National Emission Standards for
Hazardous Air Pollutants for the
Portland Cement Manufacturing
Industry and Standards of
Performance for Portland Cement
Plants: Amendments
Environmental Protection
Agency.
ACTION: Proposed rule.
AGENCY:
On February 12, 2013, the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
finalized amendments to the national
emission standards for the control of
hazardous air pollutants (NESHAP)
from the new and existing Portland
cement manufacturing industry at major
sources of hazardous air pollutants
(HAP). Subsequently, the EPA has
become aware of certain minor technical
errors in those amendments, and is,
accordingly, proposing amendments
and technical corrections to the final
rule. In addition, the EPA plans to
remove rule provisions establishing an
affirmative defense in the final technical
correction rule.
DATES: Comments. Comments must be
received on or before January 20, 2015,
or 30 days after date of public hearing,
if later.
Public Hearing. If anyone contacts the
EPA requesting to speak at a public
hearing by November 24, 2014, we will
hold a public hearing on December 4,
2014 on the EPA campus at 109 T.W.
Alexander Drive, Research Triangle
Park, North Carolina.

II. Background
In 2010, the EPA established NESHAP
for the Portland Cement source category.
75 FR 54970 (September 9, 2010).
Specifically, the EPA established
emission standards for mercury (Hg),
hydrogen chloride (HCl), total
hydrocarbons (THC) (or in the
alternative, organic HAP (oHAP), and
particulate matter (PM). These
standards, established pursuant to
section 112 (d) of the Act (CAA),
reflected performance of maximum
available control technology. Following
court remand, Portland Cement Ass’n v.
EPA, 665 F. 3d 177 (D.C. Cir. 2011), the
EPA amended some of these standards
in 2013, and established a new
compliance date for the amended
standards. 78 FR 10006 (Feb. 12, 2013).
All of these actions were upheld by the
United States Court of Appeals for the
District of Columbia Circuit. Natural
Resources Defense Council v. EPA, 749
F. 3d 1055 (D.C. Cir. 2014). The court,
however, also vacated a provision of the
rule establishing an affirmative defense
when violations of the standards
occurred because of malfunctions. 749
F. 3d at 1063–64. In light of the court’s
vacatur, the regulatory provisions
establishing the affirmative defense are
null and void. Thus, the EPA plans to
remove the affirmative defense
regulatory text (40 CFR 63.1344) as part
of the final technical corrections rule.
The EPA also adopted standards of
performance for new Portland cement
sources as part of the same regulatory
action establishing the 2010 NESHAP.
75 FR 54970(Sept. 9, 2010); see also
Portland Cement Ass’n v. EPA, 665 F.
3d at 190–92 (upholding these
standards). The EPA is proposing
certain technical changes to these
VerDate Sep<11>2014
14:17 Nov 18, 2014
Jkt 235001
standards as part of today’s action.
These changes do not affect the
standards nor do they affect the
expected cost of compliance.
III. Discussion of the Issues Under
Consideration
The EPA is proposing certain
clarifying changes and corrections to the
2013 final rule. Specifically, these
amendments would: (1) Clarify the
definition of rolling average, operating
day and run average; (2) restore the table
of emission limits which apply until the
September 9, 2015, compliance date; (3)
correct equation 8 regarding sources
with an alkali bypass or inline coal mill
that include a separate stack; (4) provide
a scaling alternative for sources that
have a wet scrubber, tray tower or dry
scrubber relative to the HCl compliance
demonstration; (5) add a temperature
parameter to the startup and shutdown
requirements; (6) clarify language
related to span values for both Hg and
HCl measurements; and (7) correct
inadvertent typographical errors. The
EPA also proposes to clarify and correct
certain inadvertent inconsistencies in
the final rule regulatory text, such as
correction of the compliance date for
new sources and correction to the
compliance date regarding monitoring
and recordkeeping requirements to
reflect the effective date of the final rule
for the NSPS.
In both the NSPS and the NESHAP,
we are proposing language to clarify the
existing definitions of Operating Day,
Rolling Average and Run Average to
promote consistent and clear monitoring
data recording and emissions reporting.
The clarifications below are in response
to industry questions and neither is
intended to change the meaning of the
final rule. We propose to clarify that
‘‘Operating Day’’ is any 24-hour period
where clinker is produced. This
clarification is necessary to specify that
during any day with both operations
and emissions, an emissions value or an
average of emissions values representing
those operations is included in the 30day rolling average calculation. We also
propose to clarify that ‘‘Rolling
Average’’ means a weighted average of
all monitoring data collected during a
specified time period divided by all
production of clinker during those same
hours of operation. This clarification is
necessary to specify the way a long term
rolling average value is calculated such
that different facilities are not using
different approaches to demonstrate
compliance with the rule. In addition,
we propose to revise the definition of
‘‘Run Average’’ to clarify that the run
average means the average of the
PO 00000
Frm 00017
Fmt 4702
Sfmt 4702
68823
recorded parameter values, not the 1minute parameter values, for a run.
We are proposing to amend 40 CFR
63.1349(b)(8)(vii) that includes a
provision describing performance
testing requirements when a source
demonstrates compliance with the
emissions standard using a continuous
emissions monitoring system (CEMS)
for sulfur dioxide (SO2) measurement
and reporting.
We are proposing to add a scaling
alternative whereby if a source uses a
wet scrubber, tray tower or dry scrubber,
and where the test run average of the
three HCl compliance tests
demonstrates compliance below 2.25
parts per million by volume (ppmv)
(which is 75 percent of the HCl
emission limit), the source may
calculate an operating limit by
establishing a relationship of the
average SO2 CEMS signal to the HCl
concentration (corrected to 7 percent
oxygen). The operating limit would be
established at a point where the SO2
CEMS indicates the source would be at
2.25 ppmv. Since the 2.25 ppmv is
below the actual limit of 3.0 ppmv, the
source will continue to demonstrate
compliance with the HCl standard.
Given the fact that SO2 controls
preferentially remove HCl, an increase
in SO2 emissions would not indicate an
increase in HCl emissions as long as
some SO2 emissions reductions are
occurring. Adding this compliance
flexibility should not result in any
increase in HCl emissions. We solicit
comment on this approach.
We also propose, under 40 CFR
63.1346(g)(3), to revise language related
to the use of air pollution control
devices (APCD). During startup, fuel
feed is increased over time until normal
operating temperatures are achieved.
According to industry, during both
startup and shutdown, the gas stream to
the APCD will be above 12-percent
oxygen because the system is being
operated at reduced fuel combustion
rates. The minimal temperature at
which oxygen content is below 12
percent and thereby assuring the stream
is nonexplosive, is 300 degrees
Fahrenheit. There are also issues with
activated carbon and hydrated lime
being injected into large ducts with low
gas flows. With low gas flows, these
materials fall out of the stream and
accumulate in the duct work. In
addition, lime affected by water vapor
condensation present during startup and
shutdown conditions will cause the
lime to harden and reduce the efficiency
E:\FR\FM\19NOP1.SGM
19NOP1
68824
Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 223 / Wednesday, November 19, 2014 / Proposed Rules
for dust removal.1 Therefore, we
propose to require the APCD be turned
on when the temperature of the APCD
reaches 300 degrees Fahrenheit. We also
propose to clarify that this section is
applicable to HAP control devices, a
requirement inadvertently missing from
the promulgated rule.
We propose to modify the
measurement span criteria for HCl
CEMS to include better quality
assurance/quality control (QA/QC) for
measurements of elevated HCl
emissions that may result from ‘‘mill
off’’ operations. This slight increase in
measurement span (from 5 parts per
million (ppm) to 10 ppm) provides for
an improved balance between
accurately quantifying measurements at
low emissions levels (the majority of
operating time) and improving QA/QC
for brief periods of elevated emissions
observed during ‘‘mill off’’ operation
(the majority of HCl mass emissions).
We propose to remove 40 CFR
60.64(c)(2), which applied when sources
did not have valid 15-minute CEMS
data. This provision allowed for
inclusion of the average emission rate
from the previous hour for which data
were available. This provision was
inadvertently added to the final rule,
but this substitution is not an allowable
action. We solicit comment on removal
of this subsection.
We are also proposing to revise 40
CFR 63.1350(o) (Alternative Monitoring
Requirements Approval), since language
in this section, which does not allow an
operator to apply for alternative THC
monitoring, is now obsolete. Since there
is now alternative monitoring allowed
in 40 CFR 63.1350(j) due to the 2013
amendments (see 78 FR 10015), the
exception is largely no longer needed. A
source that emits a high amount of THC
due to methane emissions, for example,
can follow the alternative oHAP
monitoring requirements. For any other
reason that an alternative THC
monitoring protocol is warranted, we
are proposing the source be allowed to
submit an application to the
Administrator subject to the provisions
of 40 CFR 63.1350(o)(1) through (6).
IV. Plan To Remove Affirmative
Defense
As noted above, the United States
Court of Appeals for the District of
Columbia Circuit vacated the affirmative
defense provisions contained in the
Portland Cement NESHAP rule. (NRDC
v. EPA, 749 F. 3d at 1063–64 (D.C. Cir.
2014). The court found that the EPA
lacked authority to establish an
affirmative defense for private civil suits
and held that under the CAA, the
authority to determine civil penalty
amounts in such cases lies exclusively
with the courts, not the EPA.
Specifically, the court found: ‘‘As the
language of the statute makes clear, the
courts determine, on a case-by-case
basis, whether civil penalties are
‘appropriate.’’’ Id. at 1063. In light of
this decision, the affirmative defense
provisions are null and void. The EPA
plans to remove the regulatory
affirmative defense provisions as part of
the final technical corrections rule to
reflect the court’s vacatur. In the event
that a source fails to comply with the
applicable CAA section 112 standards
as a result of a malfunction event, the
EPA would determine an appropriate
response based on, among other things,
the good faith efforts of the source to
minimize emissions during malfunction
periods, including preventative and
corrective actions, as well as root cause
analyses, to ascertain and rectify excess
emissions. The EPA would also
consider whether the source’s failure to
comply with the CAA section 112
standard was, in fact, ‘‘sudden,
infrequent, not reasonably preventable’’
and was not instead ‘‘caused in part by
poor maintenance or careless
operation.’’ 40 CFR 63.2 (definition of
malfunction).
Further, to the extent the EPA files an
enforcement action against a source for
violation of an emission standard, the
source can raise any and all defenses in
that enforcement action and the federal
district court will determine what, if
any, relief is appropriate. The same is
true for citizen enforcement actions.
Similarly, the presiding officer in an
administrative proceeding can consider
any defense raised and determine
whether administrative penalties are
appropriate.
V. Solicitation of Public Comment on
Proposed Amendments
At this time, the EPA is only
proposing specific technical corrections
and clarifications to the final rule’s
requirements, and is seeking comment
on these corrections and clarifications.
The EPA is not proposing any other
revisions to the final rule. The EPA is
seeking comment only on the specific
proposed technical corrections
proposed in this document. The EPA
will not respond to any comments
addressing any other issues or any other
provisions of the final rule or any other
rule. The EPA is not seeking comment
on its plan to remove the affirmative
defense regulatory text. The removal of
the affirmative defense merely corrects
the regulation to reflect that the
provisions have no legal effect in light
of the court’s vacatur and, thus, notice
and comment is not required (See 5
U.S.C 553(b)(B)).
VI. Technical Corrections and
Clarifications
These technical corrections and
clarifications are being proposed to
correct inaccuracies and oversights that
were promulgated in the final rule and
to make the rule language consistent
with provisions addressed through this
reconsideration. We are soliciting
comment only on whether the proposed
changes provide the intended accuracy,
clarity and consistency. These proposed
changes are described in Tables 2 and
3 of this preamble. We request comment
on all of these proposed changes.

denominator.
Revise this paragraph to correct a typographical error by changing reference to paragraph (a)(4) to
paragraph (b)(4).
Revise these two paragraphs to clarify calculations are from the output recorded during the 3 hour
test, which also must be from both the three raw mill on and three raw mill off test runs.
Add this paragraph to clarify that if you have an inline coal mill, you must measure at the coal mill
inlet and calculate a weighted average for all emission sources including the coal mill and the alkali bypass. Note adding this paragraph changes the subsequent numbering of paragraphs in this
section.
Revise this paragraph to add the word ‘‘that’’ for clarity regarding the demonstration that average organic HAP emission levels are at or above 75 percent of your emission limit.
Revise this paragraph to remove a comma after the word ‘‘value.’’
Remove the term ‘‘highest load or capacity’’ since the load level is already defined under the performance testing requirements, general provisions, 40 CFR 60.8(c).
Clarify the compliance test is based on a 30 month test instead of an annual test.
Revise this paragraph to clarify that you must establish an SO2 operating limit equal to the average
recorded output during the HCl stack test.
Revise this paragraph to clarify that the average SO2 concentration must be calculated from the recorded output instead of the 1-minute averages.
Revise this paragraph to correct a typographical error by replacing ‘‘THC’’ with ‘‘HCl’’ when calculating the limit as the weighted average of HCl levels measured.
Revise this paragraph to include a proposed scaling alternative if the average of the three HCl compliance tests determines that the HCl emissions are below 75 percent of the HCl emissions limit.
Revise this paragraph to replace ‘‘annual’’ with ‘‘periodic’’ which is more relevant to the timing of the
performance test.
Remove this provision since it no longer applies. See 78 FR 10015.

span value.
Revise this paragraph to add the alkali bypass as being subject to this requirement.
Revise paragraphs in this section to clarify the measurement span value range is 0 to 10 ppmvw,
and to add one more option in paragraphs (l)(1)(ii)(A through C) to quality assure data measured
above the span value.
Amend this paragraph to clarify that this section is applicable when use of a CEMS is required.
Amend this paragraph to remove reference to the location for installing each sensor of the flow rate
monitoring system relative to the sampling location of the PM CEMS, since the sensor of each
flow rate monitoring system is not applicable for PM in this section.
Remove the phrase, ‘‘except for emission standards for THC’’ from the section.

