monthly monitoring method, under 40
CFR part 60, subpart Dc?
A2: Yes. EPA approves the use of fuel
receipts from a gas supplier to serve as
monthly monitoring method under
NSPS subpart Dc.
Q3: Could EPA determine whether the
amount of natural gas used by the
affected facility (vaporizer) can be
determined by the following calculation
method rather than direct measurement:
(monthly vaporizer gas usage) =
(monthly site natural gas usage from
fuel bill)¥(average monthly site natural
gas usage before installation of the
vaporizer).
A3: Yes. EPA finds that the amount of
natural gas used by the affected facility
(vaporizer) can be determined by the
calculation method proposed rather
than by direct measurement, as long as
the average monthly site natural gas
usage before installation of the vaporizer
was nearly constant and will remain the
same with no new natural gas usage.
Abstract for [0700026]:
Q1: Does EPA approve a request for a
reduction in the fuel usage
recordkeeping requirement in 40 CFR
part 60, subpart Dc, § 60.48c, from daily
to monthly for two 25.13 MMBTU/hr
boilers fueled by propane and located at
Glanbia Foods Inc. (Glanbia) facility in
Richfield, Idaho?
A1: Yes. EPA approves the request for
a reduction in the fuel usage
recordkeeping requirement in 40 CFR
60.48c from daily to monthly. This
approval is based on a memorandum
dated February 20, 1992, from the EPA
Office of Air Quality Planning and
Standards, which states that there is
little value in requiring daily
recordkeeping of the amounts of fuel
combusted for an affected unit that fires
only natural gas, and the definition of
natural gas, from the Acid Rain
Program, in 40 CFR part 72.
Q2. Does EPA approve one gas meter
for two boilers that will measure the
total natural gas usage per month?
A2. Yes. When more than one boiler
is firing propane simultaneously, they
will divide each boiler design heat input
capacity by the total of the design heat
input capacities of each boiler, and use
this to prorate the natural gas usage of
each boiler on a monthly basis. EPA
determines that this will adequately
determine the fuel usage by each boiler.

Q1: Does EPA approve a reduction in
the fuel usage recordkeeping
requirement in 40 CFR part 60, subpart
Dc, § 60.48c, from daily to monthly for
boilers fueled by natural gas, diesel fuel
and/or biomass located at the Glanbia
Foods Incorporated facility in Gooding,
Idaho?

A1: EPA finds that boiler No. 1 is not
subject to NSPS subpart Dc
requirements since it was installed
before the applicability date of the rule.
EPA approves the request from Glanbia
for a reduction in the fuel usage recordkeeping requirement in 40 CFR 60.48c
of Subpart Dc from daily to monthly for
Boilers 2, 3, and 4, which burn natural
gas exclusively or natural gas with
diesel fuel as a backup. The approval for
boilers No. 2 through 4 is based on a
memorandum dated February 20, 1992,
from the EPA Office of Air Quality
Planning and Standards which states
that there is little value in requiring
daily recordkeeping of the amounts of
fuel combusted for an affected unit that
fires only natural gas or natural gas with
clean low-sulfur fuel oil (sulfur content
less than 0.5 percent) as a backup.
Q2: Does EPA approve one gas meter
for several boilers fueled by natural gas
that will measure the total natural gas
usage per month?
A2: Yes. EPA determines that this will
adequately determine the fuel usage by
each boiler. When more than one boiler
is firing natural gas simultaneously,
they will divide each boiler design heat
input capacity by the total of the design
heat input capacities of each boiler, and
use this to prorate the natural gas usage
of each boiler on a monthly basis. For
boilers 2 and 3, which are capable of
firing low sulfur diesel fuel, each boiler
will maintain individual fuel oil meters.
Q3: Does EPA approve a reduction in
the fuel usage record-keeping
requirement in 40 CFR 60.48c from
daily to monthly for boiler No. 5, which
is fueled by biogas, from the wastewater
treatment effluent process as the
primary fuel and can burn natural gas as
a backup?
A3: No. EPA cannot approve this
request at this time because the decision
to reduce this requirement for certain
boilers is based on the assumption that
that fuel has low sulfur content. The
sulfur content of natural gas is well
known; however, the use of biogas in
the context of this regulation has not
been addressed before and it is
uncertain what the sulfur content of
biogas would be in this particular case.
Abstract for [0700028]:
Q: Is 40 CFR part 60, subpart Dc,
applicable to Trident’s Boiler No. 6,
which was installed at the facility in
1994 but which the manufacturer’s
nameplate shows as constructed in
1976?
A: No. NSPS subpart Dc applies to
‘‘Each steam generating unit for which
construction, modification, or
reconstruction is commenced after June
9, 1989.’’ The boiler was operated prior
to June 9, 1989, elsewhere in Alaska

before its relocation and it has not been
rebuilt, reconstructed, or modified since
its original installation. Under the NSPS
general provisions, 40 CFR 60.14(e)(6),
the relocation or change in ownership of
an existing facility shall not, by itself, be
considered a modification.
Abstract for [0700063]:
Q: Do 40 CFR part 60, subpart NNN
(Distillation Operations in the Synthetic
Organic Chemical Industry (SOCMI))
and 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart RRR
(Reactor Operations in the SOCMI),
apply to the manufacturing of biodiesel
and glycerin from soybean oil and
methanol at the North Prairie
Productions (NPP) facility located in
Evansville, Wisconsin?
A: Yes. NSPS subparts NNN and RRR
apply to the production of glycerin from
soybean oil and methanol at the NPP
biodiesel manufacturing facility,
although certain exemptions may apply
to the facility based on its production
capacity and vent stream characteristics.
The Agency finds that the production of
glycerin in the process described by
NPP is SOCMI, as both glycerin and
methanol are SOCMI chemicals and
appear on the chemical use trees.
Additionally, the NPP process will use
distillation and reaction operations, the
units defined as affected facilities under
Subparts NNN and RRR, respectively,
which will result in emissions of
volatile organic compounds (VOCs),
which are the pollutants of concern
under those NSPS.
