_____
1 project emission potential threshold.
2 both filterable and condensable fractions are to be included (see definitions of PM-10 and PM-2.5 in Part 200 of this Title).
3 measured as CO2 equivalents.
4 – values only represent the Significant Project Threshold as netting is not allowed for greenhouse gases.