VII. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
A. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory
Planning and Review and Executive
Order 13563: Improving Regulation and
Regulatory Review
This action is not a ‘‘significant
regulatory action’’ under the terms of
Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735,
October 4, 1993) and is therefore not
subject to review under Executive
Orders 12866 and 13563 (76 FR 3821,
January 21, 2011).
B. Paperwork Reduction Act
This action does not impose any new
information collection burden. The EPA
is not proposing any new information
collection activities (e.g., monitoring,
reporting, recordkeeping) as part of this
action. The Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) has previously approved
the information collection requirements
contained in the existing regulations
under the provisions of the Paperwork
Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.
and has assigned OMB control number
2060–0416. The OMB control numbers
for the EPA’s regulations in 40 CFR are
listed in 40 CFR part 9.

C. Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Regulatory Flexibility Act
generally requires an agency to prepare
a regulatory flexibility analysis of any
rule subject to notice and comment
rulemaking requirements under the
Administrative Procedure Act or any
other statute unless the agency certifies
that the rule will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities. Small entities
include small businesses, small
organizations and small governmental
jurisdictions.
For purposes of assessing the impacts
of this action on small entities, small
entity is defined as: (1) A small business
as defined by the Small Business
Administration’s regulations at 13 CFR
121.201; (2) a small governmental
jurisdiction that is a government of a
city, county, town, school district or
special district with a population of less
than 50,000; and (3) a small
organization that is any not-for-profit
enterprise which is independently
owned and operated and is not
dominant in its field.
VerDate Sep<11>2014
14:17 Nov 18, 2014
Jkt 235001
After considering the economic
impacts of this proposed rule on small
entities, I certify that this action will not
have a significant economic impact on
a substantial number of small entities.
This proposed rule will not impose any
new requirements on small entities. We
continue to be interested in the
potential impacts of the proposed rule
on small entities and welcome
comments on issues related to such
impacts.
D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
This action does not contain a federal
mandate that may result in expenditures
of $100 million or more for state, local
and tribal governments, in the aggregate,
or the private sector in any one year.
This action proposes minor changes to
the rule to correct and clarify technical
issues raised by stakeholders and, thus,
does not exceed estimated costs
developed for the final rule (refer to
final Technical Support Document
EPA–HQ–OAR–2011–0817–0845).
Thus, this rule is not subject to the
requirements of section 202 and 205 of
the UMRA. This rule is also not subject
to the requirements of section 203 of
UMRA because it contains no regulatory
requirements that might significantly or
uniquely affect small governments. This
action contains no requirements that
apply to such governments, imposes no
obligations upon them and will not
result in expenditures by them of $100
million or more in any one year or incur
any disproportionate impacts on them.
E. Executive Order 13132: Federalism
This action does not have federalism
implications. It will not have substantial
direct effects on the states, on the
relationship between the national
government and the states, or on the
distribution of power and
responsibilities among the various
levels of government, as specified in
Executive Order 13132. This action
seeks comment on proposed technical
corrections to the NESHAP for Portland
Cement Manufacturing sources located
at major sources of HAP without
proposing any changes to the rule. Thus,
Executive Order 13132 does not apply
to this action.
In the spirit of Executive Order 13132,
and consistent with EPA policy to
promote communications between the
EPA and state and local governments,
PO 00000
Frm 00021
Fmt 4702
Sfmt 4702
the EPA specifically solicits comment
on this proposed action from state and
local officials.
F. Executive Order 13175: Consultation
and Coordination With Indian Tribal
Governments
This action does not have tribal
implications, as specified in Executive
Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9,
2000). This action will not have
substantial direct effects on tribal
governments, on the relationship
between the federal government and
Indian tribes or on the distribution of
power and responsibilities between the
federal government and Indian tribes, as
specified in Executive Order 13175.
Thus, Executive Order 13175 does not
apply to this action.
The EPA specifically solicits
additional comment on this proposed
action from tribal officials.
G. Executive Order 13045: Protection of
Children From Environmental Health
Risks and Safety Risks
The EPA interprets Executive Order
13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997) as
applying to those regulatory actions that
concern health or safety risks, such that
the analysis required under section 5–
501 of the Executive Order has the
potential to influence the regulation.
This action is not subject to Executive
Order 13045 because it is based solely
on technology performance.
H. Executive Order 13211: Actions
Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply,
Distribution, or Use
This action is not subject to Executive
Order 13211 (66 FR 28355 (May 22,
2001) because it is not a significant
regulatory action under Executive Order
12866.
I. National Technology Transfer and
Advancement Act
Section 12(d) of the National
Technology Transfer and Advancement
Act (NTTAA) of 1995, Public Law 104–
113, 12(d), (15 U.S.C. 272 note) directs
the EPA to use voluntary consensus
standards (VCS) in its regulatory
activities, unless to do so would be
inconsistent with applicable law or
otherwise impractical. The VCS are
technical standards (e.g., materials
specifications, test methods, sampling
E:\FR\FM\19NOP1.SGM
19NOP1
68828
Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 223 / Wednesday, November 19, 2014 / Proposed Rules
procedures and business practices) that
are developed or adopted by VCS
bodies. The NTTAA directs the EPA to
provide Congress, through OMB,
explanations when the agency does not
use available and applicable VCS.
This proposed rule does not involve
technical standards. Therefore, the EPA
is not considering the use of any VCS.
J. Executive Order 12898: Federal
Actions To Address Environmental
Justice in Minority Populations and
Low-Income Populations
rljohnson on DSK3VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629,
Feb. 16, 1994) establishes federal
executive policy on environmental
justice. Its main provision directs
federal agencies, to the greatest extent
practicable and permitted by law, to
make environmental justice part of their
mission by identifying and addressing,
as appropriate, disproportionately high
and adverse human health or
environmental effects of their programs,
policies and activities on minority
populations and low-income
populations in the United States.
An analysis of demographic data was
prepared for the 2010 final rule and can
be found in the docket for that
rulemaking (See docket item EPA–HQ–
OAR–2011–0817). The impacts of the
2010 rule, which assumed full
compliance, are expected to be
unchanged as a result of this action.
Therefore, beginning from the date of
full compliance, the EPA has
determined that the proposed rule will
not have disproportionately high and
adverse human health or environmental
effects on minority or low-income
populations because it increases the
level of environmental protection for all
affected populations without having any
disproportionately high and adverse
human health or environmental effects
on any population, including any
minority or low-income populations. In
addition, the full benefits of this final
rule will not result until 2015 due to the
final amended compliance date but the
demographic analysis showed that the
average of populations in close
proximity to the sources, and thus most
likely to be affected by the sources, were
similar in demographic composition to
national averages.

§ 63.1343 What standards apply to my
kilns, clinker coolers, raw material dryers,
and open clinker storage piles?
(a) General. The provisions in this
section apply to each kiln and any alkali
bypass associated with that kiln, clinker
cooler, raw material dryer, and open
clinker storage pile. All D/F, HCl, and
total hydrocarbon (THC) emissions limit
are on a dry basis. The D/F, HCl, and
THC limits for kilns are corrected to 7
percent oxygen. All THC emissions
limits are measured as propane.
Standards for mercury and THC are
based on a rolling 30-day average. If
using a CEMS to determine compliance
with the HCl standard, this standard is
based on a rolling 30-day average. You
must ensure appropriate corrections for
moisture are made when measuring
flow rates used to calculate mercury
emissions. The 30-day period means all
operating hours within 30 consecutive
kiln operating days excluding periods of
startup and shutdown. All emissions
limits for kilns, clinker coolers, and raw
material dryers currently in effect that
are superseded by the limits below
continue to apply until the compliance
date of the limits below, or until the
source certifies compliance with the
limits below, whichever is earlier.

collected in the impingers (‘‘back half’’)
of the Method 5 or Method 5I
particulate sampling train to
demonstrate compliance with the PM
standards of this subpart. This shall not
preclude the permitting authority from
requiring a determination of the ‘‘back
half’’ for other purposes.
(vii) For PM performance test reports
used to set a PM CPMS operating limit,
the electronic submission of the test
report must also include the make and
model of the PM CPMS instrument,
serial number of the instrument,

instruments primary analytical range,
milliamp value equivalent to the
instrument zero output, technique by
which this zero value was determined,
and the average milliamp signals
corresponding to each PM compliance
test run.
(viii) When there is an alkali bypass
and/or an inline coal mill with a
separate stack associated with a kiln, the
main exhaust and alkali bypass and/or
inline coal mill must be tested
simultaneously and the combined
emission rate of PM from the kiln and
alkali bypass and/or inline coal mill
must be computed for each run using
Equation 8 of this section.

(iii) Average temperatures must be
calculated for each run of the
performance test.
(iv) The run average temperature must
be calculated for each run, and the
average of the run average temperatures
must be determined and included in the
performance test report and will

limit in accordance with § 63.1344(b).
(v)(A) If sorbent injection is used for
D/F control, you must record the rate of
sorbent injection to the kiln exhaust,
and where applicable, the rate of
sorbent injection to the alkali bypass
exhaust, continuously during the period
of the Method 23 test in accordance
with the conditions in § 63.1350(m)(9),

following the procedures in paragraphs
(b)(7) of this section.
(5) Mercury Emissions Tests. If you
are subject to limitations on mercury
emissions, you must operate a mercury
CEMS or a sorbent trap monitoring
system in accordance with the
requirements of § 63.1350(k). The initial
compliance test must be based on the
first 30 kiln operating days in which the
affected source operates using a mercury
CEMS or a sorbent trap monitoring
system after the compliance date of the
rule. See § 63.1348(a).
(i) If you are using a mercury CEMS
or a sorbent trap monitoring system, you
must install, operate, calibrate, and
maintain an instrument for
continuously measuring and recording
the exhaust gas flow rate to the
atmosphere according to the
requirements in § 63.1350(k)(5).

(6) HCl emissions tests. For a source
subject to limitations on HCl emissions
you must conduct performance testing
by one of the following methods:
(i)(A) If the source is equipped with
a wet scrubber, tray tower or dry
scrubber, you must conduct
performance testing using Method 321
of appendix A to this part unless you
have installed a CEMS that meets the
requirements § 63.1350(l)(1). For kilns
with inline raw mills, testing should be
conducted for the raw mill on and raw
mill off conditions.
(B) You must establish site specific
parameter limits by using the CPMS
required in § 63.1350(l)(1). For a wet
scrubber or tray tower, measure and
record the pressure drop across the
scrubber and/or liquid flow rate and pH
in intervals of no more than 15 minutes
during the HCl test. Compute and record
performance test specified in paragraph
(b)(4) of this section, you may conduct
a performance test to determine
emissions of total organic HAP by
following the procedures in paragraphs

must calculate a kiln-specific THC limit
using Equation 9:
the 24-hour average pressure drop, pH,
and average scrubber water flow rate for
each sampling run in which the
applicable emissions limit is met. For a
dry scrubber, measure and record the
sorbent injection rate in intervals of no
more than 15 minutes during the HCl
test. Compute and record the 24-hour
average sorbent injection rate and
average sorbent injection rate for each
sampling run in which the applicable
emissions limit is met.
(ii)(A) If the source is not controlled
by a wet scrubber, tray tower or dry
sorbent injection system, you must
operate a CEMS in accordance with the
requirements of § 63.1350(l)(1). See
§ 63.1348(a).
(B) The initial compliance test must
be based on the 30 kiln operating days
that occur after the compliance date of
this rule in which the affected source
operates using a HCl CEMS. Hourly HCl
concentration data must be obtained
according to § 63.1350(l).
(iii) As an alternative to paragraph
(b)(6)(i)(B) of this section, you may
choose to monitor SO2 emissions using
a CEMS in accordance with the
requirements of § 63.1350(l)(3). You
must establish an SO2 operating limit
equal to the average recorded during the
HCl stack test where the HCl stack test
run result demonstrates compliance
with the emission limit. This operating
limit will apply only for demonstrating
HCl compliance.
(iv) If kiln gases are diverted through
an alkali bypass or to a coal mill and
exhausted through a separate stack, you
must calculate a kiln-specific HCl limit
using Equation 11:
combination to determine emissions of
total organic HAP. Each performance
test must consist of three separate runs
under the conditions that exist when the
affected source is operating at the
representative performance conditions

(x) If your kiln has an inline kiln/raw
mill, you must conduct separate
performance tests while the raw mill is
operating (‘‘mill on’’) and while the raw
mill is not operating (‘‘mill off’’). Using
the fraction of time the raw mill is on
and the fraction of time that the raw
mill is off, calculate this limit as a
weighted average of the THC levels
measured during raw mill on and raw
mill off compliance testing with
Equation 15.
Where:
R = Operating limit as THC, ppmvw.
y = Average THC CEMS value during mill on
operations, ppmvw.
t = Percentage of operating time with mill on.
x = Average THC CEMS value during mill off
operations, ppmvw.
(1-t) = Percentage of operating time with mill
off.
(xi) To determine continuous
compliance with the THC operating
limit, you must record the THC CEMS
output data for all periods when the
process is operating and the THC CEMS
is not out-of-control. You must
demonstrate continuous compliance by
using all quality-assured hourly average
data collected by the THC CEMS for all
operating hours to calculate the
arithmetic average operating parameter
in units of the operating limit (ppmvw)
on a 30 operating day rolling average
basis, updated at the end of each new
kiln operating day. Use Equation 16 to
determine the 30 kiln operating day
average.

