Xote that this is a first approximation. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agincy no longer encourages the use of rollback calculations as a means
of demonstrating NAAQS attainment. However, in the absence of dispersion modeling results, it is the only measure available and is therefore
usud here.
Although the SAROAD data bank indicate no violations, supplementary data from local sources indicates that the standard is being exceeded in

Coal quantity is 10 tons/yr, oil quantity is 10 gal/yr, gas quantity is 10 ft /yr.
Estimates are based on 1971 fuel use patterns except for the Coleman plant, which was
based on the 1972 fuel use pattern and the Ohio River #1 and Mill Creek plants, which
are based on average coal use for Kentucky power plants in 1972.
Data from U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Region IV Office.
cFinal compliance date for the control of sulfur oxide emissions for this AQCR is
July 1, 1977.
Final compliance date for the control of sulfur oxide emissions for this AQCR is
July 1, 1978,
eFinal compliance date for the control of sulfur oxide emissions for this AQCR is

Plant which is based on the 1972 fuel use and the Ohio River #1 and Mill Creek plants, which are based on
average coal use for Kentucky power plants in 1972) .
Maximum allowable % S was determined by U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Region IV Office.
°Final compliance date for the control of sulfur oxide emissions for this AQCR is July 1, 1977.
Final compliance date for the control of sulfur oxide emissions for this AQCR is July 1, 1978.
eFinal compliance date for the control of sulfur oxide emissions for this AQCR is July 1, 1979.
