Federal NOX Budget Trading Program: Applicability Determination

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of applicability determination under Federal NOX 
Budget Trading Program.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: EPA established 40 CFR part 97, the Federal NOX 
Budget Trading Program (``the Program''), to reduce interstate 
transport of ozone under section 126 of the Clean Air Act (``section 
126''). The Program applies to existing or new large electric 
generating units (``EGU's'') and large non-EGU's (as defined at 40 CFR 
52.34) in states subject to section 126. EPA finds, in an applicability 
determination dated November 30, 2001, that Point 30 at Weirton Steel 
Corporation's Plant 0001 in West Virginia is not subject to the Program 
because it is not a ``boiler,'' ``combustion turbine,'' or ``combined 
cycle system'' under 40 CFR 97.2. Since Point 30 is not subject to the 
Program, NOX allowances will not be allocated for this unit 
in EPA's NOX Allowance Tracking System.

DATES: Any comments regarding this applicability determination must be 
submitted in writing to EPA at the address below no later than January 
10, 2002.

ADDRESSES: U.S. EPA, Clean Air Markets Division (6204N), Attn: Robert 
Miller, 1200 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20460.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Robert Miller, U.S. EPA Headquarters, 
Clean Air Markets Division, (202) 564-9077.

    Dated: November 30, 2001.

Air and Radiation.