performance test demonstrates your
average organic HAP emission levels are
below 75 percent of your emission limit
(9 ppmv) you will use the average THC
value recorded during the organic HAP
performance test, and the average total
organic HAP result of your performance
test to establish your operating limit. If

emission limit, you must determine
your operating limit using Equation 14
by averaging the THC CEMS output
values corresponding to your three
organic HAP performance test runs that
demonstrate compliance with the
emission limit. If your new THC CEMS
value is below your current operating
limit, you may opt to retain your current
operating limit, but you must still

CEMS data according to the reporting
requirements in paragraph (d)(1) of this

results demonstrate that your average
organic HAP emission levels are at or
above 75 percent of your emission limit,
your operating limit is established as the
average THC value recorded during the
organic HAP performance test. You
must establish a new operating limit
after each performance test. You must
repeat the performance test no later than
30 months following your last
performance test and reassess and adjust
the site-specific operating limit in
accordance with the results of the
performance test.
(viii) If the average organic HAP
results for your three Method 18 and/or
Method 320 performance test runs are
below 75 percent of your organic HAP
emission limit, you must calculate an
operating limit by establishing a
relationship of THC CEMS signal to the
organic HAP concentration using the
average THC CEMS value corresponding
to the three organic HAP compliance
test runs and the average organic HAP
total concentration from the Method 18
and/or Method 320 performance test
runs with the procedures in
(a)(7)(vii)(A) and (B) of this section.

values in ppmvw, and the average of
your corresponding three total organic
HAP compliance test runs, using
Equation 12.
EP19NO14.031 EP19NO14.032
(ii) At the same time that you are
conducting the performance test for
total organic HAP, you must also
determine a site-specific THC emissions
limit by operating a THC CEMS in
accordance with the requirements of
§ 63.1350(j). The duration of the
performance test must be at least 3
hours and the average THC
concentration (as calculated from the
recorded output) during the 3-hour test
must be calculated. You must establish
your THC operating limit and determine
compliance with it according to
paragraphs (a)(7)(vii) through (viii) of
this section. It is permissible to extend
the testing time of the organic HAP
performance test if you believe extended
testing is required to adequately capture
organic HAP and/or THC variability
over time.
(iii) If your source has an in-line kiln/
raw mill you must use the fraction of
time the raw mill is on and the fraction
of time that the raw mill is off and
calculate this limit as a weighted
average of the THC levels measured
during three raw mill on and three raw
mill off tests.
(iv) If your organic HAP emissions are
below 75 percent of the organic HAP
standard and you determine your
operating limit with paragraph
(b)(7)(vii) of this section your THC
CEMS must be calibrated and operated
on a measurement scale no greater than
180 ppmvw, as carbon, or 60 ppmvw as
propane.
(v) If your kiln has an inline coal mill,
and you are required to measure at the
coal mill inlet, you must also measure
oHAP at the coal mil inlet and calculate
a weighted average for all emission
sources including the inline coal mill
and the alkali bypass.
(vi) Your THC CEMS measurement
scale must be capable of reading THC
concentrations from zero to a level
equivalent to two times your highest
THC emissions average determined
during your performance test, including
mill on or mill off operation.

(xii) Use EPA Method 18 or Method
320 of appendix A to part 60 of this
chapter to determine organic HAP
emissions. For each performance test,
conduct at least three separate runs
under the conditions that exist when the
affected source is operating at the level
reasonably expected to occur. If your
source has an in-line kiln/raw mill you
must conduct three separate test runs
with the raw mill on, and three separate
runs under the conditions that exist
when the affected source is operating at
the level reasonably expected to occur
with the mill off. Conduct each Method
18 test run to collect a minimum target
sample equivalent to three times the
method detection limit. Calculate the
average of the results from three runs to
determine compliance.

your site-specific THC emissions limit.
(8) HCl Emissions Tests with SO2
Monitoring. If you choose to monitor
SO2 emissions using a CEMS to
demonstrate HCl compliance, follow the
procedures in (b)(8)(i) through (ix) of
this section and in accordance with the
requirements of § 63.1350(l)(3). You
must establish an SO2 operating limit
equal to the average recorded during the
HCl stack test. This operating limit will
apply only for demonstrating HCl
compliance.
(i) Use Method 321 of appendix A to
this part to determine emissions of HCl.
Each performance test must consist of
three separate runs under the conditions
that exist when the affected source is
operating at the representative
performance conditions in accordance
with § 63.7(e). Each run must be
conducted for at least one hour.
(ii) At the same time that you are
conducting the performance test for
HCl, you must also determine a sitespecific SO2 emissions limit by
operating an SO2 CEMS in accordance
with the requirements of § 63.1350(l).
The duration of the performance test
must be three hours and the average SO2
concentration (as calculated from the
average output) during the 3-hour test
must be calculated. You must establish
your SO2 operating limit and determine
compliance with it according to
paragraphs (b)(8)(vii) and (viii)of this
section.
(iii) If your source has an in-line kiln/
raw mill you must use the fraction of
time the raw mill is on and the fraction
of time that the raw mill is off and
calculate this limit as a weighted
average of the SO2 levels measured
during raw mill on and raw mill off
testing.
(iv) Your SO2 CEMS must be
calibrated and operated according to the
requirements of § 60.63(f).
(v) Your SO2 CEMS measurement
scale must be capable of reading SO2
concentrations consistent with the
requirements of § 60.63(f), including
mill on or mill off operation.
(vi) If your kiln has an inline kiln/raw
mill, you must conduct separate
performance tests while the raw mill is
operating (‘‘mill on’’) and while the raw
mill is not operating (‘‘mill off’’). Using
the fraction of time the raw mill is on
and the fraction of time that the raw
mill is off, calculate this limit as a
weighted average of the HCl levels
measured during raw mill on and raw
mill off compliance testing with
Equation 17.

instrument zero output with one of the
following procedures.
(1) Zero point data for in-situ
instruments should be obtained by
removing the instrument from the stack
and monitoring ambient air on a test
bench.
(2) Zero point data for extractive
instruments may be obtained by
removing the extractive probe from the
stack and drawing in clean ambient air.
(3) The zero point may also be
established by performing probe-flood
introduction of high purity nitrogen or
certified zero air free of SO2.
(4) If none of the steps in paragraphs

(k)(1) of this section using the following
procedure. Any time two consecutive
one-hour average measured
concentration of Hg exceeds the span
value you must, within 24 hours before
or after, introduce a higher, ‘‘above
span’’ Hg reference gas standard to the
Hg CEMS. The ‘‘above span’’ reference
gas must meet the requirements of PS
12A, Section 7.1, must target a
concentration level between 50 and 150
percent of the highest expected hourly
concentration measured during the
period of measurements above span,
and must be introduced at the probe.
Record and report the results of this
procedure as you would for a daily
calibration. The ‘‘above span’’
calibration is successful if the value
measured by the Hg CEMS is within 20
percent of the certified value of the
reference gas. If the value measured by
the Hg CEMS exceeds 20 percent of the
certified value of the reference gas, then
you must normalize the one-hour
average stack gas values measured above
the span during the 24-hour period
preceding or following the ‘‘above span’’
calibration for reporting based on the Hg
CEMS response to the reference gas as
shown in equation 22:
Only one ‘above span’ calibration is
needed per 24 hour period.
(iv) If mercury emissions from the
coal mill and alkali bypass are below
the method detection limit for two
consecutive annual performance tests,
you may reduce the frequency of the
performance tests of coal mills and
alkali bypasses to once every 30 months.
If the measured mercury concentration
exceeds the method detection limit, you
must revert to testing annually until two
consecutive annual tests are below the
method detection limit.

(l) HCl Monitoring Requirements. If
you are subject to an emissions
limitation on HCl emissions in
§ 63.1343, you must monitor HCl
emissions continuously according to
paragraph (l)(1) or (2) and paragraphs
(m)(1) through (4) of this section or, if
your kiln is controlled using a wet or
dry scrubber or tray tower, you
alternatively may parametrically
monitor SO2 emissions continuously
according to paragraph (l)(3) of this
section. You must also develop an
emissions monitoring plan in
accordance with paragraphs (p)(1)
through (4) of this section.
(1) If you monitor compliance with
the HCl emissions limit by operating an
HCl CEMS, you must do so in
accordance with Performance
Specification 15 (PS 15) of appendix B
to part 60 of this chapter, or, upon
promulgation, in accordance with any
other performance specification for HCl
CEMS in appendix B to part 60 of this
chapter. You must operate, maintain,
and quality assure a HCl CEMS installed
and certified under PS 15 according to
the quality assurance requirements in
Procedure 1 of appendix F to part 60 of
this chapter except that the Relative
Accuracy Test Audit requirements of
Procedure 1 must be replaced with the
validation requirements and criteria of
sections 11.1.1 and 12.0 of PS 15. If you
install and operate an HCl CEMS in
accordance with any other performance
specification for HCl CEMS in appendix
B to part 60 of this chapter, you must
operate, maintain and quality assure the
HCl CEMS using the procedure of
appendix F to part 60 of this chapter
applicable to the performance
specification. You must use Method 321
of appendix A to part 63 of this chapter
as the reference test method for
conducting relative accuracy testing.
The span value and calibration
requirements in paragraphs (l)(1)(i) and
(ii) of this section apply to HCl CEMS
other than those installed and certified
under PS 15.
(i) You must use a measurement span
value for any HCl CEMS of 0–10
ppmvw. The HCl CEMS data recorder
output range must include the full range
of expected HCl concentration values
which would include those expected
during ‘‘mill off’’ conditions. The
corresponding data recorder range shall
be documented in the site-specific
monitoring plan and associated records.
(ii) In order to quality assure data
measured above the span value, you
must use one of the three options in
paragraphs (l)(1)(ii)(A) through (C) of
this section.
(A) Include a second span that
encompasses the HCl emission
concentrations expected to be
encountered during ‘‘mill off’’
conditions. This second span may be
rounded to a multiple of 5 mg/m3 of total
HCl. The requirements of the
appropriate HCl monitor performance
specification shall be followed for this
second span with the exception that a
RATA with the mill off is not required.
(B) Quality assure any data above the
span value by proving instrument
linearity beyond the span value
established in paragraph (I)(1)(i) of this
section using the following procedure.
Conduct a weekly ‘‘above span
linearity’’ calibration challenge of the
monitoring system using a reference gas
with a certified value greater than your
highest expected hourly concentration.
The ‘‘above span’’ reference gas must
meet the requirements of the applicable
performance specification and must be
introduced to the measurement system
at the probe. Record and report the
results of this procedure as you would
for a daily calibration. The ‘‘above span
linearity’’ challenge is successful if the
value measured by the HCl CEMS falls
within 10 percent of the certified value
of the reference gas. If the value
measured by the HCl CEMS during the
above span linearity challenge exceeds
10 percent of the certified value of the
reference gas, the monitoring system
must be evaluated and repaired and a
new ‘‘above span linearity’’ challenge
met before returning the HCl CEMS to
service, or data above span from the HCl
CEMS must be quality assured using the
procedure established in (I)(1)(C).
(C) Quality assure any data above the
span value established in paragraph
(1)(1)(i) of this section using the
following procedure. Any time the
average measured concentration of HCl

calibration. The ‘‘above span linearity’’
challenge is successful if the value
measured by the Hg CEMS falls within
10 percent of the certified value of the
reference gas. If the value measured by
the Hg CEMS during the above span
linearity challenge exceeds 10 percent
of the certified value of the reference
gas, the monitoring system must be
evaluated and repaired and a new
‘‘above span linearity’’ challenge met
before returning the Hg CEMS to
service, or data above span from the Hg
CEMS must be quality assured using the
procedure established in (k)(2)(iii).

calibration. The ‘above span’ calibration
is successful if the value measured by
the HCl CEMS is within 20 percent of
the certified value of the reference gas.
If the value measured by the HCl CEMS
is not within 20 percent of the certified
value of the reference gas, then you
must normalize the stack gas values
measured above span as described in
paragraph (l)(1)(ii)(D) below. If the
‘above span’ calibration is conducted
during the period when measured
emissions are above span and there is a
failure to collect the required minimum
number of data points in an hour due to
the calibration duration, then you must
determine the emissions average for that
missed hour as the average of hourly
averages for the hour preceding the
missed hour and the hour following the
missed hour.
(D) In the event that the ‘above span’
calibration is not successful (i.e., the
HCl CEMS measured value is not within
20 percent of the certified value of the
reference gas), then you must normalize
the one-hour average stack gas values
measured above the span during the 24hour period preceding or following the
‘above span’ calibration for reporting
based on the HCl CEMS response to the
reference gas as shown in Equation 23:
Only one ‘above span’ calibration is
needed per 24-hour period.
(2) Install, operate, and maintain a
CMS to monitor wet scrubber or tray
tower parameters, as specified in
paragraphs (m)(5) and (7) of this section,
and dry scrubber, as specified in
paragraph (m)(9) of this section.
(3) If the source is equipped with a
wet or dry scrubber or tray tower, and
you choose to monitor SO2 emissions,
monitor SO2 emissions continuously
according to the requirements of
§ 60.63(e) through (f) of part 60 subpart
F of this chapter. If SO2 levels increase
above the 30-day rolling average SO2
operating limit established during your
performance test, you must:
(i) As soon as possible but no later
than 48 hours after you exceed the
established SO2 value conduct an
inspection and take corrective action to
return the SO2 emissions to within the
operating limit; and
(ii) Within 60 days of the exceedance
or at the time of the next compliance
test, whichever comes first, conduct an
HCl emissions compliance test to
determine compliance with the HCl
emissions limit and to verify or reestablish the SO2 CEMS operating limit.
*
*
*
*
*
(n) Continuous Flow Rate Monitoring
System. You must install, operate,
calibrate, and maintain instruments,
according to the requirements in
paragraphs (n)(1) through (10) of this
section, for continuously measuring and
recording the stack gas flow rate to
allow determination of the pollutant
mass emissions rate to the atmosphere
from sources subject to an emissions
limitation that has a pounds per ton of
clinker unit and that is required to be
monitored by a CEMS.
(1) You must install each sensor of the
flow rate monitoring system in a
location that provides representative
measurement of the exhaust gas flow
rate at the sampling location of the
mercury CEMS, taking into account the
manufacturer’s recommendations. The
flow rate sensor is that portion of the
system that senses the volumetric flow
rate and generates an output
proportional to that flow rate.

