts, as defined in section 6.5.2.1(a)(1) of appendix A to part 75. This default gross output is either the nameplate capacity of the EGU or the highest gross output observed in at least four representative quarters of EGU operation. For a monitored common stack, the default gross output is used only when all EGUs are operating (i.e., combusting fuel) are in startup or shutdown mode, and have zero electrical generation. Under those conditions, a default gross output equal to 5% of the combined maximum sustainable gross output of the EGUs that are operating but have a total of zero gross output must be used to calculate the hourly gross output‐based pollutant emissions rate.

TEST BURNSThe Permi ee may use alterna ve fuels in EQUI82, EQUI83, EQUI100 and/or EQUI85 during test burns according to the following requirements:
1. The significant emissions increase and the net emissions increase of any criteria pollutant (regulated under 40 CFR 52.21) due to combusting alternative fuels (compared to the emissions from combusting subbituminous coal) does not exceed any emission increase threshold at 40 CFR 52.21(b)(23)(i) and (ii) during any 12‐month period. The Permittee shall verify this by calculating the difference between the emissions that will result from the test burn, as well as the emissions that would occur if subbituminous coal was combusted during the period of time when the alternative fuel was burned for each test burn, and summing these data on a pollutant‐by‐pollutant basis, for all test burns during each 12‐month period. The two‐step process specified at 40 CFR 52.21(a)(2)(iv)(a) shall be used to determine the change in emissions.
2. Permit emission limits are not exceeded. The Permi ee shall verify this during the test burn by using PM, SO2, NOx, and Hg continuous emission monitors, and a continuous opacity monitor. For emissions not continuously monitored, the Permittee shall verify limits are not exceeded by calculating emissions using AP‐42 or other available emission factors.3. Alterna ve fuels that are solid wastes, as defined in 40 CFR 258.2, shall not be burned unless determined to not be solid waste when combusted according to 40 CFR 241.3 or 40 CFR 241.4.4. Wood burned must meet the defini on of "Clean Cellulosic Biomass" at 40 CFR 241.2.5. Used oil must meet the specifica ons outlined in 40 Sec on 279.11.6. Test burns shall only be conducted to determine the feasibility of the alterna ve fuel type for the emission source, and shall be conducted only for as long as necessary to make the determination.

"Stationary reciprocating internal combustion engine (RICE)" means any reciprocating internal combustion engine which uses reciprocating motion to convert heat energy into mechanical work and which is not mobile. Stationary RICE differ from mobile RICE in that a stationary RICE is not a non‐road engine as defined at 40 CFR 1068.30, and is not used to propel a motor vehicle or a vehicle used solely for competition.
"Emergency stationary RICE" means any stationary reciprocating internal combustion engine that meets all of the criteria in paragraphs (1) through (3) of this definition. All emergency stationary RICE must comply with the requirements specified in Section 63.6640(f) in order to be considered emergency stationary RICE. If the engine does not comply with the requirements specified in Section 63.6640(f), then it is not considered to be an emergency stationary RICE under pt. 63, subp. ZZZZ.
(1) The stationary RICE is operated to provide electrical power or mechanical work during an emergency situation. Examples include stationary RICE used to produce power for critical networks or equipment (including power supplied to portions of a facility) when electric power from the local utility (or the normal power source, if the facility runs on its own power production) is interrupted, or stationary RICE used to pump water in the case of fire or flood, etc. (2) The stationary RICE is operated under limited circumstances for situations not included in paragraph (1) of this definition, as specified in Section 63.6640(f).(3) The stationary RICE operates as part of a financial arrangement with another entity in situations not included in paragraph (1) of this definition only as allowed in Section 63.6640(f)(2)(ii) or (iii) and Section 63.6640(f)(4)(i) or (ii).

"Stationary reciprocating internal combustion engine (RICE)" means any reciprocating internal combustion engine which uses reciprocating motion to convert heat energy into mechanical work and which is not mobile. Stationary RICE differ from mobile RICE in that a stationary RICE is not a non‐road engine as defined at 40 CFR 1068.30, and is not used to propel a motor vehicle or a vehicle used solely for competition.
"Emergency stationary RICE" means any stationary reciprocating internal combustion engine that meets all of the criteria in paragraphs (1) through (3) of this definition. All emergency stationary RICE must comply with the requirements specified in Section 63.6640(f) in order to be considered emergency stationary RICE.

"Stationary reciprocating internal combustion engine (RICE)" means any reciprocating internal combustion engine which uses reciprocating motion to convert heat energy into mechanical work and which is not mobile. Stationary RICE differ from mobile RICE in that a stationary RICE is not a non‐road engine as defined at 40 CFR 1068.30, and is not used to propel a motor vehicle or a vehicle used solely for competition.
"Emergency stationary RICE" means any stationary reciprocating internal combustion engine that meets all of the criteria in paragraphs (1) through (3) of this definition. All emergency stationary RICE must comply with the requirements specified in Section 63.6640(f) in order to be considered emergency stationary RICE. If the engine does not comply with the requirements specified in Section 63.6640(f), then it is not considered to be an emergency stationary RICE under pt. 63, subp. ZZZZ.
(1) The stationary RICE is operated to provide electrical power or mechanical work during an emergency situation. Examples include stationary RICE used to produce power for critical networks or equipment (including power supplied to portions of a facility) when electric power from the local utility (or the normal power source, if the facility runs on its own power production) is interrupted, or stationary RICE used to pump water in the case of fire or flood, etc. (2) The stationary RICE is operated under limited circumstances for situations not included in paragraph (1) of this definition, as specified in Section 63.6640(f).(3) The stationary RICE operates as part of a financial arrangement with another entity in situations not included in paragraph (1) of this definition only as allowed in Section 63.6640(f)(2)(ii) or (iii) and Section 63.6640(f)(4)(i) or (ii).
Note that as of May 4, 2016, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit reversed and remanded paragraphs 63.6640(f)(2)(ii) and (iii) back to EPA for further action. [40 CFR 63.6675, Minn. R. 7011.8150]
EQUI 119 5
The Permittee owns and operates EQUI119 which is an emergency stationary RICE with a site rating of more than 500 brake HP located at a major source of HAP emissions. Therefore the Permittee does not need to comply with the emission limitations in Table 2a or operating limitations in Table 2b in pt. 63, subp. ZZZZ. [40 CFR 63.6600(c), Minn. R. 7011.8150]
EQUI 119 6
The Permittee must be in compliance with applicable requirements in pt. 63, subp. ZZZZ (other than the Table 2a emission limitations and Table 2b operating limitations) at all times. [40 CFR 63.6605(a), Minn. R. 7011.8150]
EQUI 119 7
At all times the Permittee must operate and maintain EQUI119, including associated air pollution control equipment and monitoring equipment, in a manner consistent with safety and good air pollution control practices for minimizing emissions. The general duty to minimize emissions does not require the Permittee to make any further efforts to reduce emissions if levels required by this standard have been achieved. Determination of whether such operation and maintenance procedures are being used will be based on information available to the Administrator which may include, but is not limited to, monitoring results, review of operation and maintenance procedures, review of operation and maintenance records, and inspection of EQUI119.

