offsets of greater emissions of acid deposition precursors from a
facility or stationary source against lower emissions from the same or
another facility or stationary source within the state. Any such offsets
or credits shall be adjusted to reflect the proximity of the subject
facility or stationary source to sensitive receptor areas.