(o) Alternate monitoring requirements
approval. You may submit an
application to the Administrator for
approval of alternate monitoring
requirements to demonstrate
compliance with the emission standards
of this subpart subject to the provisions
of paragraphs (o)(1) through (6) of this
section.
*
*
*
*
*
(3) You must submit the application
for approval of alternate monitoring
requirements no later than the
notification of performance test. The
application must contain the
information specified in paragraphs
(o)(3)(i) through (iii) of this section:

rule that amends the reporting
requirements of the MATS rule by
temporarily requiring affected sources to
submit all required emissions and
compliance reports to the EPA through
the Emissions Collection and
Monitoring Plan System Client Tool and
temporarily suspending the requirement
for affected sources to submit certain
reports using the Electronic Reporting
Tool and the Compliance and Emissions
Data Reporting Interface. If we receive
no adverse comment, we will not take
further action on this proposed rule.

II. Background
In 2010, the EPA established NESHAP for the Portland Cement source
category. 75 FR 54970 (September 9, 2010). Specifically, the EPA
established emission standards for mercury (Hg), hydrogen chloride
(HCl), total hydrocarbons (THC) (or in the alternative, organic HAP
(oHAP), and particulate matter (PM). These standards, established
pursuant to section 112 (d) of the Act (CAA), reflected performance of
maximum available control technology. Following court remand, Portland
Cement Ass'n v. EPA, 665 F. 3d 177 (D.C. Cir. 2011), the EPA amended
some of these standards in 2013, and established a new compliance date
for the amended standards. 78 FR 10006 (Feb. 12, 2013). All of these
actions were upheld by the United States Court of Appeals for the
District of Columbia Circuit. Natural Resources Defense Council v. EPA,
749 F. 3d 1055 (D.C. Cir. 2014). The court, however, also vacated a
provision of the rule establishing an affirmative defense when
violations of the standards occurred because of malfunctions. 749 F. 3d
at 1063-64. In light of the court's vacatur, the regulatory provisions
establishing the affirmative defense are null and void. Thus, the EPA
plans to remove the affirmative defense regulatory text (40 CFR
63.1344) as part of the final technical corrections rule.
The EPA also adopted standards of performance for new Portland
cement sources as part of the same regulatory action establishing the
2010 NESHAP. 75 FR 54970(Sept. 9, 2010); see also Portland Cement Ass'n
v. EPA, 665 F. 3d at 190-92 (upholding these standards). The EPA is
proposing certain technical changes to these standards as part of
today's action. These changes do not affect the standards nor do they
affect the expected cost of compliance.
III. Discussion of the Issues Under Consideration
The EPA is proposing certain clarifying changes and corrections to
the 2013 final rule. Specifically, these amendments would: (1) Clarify
the definition of rolling average, operating day and run average; (2)
restore the table of emission limits which apply until the September 9,
2015, compliance date; (3) correct equation 8 regarding sources with an
alkali bypass or inline coal mill that include a separate stack; (4)
provide a scaling alternative for sources that have a wet scrubber,
tray tower or dry scrubber relative to the HCl compliance
demonstration; (5) add a temperature parameter to the startup and
shutdown requirements; (6) clarify language related to span values for
both Hg and HCl measurements; and (7) correct inadvertent typographical
errors. The EPA also proposes to clarify and correct certain
inadvertent inconsistencies in the final rule regulatory text, such as
correction of the compliance date for new sources and correction to the
compliance date regarding monitoring and recordkeeping requirements to
reflect the effective date of the final rule for the NSPS.
In both the NSPS and the NESHAP, we are proposing language to
clarify the existing definitions of Operating Day, Rolling Average and
Run Average to promote consistent and clear monitoring data recording
and emissions reporting. The clarifications below are in response to
industry questions and neither is intended to change the meaning of the
final rule. We propose to clarify that ``Operating Day'' is any 24-hour
period where clinker is produced. This clarification is necessary to
specify that during any day with both operations and emissions, an
emissions value or an average of emissions values representing those
operations is included in the 30-day rolling average calculation. We
also propose to clarify that ``Rolling Average'' means a weighted
average of all monitoring data collected during a specified time period
divided by all production of clinker during those same hours of
operation. This clarification is necessary to specify the way a long
term rolling average value is calculated such that different facilities
are not using different approaches to demonstrate compliance with the
rule. In addition, we propose to revise the definition of ``Run
Average'' to clarify that the run average means the average of the
recorded parameter values, not the 1-minute parameter values, for a
run.
We are proposing to amend 40 CFR 63.1349(b)(8)(vii) that includes a
provision describing performance testing requirements when a source
demonstrates compliance with the emissions standard using a continuous
emissions monitoring system (CEMS) for sulfur dioxide (SO2)
measurement and reporting.
We are proposing to add a scaling alternative whereby if a source
uses a wet scrubber, tray tower or dry scrubber, and where the test run
average of the three HCl compliance tests demonstrates compliance below
2.25 parts per million by volume (ppmv) (which is 75 percent of the HCl
emission limit), the source may calculate an operating limit by
establishing a relationship of the average SO2 CEMS signal
to the HCl concentration (corrected to 7 percent oxygen). The operating
limit would be established at a point where the SO2 CEMS
indicates the source would be at 2.25 ppmv. Since the 2.25 ppmv is
below the actual limit of 3.0 ppmv, the source will continue to
demonstrate compliance with the HCl standard. Given the fact that
SO2 controls preferentially remove HCl, an increase in
SO2 emissions would not indicate an increase in HCl
emissions as long as some SO2 emissions reductions are
occurring. Adding this compliance flexibility should not result in any
increase in HCl emissions. We solicit comment on this approach.
We also propose, under 40 CFR 63.1346(g)(3), to revise language
related to the use of air pollution control devices (APCD). During
startup, fuel feed is increased over time until normal operating
temperatures are achieved. According to industry, during both startup
and shutdown, the gas stream to the APCD will be above 12-percent
oxygen because the system is being operated at reduced fuel combustion
rates. The minimal temperature at which oxygen content is below 12
percent and thereby assuring the stream is nonexplosive, is 300 degrees
Fahrenheit. There are also issues with activated carbon and hydrated
lime being injected into large ducts with low gas flows. With low gas
flows, these materials fall out of the stream and accumulate in the
duct work. In addition, lime affected by water vapor condensation
present during startup and shutdown conditions will cause the lime to
harden and reduce the efficiency
[[Page 68824]]
for dust removal.\1\ Therefore, we propose to require the APCD be
turned on when the temperature of the APCD reaches 300 degrees
Fahrenheit. We also propose to clarify that this section is applicable
to HAP control devices, a requirement inadvertently missing from the
promulgated rule.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ These issues are further discussed in the docket, via
communication with John Holmes dated September 24, 2014.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
We propose to modify the measurement span criteria for HCl CEMS to
include better quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) for
measurements of elevated HCl emissions that may result from ``mill
off'' operations. This slight increase in measurement span (from 5
parts per million (ppm) to 10 ppm) provides for an improved balance
between accurately quantifying measurements at low emissions levels
(the majority of operating time) and improving QA/QC for brief periods
of elevated emissions observed during ``mill off'' operation (the
majority of HCl mass emissions).
We propose to remove 40 CFR 60.64(c)(2), which applied when sources
did not have valid 15-minute CEMS data. This provision allowed for
inclusion of the average emission rate from the previous hour for which
data were available. This provision was inadvertently added to the
final rule, but this substitution is not an allowable action. We
solicit comment on removal of this subsection.
We are also proposing to revise 40 CFR 63.1350(o) (Alternative
Monitoring Requirements Approval), since language in this section,
which does not allow an operator to apply for alternative THC
monitoring, is now obsolete. Since there is now alternative monitoring
allowed in 40 CFR 63.1350(j) due to the 2013 amendments (see 78 FR
10015), the exception is largely no longer needed. A source that emits
a high amount of THC due to methane emissions, for example, can follow
the alternative oHAP monitoring requirements. For any other reason that
an alternative THC monitoring protocol is warranted, we are proposing
the source be allowed to submit an application to the Administrator
subject to the provisions of 40 CFR 63.1350(o)(1) through (6).
IV. Plan To Remove Affirmative Defense
As noted above, the United States Court of Appeals for the District
of Columbia Circuit vacated the affirmative defense provisions
contained in the Portland Cement NESHAP rule. (NRDC v. EPA, 749 F. 3d
at 1063-64 (D.C. Cir. 2014). The court found that the EPA lacked
authority to establish an affirmative defense for private civil suits
and held that under the CAA, the authority to determine civil penalty
amounts in such cases lies exclusively with the courts, not the EPA.
Specifically, the court found: ``As the language of the statute makes
clear, the courts determine, on a case-by-case basis, whether civil
penalties are `appropriate.''' Id. at 1063. In light of this decision,
the affirmative defense provisions are null and void. The EPA plans to
remove the regulatory affirmative defense provisions as part of the
final technical corrections rule to reflect the court's vacatur. In the
event that a source fails to comply with the applicable CAA section 112
standards as a result of a malfunction event, the EPA would determine
an appropriate response based on, among other things, the good faith
efforts of the source to minimize emissions during malfunction periods,
including preventative and corrective actions, as well as root cause
analyses, to ascertain and rectify excess emissions. The EPA would also
consider whether the source's failure to comply with the CAA section
112 standard was, in fact, ``sudden, infrequent, not reasonably
preventable'' and was not instead ``caused in part by poor maintenance
or careless operation.'' 40 CFR 63.2 (definition of malfunction).
Further, to the extent the EPA files an enforcement action against
a source for violation of an emission standard, the source can raise
any and all defenses in that enforcement action and the federal
district court will determine what, if any, relief is appropriate. The
same is true for citizen enforcement actions. Similarly, the presiding
officer in an administrative proceeding can consider any defense raised
and determine whether administrative penalties are appropriate.
V. Solicitation of Public Comment on Proposed Amendments
At this time, the EPA is only proposing specific technical
corrections and clarifications to the final rule's requirements, and is
seeking comment on these corrections and clarifications. The EPA is not
proposing any other revisions to the final rule. The EPA is seeking
comment only on the specific proposed technical corrections proposed in
this document. The EPA will not respond to any comments addressing any
other issues or any other provisions of the final rule or any other
rule. The EPA is not seeking comment on its plan to remove the
affirmative defense regulatory text. The removal of the affirmative
defense merely corrects the regulation to reflect that the provisions
have no legal effect in light of the court's vacatur and, thus, notice
and comment is not required (See 5 U.S.C 553(b)(B)).
VI. Technical Corrections and Clarifications
These technical corrections and clarifications are being proposed
to correct inaccuracies and oversights that were promulgated in the
final rule and to make the rule language consistent with provisions
addressed through this reconsideration. We are soliciting comment only
on whether the proposed changes provide the intended accuracy, clarity
and consistency. These proposed changes are described in Tables 2 and 3
of this preamble. We request comment on all of these proposed changes.

