10 CSR 10-6.040 (amendment) Reference Methods
This proposed amendment will update the incorporation by reference in section (4) to include the latest Federal Register promulgation dates. Recent Federal Register Notices add Federal Equivalency Methods (FEMs) for ambient monitoring of nitrogen dioxide and fine particulate matter; and two FEMs for laboratory analysis of lead. Adding the latest Federal Register promulgation dates to this rule will allow the latest FEMs to be used to meet state requirements. The ASTM Methods for determining parameters such as fuel sulfur and heat content are also being updated to the latest versions available.

10 CSR 10-6.060 (amendment) Construction Permits Required
This proposed amendment will incorporate by reference the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's) revisions to plantwide applicability limitations (PALs) for Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions finalized with Step 3 of the GHG Tailoring Rule. These revisions give facilities subject to GHG permitting the option of establishing PALs on a carbon dioxide equivalent basis and documents that EPA is retaining the current GHG permitting thresholds, ensuring that GHG permitting requirements continue to apply to large sources only. The rulemaking will also remove the EPA’s grandfather provision that allowed certain sources to use coarse particulate matter as a surrogate for fine particulate matter during the transition to PM2.5 permitting. This administrative change which will update the incorporation by reference date for the GHG PAL option will not affect any Missouri sources. Other revisions include correcting the definition of "regulated NSR pollutant", modifying the notification period for initial equipment start-up to improve tracking of new/modified equipment and testing, and clarifying de minimis permit air quality analysis requirements.

10 CSR 10-5.570 (amendment) Control of Sulfur Emissions From Stationary Boilers
This proposed amendment will clarify that the brewery sulfur dioxide (SO2) emission limit applies only to the total SO2 emissions from applicable units within an installation and not the total SO2e missions from the entire brewery installation. This rulemaking will also remove definitions in this rule that can be found in 10 CSR 10-6.020 Definitions and Common Reference Tables.

10 CSR 10-6.400 (amendment) Restriction of Emission of Particulate Matter From Industrial Processes
This proposed amendment will add a hierarchy of various compliance methods, providing options for demonstrating compliance in addition to stack tests, and clarify that this rule limits filterable particulate matter only. This rulemaking will also remove definitions in this rule that can be found in 10 CSR 10-6.020 Definitions and Common Reference Tables.

10 CSR 10-6.110 (amendment) Reporting Emission Data, Emission Fees, and Process Information
This proposed amendment will reference the applicable year(s) for the emission fee requirement to meet section 643.079 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri which requires emission fees to be set at least every three (3) years by rule. There will be no change to the fees at this time. This rulemaking also proposes to better reflect information required in emission reports and clarifies the types and frequency of reports to be submitted to the department’s Air Pollution Control Program for Emissions Inventory Questionnaire purposes, including a revision to Table 4. This rulemaking will also remove definitions in this rule that can be found in 10 CSR 10-6.020 Definitions and Common Reference Tables.
