SOURCE'S IMPACTS (µg/m3)
For the criteria air pollutant emissions, the source's impact analysis is not required at this time per the Colorado
Modeling Guideline for Air Quality Permits, Table 1. Therefore, it is assumed that the source, as proposed, will not
cause any violation of the National Ambient Air Quality Standard.
SOURCE CLASSIFICATION
The project has the potential to emit (PTE) of 703.2 tons per year of Carbon monoxide (CO). The draft permit has
limitations that will reduce emissions to 90.0 tons per year of CO. Since this project has the potential to emit greater
than 100 tons per year of CO, but is willing to accept limits to bring the emissions below the 100 tons per year of
CO major source level, this project is considered to be a synthetic minor source for the Title V Operating Permit and
Prevention of Sgnificant Deterioration (PD) programs.