VII. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
A. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory Planning and Review and Executive
Order 13563: Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review
This action is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under the
terms of Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and is
therefore not subject to review under Executive Orders 12866 and 13563
(76 FR 3821, January 21, 2011).
B. Paperwork Reduction Act
This action does not impose any new information collection burden.
The EPA is not proposing any new information collection activities
(e.g., monitoring, reporting, recordkeeping) as part of this action.
The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has previously approved the
information collection requirements contained in the existing
regulations under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44
U.S.C. 3501 et seq. and has assigned OMB control number 2060-0416. The
OMB control numbers for the EPA's regulations in 40 CFR are listed in
40 CFR part 9.
C. Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Regulatory Flexibility Act generally requires an agency to
prepare a regulatory flexibility analysis of any rule subject to notice
and comment rulemaking requirements under the Administrative Procedure
Act or any other statute unless the agency certifies that the rule will
not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small
entities. Small entities include small businesses, small organizations
and small governmental jurisdictions.
For purposes of assessing the impacts of this action on small
entities, small entity is defined as: (1) A small business as defined
by the Small Business Administration's regulations at 13 CFR 121.201;
(2) a small governmental jurisdiction that is a government of a city,
county, town, school district or special district with a population of
less than 50,000; and (3) a small organization that is any not-for-
profit enterprise which is independently owned and operated and is not
dominant in its field.
After considering the economic impacts of this proposed rule on
small entities, I certify that this action will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. This
proposed rule will not impose any new requirements on small entities.
We continue to be interested in the potential impacts of the proposed
rule on small entities and welcome comments on issues related to such
impacts.
D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
This action does not contain a federal mandate that may result in
expenditures of $100 million or more for state, local and tribal
governments, in the aggregate, or the private sector in any one year.
This action proposes minor changes to the rule to correct and clarify
technical issues raised by stakeholders and, thus, does not exceed
estimated costs developed for the final rule (refer to final Technical
Support Document EPA-HQ-OAR-2011-0817-0845). Thus, this rule is not
subject to the requirements of section 202 and 205 of the UMRA. This
rule is also not subject to the requirements of section 203 of UMRA
because it contains no regulatory requirements that might significantly
or uniquely affect small governments. This action contains no
requirements that apply to such governments, imposes no obligations
upon them and will not result in expenditures by them of $100 million
or more in any one year or incur any disproportionate impacts on them.
E. Executive Order 13132: Federalism
This action does not have federalism implications. It will not have
substantial direct effects on the states, on the relationship between
the national government and the states, or on the distribution of power
and responsibilities among the various levels of government, as
specified in Executive Order 13132. This action seeks comment on
proposed technical corrections to the NESHAP for Portland Cement
Manufacturing sources located at major sources of HAP without proposing
any changes to the rule. Thus, Executive Order 13132 does not apply to
this action.
In the spirit of Executive Order 13132, and consistent with EPA
policy to promote communications between the EPA and state and local
governments, the EPA specifically solicits comment on this proposed
action from state and local officials.
F. Executive Order 13175: Consultation and Coordination With Indian
Tribal Governments
This action does not have tribal implications, as specified in
Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000). This action will
not have substantial direct effects on tribal governments, on the
relationship between the federal government and Indian tribes or on the
distribution of power and responsibilities between the federal
government and Indian tribes, as specified in Executive Order 13175.
Thus, Executive Order 13175 does not apply to this action.
The EPA specifically solicits additional comment on this proposed
action from tribal officials.
G. Executive Order 13045: Protection of Children From Environmental
Health Risks and Safety Risks
The EPA interprets Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23,
1997) as applying to those regulatory actions that concern health or
safety risks, such that the analysis required under section 5-501 of
the Executive Order has the potential to influence the regulation. This
action is not subject to Executive Order 13045 because it is based
solely on technology performance.
H. Executive Order 13211: Actions Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use
This action is not subject to Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355
(May 22, 2001) because it is not a significant regulatory action under
Executive Order 12866.
I. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act
Section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement
Act (NTTAA) of 1995, Public Law 104-113, 12(d), (15 U.S.C. 272 note)
directs the EPA to use voluntary consensus standards (VCS) in its
regulatory activities, unless to do so would be inconsistent with
applicable law or otherwise impractical. The VCS are technical
standards (e.g., materials specifications, test methods, sampling
[[Page 68828]]
procedures and business practices) that are developed or adopted by VCS
bodies. The NTTAA directs the EPA to provide Congress, through OMB,
explanations when the agency does not use available and applicable VCS.
This proposed rule does not involve technical standards. Therefore,
the EPA is not considering the use of any VCS.
J. Executive Order 12898: Federal Actions To Address Environmental
Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, Feb. 16, 1994) establishes
federal executive policy on environmental justice. Its main provision
directs federal agencies, to the greatest extent practicable and
permitted by law, to make environmental justice part of their mission
by identifying and addressing, as appropriate, disproportionately high
and adverse human health or environmental effects of their programs,
policies and activities on minority populations and low-income
populations in the United States.
An analysis of demographic data was prepared for the 2010 final
rule and can be found in the docket for that rulemaking (See docket
item EPA-HQ-OAR-2011-0817). The impacts of the 2010 rule, which assumed
full compliance, are expected to be unchanged as a result of this
action. Therefore, beginning from the date of full compliance, the EPA
has determined that the proposed rule will not have disproportionately
high and adverse human health or environmental effects on minority or
low-income populations because it increases the level of environmental
protection for all affected populations without having any
disproportionately high and adverse human health or environmental
effects on any population, including any minority or low-income
populations. In addition, the full benefits of this final rule will not
result until 2015 due to the final amended compliance date but the
demographic analysis showed that the average of populations in close
proximity to the sources, and thus most likely to be affected by the
sources, were similar in demographic composition to national averages.

(f) Operating day means a 24-hour period beginning at 12:00
midnight during which the kiln produces clinker at any time. For
calculating Rolling Average emissions, an operating day does not
include the hours of operation during startup or shutdown.
(g) Rolling average means the weighted average of all data, meeting
QA/QC requirements or otherwise normalized, collected during the
applicable averaging period. The period of a rolling average stipulates
the frequency of data averaging and reporting; a thirty-day rolling
average period requires calculation of a new average value each day
that includes the average emissions over the previous thirty days
divided by the total production during these same periods. A twelve
month rolling average stipulates a new average value calculated each
month that includes the average emissions over the previous twelve
months divided by the total production during the same periods.

compliance with the more stringent limit, the less stringent limit
continues to apply.
(e) The compliance date for all revised monitoring and
recordkeeping requirements contained in this rule will be the same as
listed in 63.1351(c) unless you commenced construction as of June 16,
2008, at which time the compliance date is November 8, 2010 or upon
startup, whichever is later.

4. Section 60.63 is amended by revising paragraphs (c)(1), (c)(2)(i),
(c)(2)(iii), (c)(3), (c)(4)(ii), (c)(4)(iii), (c)(4)(iv), (c)(5),
(c)(6), and (c)(7) to read as follows:
Sec. 60.63 Monitoring of operations.
* * * * *
(c) *** (1) For each kiln or clinker cooler subject to a PM
emissions limit in Sec. 60.62(a)1(ii) and 60.62(a)1(iii), you must
demonstrate compliance through an initial performance test. You will
conduct your performance test using Method 5 or Method 5I at appendix
A-3 to part 60 of this chapter. You must also monitor continuous
performance through use of a PM CPMS.
[[Page 68829]]
(2) * * *
(i) Your PM CPMS must provide a 4-20 milliamp or digital signal
output and the establishment of its relationship to manual reference
method measurements must be determined in units of milliamps or the
monitors digital equivalent.
* * * * *
(iii) During the initial performance test or any such subsequent
performance test that demonstrates compliance with the PM limit, record
and average all milliamp or digital output values from the PM CPMS for
the periods corresponding to the compliance test runs (e.g., average
all your PM CPMS output values for three corresponding 2-hour Method 5I
test runs).
(3) Determine your operating limit as specified in paragraphs
(c)(4)(i) through (c)(5) of this section. If your PM performance test
demonstrates your PM emission levels to be below 75 percent of your
emission limit, you will use the average PM CPMS value recorded during
the PM compliance test, the milliamp or digital equivalent of zero
output from your PM CPMS, and the average PM result of your compliance
test to establish your operating limit. If your PM compliance test
demonstrates your PM emission levels to be at or above 75 percent of
your emission limit, you will use the average PM CPMS value recorded
during the PM compliance test to establish your operating limit. You
must verify an existing or establish a new operating limit after each
repeated performance test. You must repeat the performance test at
least annually and reassess and adjust the site-specific operating
limit in accordance with the results of the performance test.
(4) * * *
(ii) * * *
X1 = The PM CPMS data points for the three runs
constituting the performance test.
Y1 = The PM concentration value for the three runs
constituting the performance test, and
n = The number of data points.
(iii) With your PM CPMS instrument zero expressed in milliamps or a
digital value, your three run average PM CPMS milliamp or digital
signal value, and your three run average PM concentration from your
three PM performance test runs, determine a relationship of lb/ton-
clinker per milliamp with equation 2.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP19NO14.019
Where:
R = The relative lb/ton clinker per milliamp for your PM CPMS.
Y1 = The three run average PM lb/ton clinker.
X1 = The three run average milliamp output from your PM
CPMS.
z = the milliamp equivalent of your instrument zero determined from
(c)(4)(i) of this section.
(iv) Determine your source specific 30-day rolling average
operating limit using the lb/ton-clinker per milliamp or digital signal
value from Equation 2 above in Equation 3, below. This sets your
operating limit at the PM CPMS output value corresponding to 75 percent
of your emission limit.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP19NO14.041
Where:
Ol = The operating limit for your PM CPMS on a 30-day
rolling average, in milliamps or the digital equivalent.
L = Your source emission limit expressed in lb/ton clinker.
z = Your instrument zero in milliamps or a digital equivalent,
determined from (1)(i).
R = The relative lb/ton-clinker per milliamp or digital equivalent,
for your PM CPMS, from Equation 2.
(5) If the average of your three PM compliance test runs is at or
above 75 percent of your PM emission limit, you must determine your
operating limit by averaging the PM CPMS milliamp output corresponding
to your three PM performance test runs that demonstrate compliance with
the emission limit using Equation 4.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP19NO14.020
Where:
X1 = The PM CPMS data points for all runs i.
n = The number of data points.
Oh = Your site specific operating limit, in milliamps or
digital equivalent.
(6) To determine continuous compliance, you must record the PM CPMS
output data for all periods when the process is operating, and use all
the PM CPMS data for calculations when the source is not out-of-
control. You must demonstrate continuous compliance by using all
quality-assured hourly average data collected by the PM CPMS for all
operating hours to calculate the arithmetic average operating parameter
in units of the operating limit (milliamps or the digital equivalent)
on a 30 operating day rolling average basis, updated at the end of each
new kiln operating day. Use Equation 5 to determine the 30 kiln
operating day average.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP19NO14.021
Where:
Hpvi = The hourly parameter value for hour i.
n = The number of valid hourly parameter values collected over the
previous 30 kiln operating days.
(7) Use EPA Method 5 or Method 5I of appendix A to part 60 of this
chapter to determine PM emissions. For each performance test, conduct
at least three separate runs each while the mill is on and the mill is
off under the conditions that exist when the affected source is
operating at the highest load or capacity level reasonably expected to
occur. Conduct each test run to collect a minimum sample volume of 2
dscm for determining compliance with a new source limit and 1 dscm for
determining compliance with an existing source limit. Calculate the
time weighted average of the results from three consecutive runs to
determine compliance. You need not determine the particulate matter
collected in the impingers (``back half'') of the Method 5 or Method 5I
particulate sampling train to demonstrate compliance with the PM
standards of this subpart. This shall not preclude the permitting
authority from requiring a determination of the ``back half'' for other
purposes.

7. Section 63.1341 is amended by revising the definitions for
``Operating day'', ``Rolling average'', and ``Run average'' to read as
follows:
Sec. 63.1341 Definitions.
* * * * *
Operating day means any 24-hour period beginning at 12:00 midnight
during which the kiln produces any amount of clinker. For calculating
the rolling average emissions, kiln operating days do not include the
hours of operation during startup or shutdown.
* * * * *
Rolling average means the weighted average of all data, meeting QA/
QC requirements or otherwise normalized, collected during the
applicable averaging period. The period of a rolling average stipulates
the frequency of data averaging and reporting; a thirty-day rolling
average period requires calculation of a new average value each day
that includes the average emissions over the previous thirty days
divided by the total production during these same periods. A twelve
month rolling average stipulates a new average value calculated each
month that includes the average emissions over the previous twelve
months divided by the total production during the same periods.
Run average means the average of the recorded parameter values for
a run.
* * * * *
0
8. Section 63.1343 is amended by revising paragraphs (a), Table 1 in
paragraph (b)(1), (b)(2), and (d) to read as follows:
Sec. 63.1343 What standards apply to my kilns, clinker coolers, raw
material dryers, and open clinker storage piles?
(a) General. The provisions in this section apply to each kiln and
any alkali bypass associated with that kiln, clinker cooler, raw
material dryer, and open clinker storage pile. All D/F, HCl, and total
hydrocarbon (THC) emissions limit are on a dry basis. The D/F, HCl, and
THC limits for kilns are corrected to 7 percent oxygen. All THC
emissions limits are measured as propane. Standards for mercury and THC
are based on a rolling 30-day average. If using a CEMS to determine
compliance with the HCl standard, this standard is based on a rolling
30-day average. You must ensure appropriate corrections for moisture
are made when measuring flow rates used to calculate mercury emissions.
The 30-day period means all operating hours within 30 consecutive kiln
operating days excluding periods of startup and shutdown. All emissions
limits for kilns, clinker coolers, and raw material dryers currently in
effect that are superseded by the limits below continue to apply until
the compliance date of the limits below, or until the source certifies
compliance with the limits below, whichever is earlier.

(2) When there is an alkali bypass and/or an inline coal mill with
a separate stack associated with a kiln, the combined PM emissions from
the kiln and the alkali bypass stack and/or the inline coal mill stack
are subject to the PM emissions limit. Existing kilns that combine the
clinker cooler exhaust and/or coal mill exhaust with the kiln exhaust
and send the combined exhaust to the PM control device as a single
stream may meet an alternative PM emissions limit. This limit is
calculated using Equation 1 of this section:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP19NO14.044
Where:
PMalt = Alternative PM emission limit for commingled
sources.
0.006 = The PM exhaust concentration (gr/dscf) equivalent to 0.070
lb per ton clinker where clinker cooler and kiln exhaust gas are not
combined.
1.65 = The conversion factor of ton feed per ton clinker.
Qk = The exhaust flow of the kiln (dscf/ton feed).
Qc = The exhaust flow of the clinker cooler (dscf/ton
feed).
Qab = The exhaust flow of the alkali bypass (dscf/ton
feed).
Qcm = The exhaust flow of the coal mill (dscf/ton feed).
7000 = The conversion factor for grains (gr) per lb.
For new kilns that combine kiln exhaust, clinker cooler gas and/or
coal mill and alkali bypass exhaust, the limit is calculated using the
Equation 2 of this section:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP19NO14.045
Where:
PMalt = Alternative PM emission limit for commingled
sources.
0.002 = The PM exhaust concentration (gr/dscf) equivalent to 0.020
lb per ton clinker where clinker cooler and kiln exhaust gas are not
combined.