Are all changes from the protocol adequately described and addressed? Acceptable
Changes to the modeling from the protocol included:
Section D: Four changes were made within this section. These changes included: 1) correcting the stack heights for SV17 and SV18; 2) changed the emission rates for SO2 at SV03 and SV04 (from 19,420 lb/hr and 6,131 lb/hr to 4,450 lb/hr to 2,600 lb/hr, respectively); 3) added area sources BECFS452-BECFS456 to the model to account for trucks picking up coal from the Boswell coal yard to deliver to the Rapids Energy Center; and 4) adding emission calculations and documentation for possible additional pollution control equipment from Clean Coal Solutions.
Section F: Receptor grid was corrected for the ambient air receptor that was placed on Keetac's property. Two modeling grids were modeled during this analysis: All receptors (minus one receptor on Keetac property) with

Boswell and all three nearby sources, and one receptor (on Keetac property) with Boswell, Blandin, and Rapids Energy Center. Section J: Incorporated SO2 emission rates for Blandin/Rapids Energy Center and Keetac that were provided by MPCA. Also incorporated PM2.5 emissions for Keetac that were also provided by MPCA.
All of the changes that were described above and in the aq2-48 form were made to the analysis.
Are the model files consistent with the MPCA AQDM-02 spreadsheet accompanying the permit application? Acceptable
AQDM-02 spreadsheet lists BECSV020 and BECSV021 as horizontally-oriented stacks, but the exit velocities do not reflect that (set at 12.05 m/s instead of 0.001 m/s).
*Based on phone call with Jared Anderson on 1/7/15, the release types listed in the AQDM-02 spreadsheet was a typo. Both BECSV020 and BECSV021 are vertical releases and the exit velocities of 12.05 m/s are correct. This was also noted in the file "aq2-41 10-22-2014_MShefferEdits.xlsx".
BEC_SV03 was modeled at a rate of 560.688 g/s, but the AQDM-02 spreadsheet states that the emission rate is 327.593 g/s. It appears that the spreadsheet refers to the wrong cell (refers to BEC_SV04) for the emission rate. The same with the lb/hr emission rate as well. *This typo was verified during the 1/7/15 phone call with Jared Anderson. This was corrected to the link to the correct cells for the emission rates in the file "aq2-41 10-22-2014_MShefferEdits.xlsx".
Modeling demonstrates compliance with applicable NAAQS/MAAQS, SIL’s, and PSD increments? Acceptable
1-hour SO2 = 186.6 ug/m3 (including background of 23.58 ug/m3 and nearby sources), which is 95.2% of 1-hour SO2 NAAQS
24-hour PM2.5 = 28.17 ug/m3 (including background of 17 ug/m3 and nearby sources), which is 80.5% of 24-hour PM2.5 NAAQS

C. Control Technology: High temperature fabric filter D. Monitoring Approach
The key elements of the monitoring approach are presented below: Indicator: fabric filter differential pressure (∆P) Normal Indicator Range: 2” – 14” w. c. ∆P (1-hour average basis)
E. Indicator Monitoring Performance Criteria
The Units 1 and 2 fabric filter differential pressure monitoring instrumentation is installed and maintained by Minnesota Power engineers and technicians in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations.
BOSWELL ENERGY CENTER UNITS 1 AND 2 COMPLIANCE ASSURANCE MONITORING PLAN – PM
BOS 1&2 PM CAM Plan 5.9.18, JLMc, MP 2 of 4
F: Justification for Selection of Monitoring Indicator and Normal Indicator Range
Differential pressure is used as the performance indicator because it relates directly to proper fabric filter operation. An increase in differential pressure can indicate that the filter bags are aging or are blinded because the cleaning process is insufficient. Decreases in differential pressure may indicate damaged or missing bags or structural issues that can cause increased particulate emissions. The differential pressure indicator range for CAM purposes was selected based on historical data obtained during normal operation as described below. Differential pressure during the most recent performance test in 2012 is shown in the following two charts – 2” to 10” was normal when measured emissions of 0.007 lbs/mmBtu were less than ½ of the 0.015 lbs/mmBtu 3-hour average PM limit.
BOSWELL ENERGY CENTER UNITS 1 AND 2 COMPLIANCE ASSURANCE MONITORING PLAN – PM
BOS 1&2 PM CAM Plan 5.9.18, JLMc, MP 3 of 4
However, as the fabric filter bags age the differential pressure range increases as illustrated by comparing the 2012 charts to the 2016 chart below.
BOSWELL ENERGY CENTER UNITS 1 AND 2 COMPLIANCE ASSURANCE MONITORING PLAN – PM
BOS 1&2 PM CAM Plan 5.9.18, JLMc, MP 4 of 4
And, following a full bag replacement differential pressure decreases substantially as illustrated by comparing the 2016 Unit 1 chart above to the 2017 chart below.
To accommodate the full differential pressure range that occurs over the full fabric filter bag life cycle a differential pressure range of 2” – 14” w.c. is selected for CAM purposes. When a 1-hour average differential pressure outside this range occurs corrective action will be initiated to restore normal operation.

C. Control Technology: High temperature fabric filter. D. Performance Monitoring Indicator and Normal Indicator Range
Differential pressure (∆P) is used to monitor performance of the fabric filter. A 1-hour average ∆P between 2” and 11” w.c. indicates normal operation. Operation of Unit 3 with a fabric filter ∆P outside this normal indicator range is considered an excursion for possible corrective action and deviation reporting purposes.
E. Monitoring Equipment Performance Criteria
Differential pressure monitoring equipment is installed on the fabric filter by the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and the instruments are maintained and calibrated by Minnesota Power technicians following the OEM recommendations. Differential pressure measurements are continuously monitored and recorded by the Unit 3 control systems and are immediately available to control room operating personnel.
F: Justification for Selection of Performance Monitoring Indicator and Normal Indicator Range
Differential pressure is used as the performance indicator because it relates directly to proper fabric filter operation. An increase in ∆P can indicate that the filter bags are aging or are blinded because the cleaning process is insufficient. Decreases in ∆P may indicate damaged or missing bags or structural issues that can cause increased particulate emissions.

BOS 3 PM CAM Plan April 2018 2 of 2
The normal indicator range for the fabric filter ∆P (2” and 11” w.c.) was adopted based on years of operating experience and the manufacturer’s specifications. The highest ∆P occurs with aged filter bags and the higher airflows that occur under high boiler operating loads. The lowest ∆P occurs when the boiler is operating at low loads following periodic replacement of the filter bags as illustrated in the following chart:

The indicator range is selected from baseline operating data collected since initial startup of the fabric filter in October, 2015. The ∆P has ranged between 4’’ and 13” w.c. on a 1- hour average basis; however, the CAM normal indicator range is set somewhat wider at 4” to 18” w.c. to allow for the inevitable gradual increase as the filter bags age through their life cycle.
Performance testing conducted during the baseline operating period demonstrates emission limit compliance by wide margins with ∆P in the normal operating range.

procedures set forth at 40 C.F.R. Part 51, Appendix M, Method 202, unless the Unit is Retired,
Refueled, or Repowered by June 30 of the same calendar year. Each test shall consist of three
separate runs performed under representative operating conditions not including periods of
startup, shutdown, or Malfunction. The sampling time for each run shall be at least 60 minutes
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 34 of 107
33
and the volume of each run shall be at least 0.85 dry standard cubic meters (30 dry standard
cubic feet). Minnesota Power shall calculate the number of pounds of condensable PM emitted
per million BTU of heat input (lb/mmBTU) from the stack test results in accordance with 40
C.F.R. § 60.8(f). The results of the PM stack test conducted pursuant to this Paragraph shall not
be used for the purpose of determining compliance with the PM Emission Rates required by this
Consent Decree. The results of each PM stack test shall be submitted to EPA and MPCA within
60 Days following completion of such test.
130. The annual performance test requirement imposed on Minnesota Power by
Section VI.H of this Consent Decree may be satisfied by stack tests conducted by Minnesota
Power as may be required by its permits from the State of Minnesota for any year that such stack
tests are required under the permits. Minnesota Power may perform testing every other year,
rather than every year, provided that the two most recently completed test results conducted in
accordance with the methods and procedures specified in this Consent Decree demonstrate that
the PM emissions are equal to or less than 0.015 lb/mmBTU for those Units with an Electrostatic
Precipitator and 0.0075 lb/mmBTU for those Units with a Baghouse. Minnesota Power shall
perform testing every year, rather than every other year, beginning in the year immediately
following any test result demonstrating that the PM emissions are greater than 0.015 lb/mmBTU
for those Units with an Electrostatic Precipitator or 0.0075 lb/mmBTU for those Units with a
Baghouse.
131. When Minnesota Power submits the application for amendment to its Title V
Permit pursuant to Paragraph 209, that application shall include a Compliance Assurance
Monitoring (“CAM”) plan, under 40 C.F.R. Part 64, for the PM Emission Rate in Paragraphs 121
through 125. The PM CEMS required under Paragraph 132 may be used in that CAM plan.

