Unlike the criteria emissions currently reported, I only have to report the emissions of the new pollutants as a facility-wide total. Is that correct?
A5: Not exactly. The greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide and methane), as well as the 36 TAPs may be reported as a facility-wide total. However, since PM2.5 and ammonia are essentially a subset of particulate matter, these emissions must be reported at the equipment level, the same as for TSP and PM-10. This level of PM2.5 and ammonia reporting detail is required by the USEPA.