10. Section 63.1349 is amended by revising paragraph (b) to read as
follows:
Sec. 63.1349 Performance testing requirements.
* * * * *
(b)(1) PM emissions tests. The owner or operator of a kiln subject
to limitations on PM emissions shall demonstrate initial compliance by
conducting a performance test using Method 5 or Method 5I at appendix
A-3 to part 60 of this chapter. You must also monitor continuous
performance through use of a PM continuous parametric monitoring system
(PM CPMS).
(i) For your PM CPMS, you will establish a site-specific operating
limit. If your PM performance test demonstrates your PM emission levels
to be below 75 percent of your emission limit you will use the average
PM CPMS value recorded during the PM compliance test, the milliamp
equivalent of zero output from your PM CPMS, and the average PM result
of your compliance test to establish your operating limit. If your PM
compliance test demonstrates your PM emission levels to be at or above
75 percent of your emission limit you will use the average PM CPMS
value recorded during the PM compliance test to establish your
operating limit. You will use the PM CPMS to demonstrate continuous
compliance with your operating limit. You must repeat the performance
test annually and reassess and adjust the site-specific operating limit
in accordance with the results of the performance test.
(A) Your PM CPMS must provide a 4-20 milliamp or digital signal
output and
[[Page 68832]]
the establishment of its relationship to manual reference method
measurements must be determined in units of milliamps or the monitors
digital equivalent.
(B) Your PM CPMS operating range must be capable of reading PM
concentrations from zero to a level equivalent to three times your
allowable emission limit. If your PM CPMS is an auto-ranging instrument
capable of multiple scales, the primary range of the instrument must be
capable of reading PM concentration from zero to a level equivalent to
three times your allowable emission limit.
(C) During the initial performance test or any such subsequent
performance test that demonstrates compliance with the PM limit, record
and average all milliamp or digital output values from the PM CPMS for
the periods corresponding to the compliance test runs (e.g., average
all your PM CPMS output values for three corresponding Method 5I test
runs).
(ii) Determine your operating limit as specified in paragraphs
(b)(1)(iii) through (iv) of this section. If your PM performance test
demonstrates your PM emission levels to be below 75 percent of your
emission limit you will use the average PM CPMS value recorded during
the PM compliance test, the milliamp or digital equivalent of zero
output from your PM CPMS, and the average PM result of your compliance
test to establish your operating limit. If your PM compliance test
demonstrates your PM emission levels to be at or above 75 percent of
your emission limit you will use the average PM CPMS value recorded
during the PM compliance test to establish your operating limit. You
must verify an existing or establish a new operating limit after each
repeated performance test. You must repeat the performance test at
least annually and reassess and adjust the site-specific operating
limit in accordance with the results of the performance test.
(iii) If the average of your three Method 5 or 5I compliance test
runs is below 75 percent of your PM emission limit, you must calculate
an operating limit by establishing a relationship of PM CPMS signal to
PM concentration using the PM CPMS instrument zero, the average PM CPMS
values corresponding to the three compliance test runs, and the average
PM concentration from the Method 5 or 5I compliance test with the
procedures in (a)(1)(iii)(A) through (D) of this section.
(A) Determine your PM CPMS instrument zero output with one of the
following procedures.
(1) Zero point data for in-situ instruments should be obtained by
removing the instrument from the stack and monitoring ambient air on a
test bench.
(2) Zero point data for extractive instruments should be obtained
by removing the extractive probe from the stack and drawing in clean
ambient air.
(3) The zero point may also be established by performing manual
reference method measurements when the flue gas is free of PM emissions
or contains very low PM concentrations (e.g., when your process is not
operating, but the fans are operating or your source is combusting only
natural gas) and plotting these with the compliance data to find the
zero intercept.
(4) If none of the steps in paragraphs (a)(1)(iii)(A)(1) through
(3) of this section are possible, you must use a zero output value
provided by the manufacturer.
(B) Determine your PM CPMS instrument average in milliamps, and the
average of your corresponding three PM compliance test runs, using
equation 3.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP19NO14.022
Where:
X1 = The PM CPMS data points for the three runs
constituting the performance test.
Y1 = The PM concentration value for the three runs
constituting the performance test.
n = The number of data points.
(C) With your instrument zero expressed in milliamps or a digital
value, your three run average PM CPMS milliamp or digital signal value,
and your three run PM compliance test average, determine a relationship
of lb/ton-clinker per milliamp with Equation 4.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP19NO14.023
Where:
R = The relative lb/ton-clinker per milliamp for your PM CPMS.
Y1 = The three run average lb/ton-clinker PM
concentration.
X1 = The three run average milliamp output from your PM
CPMS.
z = The milliamp equivalent of your instrument zero determined from
(b)(1)(iii)(A).
(D) Determine your source specific 30-day rolling average operating
limit using the lb/ton-clinker per milliamp or digital signal value
from Equation 4 in Equation 5, below. This sets your operating limit at
the PM CPMS output value corresponding to 75 percent of your emission
limit.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP19NO14.024
Where:
Ol = The operating limit for your PM CPMS on a 30-day
rolling average, in milliamps or the digital equivalent.
L = Your source emission limit expressed in lb/ton clinker.
z = Your instrument zero in milliamps, or digital equivalent,
determined from (1)(i).
R = The relative lb/ton-clinker per milliamp, or digital equivalent,
for your PM CPMS, from Equation 4.
(iv) If the average of your three PM compliance test runs is at or
above 75 percent of your PM emission limit you must determine your
operating limit by averaging the PM CPMS milliamp output corresponding
to your three PM performance test runs that demonstrate compliance with
the emission limit using Equation 6.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP19NO14.025
Where:
X1 = The PM CPMS data points for all runs i.
n = The number of data points.
Oh = Your site specific operating limit, in milliamps or
the digital equivalent.
(v) To determine continuous operating compliance, you must record
the PM CPMS output data for all periods when the process is operating,
and use all the PM CPMS data for calculations when the source is not
out-of-control. You must demonstrate continuous compliance by using all
quality-assured hourly average data collected by the PM CPMS for all
operating hours to calculate the arithmetic average operating parameter
in units of the operating limit (milliamps or the digital equivalent)
on a 30 operating day rolling average basis, updated at the end of each
new kiln operating day. Use Equation 7 to determine the 30 kiln
operating day average.
[[Page 68833]]
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP19NO14.026
Where:
Hpvi = The hourly parameter value for hour i.
n = The number of valid hourly parameter values collected over 30
kiln operating days.
(vi) For each performance test, conduct at least three separate
test runs each while the mill is on and the mill is off, under the
conditions that exist when the affected source is operating at the
highest load or capacity level reasonably expected to occur. Conduct
each test run to collect a minimum sample volume of 2 dscm for
determining compliance with a new source limit and 1 dscm for
determining compliance with an existing source limit. Calculate the
time weighted average of the results from three consecutive runs,
including applicable sources as required by (D)(viii), to determine
compliance. You need not determine the particulate matter collected in
the impingers (``back half'') of the Method 5 or Method 5I particulate
sampling train to demonstrate compliance with the PM standards of this
subpart. This shall not preclude the permitting authority from
requiring a determination of the ``back half'' for other purposes.
(vii) For PM performance test reports used to set a PM CPMS
operating limit, the electronic submission of the test report must also
include the make and model of the PM CPMS instrument, serial number of
the instrument, analytical principle of the instrument (e.g. beta
attenuation), span of the instruments primary analytical range,
milliamp value equivalent to the instrument zero output, technique by
which this zero value was determined, and the average milliamp signals
corresponding to each PM compliance test run.
(viii) When there is an alkali bypass and/or an inline coal mill
with a separate stack associated with a kiln, the main exhaust and
alkali bypass and/or inline coal mill must be tested simultaneously and
the combined emission rate of PM from the kiln and alkali bypass and/or
inline coal mill must be computed for each run using Equation 8 of this
section.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP19NO14.027
Where:
ECm = Combined hourly emission rate of PM from the kiln
and bypass stack and/or inline coal mill, lb/ton of kiln clinker
production.
EK = Hourly emissions of PM emissions from the kiln, lb.
EB = Hourly PM emissions from the alkali bypass stack,
lb.
EC = Hourly PM emissions from the inline coal mill stack,
lb.
P = Hourly clinker production, tons.
(ix) The owner or operator of a kiln with an in-line raw mill and
subject to limitations on PM emissions shall demonstrate initial
compliance by conducting separate performance tests while the raw mill
is under normal operating conditions and while the raw mill is not
operating, and calculate the time weighted average emissions using
63.1349(b)(1)(i) of this section.
(2) Opacity tests. If you are subject to limitations on opacity
under this subpart, you must conduct opacity tests in accordance with
Method 9 of appendix A-4 to part 60 of this chapter. The duration of
the Method 9 performance test must be 3 hours (30 6-minute averages),
except that the duration of the Method 9 performance test may be
reduced to 1 hour if the conditions of paragraphs (b)(2)(i) through
(b)(2)(ii) of this section apply. For batch processes that are not run
for 3-hour periods or longer, compile observations totaling 3 hours
when the unit is operating.
(i) There are no individual readings greater than 10 percent
opacity;
(ii) There are no more than three readings of 10 percent for the
first 1-hour period.
(3) D/F Emissions Tests. If you are subject to limitations on D/F
emissions under this subpart, you must conduct a performance test using
Method 23 of appendix A-7 to part 60 of this chapter. If your kiln or
in-line kiln/raw mill is equipped with an alkali bypass, you must
conduct simultaneous performance tests of the kiln or in-line kiln/raw
mill exhaust and the alkali bypass. You may conduct a performance test
of the alkali bypass exhaust when the raw mill of the in-line kiln/raw
mill is operating or not operating.
(i) Each performance test must consist of three separate runs
conducted under representative conditions. The duration of each run
must be at least 3 hours, and the sample volume for each run must be at
least 2.5 dscm (90 dscf).
(ii) The temperature at the inlet to the kiln or in-line kiln/raw
mill PMCD, and, where applicable, the temperature at the inlet to the
alkali bypass PMCD must be continuously recorded during the period of
the Method 23 test, and the continuous temperature record(s) must be
included in the performance test report.
(iii) Average temperatures must be calculated for each run of the
performance test.
(iv) The run average temperature must be calculated for each run,
and the average of the run average temperatures must be determined and
included in the performance test report and will determine the
applicable temperature limit in accordance with Sec. 63.1344(b).
(v)(A) If sorbent injection is used for D/F control, you must
record the rate of sorbent injection to the kiln exhaust, and where
applicable, the rate of sorbent injection to the alkali bypass exhaust,
continuously during the period of the Method 23 test in accordance with
the conditions in Sec. 63.1350(m)(9), and include the continuous
injection rate record(s) in the performance test report. Determine the
sorbent injection rate parameters in accordance with paragraphs
(b)(3)(vi) of this section.
(B) Include the brand and type of sorbent used during the
performance test in the performance test report.
(C) Maintain a continuous record of either the carrier gas flow
rate or the carrier gas pressure drop for the duration of the
performance test. If the carrier gas flow rate is used, determine,
record, and maintain a record of the accuracy of the carrier gas flow
rate monitoring system according to the procedures in appendix A to
part 75 of this chapter. If the carrier gas pressure drop is used,
determine, record, and maintain a record of the accuracy of the carrier
gas pressure drop monitoring system according to the procedures in
Sec. 63.1350(m)(6).
(vi) Calculate the run average sorbent injection rate for each run
and determine and include the average of the run average injection
rates in the performance test report and determine the applicable
injection rate limit in accordance with Sec. 63.1346(c)(1).
(4) THC emissions test. (i) If you are subject to limitations on
THC emissions, you must operate a CEMS in accordance with the
requirements in Sec. 63.1350(i). For the purposes of conducting the
accuracy and quality assurance evaluations for CEMS, the THC span value
(as propane) is 50 ppmvd and the
[[Page 68834]]
reference method (RM) is Method 25A of appendix A to part 60 of this
chapter.
(ii) Use the THC CEMS to conduct the initial compliance test for
the first 30 kiln operating days of kiln operation after the compliance
date of the rule. See 63.1348(a).
(iii) If kiln gases are diverted through an alkali bypass or to a
coal mill and exhausted through a separate stack, you must calculate a
kiln-specific THC limit using Equation 9:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP19NO14.028
Where:
Cks = Kiln stack concentration (ppmvd).
Qab = Alkali bypass flow rate (volume/hr).
Cab = Alkali bypass concentration (ppmvd).
Qcm = Coal mill flow rate (volume/hr).
Ccm = Coal mill concentration (ppmvd).
Qks = Kiln stack flow rate (volume/hr).
(iv) THC must be measured either upstream of the coal mill or the
coal mill stack.
(v) Instead of conducting the performance test specified in
paragraph (b)(4) of this section, you may conduct a performance test to
determine emissions of total organic HAP by following the procedures in
paragraphs (b)(7) of this section.
(5) Mercury Emissions Tests. If you are subject to limitations on
mercury emissions, you must operate a mercury CEMS or a sorbent trap
monitoring system in accordance with the requirements of Sec.
63.1350(k). The initial compliance test must be based on the first 30
kiln operating days in which the affected source operates using a
mercury CEMS or a sorbent trap monitoring system after the compliance
date of the rule. See Sec. 63.1348(a).
(i) If you are using a mercury CEMS or a sorbent trap monitoring
system, you must install, operate, calibrate, and maintain an
instrument for continuously measuring and recording the exhaust gas
flow rate to the atmosphere according to the requirements in Sec.
63.1350(k)(5).
(ii) Calculate the emission rate using Equation 10 of this section:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP19NO14.029
Where:
E30D = 30-day rolling emission rate of mercury, lb/MM
tons clinker.
Ci = Concentration of mercury for operating hour i,
[mu]g/scm.
Qi = Volumetric flow rate of effluent gas for operating
hour i, where Ci and Qi are on the same basis
(either wet or dry), scm/hr.
k = Conversion factor, 1 lb/454,000,000 [mu]g.
n = Number of kiln operating hours in the previous 30 kiln operating
day period where both C and Qi qualified data are available.
P = Total runs from the previous 30 days of clinker production
during the same time period as the mercury emissions measured,
million tons.
(6) HCl emissions tests. For a source subject to limitations on HCl
emissions you must conduct performance testing by one of the following
methods:
(i)(A) If the source is equipped with a wet scrubber, tray tower or
dry scrubber, you must conduct performance testing using Method 321 of
appendix A to this part unless you have installed a CEMS that meets the
requirements Sec. 63.1350(l)(1). For kilns with inline raw mills,
testing should be conducted for the raw mill on and raw mill off
conditions.
(B) You must establish site specific parameter limits by using the
CPMS required in Sec. 63.1350(l)(1). For a wet scrubber or tray tower,
measure and record the pressure drop across the scrubber and/or liquid
flow rate and pH in intervals of no more than 15 minutes during the HCl
test. Compute and record the 24-hour average pressure drop, pH, and
average scrubber water flow rate for each sampling run in which the
applicable emissions limit is met. For a dry scrubber, measure and
record the sorbent injection rate in intervals of no more than 15
minutes during the HCl test. Compute and record the 24-hour average
sorbent injection rate and average sorbent injection rate for each
sampling run in which the applicable emissions limit is met.
(ii)(A) If the source is not controlled by a wet scrubber, tray
tower or dry sorbent injection system, you must operate a CEMS in
accordance with the requirements of Sec. 63.1350(l)(1). See Sec.
63.1348(a).
(B) The initial compliance test must be based on the 30 kiln
operating days that occur after the compliance date of this rule in
which the affected source operates using a HCl CEMS. Hourly HCl
concentration data must be obtained according to Sec. 63.1350(l).
(iii) As an alternative to paragraph (b)(6)(i)(B) of this section,
you may choose to monitor SO2 emissions using a CEMS in
accordance with the requirements of Sec. 63.1350(l)(3). You must
establish an SO2 operating limit equal to the average
recorded during the HCl stack test where the HCl stack test run result
demonstrates compliance with the emission limit. This operating limit
will apply only for demonstrating HCl compliance.
(iv) If kiln gases are diverted through an alkali bypass or to a
coal mill and exhausted through a separate stack, you must calculate a
kiln-specific HCl limit using Equation 11:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP19NO14.030
Where:
Cks = Kiln stack concentration (ppmvd).
Qab = Alkali bypass flow rate (volume/hr).
Cab = Alkali bypass concentration (ppmvd).
Qcm = Coal mill flow rate (volume/hr).
Ccm = Coal mill concentration (ppmvd).
Qks = Kiln stack flow rate (volume/hr).
(7) Total Organic HAP Emissions Tests. Instead of conducting the
performance test specified in paragraph (b)(4) of this section, you may
conduct a performance test to determine emissions of total organic HAP
by following the procedures in paragraphs (b)(7)(i) through (v) of this
section.
(i) Use Method 320 of appendix A to this part, Method 18 of
Appendix A of part 60, ASTM D6348-03 or a combination to determine
emissions of total organic HAP. Each performance test must consist of
three separate runs under the conditions that exist when the affected
source is operating at the representative performance conditions in
accordance with Sec. 63.7(e). Each run must be conducted for at least
1 hour.
[[Page 68835]]
(ii) At the same time that you are conducting the performance test
for total organic HAP, you must also determine a site-specific THC
emissions limit by operating a THC CEMS in accordance with the
requirements of Sec. 63.1350(j). The duration of the performance test
must be at least 3 hours and the average THC concentration (as
calculated from the recorded output) during the 3-hour test must be
calculated. You must establish your THC operating limit and determine
compliance with it according to paragraphs (a)(7)(vii) through (viii)
of this section. It is permissible to extend the testing time of the
organic HAP performance test if you believe extended testing is
required to adequately capture organic HAP and/or THC variability over
time.
(iii) If your source has an in-line kiln/raw mill you must use the
fraction of time the raw mill is on and the fraction of time that the
raw mill is off and calculate this limit as a weighted average of the
THC levels measured during three raw mill on and three raw mill off
tests.
(iv) If your organic HAP emissions are below 75 percent of the
organic HAP standard and you determine your operating limit with
paragraph (b)(7)(vii) of this section your THC CEMS must be calibrated
and operated on a measurement scale no greater than 180 ppmvw, as
carbon, or 60 ppmvw as propane.
(v) If your kiln has an inline coal mill, and you are required to
measure at the coal mill inlet, you must also measure oHAP at the coal
mil inlet and calculate a weighted average for all emission sources
including the inline coal mill and the alkali bypass.
(vi) Your THC CEMS measurement scale must be capable of reading THC
concentrations from zero to a level equivalent to two times your
highest THC emissions average determined during your performance test,
including mill on or mill off operation.
Note: This may require the use of a dual range instrument to
meet this requirement and paragraph (b)(7)(iv) of this section.
(vii) Determine your operating limit as specified in paragraphs
(a)(7)(vii) and (viii) of this section. If your organic HAP performance
test demonstrates your average organic HAP emission levels are below 75
percent of your emission limit (9 ppmv) you will use the average THC
value recorded during the organic HAP performance test, and the average
total organic HAP result of your performance test to establish your
operating limit. If your organic HAP compliance test results
demonstrate that your average organic HAP emission levels are at or
above 75 percent of your emission limit, your operating limit is
established as the average THC value recorded during the organic HAP
performance test. You must establish a new operating limit after each
performance test. You must repeat the performance test no later than 30
months following your last performance test and reassess and adjust the
site-specific operating limit in accordance with the results of the
performance test.
(viii) If the average organic HAP results for your three Method 18
and/or Method 320 performance test runs are below 75 percent of your
organic HAP emission limit, you must calculate an operating limit by
establishing a relationship of THC CEMS signal to the organic HAP
concentration using the average THC CEMS value corresponding to the
three organic HAP compliance test runs and the average organic HAP
total concentration from the Method 18 and/or Method 320 performance
test runs with the procedures in (a)(7)(vii)(A) and (B) of this
section.
(A) Determine the THC CEMS average values in ppmvw, and the average
of your corresponding three total organic HAP compliance test runs,
using Equation 12.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP19NO14.031
Where:
x = The THC CEMS average values in ppmvw.
Xi = The THC CEMS data points for all three runs i.
Yi = The sum of organic HAP concentrations for test runs i. and
n = The number of data points.
(B) You must use your three run average THC CEMS value and your
three run average organic HAP concentration from your three Method 18
and/or Method 320 compliance tests to determine the operating limit.
Use equation 13 to determine your operating limit in units of ppmvw
THC, as propane.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP19NO14.032
Where:
Tl = The 30-day operating limit for your THC CEMS, ppmvw.
Y1 = The average organic HAP concentration from Eq. 12,
ppmv.
X1 = The average THC CEMS concentration from Eq. 12,
ppmvw.
(ix) If the average of your three organic HAP performance test runs
is at or above 75 percent of your organic HAP emission limit, you must
determine your operating limit using Equation 14 by averaging the THC
CEMS output values corresponding to your three organic HAP performance
test runs that demonstrate compliance with the emission limit. If your
new THC CEMS value is below your current operating limit, you may opt
to retain your current operating limit, but you must still submit all
performance test and THC CEMS data according to the reporting
requirements in paragraph (d)(1) of this section.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP19NO14.033
Where:
X1 = The THC CEMS data points for all runs i.
n = The number of data points.
Th = Your site specific operating limit, in ppmvw THC.
(x) If your kiln has an inline kiln/raw mill, you must conduct
separate performance tests while the raw mill is operating (``mill
on'') and while the raw mill is not operating (``mill off''). Using the
fraction of time the raw mill is on and the fraction of time that the
raw mill is off, calculate this limit as a weighted average of the THC
levels measured during raw mill on and raw mill off compliance testing
with Equation 15.

