assist

their

applicability

...

determinations

...

-

...

the

...

"applicability

...

tool".

...

This

...

tool

...

provides

...

estimates

...

of

...

emissions

...

based

...

on

...

easily

...

determined

...

inputs

...

such

...

as

...

major

...

equipment

...

or

...

operational

...

...

tool

...

is

...

designed

...

to

...

help

...

potential

...

reporters

...

comply

...

with

...

the

...

rule,

...

compliance

...

with

...

all

...

Federal,

...

State,

the

...

subject

...

only

...

serves

as

...

a

...

guide

determine

...

those

facilities

...

that

...

are

...

clearly

...

well

...

below

...

the

...

reporting

...

threshold,

...

those

clearly

above,

...

and

those

...

close

...

to

...

the

...

threshold

...

who

...

will

...

need

...

to

collect

further