followed for such PM CEMS. The proposed QA/QC protocol may include a process for
streamlined revisions to stay current with regulatory changes (e.g., EPA Performance Standard
PS 11) and PM CEMS vendor recommendations.
135. In developing both the plan for installation and correlation of the PM CEMS and
the QA/QC protocol, Minnesota Power shall use the criteria set forth in 40 C.F.R. Part 60,
Appendix B, Performance Specification 11, and Appendix F, Procedure 2, or equivalent criteria
specified in and allowed by applicable Minnesota SIP provision(s). For each Boswell Unit at
which Minnesota Power chooses to install, certify, operate, and maintain a PM CEMS under 40
C.F.R. § 63.10010(i) (the Utility MATS Rule), Minnesota Power may, pursuant to 40 C.F.R. §
63.7, seek approval to use Method 5 (at the temperature specified in 40 C.F.R. Part 60, Appendix
A-3) for correlation of its CEMS in order to comply with the Utility MATS Rule. If Minnesota
Power makes such a request, and EPA’s air program office disapproves it or requires the use or
submittal of a Method 301 validation (at 40 C.F.R. Part 63, Appendix A), then Minnesota Power
may use the correlation method specified in 40 C.F.R. § 63.10010(i) for purposes of correlating
the PM CEMS under this Consent Decree. If EPA, after consultation with MPCA, approves the
plan described in Paragraph 133 and the QA/QC protocol described in Paragraph 134, Minnesota
Power shall thereafter operate the PM CEMS in accordance with the approved plan and QA/QC
protocol.
136. By no later than June 30, 2015 for the PM CEMS for the stack serving Boswell
Units 1, 2, and 3 and by no later than June 30, 2016 for the PM CEMS for the stack serving
Boswell Unit 4, Minnesota Power shall install, correlate (and, for the stack serving Boswell
Units 1, 2, and 3, if Minnesota Power chooses Reroute, re-correlate), maintain, and operate each
PM CEMS, conduct performance specification tests on the PM CEMS, and demonstrate
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 37 of 107
36
compliance with the plan and protocol submitted to and approved by EPA in accordance with
Paragraphs 133 and 134. Minnesota Power shall report, pursuant to Section XII (Periodic
Reporting), the 3-Hour Rolling Average Emission Rate data recorded by the PM CEMS, in
electronic format (Microsoft Excel compatible) to EPA.
137. Stack testing shall be used to determine compliance with the PM Emission Rates
established by this Consent Decree, unless EPA approves after consultation with MPCA a
request under Paragraph 127, in which case PM CEMS shall be used to demonstrate compliance
with an applicable PM Emission Rate on a 3-Hour Rolling Average Emission Rate basis. Data
from the PM CEMS shall be used, at a minimum, to monitor emissions on a continuous basis.
138. Nothing in this Consent Decree is intended to, or shall, alter or waive any
applicable law (including but not limited to any defenses, entitlements, challenges, or
clarifications related to the Credible Evidence Rule, 62 Fed. Reg. 8314 (Feb. 24, 1997))
concerning the use of data for any purpose under the Act.

Paragraph.
VIII. PROHIBITION ON NETTING CREDITS OR OFFSETS
145. Emission reductions that result from actions to be taken by Minnesota Power after
the Date of Entry of this Consent Decree to comply with the requirements of this Consent Decree
shall not be considered as a creditable contemporaneous emission decrease for the purpose of
obtaining a Netting credit or offset under the Clean Air Act’s PSD and Nonattainment NSR
programs. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, and subject to the limitations provided in
Paragraph 146, Minnesota Power may treat up to (a) 75 tons of NOx, 75 tons of SO2, and 15 tons
of PM emission reductions at Boswell Units 3 and 4 as if they were not otherwise required by
this Consent Decree for purposes of Netting at the Boswell Units 3 and 4.
146. Use of the Netting credits provided in Paragraph 145 is subject to the following
additional restrictions:
(a) The emission reductions of NOx, SO2, and PM Minnesota Power intends to utilize for
Netting purposes must be contemporaneous and otherwise creditable within the meaning
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 40 of 107
39
of the Act and the applicable SIP, and Minnesota Power must comply with, and be
subject to, all requirements and criteria for creating contemporaneous creditable
decreases as set forth in 40 C.F.R. § 52.21(b) and the applicable SIP, subject to the
limitations of this Section,
(b) Minnesota Power must apply for, and obtain, any required major or minor NSR
permits for any project in which emission reductions under Paragraph 145 are used for
Netting. Minnesota Power shall provide notice and a copy of its permit application to
EPA in accordance with Section XIX (Notices), concurrent with its permit application
submission to the relevant permitting authority,
(c) The emission reductions of NOx, SO2, and PM that Minnesota Power intends to utilize
for Netting shall not be available under this Section if such use would result in an
exceedance of a PSD increment, or an interference with “reasonable further progress”
toward attainment of a NAAQS in accordance with Part D of Title I of the CAA, and
(d) Minnesota Power must be and remain in full compliance with the provisions of this
Consent Decree establishing performance, operational, maintenance, and control
technology requirements at Boswell Units 3 and 4, including Emission Rates, System-
Wide Annual Tonnage Limitations, and the requirements pertaining to the Surrender of
SO2 Allowances and NOx Allowances.
147. The limitations on the generation and use of Netting credits and offsets set forth in
this Section do not apply to emission reductions achieved by a particular Minnesota Power
System Unit that are greater than those required under this Consent Decree for that particular
Minnesota Power System Unit. For purposes of this Paragraph, emission reductions from a
Minnesota Power System Unit are greater than those required under this Consent Decree if they
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 41 of 107
40
result from such Unit’s compliance with federally-enforceable emission limits that are more