Where:
R = Operating limit as THC, ppmvw.
y = Average THC CEMS value during mill on operations, ppmvw.
t = Percentage of operating time with mill on.
x = Average THC CEMS value during mill off operations, ppmvw.
(1-t) = Percentage of operating time with mill off.
(xi) To determine continuous compliance with the THC operating
limit, you must record the THC CEMS output data for all periods when
the process is operating and the THC CEMS is not out-of-control. You
must demonstrate continuous compliance by using all quality-assured
hourly average data collected by the THC CEMS for all operating hours
to calculate the arithmetic average operating parameter in units of the
operating limit (ppmvw) on a 30 operating day rolling average basis,
updated at the end of each new kiln operating day. Use Equation 16 to
determine the 30 kiln operating day average.

Where:
Hpvi = The hourly parameter value for hour i, ppmvw.
n = The number of valid hourly parameter values collected over 30
kiln operating days.
(xii) Use EPA Method 18 or Method 320 of appendix A to part 60 of
this chapter to determine organic HAP emissions. For each performance
test, conduct at least three separate runs under the conditions that
exist when the affected source is operating at the level reasonably
expected to occur. If your source has an in-line kiln/raw mill you must
conduct three separate test runs with the raw mill on, and three
separate runs under the conditions that exist when the affected source
is operating at the level reasonably expected to occur with the mill
off. Conduct each Method 18 test run to collect a minimum target sample
equivalent to three times the method detection limit. Calculate the
average of the results from three runs to determine compliance.
(xiii) If the THC level exceeds by 10 percent or more your site-
specific THC emissions limit, you must
(A) As soon as possible but no later than 30 days after the
exceedance, conduct an inspection and take corrective action to return
the THC CEMS measurements to within the established value; and
(B) Within 90 days of the exceedance or at the time of the 30 month
compliance test, whichever comes first, conduct another performance
test to determine compliance with the organic HAP limit and to verify
or re-establish your site-specific THC emissions limit.
(8) HCl Emissions Tests with SO2 Monitoring. If you
choose to monitor SO2 emissions using a CEMS to demonstrate
HCl compliance, follow the procedures in (b)(8)(i) through (ix) of this
section and in accordance with the requirements of Sec. 63.1350(l)(3).
You must establish an SO2 operating limit equal to the
average recorded during the HCl stack test. This operating limit will
apply only for demonstrating HCl compliance.
(i) Use Method 321 of appendix A to this part to determine
emissions of HCl. Each performance test must consist of three separate
runs under the conditions that exist when the affected source is
operating at the representative performance conditions in accordance
with Sec. 63.7(e). Each run must be conducted for at least one hour.
(ii) At the same time that you are conducting the performance test
for HCl, you must also determine a site-specific SO2
emissions limit by operating an SO2 CEMS in accordance with
the requirements of Sec. 63.1350(l). The duration of the performance
test must be three hours and the average SO2 concentration
(as calculated from the average output) during the 3-hour test must be
calculated. You must establish your SO2 operating limit and
determine compliance with it according to paragraphs (b)(8)(vii) and
(viii)of this section.
(iii) If your source has an in-line kiln/raw mill you must use the
fraction of time the raw mill is on and the fraction of time that the
raw mill is off and calculate this limit as a weighted average of the
SO2 levels measured during raw mill on and raw mill off
testing.
(iv) Your SO2 CEMS must be calibrated and operated
according to the requirements of Sec. 60.63(f).
(v) Your SO2 CEMS measurement scale must be capable of
reading SO2 concentrations consistent with the requirements
of Sec. 60.63(f), including mill on or mill off operation.
(vi) If your kiln has an inline kiln/raw mill, you must conduct
separate performance tests while the raw mill is operating (``mill
on'') and while the raw mill is not operating (``mill off''). Using the
fraction of time the raw mill is on and the fraction of time that the
raw mill is off, calculate this limit as a weighted average of the HCl
levels measured during raw mill on and raw mill off compliance testing
with Equation 17.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP19NO14.042
Where:
R = Operating limit as SO2, ppmvw.
y = Average SO2 CEMS value during mill on operations,
ppmvw.
t = Percentage of operating time with mill on, expressed as a
decimal.
x = Average SO2 CEMS value during mill off operations,
ppmvw.
t-1 = Percentage of operating time with mill off, expressed as a
decimal.
(vii) If the average of your three HCl compliance test runs is
below 75 percent of your HCl emission limit, you must calculate an
operating limit by establishing a relationship of SO2 CEMS
signal to your HCl concentration corrected to 7% O2 by using
the SO2 CEMS instrument zero, the average SO2
CEMS values corresponding to the three compliance test runs, and the
average HCl concentration from the HCl compliance test with the
procedures in (a)(1)(iii)(A) through (D) of this section.
(A) Determine your SO2 CEMS instrument zero output with
one of the following procedures.
(1) Zero point data for in-situ instruments should be obtained by
removing the instrument from the stack and monitoring ambient air on a
test bench.
(2) Zero point data for extractive instruments may be obtained by
removing the extractive probe from the stack and drawing in clean
ambient air.
(3) The zero point may also be established by performing probe-
flood introduction of high purity nitrogen or certified zero air free
of SO2.
(4) If none of the steps in paragraphs (a)(1)(iii)(A)(1) through
(3) of this section are possible, you must use a zero output value
provided by the manufacturer.
(B) Determine your SO2 CEMS instrument average ppm, and
the average of your corresponding three HCl compliance test runs, using
equation 18.

