2006 Questionnaire
The 2006 Questionnaires are based on 2004 production data. The intent of the Questionnaire was to provide data for the development of the NMCP and to begin an inventory of thermal units applicable to the NvMACT process.

 

Phase-1 Application
The purpose of Phase-1 is to issue permits that require the continued proper operation of existing mercury controls and to implement work practice standards on units without controls to minimize mercury emissions until NvMACT is determined. Phase-1 permits do not have mercury emission limits. Mercury emission limits are established in Phase-2 after the Maximum Achievable Control Technology is determined for every thermal unit (which is not De Minimis). Phase-1 permits also define the stack testing requirements. Please note that applications are subject to change until permit is issued.

 

Phase-2 Application
The Phase-2 applications contain the NvMACT analysis wherein facilites propose the Maximun Achievable Control Technology for thermal units. The Phase-2 permits contain a performance standard (emission limit) for mercury emissions along with monitoring, record keeping and stack testing requirements. Please note that applications are subject to change until permit is issued.

 

Proposed NvMACT This document is currently being updated.
Please check back soon.

The Phase-2 applications contain the proposed NvMACT emissions controls. They applications have been summarized in the provided spreadsheet. Please note that proposed NvMACT does not constitute NvMACT. Final NvMACT is proposed when the draft Phase-2 Mercury Operating Permit goes to public notice and is finalized in final permit issuance.

 

Mercury Emissions Stack Test Reports
Stack tests are provided as complete reports in PDF format. Reports are scanned after NDEP review and added to the download list. The download list contains all known historic tests performed prior to the 2006 NMCP test requirements. Please note that the reports may be large; please be patient during download.