r. Any other violation of this Consent Decree $1,000 per Day per violation
169. Violations of any limit based on a 30-Day Rolling Average Emission Rate
constitutes thirty (30) Days of violation, provided, however, that where such a violation (for the
same pollutant and from the same Unit) recurs within periods less than thirty (30) Days,
Minnesota Power shall not be obligated to pay a daily stipulated penalty for any Day of the
recurrence for which a stipulated penalty has already been paid.
170. Minnesota Power shall not be subject to stipulated penalties for a failure to
comply with any 30-Day Rolling Average Emission Rate for NOx or SO2 due to a startup or
shutdown event provided that (1) Minnesota Power’s emissions do not exceed the 30-Day
Rolling Average NOx or SO2 Emission Rate by more than 0.015 lb/mmBTU, (2) in the next
periodic reporting period, Minnesota Power provides EPA with data and calculations to
demonstrate a startup or shutdown event occurred and but for the startup or shutdown event,
Minnesota Power would have achieved and maintained compliance with the applicable 30-Day
Rolling Average Emission Rate for NOx or SO2, and (3) Minnesota Power identifies the time
period of the event, provides EPA and the MPCA with data regarding the flue gas temperature
entering each applicable control device during the startup or shutdown event and provides a brief
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 53 of 107
52
description of why such startup/shutdown conditions limited or impeded the operation of
applicable pollution control device(s). Minnesota Power may only invoke this provision in
relation to five startup or shutdown events per calendar year per Unit during the term of this
Consent Decree. For purposes of this Paragraph 170, a startup or shutdown event may not
extend more than 72 hours. This provision applies only to the calculation of stipulated penalties,
and shall not be included in any permit.
171. Violations of any limit based on a 12-Month Rolling Average Emission Rate or
violations of the 12-Month Percent Heat Input from Coal constitutes three hundred sixty-five
(365) Days of violation, provided, however, that where such a violation (as to a 12-Month
Rolling Average Emission Rate, for the same pollutant and from the same Unit) recurs within
periods less than 12 Months, Minnesota Power shall not be obligated to pay a daily stipulated
penalty for any Day of the recurrence for which a stipulated penalty has already been paid.
172. Violations of any applicable PM Emission Rate demonstrated by stack test shall
be deemed to start on the Day of the stack test demonstrating a violation and continue each
Operating Day thereafter until and excluding such Day on which a subsequent stack test
conducted pursuant to Paragraph 128 demonstrates compliance with the applicable PM Emission
Rate.
173. Where two or more Units share a common stack or monitoring point for NOx,
SO2, and/or PM, compliance with any and all of the requirements of this Consent Decree will
still be determined for each Unit individually. For purposes of determining compliance with this
Consent Decree, an emission rate measured at a common stack or monitoring point will be
treated as if it were the emission rate for each of the Units contributing emissions. For example,
if NOx emissions measured in the common stack for Laskin 1 and 2 were to exceed 0.190
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 54 of 107
53
lb/mmBTU, compliance for Laskin 1 and Laskin 2 would be individually determined by
comparing the required rate for each to the single rate measured in the common stack, and
Minnesota Power would have violated this Consent Decree twice and would be required to pay
stipulated penalties for both an exceedance at Laskin 1 and an exceedance at Laskin 2.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Minnesota Power demonstrates that a Unit was not operating
during an exceedance, then no violation will be found at that Unit for the exceedance.
174. All stipulated penalties shall begin to accrue on the Day after the performance is
due or on the Day a violation occurs, whichever is applicable, and shall continue to accrue until
performance is satisfactorily completed or until the violation ceases, whichever is applicable.
Nothing in this Consent Decree shall prevent the simultaneous accrual of separate stipulated
penalties for separate violations of this Consent Decree.
175. Minnesota Power shall pay all stipulated penalties to the United States within
thirty (30) Days following receipt of written demand to Minnesota Power from the United States,
and shall continue to make such payments every thirty (30) Days thereafter until the violation(s)
no longer continues, unless Minnesota Power elects within twenty (20) Days following receipt of
written demand to Minnesota Power from the United States to dispute the imposition or accrual
of stipulated penalties in accordance with the provisions in Section XVI (Dispute Resolution) of
this Consent Decree.
176. Stipulated penalties shall continue to accrue as provided in accordance with
Paragraph 173 during any dispute, with interest on accrued stipulated penalties payable and
calculated at the rate established by the Secretary of the Treasury, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1961,
but need not be paid until the following:
a. If the dispute is resolved by agreement, or by a decision of the United States
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 55 of 107
54
pursuant to Section XVI (Dispute Resolution) of this Consent Decree that is not
appealed to the Court, accrued stipulated penalties agreed or determined to be
owing, together with accrued interest, shall be paid to the United States within
thirty (30) Days following the effective date of the agreement or of the receipt of
the United States’ decision;
b. If the dispute is appealed to the Court and the United States prevails in whole or
in part, Minnesota Power shall, within sixty (60) Days of receipt of the Court’s
decision or order, pay all accrued stipulated penalties determined by the Court to
be owing, together with interest accrued on such penalties determined by the
Court to be owing, except as provided in Subparagraph (c), below;
c. If the Court’s decision is appealed by any Party, Minnesota Power shall, within
fifteen (15) Days of receipt of the final appellate court decision, pay all accrued
stipulated penalties determined by the appellate court to be owed, together with
interest accrued on such stipulated penalties.
177. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Consent Decree, the accrued
stipulated penalties agreed by the United States and Minnesota Power, or determined by the
United States through Dispute Resolution, to be owed may be less than the stipulated penalty
amounts set forth in Paragraph 168.
178. All monetary stipulated penalties shall be paid to the United States in the manner
set forth in Section X (Civil Penalty) of this Consent Decree, and all NOx Allowance Surrender
and SO2 Allowance Surrender stipulated penalties shall comply with the Surrender procedures of
Paragraphs 97 - 98 and 118 - 119.
179. If Minnesota Power fails to pay stipulated penalties in compliance with the terms
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 56 of 107
55
of this Consent Decree, the United States shall be entitled to collect interest on such penalties
owing to the United States, as provided for in 28 U.S.C. § 1961.
180. The stipulated penalties provided for in this Consent Decree shall be in addition to
any other rights, remedies, or sanctions available to the United States by reason of Minnesota
Power’s failure to comply with any requirement of this Consent Decree or applicable law, except
that for any violation of the Act for which this Consent Decree provides for payment of a
stipulated penalty, Minnesota Power shall be allowed a credit for stipulated penalties paid against
any statutory penalties also imposed for such violation.
181. Affirmative Defense as to Stipulated Penalties for Excess Emissions Occurring
During Malfunctions: If any of the Units at Minnesota Power’s Boswell Energy Center, Laskin
Energy Center, or Taconite Harbor, exceed an applicable 30-Day Rolling Average Emission Rate
for NOx or SO2 set forth in this Consent Decree due to Malfunction, or if any of the Units at
Minnesota Power’s Boswell Energy Center that have been approved to use PM CEMS for
compliance under Paragraph 127 exceed an applicable 3-Hour Rolling Average Emission Rate
for PM due to Malfunction, Minnesota Power, bearing the burden of proof, has an affirmative
defense to stipulated penalties under this Consent Decree, if Minnesota Power has complied with
the reporting requirements of Paragraph 184 and has demonstrated all of the following:
a. the excess emissions were caused by a sudden, unavoidable breakdown of
technology, beyond Minnesota Power’s control;
b. the excess emissions (1) did not stem from any activity or event that could have
been foreseen and avoided, or planned for, and (2) could not have been avoided
by better operation and maintenance practices in accordance with manufacturers’
specifications and good engineering and maintenance practices;
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 57 of 107
56
c. to the maximum extent practicable, the air pollution control equipment and
processes were maintained and operated in a manner consistent with good
practice for minimizing emissions in accordance with manufacturers’
specifications and good engineering and maintenance practices;
d. repairs were made in an expeditious fashion when Minnesota Power knew or
should have known that an applicable 30-Day Rolling Average Emission Rate or
3-Hour Rolling Average Emission Rate was being or would be exceeded. Off-
shift labor and overtime must have been utilized, to the extent practicable, to
ensure that such repairs were made as expeditiously as practicable;
e. the amount and duration of the excess emissions (including any bypass) were
minimized to the maximum extent practicable during periods of such emissions in
accordance with manufacturers’ specifications and good engineering and
maintenance practices;
f. all possible steps were taken to minimize the impact of the excess emissions in
accordance with approved plans, QA/QC protocols, manufacturers’ specifications
and recommendations, and good engineering and maintenance practices;
g. all emission monitoring systems were kept in operation if at all possible in
accordance with manufacturers’ specifications and good engineering and
maintenance practices;
h. Minnesota Power’s actions in response to the excess emissions were documented
by properly signed, contemporaneous operating logs, or other relevant evidence;
i. the excess emissions were not part of a recurring pattern indicative of inadequate
design, operation, or maintenance; and
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 58 of 107
57
j. Minnesota Power properly and promptly notified EPA and MPCA as required by
this Consent Decree.
182. To assert an affirmative defense for exceedance of an applicable 30-Day Rolling
Average Emission Rate for NOx or SO2 due to Malfunction under Paragraph 181, Minnesota
Power shall submit all data to EPA demonstrating the actual emissions for the Day the
Malfunction occurs and the 29-Day period following the Day the excess emissions from the
Malfunction occurs. To assert an affirmative defense for exceedance of an applicable 3-Hour
Rolling Average Emission Rate for PM due to Malfunction under Paragraph 181, Minnesota
Power shall submit to EPA all data demonstrating the actual emissions for the 3-hour period
during which the excess emissions from Malfunction occurs. In addition to data Minnesota
Power is otherwise required to submit under this Consent Decree, Minnesota Power may, if it
elects, submit emissions data for the same 30-Day period or 3-hour period, as applicable, but that
excludes the excess emissions.
183. If excess emissions occur due to a Malfunction during routine startup and
shutdown, then those instances shall be treated as other Malfunctions subject to Paragraph181.
184. Minnesota Power shall provide notice to EPA in writing of Minnesota Power’s
intent to assert an affirmative defense for Malfunction under Paragraphs 181 in Minnesota
Power’s semi-annual periodic reports as required by Paragraph 162. This notice shall be
submitted to EPA pursuant to the provisions of Section XIX (Notices). The notice shall contain:
a. the identity of each stack or other emission point where the excess emissions
occurred;
b. the magnitude of the excess emissions expressed in lb/mmBTU and the operating
data and calculations used in determining the magnitude of the excess emissions;
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 59 of 107
58
c. the time and duration or expected duration of the excess emissions;
d. the identity of the equipment from which the excess emissions emanated;
e. the nature and suspected cause of the excess emissions;
f. the steps taken to remedy the Malfunction and the steps taken or planned to
prevent the recurrence of the Malfunction;
g. the steps that were or are being taken to limit the excess emissions; and
h. if applicable, a list of the steps taken to comply with the permit conditions
governing Unit operation during periods of Malfunction.
185. A Malfunction shall not constitute a Force Majeure Event unless the Malfunction
meets the definition of a Force Majeure Event, as provided in Section XV (Force Majeure).
186. The affirmative defense provided herein is only an affirmative defense to
stipulated penalties for violations of this Consent Decree, and not a defense to any civil or
administrative action for injunctive relief.
XV. FORCE MAJEURE
187. For purposes of this Consent Decree, a “Force Majeure Event” shall mean an
event that has been or will be caused by circumstances beyond the control of Minnesota Power,
its contractors, or any entity controlled by Minnesota Power that delays or prevents compliance
with any provision of this Consent Decree or otherwise causes noncompliance with any
provision of this Consent Decree despite Minnesota Power’s best efforts to fulfill the obligation.
“Best efforts to fulfill the obligation” include using the best efforts to anticipate any potential
Force Majeure Event and to address the effects of any such event (a) as it is occurring, and (b)
after it has occurred, such that the delay or noncompliance, and any adverse environmental effect
of the delay or noncompliance, is minimized to the greatest extent possible.
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 60 of 107
59
188. Notice of Force Majeure Events. If any event occurs or has occurred that may
delay or prevent compliance with or otherwise cause noncompliance with any obligation under
this Consent Decree, as to which Minnesota Power intends to assert a claim of a Force Majeure
Event, Minnesota Power shall notify the United States and MPCA in writing as soon as
practicable, but in no event later than fourteen (14) Business Days following the date Minnesota
Power first knew, or by the exercise of due diligence should have known, that the event caused
or may cause such delay or noncompliance. In this notice, Minnesota Power shall reference this
Paragraph of this Consent Decree and describe the anticipated length of time that the delay or
noncompliance may persist, the cause or causes of the delay or noncompliance, all measures
taken or to be taken by Minnesota Power to prevent or minimize the delay or noncompliance, the
schedule by which Minnesota Power proposes to implement those measures, and Minnesota
Power’s rationale for attributing a delay or violation to a Force Majeure Event. Minnesota
Power shall adopt all reasonable measures to avoid or minimize such delays or violations.
Minnesota Power shall be deemed to know of any circumstance which Minnesota Power, its
contractors, or any entity controlled by Minnesota Power knew or should have known.
189. Failure to Give Notice. If Minnesota Power fails to comply with the above notice
requirements regarding a Force Majeure Event, the EPA, after consultation with the MPCA, may
void Minnesota Power’s claim for a Force Majeure Event as to the specific event for which
Minnesota Power has failed to comply with such notice requirement.
190. United States’ Response. The United States shall notify Minnesota Power in
writing regarding Minnesota Power’s claim of a Force Majeure Event as soon as reasonably
practicable. If the United States after consultation with MPCA agrees that a Force Majeure
Event has delayed or prevented, or will delay or prevent, compliance with any provision of this
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 61 of 107
60
Consent Decree, or has otherwise caused or will cause noncompliance with any provision of this
Consent Decree, the United States and Minnesota Power shall stipulate to an extension of
deadline(s) for performance of the affected compliance requirement(s) by a period equal to the
