(ii) The unit's heat input, as determined in accordance with subpart H of this part, for the control period in the year prior to the year of the control period for which the NOX allocations are being calculated.
(2) The Administrator will allocate NOX allowances to the unit in an amount equaling the heat input determined under paragraph (b)(1) of this section multiplied by the lesser of the unit's baseline NOX emissions rate determined under §97.84(c) or the most stringent State or federal NOX emissions limitation applicable to the unit during the control period, divided by 2,000 lb/ton, and rounded to the nearest whole number of NOX allowances as appropriate.
