Standards of Performance for New
Stationary Sources and Emission

Environmental Protection
Agency.
ACTION: Proposed rule.
AGENCY:
On February 7, 2013, the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
promulgated its final response to
petitions for reconsideration of the final
new source performance standards
(NSPS) and emission guidelines (EG) for
commercial and industrial solid waste
incineration (CISWI) units that were
promulgated on March 21, 2011.
Following promulgation of the February
2013 final action, the Administrator
received petitions for reconsideration
that identified issues that petitioners
maintain require additional
reconsideration and/or warrant further
opportunity for public comment. In this
action, the EPA is granting
reconsideration on four provisions of
the February 2013 final NSPS and EG
for CISWI units. In addition, the EPA
identified regulatory provisions that
require clarification and editorial
correction to address inconsistencies
and errors in the final rules. The
proposed amendments provide
additional clarity and improve the
implementation of the February 2013
final CISWI standards, but do not have
any environmental, energy or economic
impacts associated with the proposed
action.
DATES: Comments. Comments must be
received on or before March 9, 2015, or
30 days after date of public hearing, if
later.
Public Hearing. If anyone contacts us
requesting to speak at a public hearing
by January 26, 2015, a public hearing

A. Background Information
On March 21, 2011, the EPA
promulgated revised NSPS and EG for
CISWI units (i.e., solid waste
incineration units located at commercial
or industrial facilities). Following that
action, the Administrator received
petitions for reconsideration that
identified certain issues that warranted
further opportunity for public comment.
In response to the petitions, the EPA
reconsidered and requested comment on
several provisions of the February 2011
final NSPS and EG for commercial and
industrial solid waste incineration
units. The EPA published the proposed
revisions to the NSPS and EG for
commercial and industrial solid waste
units on December 23, 2011 (76 FR
80452).
On February 7, 2013, the EPA
promulgated the final reconsidered
NSPS and EG for CISWI units (78 FR
9112). The final rule made some
revisions to the December 2011
proposed reconsideration rule in
response to comments and additional
information received. Following that
action, the EPA again received petitions
for reconsideration. These petitions
stated certain provisions should be
reconsidered and that the public lacked
sufficient opportunity to comment on
some of the provisions contained in the
final 2013 CISWI rule. In this action, the
EPA is reconsidering and requesting
comment on four provisions of the 2013
final NSPS and EG for CISWI units.
Additionally, the EPA is proposing
clarifying changes and corrections to the
final rule, some of which are raised in
petitions for reconsideration of the 2013
CISWI rule. The EPA is also proposing
to amend the final rule by removing the
affirmative defense provision. The EPA
continues to evaluate the remaining
issues raised in the petitions for
reconsideration. For a more detailed
background and additional information
on how this rule is related to other CAA
combustion rules issued under section
112 and the Resource Conservation and
Recovery Act (RCRA) definition of solid
waste, refer to prior notices (76 FR
15704, 78 FR 9112).
B. Actions We Are Taking
In this notice, we are granting
reconsideration of, and requesting
comment on, certain issues raised by
Petitioners in their petitions for
reconsideration on the 2013 CISWI rule.
These provisions are: (1) Definition of
‘‘CEMS data during startup and
shutdown periods;’’ (2) particulate
matter (PM) limit for the waste-burning
kiln subcategory; (3) fuel variability
PO 00000
Frm 00004
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4702
factor (FVF) for coal-burning energy
recovery units; and (4) the definition of
kiln. Additionally, the EPA proposes to
clarify certain applicability provisions
relating to incinerator units and air
curtain incinerator units subject to the
2000 CISWI NSPS and to correct various
typographical errors identified in the
rule as published in the Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR). The EPA is also
proposing to amend the final rule by
removing the affirmative defense
provision. Sections D and F of this
preamble summarize these issues and
present the proposed revisions
necessary to address each issue.
We are seeking public comment only
on the issues specifically identified in
this action. We will not respond to any
comments addressing other aspects of
the 2013 CISWI final rule or any other
rulemakings.
C. Discussion of Issues for
Reconsideration
This section of the preamble contains
the EPA’s basis for reconsidering the
provisions we identify in this proposed
rule. We solicit comment on the four
issues discussed in this section and the
proposed technical corrections and
clarifications discussed in Section D of
this preamble.
