Title: Clarification of Reconsideration of New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Electric Utility, Industrial, Commercial, and Institutional Steam Generating Units 
Abstract: The amendments will address minor issues that have recently come to the agency's attention and clarify the regulatory text to be consistent with the intent (as described in the response to comments document) of the final action of the "Reconsideration of New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Electric Utility, Industrial, Commercial, and Institution Steam Generating Units" that was signed on 13 June 2007. Amendments include clarifying that both utility and industrial steam generating units burning low sulfur oil are exempt from continuously monitoring opacity, adding monitoring requirements for subpart D units complying with the optional 30 day SO2 standard, clarifying control device monitoring requirements for new utility units that do not install PM CEMS, and clarifying requirements for industrial sources burning coke oven gas. The amendments will not change the cost of the rule.