delay or period of noncompliance actually caused by the event. In such circumstances, an
appropriate modification shall be made pursuant to Section XXIII (Modification) of this Consent
Decree.
191. Disagreement. If the United States does not accept Minnesota Power’s claim of a
Force Majeure Event, or if the United States and Minnesota Power cannot agree on the length of
the delay or noncompliance actually caused by the Force Majeure Event, the matter shall be
resolved in accordance with Section XVI (Dispute Resolution) of this Consent Decree.
192. Burden of Proof. In any dispute regarding a Force Majeure Event, Minnesota
Power shall bear the burden of proving that any delay in performance or any other
noncompliance with any requirement of this Consent Decree was caused by or will be caused by
a Force Majeure Event. Minnesota Power shall also bear the burden of proving that Minnesota
Power gave the notice required by this Section and the burden of proving the anticipated duration
and extent of any delay(s) or noncompliance attributable to a Force Majeure Event. An
extension of one compliance date based on a particular event may, but will not necessarily, result
in an extension of a subsequent compliance date.
193. Events Excluded. Unanticipated or increased costs or expenses associated with
the performance of Minnesota Power’s obligations under this Consent Decree shall not constitute
a Force Majeure Event.
194. Potential Force Majeure Events. The Parties agree that, depending upon the
circumstances related to an event and Minnesota Power’s response to such circumstances, the
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 62 of 107
61
kinds of events listed below are among those that could qualify as Force Majeure Events within
the meaning of this Section: construction, labor, or equipment delays; Malfunction of a Unit or
emission control device; unanticipated coal supply or pollution control reagent delivery
interruptions; acts of God; acts of war or terrorism; and orders by a government official,
government agency, other regulatory authority, or a regional transmission organization (e.g. the
Midwest Independent System Operator), acting under and authorized by applicable law, that
direct Minnesota Power to supply electricity in response to a system-wide (state-wide or
regional) emergency (which could include unanticipated required operation to avoid loss of load
or unserved load or to preserve the reliability of the bulk power system). Depending upon the
circumstances and Minnesota Power’s response to such circumstances, failure of a permitting
authority or the Minnesota Public Utilities Commission (“MPUC”) to issue a necessary permit or
order with sufficient time for Minnesota Power to achieve compliance with this Consent Decree
may constitute a Force Majeure Event where the failure of the permitting authority or MPUC to
act is beyond the control of Minnesota Power and Minnesota Power has taken all steps available
to it to obtain the necessary permit (exclusive of submitting the permit application under the
MPCA’s Expedited Permitting Program), including, but not limited to: timely submitting a
complete permit application; responding to requests for additional information by the permitting
authority or MPUC in a timely fashion; and accepting lawful permit terms and conditions after
expeditiously exhausting any legal rights to appeal terms and conditions imposed by the
permitting authority or MPUC.
195. As part of the resolution of any matter submitted to this Court under Section XVI
(Dispute Resolution) regarding a claim of Force Majeure, the United States after consultation
with MPCA and Minnesota Power by agreement, or this Court by order, may in appropriate
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 63 of 107
62
circumstances extend or modify the schedule for completion of work under this Consent Decree
to account for the delay in the work that occurred as a result of any delay agreed to by the United
States or approved by the Court. Minnesota Power shall be liable for stipulated penalties
pursuant to Section XIV (Stipulated Penalties) for its failure thereafter to complete the work in
accordance with the extended or modified schedule (provided that Minnesota Power shall not be
precluded from making a further claim of a Force Majeure Event with regard to meeting any
such extended or modified schedule).
XVI. DISPUTE RESOLUTION
196. The dispute resolution procedure provided by this Section shall be available to
resolve all disputes arising under this Consent Decree, provided that the Party invoking such
procedure has first made a good faith attempt to resolve the matter with the other Parties.
197. The dispute resolution procedure required herein shall be invoked by one Party
giving written notice to the other Parties advising of a dispute pursuant to this Section. The
notice shall describe the nature of the dispute and shall state the noticing Party’s position with
regard to such dispute. The Parties receiving such a notice shall acknowledge receipt of the
notice, and the Parties in dispute shall expeditiously schedule a meeting to discuss the dispute
informally not later than fourteen (14) Days following receipt of such notice.
198. Disputes submitted to dispute resolution under this Section shall, in the first
instance, be the subject of informal negotiations between the Parties. Such period of informal
negotiations shall not extend beyond thirty (30) Days from the date of the first meeting between
the Parties’ representatives unless they agree in writing to shorten or extend this period.
199. In the event that the United States and the State make differing determinations or
take differing actions that affect Minnesota Power's rights or obligations under this Consent
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 64 of 107
63
Decree, the determination or action of the United States shall control.
200. If the Parties are unable to reach agreement during the informal negotiation
period, the United States or the State of Minnesota (as applicable) shall provide Minnesota
Power with a written summary of its position regarding the dispute. The written position
provided by the United States (following consultation with the State) shall be considered binding
unless, within forty-five (45) Days thereafter, Minnesota Power seeks judicial resolution of the
dispute by filing a petition with this Court. The United States may submit a response to the
petition within forty-five (45) Days of filing.
201. In addition to any other methods set forth in this Section for altering time periods,
the time periods set out in this Section may be shortened or lengthened upon motion to the Court
of one of the Parties to the dispute, explaining the Party’s basis for seeking such a scheduling
modification filing.
202. This Court shall not draw any inferences nor establish any presumptions adverse
to either Party as a result of invocation of this Section or the Parties’ inability to reach
agreement.
203. As part of the resolution of any dispute under this Section, in appropriate
circumstances the Parties may agree, or this Court may order, an extension or modification of the
schedule for the completion of the activities required under this Consent Decree to account for
the delay that occurred as a result of dispute resolution. Minnesota Power shall be liable for
stipulated penalties pursuant to Section XIV (Stipulated Penalties) for its failure thereafter to
complete the work in accordance with the extended or modified schedule, provided that
Minnesota Power shall not be precluded from asserting that a Force Majeure Event has caused or
may cause a delay in complying with the extended or modified schedule.
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 65 of 107
64
204. The Court shall decide all disputes pursuant to applicable principles of law for
resolving such disputes. In their initial filings with the Court under Paragraph 200, the Parties
shall state their respective positions as to the applicable standard of law for resolving the
particular dispute.
XVII. PERMITS
205. Unless expressly stated otherwise in this Consent Decree, in any instance where
otherwise applicable law or this Consent Decree requires Minnesota Power to secure a permit to
authorize construction or operation of any device, including all preconstruction, construction,
and operating permits required under applicable state law, Minnesota Power shall make such
application in a timely manner. EPA in consultation with MPCA shall use best efforts to review
expeditiously, to the extent applicable, all permit applications submitted by Minnesota Power to
meet the requirements of this Consent Decree.
206. Notwithstanding Paragraph 205, nothing in this Consent Decree shall be
construed to require Minnesota Power to apply for, amend or obtain (1) a PSD or Nonattainment
NSR permit or permit amendment for any physical change in, or any change in the method of
operation of, any Minnesota Power System Unit that would give rise to claims resolved by
Section XI (Resolution of Claims Against Minnesota Power) of this Consent Decree; or (2) any
Title V Permit or other operating permit or permit amendment, or application therefore, related
to or arising from any physical change in, or change in the method of operation of, any System
Unit that would give rise to claims resolved by Section XI (Resolution of Claims Against
Minnesota Power).
207. When permits are required as described in Paragraph 205, Minnesota Power shall
complete and submit applications for such permits to the applicable state agency to allow
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 66 of 107
65
sufficient time for all legally required processing and review of the permit request, including
requests for additional information by the permitting authority. Any failure by Minnesota Power
to submit a timely permit application for Minnesota Power System Units shall bar any use by
Minnesota Power of Section XV (Force Majeure) of this Consent Decree, where a claim of a
Force Majeure Event is based on permitting delays.
208. Notwithstanding the reference to Title V Permits in this Consent Decree, the
enforcement of such permits shall be in accordance with their own terms and the Act and its
implementing regulations. The Title V Permits shall not be enforceable under this Consent
Decree, although any term or limit established by or under this Consent Decree shall be
enforceable under this Consent Decree regardless of whether such term has or will become part
of a Title V Permit, subject to the terms of Section XXVII (Termination) of this Consent Decree.
209. Within one hundred eighty (180) Days after the Date of Entry of this Consent
Decree, Minnesota Power shall modify any applicable Title V Permit application(s), or apply for
amendments of its Title V Permits, to include a schedule for the following Unit-specific and
system-specific performance, operational, maintenance, and control technology requirements
established by this Consent Decree: any applicable (a) Emission Rates, together with their
relevant averaging periods, (b) System-Wide Annual Tonnage Limitations, (c) the requirements
pertaining to the prohibition on netting credits or offsets, and the Surrender of SO2 Allowances
and NOx Allowances, (d) requirements related to the Retirement, Refueling, Repowering, or
Rerouting of any Unit as required or elected under this Decree, (e) the coal limitations required
for Rapids Units 5 and 6 under Paragraph 143, (f) PM Control Device requirements in Paragraph
120, (g) requirements to Continuously Operate pollution control technologies, and to optimize
and Continuously Operate combustion controls, (h) the requirements in Paragraph 131, and (i)
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 67 of 107
66
monitoring and testing requirements.
210. Within one (1) year after the Date of Entry of this Consent Decree, Minnesota
Power shall apply to permanently include the requirements and limitations enumerated in this
Consent Decree as federally enforceable requirements in the Title I/Title V permits for the
Boswell, Taconite Harbor, Laskin, and Rapids Energy Centers. Each such application shall
request that the requirements and limitations enumerated in this Consent Decree become and
remain “applicable requirements” as that term is defined in 40 C.F.R. § 70.2 and be marked in
the permit as non-expiring Title I conditions. The federally enforceable permits shall require
compliance with the following: any applicable (a) Emission Rates, together with their relevant
averaging periods, (b) System-Wide Annual Tonnage Limitations, (c) the requirements
pertaining to the prohibition on netting credits or offsets, and the Surrender of SO2 Allowances
and NOx Allowances, (d) requirements related to the Retirement, Refueling, Repowering, or
Rerouting of any Unit as required or elected under this Decree, (e) the coal limitations required
for Rapids Units 5 and 6 under Paragraph 143, (f) PM Control Device requirements in Paragraph
120, (g) requirements to Continuously Operate pollution control technologies, and to optimize
and Continuously Operate combustion controls, (h) the requirements in Paragraph 131, and (i)
monitoring and testing requirements.
211. Minnesota Power shall provide the United States with a copy of each application
for a federally enforceable permit, as well as a copy of any permit proposed as a result of such
application, to allow for timely participation in any public comment opportunity.
212. Prior to termination of this Consent Decree, Minnesota Power shall obtain
enforceable provisions in its Title V permits that incorporate the following Unit-specific and/or
System-wide performance, operational, maintenance, and control technology requirements
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 68 of 107
67
established by this Consent Decree: any applicable (a) Emission Rates, together with their
relevant averaging periods, (b) System-Wide Annual Tonnage Limitations, (c) the requirements
pertaining to the prohibition on netting credits or offsets, and the Surrender of SO2 Allowances
and NOx Allowances, (d) requirements related to the Retirement, Refueling, Repowering, or
Rerouting of any Unit as required or elected under this Decree, (e) the coal limitations required
for Rapids Units 5 and 6 under Paragraph 143, (f) PM Control Device requirements in Paragraph
120, (g) requirements to Continuously Operate pollution control technologies, and to optimize
and Continuously Operate combustion controls, (h) the requirements in Paragraph 131, and (i)
monitoring and testing requirements.
XVIII. INFORMATION COLLECTION AND RETENTION
213. Any authorized representative of the United States or the State, including, but not
limited to their attorneys, contractors, and consultants, upon presentation of credentials, shall
have a right of entry upon the premises of a Minnesota Power System Unit at any reasonable
time for the purpose of:
a. monitoring the progress of activities required under this Consent Decree;
b. verifying any data or information submitted to the United States in accordance
with the terms of this Consent Decree;
c. obtaining samples and, upon request, splits of any samples taken by Minnesota
Power or its representatives, contractors, or consultants; and
d. assessing Minnesota Power’s compliance with this Consent Decree.
214. Minnesota Power shall retain, and instruct its contractors and agents to preserve,
all non-identical copies of all records and documents (including records and documents in
electronic form) that are now in its or its contractors’ or agents’ possession or control, and that
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 69 of 107
68
directly relate to Minnesota Power’s performance of its obligations under this Consent Decree
for the following periods: (a) until December 31, 2024 for records concerning physical or
operational changes undertaken in accordance with Section IV (NOx Emission Reductions and
Controls), Section V (SO2 Emission Reductions and Controls), and Section VI (PM Emission
Reductions and Controls); and (b) until December 31, 2022 for all other records. This record
retention requirement shall apply regardless of any corporate document retention policy to the
contrary.
215. All information and documents submitted by Minnesota Power pursuant to this
Consent Decree shall be subject to any requests under applicable law providing public disclosure
of documents unless (a) the information and documents are subject to legal privileges or
protection, or (b) Minnesota Power claims and substantiates in accordance with 40 C.F.R. Part 2
that the information and documents contain confidential business information.
216. Nothing in this Consent Decree shall limit the authority of EPA to conduct tests
and inspections at the Minnesota Power System Units under Section 114 of the Act, 42 U.S.C.
§ 7414, or any other applicable federal laws, regulations, or permits