1. Definition of ‘‘CEMS Data During
Startup and Shutdown Periods’’
Today’s proposal requests comments
on the definition of ‘‘CEMS data during
startup and shutdown’’ contained in the
February 2013 final rule. As
background, the 2011 CISWI final rule
contained continuous emissions
monitoring system (CEMS) monitoring
requirements for carbon monoxide (CO)
from new sources, including a provision
that mandated a 7 percent oxygen
correction. After the 2011 CISWI final
rule was published, petitioners
indicated that correcting CO
concentration measurements to 7
percent oxygen is problematic during
startup and shutdown periods when the
flue gas oxygen content approaches the
oxygen content of ambient air,
especially with regard to the energy
recovery unit (ERU) subcategory.
Oxygen contents relatively close to
ambient air are often maintained during
combustion unit startup and shutdown
in order to safely operate the unit, but,
as a result, the corrected CO values
during these periods are artificially
inflated due to the oxygen correction
calculation. Petitioners presented data
that demonstrated how these inflated
data points drive the 30-day rolling
average values beyond the emission
limit.
E:\FR\FM\21JAP2.SGM
21JAP2
asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS
Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 13 / Wednesday, January 21, 2015 / Proposed Rules
To resolve this issue, the EPA
determined that the 7 percent oxygen
correction would not be required for
CEMS data collected during periods of
startup and shutdown. Based on data
submitted for coal-burning ERUs, a new
definition of ‘‘CEMS data during startup
and shutdown’’ was proposed in the
December 2011 reconsideration
proposal that referred to the data
collected during the first 4 hours of
operation of an energy recovery unit
starting up from a cold start and the
hour of operation following the
cessation of waste material being fed to
the unit during shutdown.
The EPA received comments on the
proposed definition expressing concern
that the time limits included in the
definition may not accurately represent
all CISWI unit types. Further,
commenters argued that the same logic
should apply for all CEMS-measured
emission limits, not just CO. They
explained that, even though CEMS is a
compliance alternative rather than a
requirement for most CISWI standards,
other air regulations and permit
requirements may require the units to
continue to monitor emissions using
CEMS data. Therefore, in the February
2013 CISWI final rule, the definition
was revised to include all pollutants
measured with a CEMS, expanded to
include a separate definition for wasteburning kilns, and the 4-hour and 1hour time limits in the definition were
removed. The EPA defined the end of
the startup period and the beginning of
the shutdown period as the introduction
and cessation of waste fed to the unit,
respectively. Information available for
the best performing units demonstrates
their typical operation and supports the
idea that startup and shutdown periods
be defined by the introduction and
cessation of waste being fed to the units.
Furthermore, for the incinerator, small
remote incinerator, and the ERU
subcategories, the startup period was
limited to 48 hours and the shutdown
period limited to 24 hours.
After the February 2013 CISWI final
rule was promulgated, the EPA received
petitions stating that stakeholders did
not have the opportunity to comment on
the final definition, especially the
clause that defines the beginning and
ending of these periods as the
introduction and cessation, respectively,
of waste material being fed to the
combustor. Petitioners argued that, with
the inclusion of the provision ending
startup when waste is added to the unit,
the end of startup will occur too early
because units that combust waste often
introduce waste before steady state
operations to transition from startup
fuel to waste and other primary fuel
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:10 Jan 20, 2015
Jkt 235001
combustion. For this reason, the
petitioners argued that the EPA should
extend the startup period duration to
include the period of time when sources
are transitioning to waste combustion
from the startup fuel. We are taking
comment on whether the definition
should be revised to extend the startup
period to include this transitional
period of combustor operation. In
addition, the EPA requests that
commenters suggest provisions that
would ensure adequate application of
the CEMS data during startup and
shutdown definition, such as maximum
allowable time limits after introduction
of waste, if the agency were to allow
solid waste combustion during startup.
2. PM Limit for the Waste-burning Kiln
Subcategory
The February 2013 CISWI final rule
included PM limits for new and existing
waste-burning kilns in the NSPS and
EG, respectively. Petitioners have
requested reconsideration of these
emission limits, stating that they did not
have the opportunity to review and
comment on the data used to calculate
the 2013 emission limits.
As background, the March 2011
CISWI final rule promulgated PM
emissions limits of 6.2 milligrams per
dry standard cubic meter (mg/dscm) for
existing units, and 2.5 mg/dscm for new
units, both corrected to 7 percent
oxygen. In an action parallel to the
March 21, 2011, final CISWI rule, the
EPA promulgated a final rule that
identifies the standards and procedures
for identifying whether non-hazardous
secondary materials (NHSM) are or are
not solid waste when used as fuels or
ingredients in combustion units. The
EPA defines the NHSM that are solid
waste under RCRA in the final
‘‘Identification of Non-Hazardous
Secondary Materials That Are Solid
Waste’’ rulemaking. The RCRA
definition of solid waste is integral in
defining the CISWI source category.