Where:
X1 = The SO2 CEMS data points for the three
runs constituting the performance test.
Y1 = The HCl emission concentration expressed as ppmv
corrected to 7% O2 for the three runs constituting the
performance test.
n = The number of data points.
(C) With your instrument zero expressed in ppmv, your three run
average SO2 CEMS expressed in ppmv, and your three run HCl
compliance test average in ppm corrected to 7% O2, determine
a relationship of ppm HCl corrected to 7% O2 per ppm
SO2 with Equation 19.

Where:
R = The relative HCl ppmv corrected to 7% O2 per ppm
SO2 for your SO2 CEMS.
Y1 = The three run average HCl concentration corrected to
7% O2.
X1 = The three run average ppm recorded by your
SO2 CEMS.
z = The instrument zero output ppm value.
(D) Determine your source specific 30-day rolling average operating
limit using ppm HCl corrected to 7% O2 per ppm
SO2 value from Equation 19 in Equation 20, below. This sets
your operating limit at the SO2 CEMS ppm value corresponding
to 75 percent of your emission limit.

Where:
Ol = The operating limit for your SO2 CEMS on
a 30-day rolling average, in ppmv.
L = Your source HCl emission limit expressed in ppmv corrected to 7%
O2.
z = Your instrument zero in ppmv, determined from (1)(i).
R = The relative oxygen corrected ppmv HCl per ppmv SO2,
for your SO2 CEMS, from Equation 19.
(viii) To determine continuous compliance with the SO2
operating limit, you must record the SO2 CEMS output data
for all periods when the process is operating and the SO2
CEMS is not out-of-control. You must demonstrate continuous compliance
by using all quality-assured hourly average data collected by the
SO2 CEMS for all operating hours to calculate the arithmetic
average operating parameter in units of the operating limit (ppmvw) on
a 30 operating day rolling average basis, updated at the end of each
new kiln operating day. Use Equation 18 to determine the 30 kiln
operating day average.

Where:
Hpvi = The hourly parameter value for hour i, ppmvw.
n = The number of valid hourly parameter values collected over 30
kiln operating days.
(ix) Use EPA Method 321 of appendix A to part 60 of this chapter to
determine HCl emissions. For each performance test, conduct at least
three separate runs under the conditions that exist when the affected
source is operating at the highest load or capacity level reasonably
expected to occur. If your source has an in-line kiln/raw mill you must
conduct three separate test runs with the raw mill on, and three
separate runs under the conditions that exist when the affected source
is operating at the highest load or capacity level reasonably expected
to occur with the mill off.
(x) If the SO2 level exceeds by 10 percent or more your
site-specific SO2 emissions limit, you must
(A) As soon as possible but no later than 30 days after the
exceedance, conduct an inspection and take corrective action to return
the SO2 CEMS measurements to within the established value.
and
(B) Within 90 days of the exceedance or at the time of the periodic
compliance test, whichever comes first, conduct another performance
test to determine compliance with the HCl limit and to verify or re-
establish your site-specific SO2 emissions limit.

Sec. 63.1350 Monitoring requirements.
(a) * * *
(2) [Reserved]
* * * * *
(i) * * *
(1) You must install, operate, and maintain a THC continuous
emission monitoring system in accordance with Performance Specification
8 or Performance Specification 8A of appendix B to part 60 of this
chapter and comply with all of the requirements for continuous
monitoring systems found in the general provisions, subpart A of this
part. The owner or operator must operate and maintain each CEMS
according to the quality assurance requirements in Procedure 1 of
appendix F in part 60 of this chapter.
(2) Performance tests on alkali bypass and coal mill stacks must be
conducted using Method 25A in appendix A to 40 CFR part 60 and repeated
every 30 months.
(j) Total organic HAP monitoring requirements. If you are complying
with the total organic HAP emissions limits, you must continuously
monitor THC according to paragraph (i)(1) and (2) or in accordance with
Performance Specification 8 or Performance Specification 8A of appendix
B to part 60 of this chapter and comply with all of the requirements
for continuous monitoring systems found in the general provisions,
subpart A of this part. You must operate and maintain each CEMS
according to the quality assurance requirements in Procedure 1 of
appendix F in part 60 of this chapter. In addition, your must follow
the monitoring requirements in paragraphs (m)(1) through (m)(4) of this
section. You must also develop an emissions monitoring plan in
accordance with paragraphs (p)(1) through (p)(4) of this section.
(k) * * *
(2) In order to quality assure data measured above the span value,
you must use one of the three options in paragraphs (k)(2)(i) through
(iii) of this section.
* * * * *
(ii) Quality assure any data above the span value by proving
instrument linearity beyond the span value established in paragraph
(k)(1) of this section using the following procedure. Conduct a weekly
``above span linearity'' calibration challenge of the monitoring system
using a reference gas with a certified value greater than your highest
expected hourly concentration. The ``above span'' reference gas must
meet the requirements of PS 12A, Section 7.1 and must be introduced to
the measurement system at the probe. Record and report the results of
this procedure as you would for a daily
[[Page 68838]]
calibration. The ``above span linearity'' challenge is successful if
the value measured by the Hg CEMS falls within 10 percent of the
certified value of the reference gas. If the value measured by the Hg
CEMS during the above span linearity challenge exceeds 10 percent of
the certified value of the reference gas, the monitoring system must be
evaluated and repaired and a new ``above span linearity'' challenge met
before returning the Hg CEMS to service, or data above span from the Hg
CEMS must be quality assured using the procedure established in
(k)(2)(iii).
(iii) Quality assure any data above the span value established in
paragraph (k)(1) of this section using the following procedure. Any
time two consecutive one-hour average measured concentration of Hg
exceeds the span value you must, within 24 hours before or after,
introduce a higher, ``above span'' Hg reference gas standard to the Hg
CEMS. The ``above span'' reference gas must meet the requirements of PS
12A, Section 7.1, must target a concentration level between 50 and 150
percent of the highest expected hourly concentration measured during
the period of measurements above span, and must be introduced at the
probe. Record and report the results of this procedure as you would for
a daily calibration. The ``above span'' calibration is successful if
the value measured by the Hg CEMS is within 20 percent of the certified
value of the reference gas. If the value measured by the Hg CEMS
exceeds 20 percent of the certified value of the reference gas, then
you must normalize the one-hour average stack gas values measured above
the span during the 24-hour period preceding or following the ``above
span'' calibration for reporting based on the Hg CEMS response to the
reference gas as shown in equation 22:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP19NO14.039
Only one `above span' calibration is needed per 24 hour period.
(iv) If mercury emissions from the coal mill and alkali bypass are
below the method detection limit for two consecutive annual performance
tests, you may reduce the frequency of the performance tests of coal
mills and alkali bypasses to once every 30 months. If the measured
mercury concentration exceeds the method detection limit, you must
revert to testing annually until two consecutive annual tests are below
the method detection limit.
* * * * *
(l) HCl Monitoring Requirements. If you are subject to an emissions
limitation on HCl emissions in Sec. 63.1343, you must monitor HCl
emissions continuously according to paragraph (l)(1) or (2) and
paragraphs (m)(1) through (4) of this section or, if your kiln is
controlled using a wet or dry scrubber or tray tower, you alternatively
may parametrically monitor SO2 emissions continuously
according to paragraph (l)(3) of this section. You must also develop an
emissions monitoring plan in accordance with paragraphs (p)(1) through
(4) of this section.
(1) If you monitor compliance with the HCl emissions limit by
operating an HCl CEMS, you must do so in accordance with Performance
Specification 15 (PS 15) of appendix B to part 60 of this chapter, or,
upon promulgation, in accordance with any other performance
specification for HCl CEMS in appendix B to part 60 of this chapter.
You must operate, maintain, and quality assure a HCl CEMS installed and
certified under PS 15 according to the quality assurance requirements
in Procedure 1 of appendix F to part 60 of this chapter except that the
Relative Accuracy Test Audit requirements of Procedure 1 must be
replaced with the validation requirements and criteria of sections
11.1.1 and 12.0 of PS 15. If you install and operate an HCl CEMS in
accordance with any other performance specification for HCl CEMS in
appendix B to part 60 of this chapter, you must operate, maintain and
quality assure the HCl CEMS using the procedure of appendix F to part
60 of this chapter applicable to the performance specification. You
must use Method 321 of appendix A to part 63 of this chapter as the
reference test method for conducting relative accuracy testing. The
span value and calibration requirements in paragraphs (l)(1)(i) and
(ii) of this section apply to HCl CEMS other than those installed and
certified under PS 15.
(i) You must use a measurement span value for any HCl CEMS of 0-10
ppmvw. The HCl CEMS data recorder output range must include the full
range of expected HCl concentration values which would include those
expected during ``mill off'' conditions. The corresponding data
recorder range shall be documented in the site-specific monitoring plan
and associated records.
(ii) In order to quality assure data measured above the span value,
you must use one of the three options in paragraphs (l)(1)(ii)(A)
through (C) of this section.
(A) Include a second span that encompasses the HCl emission
concentrations expected to be encountered during ``mill off''
conditions. This second span may be rounded to a multiple of 5 [mu]g/
m\3\ of total HCl. The requirements of the appropriate HCl monitor
performance specification shall be followed for this second span with
the exception that a RATA with the mill off is not required.
(B) Quality assure any data above the span value by proving
instrument linearity beyond the span value established in paragraph
(I)(1)(i) of this section using the following procedure. Conduct a
weekly ``above span linearity'' calibration challenge of the monitoring
system using a reference gas with a certified value greater than your
highest expected hourly concentration. The ``above span'' reference gas
must meet the requirements of the applicable performance specification
and must be introduced to the measurement system at the probe. Record
and report the results of this procedure as you would for a daily
calibration. The ``above span linearity'' challenge is successful if
the value measured by the HCl CEMS falls within 10 percent of the
certified value of the reference gas. If the value measured by the HCl
CEMS during the above span linearity challenge exceeds 10 percent of
the certified value of the reference gas, the monitoring system must be
evaluated and repaired and a new ``above span linearity'' challenge met
before returning the HCl CEMS to service, or data above span from the
HCl CEMS must be quality assured using the procedure established in
(I)(1)(C).
(C) Quality assure any data above the span value established in
paragraph (1)(1)(i) of this section using the following procedure. Any
time the average measured concentration of HCl
[[Page 68839]]
exceeds or is expected to exceed the span value for greater than two
hours you must, within a period 24 hours before or after the `above
span' period, introduce a higher, `above span' HCl reference gas
standard to the HCl CEMS. The `above span' reference gas must meet the
requirements of the applicable performance specification and target a
concentration level between 50 and 100 percent of the highest expected
hourly concentration measured during the period of measurements above
span, and must be introduced at the probe. Record and report the
results of this procedure as you would for a daily calibration. The
`above span' calibration is successful if the value measured by the HCl
CEMS is within 20 percent of the certified value of the reference gas.
If the value measured by the HCl CEMS is not within 20 percent of the
certified value of the reference gas, then you must normalize the stack
gas values measured above span as described in paragraph (l)(1)(ii)(D)
below. If the `above span' calibration is conducted during the period
when measured emissions are above span and there is a failure to
collect the required minimum number of data points in an hour due to
the calibration duration, then you must determine the emissions average
for that missed hour as the average of hourly averages for the hour
preceding the missed hour and the hour following the missed hour.
(D) In the event that the `above span' calibration is not
successful (i.e., the HCl CEMS measured value is not within 20 percent
of the certified value of the reference gas), then you must normalize
the one-hour average stack gas values measured above the span during
the 24-hour period preceding or following the `above span' calibration
for reporting based on the HCl CEMS response to the reference gas as
shown in Equation 23:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP19NO14.040
Only one `above span' calibration is needed per 24-hour period.
(2) Install, operate, and maintain a CMS to monitor wet scrubber or
tray tower parameters, as specified in paragraphs (m)(5) and (7) of
this section, and dry scrubber, as specified in paragraph (m)(9) of
this section.
(3) If the source is equipped with a wet or dry scrubber or tray
tower, and you choose to monitor SO2 emissions, monitor
SO2 emissions continuously according to the requirements of
Sec. 60.63(e) through (f) of part 60 subpart F of this chapter. If
SO2 levels increase above the 30-day rolling average
SO2 operating limit established during your performance
test, you must:
(i) As soon as possible but no later than 48 hours after you exceed
the established SO2 value conduct an inspection and take
corrective action to return the SO2 emissions to within the
operating limit; and
(ii) Within 60 days of the exceedance or at the time of the next
compliance test, whichever comes first, conduct an HCl emissions
compliance test to determine compliance with the HCl emissions limit
and to verify or re-establish the SO2 CEMS operating limit.
* * * * *
(n) Continuous Flow Rate Monitoring System. You must install,
operate, calibrate, and maintain instruments, according to the
requirements in paragraphs (n)(1) through (10) of this section, for
continuously measuring and recording the stack gas flow rate to allow
determination of the pollutant mass emissions rate to the atmosphere
from sources subject to an emissions limitation that has a pounds per
ton of clinker unit and that is required to be monitored by a CEMS.
(1) You must install each sensor of the flow rate monitoring system
in a location that provides representative measurement of the exhaust
gas flow rate at the sampling location of the mercury CEMS, taking into
account the manufacturer's recommendations. The flow rate sensor is
that portion of the system that senses the volumetric flow rate and
generates an output proportional to that flow rate.
* * * * *
(o) Alternate monitoring requirements approval. You may submit an
application to the Administrator for approval of alternate monitoring
requirements to demonstrate compliance with the emission standards of
this subpart subject to the provisions of paragraphs (o)(1) through (6)
of this section.
* * * * *
(3) You must submit the application for approval of alternate
monitoring requirements no later than the notification of performance
test. The application must contain the information specified in
paragraphs (o)(3)(i) through (iii) of this section:
