Air Quality Division BART Application Analysis January 15, 2010 COMPANY: Oklahoma Gas and Electric FACILITY: Muskogee Generating Station FACILITY LOCATION: Muskogee, Muskogee County, Oklahoma TYPE OF OPERATION: (2) 572 MW Steam Electric Generating Units REVIEWER: ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, Senior Engineering Manager ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Engineering Manager I. PURPOSE OF APPLICATION II. ▇▇▇▇ ELIGIBILITY DETERMINATION (1) have the potential to emit 250 tons or more of a visibility-impairing air pollutant; (2) were in existence on August 7, 1977 but not in operation prior to August 7, 1962; and (3) whose operations fall within one or more of the specifically listed source categories in 40 CFR 51.301 (including fossil-fuel fired steam electric plants of more than 250 mmBtu/hr heat input and fossil-fuel boilers of more than 250 mmBtu/hr heat input). Muskogee Units 4 and 5 are fossil-fuel fired boilers with heat inputs greater than 250 mmBtu/hr. Both units were in existence prior to August 7, 1977 but not in operation prior to August 7, 1962. Based on a review of existing emissions data, both units have the potential to emit more than 250 tons per year of NOx, SO2 and PM10, visibility impairing pollutants. Therefore, Muskogee Units 4 and 5 meet the definition of a BART-eligible source. ▇▇▇▇ is required for any BART-eligible source that emits any air pollutant which may reasonably be anticipated to cause or contribute to any impairment of visibility in a Class I Area. OG&E Muskogee Generating Station BART Review January 15, 2010 DEQ has determined that an individual source will be considered to "contribute to visibility impairment" if emissions from the source result in a change in visibility, measured as a change in deciviews (∆-dv), that is greater than or equal to 0.5 dv in a Class I area. Visibility impact modeling conducted by OG&E determined that the maximum predicted visibility impacts from Muskogee Units 4 and 5 exceeded the 0.5 ∆-dv threshold at the Wichita Mountains, Caney Creek Upper Buffalo, and Hercules Glade Class I Areas. Therefore, Muskogee Units 4 and 5 were determined to be BART applicable sources, subject to the BART determination requirements.