Commercial and industrial units that
combust solid waste are subject to
standards issued pursuant to CAA
section 129, rather than to standards
issued pursuant to CAA section 112 that
would otherwise be applicable to such
units (e.g., boilers, process heaters and
cement kilns). Cement kilns combusting
solid waste are waste-burning kilns
subject to CISWI, not the otherwise
applicable national emission standards
for hazardous air pollutants (NESHAP).
Following promulgation of the 2011
CISWI rule, the EPA again analyzed the
materials being combusted in the entire
national inventory of Portland cement
kilns in light of the revisions to the
NHSM rule, and made revisions to the
PO 00000
Frm 00005
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4702
3021
CISWI waste-burning kiln inventory.
When kilns were added to the inventory
and their emissions data considered, the
resulting NSPS and EG PM emission
limits proposed in the December 2011
reconsideration were less stringent than
those established in the March 2011
CISWI final rule.
Following the December 2011
reconsideration proposal, the EPA
learned that one of the kilns in the
CISWI inventory was no longer burning
waste, and another kiln that was not
thought to be burning waste materials
was doing so. The CISWI waste-burning
kiln inventory was revised during the
period between proposal and final to
reflect these changes, and the database
updated to include emissions data for
the new unit, as well as some additional
test reports obtained for units within the
inventory. The EPA calculated the
MACT floors after making the
appropriate revisions to the inventory
and the new NSPS and EG PM emission
limits were more stringent than those
proposed in the December 2011
reconsideration proposal. Table 1,
below, tracks the progression of the
waste-burning kiln PM limits from the
March 2011 final rule through the
February 2013 final rule.
Throughout the CISWI rulemaking
process from March 2011 through
February 2013, the EPA used the same
calculation methodology (i.e., the upper
prediction limit calculated from a
population of individual test runs) to
establish the emission limits for wasteburning kilns. However, the data set
used in these calculations has changed
and grown over this period of time as
the agency has revised the CISWI
inventory based on information
submitted to the agency by the regulated
community. As a result, a petitioner has
suggested that the current PM emission
data set for waste-burning kilns is robust
enough to warrant using 3-run emission
test averages as the data population
rather than the individual test runs.
According to the commenter, using this
approach to calculate emission limits
would result in PM emission limits that
are different than those of the February
2013 CISWI final rule. The calculated
PM emission limits using the test
averages are also presented in Table 1
for comparison.
In the context of MACT analyses,
emission test averages or individual test
run data can be used to determine
emissions variability of best performers.
We typically use individual test runs,
but for categories with data from 15 or
more sources, which would provide at
least 45 test runs, we may choose to use
test averages. In these larger datasets,
the use of test averages or test runs is

expected to make very little difference
in the calculated level of the standard.
In today’s proposal, the EPA is soliciting
comment on the data set used in the
February 2013 final rule, as well as
whether this data set now warrants a
different calculation approach due to its
size or other factors. See the memoranda
titled ‘‘Potential Emission Limits
Calculation Analyses for Waste-burning
Kilns and Coal ERUs,’’ ‘‘Approach for
Applying the Upper Prediction Limit to
Limited Datasets,’’ and ‘‘Use of the
Upper Prediction Limit for Calculating
MACT Floors’’ in the CISWI docket for

3. FVF for Coal-burning Energy
Recovery Units
In the preamble to the 2013 final
CISWI rule, we explained the
methodology used to establish the final
emission limits, which relied almost
exclusively on direct emissions
measurements. A petitioner expressed
concern that the derivation of the CISWI
limits for the coal-fired ERU subcategory
should take into account the variable
constituent levels in coal and urged the
EPA to incorporate fuel variability into
the emission limit calculations for coalfired ERUs as was done in the Boiler
MACT for coal-fired boilers.
