In order to comply with the updated Rule 1160, PG&E updated the ACS for the Facility in order to generate an additional 10% emissions reduction from the baseline level of emissions established in 1991, for a total reduction of 88% from the 1991 baseline level. These updates include accepting a reduced aggregate annual limit of 2,600 hours of operation per 12-months starting December 1st and ending November 30th on engines K-2, K-5, K-6, K-8, and K-9, and lowering the NOx emission limit on engines K-1, K-3, K-4, K-7, and K-10 to 125 ppmv. No physical modifications are proposed for the engines to comply with the revised limits. The 2SLB engines affected by the ECP revisions are operated under the following MDAQMD PTOs: K-1, B005021; K-2, B005022; K-3, B004812; K-4, B005023; K-5, B005024; K-6, B005019; K-7, B004699; K-8, B005025; K-9, B005026; K-10, B005027.
