CHAPTER I--ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY (CONTINUED)
PART 57--PRIMARY NONFERROUS SMELTER ORDERS--Table of Contents
Subpart B--The Application and the NSO Process
Sec. 57.205 Submission of supplementary information upon relaxation of
an SO2 SIP emission limitation.
(a) In the event an SO2 SIP limit is relaxed subsequent
to EPA approval or issuance of a second period NSO, the smelter issued
the NSO shall submit to the issuing agency and EPA such supplementary
information that EPA considers appropriate for purposes of determining
whether the means of compliance with the new SIP limit are adequately
demonstrated to be reasonably available under the financial eligibility
tests specified in Sec. 57.102(b)(3). The smelter shall submit such
information within sixty days of notification by EPA. This time limit
may be extended by EPA for good cause.
(b) Upon receipt of any supplementary information required under
paragraph (a), the issuing agency shall promptly reevaluate the
availability of the means of compliance with the new SIP limit under the
NSO eligibility tests specified in Sec. 57.102(b)(3). If the issuing
agency determines that the demonstrated control technology necessary to
attain the new SO2 SIP limit is adequately demonstrated to be
reasonably available under the eligibility tests, so as to permit the
smelter to comply with the new SIP limit on or before January 1, 1988,
the NSO shall be amended within the time contemplated by Sec. 57.202(a)
after receipt of the supplementary information. Such amendment shall
require compliance with the new SO2 SIP limit as
expeditiously as practicable in accordance with Sec. 57.201(d)(3). The
issuing agency, if not EPA, shall promptly submit its determination and
any necessary NSO amendments to EPA.
(c) EPA shall take action to approve or disapprove the issuing
agency's determination and NSO amendment, if any, within a reasonable
time after receipt of such determination and amendment.
(d) If EPA disapproves the issuing agency's determination or NSO
amendment, or if a smelter fails to submit any supplementary information
as required under paragraph (a), EPA and/or the issuing agency shall
take appropriate remedial action. EPA shall take appropriate remedial
action if the issuing agency does not make any determination and
amendment required by this section within the time contemplated by
Sec. 57.202(a).