The petitioner contended that the
EPA’s emissions dataset for coal ERUs is
very limited for the fuel-dependent
pollutants hydrogen chloride (HCl), lead
(Pb), cadmium (Cd), mercury (Hg), and
sulfur dioxide (SO2), and that emission
standards based on stack test and CEMS
data alone are too stringent to be met
reliably because of the inherent
variability of the coal. Specifically, they
noted that emission standards were
based solely on one stack test for Cd, Pb
and HCl, two stack tests for Hg and 7
days of CEMS data for SO2, emphasizing
the short-term nature of these data. They
argued that coal has variable levels of
each of these contaminants, referencing
historical fuel data previously submitted
to the agency during the public
comment period.
Further, the petitioner expressed their
concern that EPA based its decision in
the 2013 final rule on inaccurate
assumptions about the three Eastman
boilers in the coal-fired ERU
subcategory. This concern stemmed
from an error in the EPA’s response to
Eastman’s previous comments regarding
the proposal, which mistakenly stated
that for some pollutants, the best
performers were not Eastman units.
While this statement was true at the
time of proposal, two significant
changes were made regarding the coal-

Proposed Rule

Jkt 235001
burning ERU subcategory in finalizing
the 2013 final rule: (1) The EPA
determined it would be appropriate to
subcategorize solid fuel ERUs into coalburning and biomass-burning for HCl
and Hg as well as the other pollutants;
and (2) the only other facility having
emissions data for a coal-burning ERU
confirmed that the secondary materials
combusted in their unit met the
legitimacy criteria for a fuel, and
therefore the unit was removed from the
CISWI inventory. With these changes
implemented, the top performer for
every pollutant became one of the three
Eastman units.
For the 2013 final rule, the EPA’s
rationale for rejecting comments calling
for the incorporation of a FVF in the
emission limit calculations for coalburning ERUs was based on the
following points: (1) The
subcategorization of biomass-burning
and coal-burning ERUs for all nine
pollutants ensures that the limits
account for differences in units
designed to burn coal or biomass; (2) the
EPA has fuel variability data for only
one facility within the coal-fired ERU
subcategory, so the resulting FVF may
not be reflective of the materials being
combusted by other sources within the
subcategory; and, (3) the EPA’s analyses
indicated that variability was
adequately accounted for because the
best performing sources in the coal-fired
ERU (ERU solids (coal)) subcategory are
able to meet the final emission limits.
The petitioner objected to the EPA’s
assertion that the best performers met
all of the final emission limits,
emphasizing that units may not be able
to consistently meet the standards.
While they acknowledged that limits set
for Cd, Pb and Hg may already account
for contaminant variability (because Pb
and Hg are controlled by electrostatic
precipitators (ESPs) and Cd is rarely
detected in their coal supplies), they
argue that emissions of SO2 and HCl
PO 00000
Frm 00006
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4702
from the best performers are not
controlled and are entirely dependent
on sulfur and chlorine content of the
fuel. This same petitioner also
contended that the data the EPA used to
establish the final rule nitrogen oxide
(NOX) emission limit for the bestperforming unit in the coal-fired ERU
subcategory does not reflect this unit’s
actual performance accurately, since it
reflects only periods of waste
combustion in the analysis. The
petitioner noted that this unit, as well
as the other coal-fired ERUs at this
facility, operate for extended periods of
time in a non-waste burning mode. As
a remedy, the petitioner suggested that
the EPA use data from both wasteburning and non-waste burning periods
for the best-performing unit to establish
maximum achievable control
technology (MACT) floor emission
limits, stating that these will more
accurately reflect actual operating
conditions for this unit. The petitioner
subsequently provided the EPA
additional longer-term NOX CEMS data
for the best-performing unit (reflecting
coal-only and waste combustion periods
of operation) which could be used to
provide a larger data set on which to
base the NOX emission limit
calculations.
We are, therefore, requesting
comments and supporting data
regarding the need to establish a FVF for
the ERU solids (coal) subcategory,
including stack test data from coal-only
periods of operation in our emission
limit calculations, and whether the EPA
should re-evaluate the NOX emission
limit by using the additional CEMS data
provided for the best performing unit.
