Not without permits in hand. Thus, once JBII gets the permits then they can proceed. I do not think NYS DEC will allow JBII to proceed and have the permits be worked out later, in the background.
It might only take another 2 months for the DEC to get the paperwork through. In the big picture, that is not a lot of time. Moreover, it would not set a legal precedent. Operating the P2O while waiting for permits, IMO will not happen. If that was the case, then others could argue the same thing for any pending permit they have, regardless of the application.
methylperoxy radical (CH3O2)
In atmospheric chemistry and air pollution and related fields, nitrogen oxides refers specifically to NOx (NO and NO2).
NO and NO2 are quite reactive but nevertheless quite stable when isolated.
Why is NO a concern? Nitric oxide (NO), which also contributes to the natural acidity of rainwater. Sulfur dioxide (SO2) and NO have been linked to acid rain production in NYS.
DEC website: While many areas of New York State are not sensitive to acidity because of limestone deposits or soils which neutralize the acid, the Adirondacks, Catskills, Hudson Highlands, Rensselaer Plateau and parts of Long Island are particularly sensitive to acid deposition. The soil and bedrock in these areas are not able to counteract the acid in the rain and snow.
Having lived in NYS for +30 years, having friends that are environmental science majors and being a scientist myself, I understand this simple the chemistry.
