    (a) This subpart is not applicable to NSOs which contain a SIP 
compliance schedule in accordance with Sec. 57.705.
    (b) The requirements of this subpart may be waived with respect to a 
smelter if the owner of that smelter submits with its NSO application a 
written certification by a corporate official authorized to make such a 
certification that the smelter will either comply with its 
SO2 SIP limits by January 2, 1988 or close after January 1, 
1988 until it can comply with such limits.
    (c) Except as provided in paragraphs (a) and (b), each NSO shall