Table 2 presents a comparison of the
2013 final rule emission limits for
existing coal ERUs and what the
emission limit calculation results are
when all data available (i.e., waste and
coal-only modes of operation), FVF
calculation techniques and the

additional CEMS data provided by the
petitioner are used in conjunction to
calculate the emission limits. See the
memorandum, ‘‘Potential Emission

4. Definition of Kiln
In today’s rule, the EPA is also
revising the definition of ‘‘kiln’’ and
adding definitions of ‘‘in-line raw mill’’
and ‘‘in-line coal mill’’ to further clarify
the boundaries of the waste-burning kiln
and to remain consistent with similar
revisions made in the Portland Cement
NESHAP. Since the in-line raw mill and
in-line coal mill are part of the kiln, the
kiln emission limits also apply to the
exhaust of the in-line raw mill and inline coal mill. For more background on
this issue, the EPA discussed at length
in the preamble to the proposed
Portland Cement NESHAP a potential
regulatory regime to cover situations
where a portion of the kiln exhaust is
ducted to the coal mill. See 77 FR
42383–85; see also the regulatory text at
77 FR 42398, 42402–06, 42408–09.
For waste-burning kilns, we have
adopted language in the definition of
‘‘kiln’’ to make it consistent with that of
the Portland Cement NESHAP. The
terms ‘‘in-line raw mill’’ and ‘‘in-line
coal mill’’ are included in this
definition, and, therefore, are also being
added to the definitions within the
CISWI rule.
In addition to the definitional
amendments, we are also proposing a
compliance demonstration and on-going
monitoring method for waste-burning
kilns that combine emission streams
from the in-line raw mill and in-line
coal mill and exhaust through multiple
stacks. This approach allows sources to
measure pollutant concentrations and
flows from each of the stacks (i.e., kiln,
alkali bypass, and in-line coal mill, as
applicable) and calculate a flowweighted average kiln stack
concentration that must be met in order
to be in compliance with the CISWI
waste-burning kiln emission limits.
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:10 Jan 20, 2015
Jkt 235001
These provisions are modeled upon
similar provisions and equations found
in the Portland Cement NESHAP, and
should streamline compliance
demonstrations for waste-burning kilns
that combine streams prior to discharge
to the atmosphere through one or more
stacks. These proposed calculation
method and measurement location
options are found in 40 CFR 60.2145
and 40 CFR 60.2710. We request
comments on these definitional and
calculation method changes to
demonstrating compliance for wasteburning kilns that combine streams
prior to discharge to the atmosphere
through one or more stacks.
D. Technical Corrections and
Clarifications
In today’s rule, we are also proposing
some changes to the final rule to correct
minor typographical errors and clarify
some portions that may have been
unclear. This section of the preamble
summarizes these corrections and
clarifications.
1. 2000 CISWI New Source
Applicability Clarification for
Incinerators and Air Curtain
Incinerators
Following promulgation of the
February 2013 CISWI final rule, the EPA
received questions regarding the
continued applicability of the 2000
CISWI NSPS for units that are subject to
the 2000 CISWI NSPS as they are
transitioned from the 2000 NSPS to the
February 2013 EG with which they will
eventually be required to comply. The
2000 CISWI NSPS are the same as the
2000 CISWI EG and limited in
applicability to the incinerator
subcategory and air curtain incinerators
so only these types of CISWI units being
PO 00000
Frm 00007
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4702
regulated in the February 2013 CISWI
final rules are affected by the
applicability issue. The EPA intended,
consistent with the statute and our
stated intent (see 76 FR 15711, March
21, 2011), to continue to regulate these
units as ‘‘new’’ sources under the 2000
NSPS, and then regulate them as
‘‘existing’’ sources under the more
stringent EG once these units were
covered under an approved state plan or
federal plan that implements the
February 2013 CISWI final EG. The
language in the February 7, 2013 NSPS
at 40 CFR 60.2105 and the title of Table
1 to 40 CFR part 60, subpart CCCC make
the EPA’s intent to do so evident.
However, the applicability section in 40
CFR 60.2015 omitted the applicability
provisions for incinerators and air
curtain incinerators that are subject to
the 2000 CISWI NSPS. In today’s
proposal, the EPA is proposing
additional language in 40 CFR
60.2015(a) and 40 CFR 60.2105(b) that
clarifies that these incinerators and air
curtain incinerators remain ‘‘new’’ units
regulated under the 2000 NSPS until
such time that an approved state plan or
federal plan implements the February
2013 EG for those unit, at which time
such units will be subject to the 2013
EG to the extent those limits are more
stringent than the 2000 CISWI NSPS
limits.