XX. SALES OR TRANSFERS OF OPERATIONAL OR OWNERSHIP INTERESTS
221. If Minnesota Power proposes to sell or transfer an Operational or Ownership
Interest in its Boswell Energy Center, Laskin Energy Center, Taconite Harbor, and Rapids
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 72 of 107
71
Energy Center to an entity unrelated to Minnesota Power (a “Third Party Purchaser”), Minnesota
Power shall advise the Third Party Purchaser in writing of the existence of this Consent Decree
prior to such sale or transfer, and shall send a copy of such written notification to the United
States and MPCA pursuant to Section XIX (Notices) of this Consent Decree at least sixty (60)
Days before such proposed sale or transfer.
222. No sale or transfer of an Operational or Ownership Interest, whether in
compliance with the procedures of this Section or otherwise, shall relieve Minnesota Power of its
obligation to ensure that the terms of this Consent Decree are implemented, unless (1) the
transferee agrees to undertake all of the obligations required by this Consent Decree that may be
applicable to the transferred or purchased Operational or Ownership Interests, and to be
substituted for Minnesota Power as a Party under the Decree pursuant to Section XXIII
(Modification) as to the applicable requirements of this Consent Decree and thus be bound
thereby, and (2) the United States after consultation with MPCA consents to relieve Minnesota
Power of such obligations. The United States may refuse to approve the substitution of the
transferee for Minnesota Power if it determines that the proposed transferee does not possess the
requisite technical abilities or financial means to comply with the applicable Consent Decree
requirements. Minnesota Power shall provide the United States and MPCA with notice of the
date of the planned sale or transfer of an Operational or Ownership Interest before such sale or
transfer occurs, and shall provide the United States and MPCA a copy of any written agreement
to transfer an Operation or Ownership Interest prior to or within 30 Days after such transfer, in
accordance with Section XX (Notices).
223. This Consent Decree shall not be construed to impede the transfer of any
Operational or Ownership Interests between Minnesota Power and any Third Party Purchaser so
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 73 of 107
72
long as the requirements of this Consent Decree are met. This Consent Decree shall not be
construed to prohibit a contractual allocation as between Minnesota Power and any third party
purchaser of Operational or Ownership Interests of the burdens of compliance with this Consent
Decree. Any transfer of an Operational or Ownership Interest in Minnesota Power’s Boswell
Energy Center, Laskin Energy Center, Taconite Harbor, or Rapids Energy Center without
complying with this Section constitutes a violation of this Consent Decree.
224. Minnesota Power may not assign, and may not be released from, any obligation
under this Consent Decree that is not specific to the purchased or transferred Operational or
Ownership Interests, including the obligations set forth in Sections IX (Environmental Mitigation
Projects) and X (Civil Penalty).
225. Paragraphs 221 through 224 of this Consent Decree do not apply if an
Operational or Ownership Interest is sold or transferred solely as collateral security in order to
consummate a financing arrangement (not including a sale-leaseback), so long as Minnesota
Power: (a) remains the operator (as that term is used and interpreted under the Clean Air Act) of
the subject Unit(s); (b) remains subject to and liable for all obligations and liabilities of this
Consent Decree; and (c) supplies EPA and MPCA with the following certification within thirty
(30) Days of the sale or transfer:
“Certification of Change in Ownership Interest Solely for Purpose of Consummating Financing.
We, the Chief Executive Officer and General Counsel of ALLETE, Inc.
(“Minnesota Power”), hereby jointly certify under Title 18 U.S.C. Section 1001, on our own behalf and on behalf of Minnesota Power, that any change in Minnesota Power’s Ownership Interest in any Unit that is caused by the sale or transfer as collateral security of such Ownership Interest in such Unit(s) pursuant to the financing agreement consummated on [insert applicable date] between Minnesota Power and [insert applicable entity]: a) is made solely for the purpose of providing collateral security in order to consummate a financing arrangement; b) does not impair Minnesota Power’s ability, legally or otherwise, to comply
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 74 of 107
73
timely with all terms and provisions of the Consent Decree entered in United
States v. ALLETE, Inc., et al., Civil Action______; c) does not affect Minnesota Power’s operational control of any Unit covered by that Consent Decree in a manner that is inconsistent with Minnesota Power’s performance of its obligations under the Consent Decree; and d) in no way affects the status of Minnesota Power’s obligations or liabilities under that Consent Decree.”
XXI. EFFECTIVE DATE
226. The effective date of this Consent Decree shall be the Date of Entry.
XXII. RETENTION OF JURISDICTION
227. The Court shall retain jurisdiction of this case after entry of this Consent Decree
to enforce compliance with the terms and conditions of this Consent Decree and to take any
action necessary or appropriate for the interpretation, construction, execution, or modification of
the Consent Decree, or for adjudication of disputes. During the term of this Consent Decree, any
Party to this Consent Decree may apply to the Court for any relief necessary to construe or
effectuate this Consent Decree.
XXIII. MODIFICATION
228. The terms of this Consent Decree may be modified only by a subsequent written
agreement signed by the Parties. Where the modification constitutes a material change to any
term of this Consent Decree, it shall be effective only upon approval by the Court.
XXIV. GENERAL PROVISIONS
229. When this Consent Decree specifies that Minnesota Power shall achieve and
maintain a 30-Day Rolling Average Emission Rate, the Parties expressly recognize that
compliance with such 30-Day Rolling Average Emission Rate shall commence immediately
upon the date specified, and that compliance as of such specified date (e.g., December 30) shall
be determined based on data from that date and the 29 prior Unit Operating Days (e.g.,
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 75 of 107
74
December 1-29).
230. When this Consent Decree specifies (a) that Minnesota Power shall achieve and
maintain a 12-Month Rolling Average Emission Rate by a certain compliance date or (b) that
Minnesota Power shall operate a Rapids Unit to achieve a specified 12-Month Percent Heat Input
from Coal by a certain compliance date, then the Month containing that date if that date is the
first Day of the Month, or if that date is not the first Day of the Month then the next complete
Month, shall be the first Month used in the calculation of the specified 12-Month limitation. For
example, if the specified 12-Month Rolling Average Emission Rate is to be achieved starting
January 1, 2013, then January 2013 is the first Month used in the calculation of the first
applicable 12-Month Rolling Average Emission Rate, such that the first complete 12-Month
Rolling Average Emission Rate period would, provided that the Unit fires Fossil Fuel in each
Month, include January 2013 through December 2013.
231. This Consent Decree is not a permit. Compliance with the terms of this Consent
Decree does not guarantee compliance with all applicable federal, state, or local laws or
regulations. The Emission Rates and removal efficiencies set forth herein do not relieve
Minnesota Power from any obligation to comply with other state and federal requirements under
the Clean Air Act. In any subsequent administrative or judicial action initiated by the United
States for injunctive relief or civil penalties relating to any of the facilities in the Minnesota
Power System as covered by this Consent Decree, Minnesota Power shall not assert any defense
or claim based upon principles of waiver, res judicata, collateral estoppel, issue preclusion, claim
preclusion, or claim splitting, or any other defense based upon the contention that the claims
raised by the United States in the subsequent proceeding were brought, or should have been
brought, in the instant case; provided, however, that nothing in this Paragraph is intended to
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 76 of 107

