Boiler Major Source applies to a boiler in a facility with actual emissions of Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAPs) greater than 10 tons per year of a single HAP or greater than 25 tons per year of total HAPs combined. EPA dictates that Boiler Major Source facilities must use the Maximum Available Control Technologies (MACT) or management practices to reduce emissions of HAPs.
For facilities that had existing Boiler Major Sources, the Initial Notification Report and Notification of Compliance Status to the State and US EPA was due by May 31, 2013. Additionally, existing Boiler Major Sources had to conduct an Energy Assessment and initial tune-up by January 31, 2016.
