  1. PSD Workgroup David Klemp State of Montana

  2. Tasks Assigned to Workgroup • Cumulative AQRV Impact Analysis • Prepare White Paper clarifying the responsibilities of state agencies and permit applicants regarding cumulative analyses for AQRVs • Increment Consumed or Adverse AQRV Impact • Identify alternatives available to a state when there is either an exceedance of the increment or if there is an adverse impact on an AQRV • Issues discussed during November 2002 FLAG meeting in Denver

  3. Cumulative AQRV Impact Analysis • States believe cumulative AQRV analysis not required and have implemented PSD permitting program this way • FLMs believe there is a basis for requiring a cumulative AQRV analysis and want this done during PSD permit review • EPA – to date hasn’t commented on lack of cumulative analysis in PSD permit reviews?? • FLM attorney starting legal review of this issue • After FLM legal analysis circulated and reviewed, Workgroup will determine if EPA legal opinion is warranted

  4. Increment Consumed or Adverse AQRV Impact • States will be surveyed to determine their experiences • Information received, along with the statute, will be the basis of a White Paper on these issues

  5. Anticipated Schedule • Survey should be sent to states by end of April 2003 • States given two weeks to respond • Depending on results and participation in survey, volunteers from the Workgroup may be solicited to draft White Paper • White Paper completed by fall 2003
