SUMMARY:

The proposed rule amendments exclude some facilities that produce ethanol by natural fermentation, including some ethanol fuel production facilities, from being considered a “chemical process plant” for purposes of qualifying for an exemption from the state’s “prevention of significant deterioration” air permitting rules.
