N.Y. Comp. Codes R. & Regs. tit. 6, § 220-2.3 – Gaseous emissions from glass melting furnaces.

(a) The owner or operator of a glass melting furnace located at a glass plant that meets the applicability requirements of section 220-2.1 of this Subpart must submit a reasonably available control technology (RACT) analysis to the department for emissions of oxides of nitrogen (NO_x) from the furnace that proposes a RACT emission limit(s), and identifies the procedures and monitoring equipment to be used to demonstrate compliance with the proposed RACT emission limit(s). The RACT emissions limit(s) shall be expressed in pounds of NO_x per ton of glass produced.
1. (1) By December 1, 2010 the owner or operator of a glass melting furnace that was in operation prior to the effective date of this Subpart must submit a RACT analysis, and an application for a permit modification in accordance with the provisions of Subpart 201-6 of this Title unless the existing NO_x control equipment and emission limit(s) are determined to be RACT. RACT, as approved by the department, must be implemented by July 1, 2012.
2. (2) The owner or operator of a glass melting furnace that was not in operation prior to the effective date of this Subpart must submit a RACT analysis prior to start up of the furnace. RACT, as approved by the department, must be implemented upon start up.
3. (3) RACT analyses must include the available NO_x control technologies, the projected effectiveness of the technologies considered, the costs for installation and operation for each of the technologies, and the technology and the appropriate emission limit(s) selected as RACT considering the costs for installation and operation of the technology. For a glass melting furnace that was in operation prior to the effective date of this Subpart and for which the existing NO_x control equipment has been determined to not be RACT, the RACT analysis must also include a schedule for installation of control equipment.
4. (4) Approved RACT determinations will be submitted by the department to the United States Environmental Protection Agency for approval as separate State Implementation Plan revisions.
(b) The owner or operator of a glass melting furnace may opt to comply with subdivision (a) of this section and section 220-2.5(b) of this Subpart by shutting down the furnace. An owner or operator choosing this option shall submit an application for a federally enforceable permit modification by December 1st, 2010 wherein the owner or operator commits to permanently shut down the furnace by July 1st, 2012.