affect the validity of Section XI (Resolution of Claims Against Minnesota Power).
232. Nothing in this Consent Decree shall relieve Minnesota Power of its obligation to
comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations, including, but not
limited to, the Clean Water Act and the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
(NPDES) implementing regulations, National Ambient Air Quality Standards, the National
Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants From Coal and Oil-Fired Electric Utility Steam
Generating Units (Utility MACT), and Standards of Performance for Fossil-Fuel-Fired Electric
Utility, Industrial-Commercial-Institutional, and Small Industrial Commercial-Institutional
Steam Generating Units (Utility NSPS). Nothing in this Consent Decree shall be construed to
provide any relief from the emission limits or deadlines for the installation of pollution controls
or the implementation of other pollution control-related measures specified in these regulations.
233. Subject to the provisions in Section XI (Resolution of Claims Against Minnesota
Power), Section XVI (Dispute Resolution), and XIV (Stipulated Penalties), nothing contained in
this Consent Decree shall be construed to prevent or limit the rights of the United States or
MPCA to obtain penalties or injunctive relief under the Act or other federal, state, or local
statutes, regulations, or permits.
234. Each limit and/or other requirement established by or under this Consent Decree
is a separate, independent requirement.
235. Performance standards, emissions limits, and other quantitative standards set by
or under this Consent Decree must be met to the number of significant digits in which the
standard or limit is expressed. For example, an Emission Rate of 0.100 is not met if the actual
Emission Rate is 0.101. Minnesota Power shall round the fourth significant digit to the nearest
third significant digit, or the third significant digit to the nearest second significant digit,
CASE 0:14-cv-02911-ADM-LIB Document 3-1 Filed 07/16/14 Page 77 of 107
76
depending upon whether the limit is expressed to three or two significant digits. For example, if
an actual Emission Rate is 0.1004, that shall be reported as 0.100, and shall be in compliance
with an Emission Rate of 0.100, and if an actual Emission Rate is 0.1005, that shall be reported
as 0.101, and shall not be in compliance with an Emission Rate of 0.100. Minnesota Power shall
report data to the number of significant digits in which the standard or limit is expressed.
236. This Consent Decree does not limit, enlarge, or affect the rights of any Party to
this Consent Decree as against any third parties.
237. This Consent Decree constitutes the final, complete, and exclusive agreement and
understanding among the Parties with respect to the settlement embodied in this Consent Decree,
and supercedes all prior agreements and understandings among the Parties related to the subject
matter herein. No document, representation, inducement, agreement, understanding, or promise
constitutes any part of this Consent Decree or the settlement it represents, nor shall they be used
in construing the terms of this Consent Decree.
238. Each Party to this action shall bear its own costs and attorneys' fees.

APPENDIX A ENVIRONMENTAL MITIGATION PROJECTS
Minnesota Power shall spend at least $4,200,000 implementing approved Environmental Mitigation Projects (“Project” or “Projects”) as described below, and shall comply with the requirements of this Appendix and with Section IX of the Consent Decree (Environmental Mitigation Projects) to ensure that the environmental benefits from those Environmental Mitigation Projects described below that it implements are achieved. Nothing in the Consent Decree or this Appendix shall require Minnesota Power to spend any more than a total of $4,200,000 on Environmental Mitigation Projects. I. Overall Schedule and Budget for Environmental Mitigation Projects
A. Within one hundred twenty (120) days of the Date of Entry, unless otherwise specified by this Appendix, Minnesota Power shall (1) submit proposed plans (“Project Plans”) for the Projects specified in Sections II and III to EPA for review and approval pursuant to Section XIII of the Consent Decree (Review and Approval of Submittals) and in accordance with the deadlines established in this Appendix, and (2) select additional Projects to fund and implement from those presented in Sections IV through VII of this Appendix and submit proposed Project Plans for those projects to EPA for review and approval pursuant to Section XIII of the Consent Decree (Review and Approval of Submittals) and in accordance with the deadlines established in this Appendix. The Projects for which Project Plans are submitted must total at least $4 million in Project Dollars. EPA reserves the right to disapprove any Project should EPA determine, after an analysis of Minnesota Power’s Project Plan and the associated potential environmental impacts that the Project is not consistent with the Consent Decree’s objective to achieve substantial environmental benefits for the Project Dollars expended. If Minnesota Power opts not to submit a Project Plan for a Project described in Sections IV through VII of this Appendix, Minnesota Power will not have any obligations for such Project pursuant to the Consent Decree, including performance, reporting, or closure requirements for that Project, provided that Minnesota Power is otherwise in compliance with the Environmental Mitigation Project requirements of the Consent Decree. Minnesota Power is not required to complete a Project Plan for the Voyageurs National Park Restoration Project described at Section VIII of this Appendix.
B. Minnesota Power may, at its election, consolidate the Project Plans required by
this Appendix into one or more Project Plans.
C. Unless otherwise specified by this Appendix, Minnesota Power may, at its election, spread its payments for Environmental Mitigation Projects over the five-year period commencing upon approval of each Project Plan. Minnesota Power may also accelerate its payments to better effectuate a Project Plan, but Minnesota Power shall not be entitled to any reduction in the nominal amount of the required payments by virtue of the early expenditures. Any funds designated for a specific