2. Typographical Errors and Corrections
The following items are typographical
errors in the final rule that we are
proposing to correct in today’s proposal:
• References in § 60.2020(e),
§ 60.2020(f), § 60.2555(e), and

3. Clarifications
Since publication of the February 7,
2013 final CISWI rule, the EPA has
received some stakeholder questions
and requests for clarification on certain
rule provisions. We are not proposing
regulatory language changes for the
following items, but are providing some
clarification to these questions:
• Mass balance as operating limits for
units without certain control devices—
A stakeholder has asked for clarification
on whether a mass balance could be
used as an operating parameter, and
whether this must be measured as a 30day rolling average instead of taking a
monthly sample. Furthermore, the
stakeholder also asked whether the
material balance allows them to waive
annual stack testing. The EPA disagrees
that mass balance operating parameters
replace annual stack testing. Stack
testing and operating parameters work
in tandem to ensure ongoing
compliance with the standards. We do,
however, accept that mass balance
could be an allowable operating
parameter in cases where no control
device is needed to meet the pollutant’s
specific emission limit applicable to the
unit. We also point out that any source
may request a different averaging time
that is appropriate for their source and
operating parameter as provided for in
40 CFR 60.2115.
• Clarification on who the ‘‘EPA
Administrator’’ is and who to contact
for requests for averaging times,
qualifying facility notifications, etc. We
have received questions on how to
contact the Administrator to submit
notifications, reports and requests. The
contact information is given in the
General Provisions, under 40 CFR 60.4,
and has addresses listed by EPA
Regional Offices.
E. Environmental, Energy and Economic
Impacts
Today’s action requests comment on
some provisions and makes technical
and clarifying corrections, but does not
propose substantive changes to the
February 7, 2013, final CISWI rule (78
FR 9112). As such, there are no
environmental, energy or economic
impacts associated with today’s
proposed action. The impacts associated
with the CISWI rule were discussed in
detail in the February 7, 2013, final
CISWI rule document.

F. Affirmative Defense for Violation of
Emission Standards During Malfunction
In several prior CAA section 112 and
CAA section 129 rules, including this
rule, the EPA included an affirmative
defense to civil penalties for violations
caused by malfunctions in an effort to
create a system that incorporates some
flexibility, recognizing that there is a
tension, inherent in many types of air
regulation, to ensure adequate
compliance while simultaneously
recognizing that despite the most
diligent of efforts, emission standards
may be violated under circumstances
entirely beyond the control of the
source. Although the EPA recognized
that its case-by-case enforcement
discretion provides sufficient flexibility
in these circumstances, it included the
affirmative defense to provide a more
formalized approach and more
regulatory clarity. See Weyerhaeuser Co.
v. Costle, 590 F.2d 1011, 1057–58 (D.C.
Cir. 1978) (holding that an informal
case-by-case enforcement discretion
approach is adequate); but see Marathon
Oil Co. v. EPA, 564 F.2d 1253, 1272–73
(9th Cir. 1977) (requiring a more
formalized approach to consideration of
‘‘upsets beyond the control of the permit
holder.’’). Under the EPA’s regulatory
affirmative defense provisions, if a
source could demonstrate in a judicial
or administrative proceeding that it had
met the requirements of the affirmative
defense in the regulation, civil penalties
would not be assessed. Recently, the
United States Court of Appeals for the
District of Columbia Circuit vacated an
affirmative defense in one of the EPA’s
CAA section 112 regulations. NRDC v.
EPA, 749 F.3d 1055 (D.C. Cir., 2014)
(vacating affirmative defense provisions
in CAA section 112 rule establishing
emission standards for Portland cement
kilns). 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.’’’ See NRDC, 2014 U.S.
App. LEXIS 7281 at *21 (‘‘[U]nder this
statute, deciding whether penalties are
‘appropriate’ . . . is a job for the courts,
not EPA.’’). In light of NRDC, the EPA
is proposing to remove the regulatory
affirmative defense provision in the
current rule.
In the event that a source fails to
comply with the applicable CAA section
129 standards as a result of a
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:10 Jan 20, 2015
Jkt 235001
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 129
standard was, in fact, ‘‘sudden,
infrequent, not reasonably preventable’’
and was not instead ‘‘caused in part by
poor maintenance or careless
operation.’’ 40 CFR 60.2 (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. Cf.
NRDC at 1064 (arguments that
violations were caused by unavoidable
technology failure can be made to the
courts in future civil cases when the
issue arises). Similarly, the presiding
officer in an administrative proceeding
can consider any defense raised and
determine whether administrative
penalties are appropriate.
II 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 and was therefore not
submitted to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) for review.
B. Paperwork Reduction Act
This action does not impose an
information collection burden under the
PRA. This action is believed to result in
no changes to the information collection
requirements of the February 2013 final
CISWI rule, so that the information
collection estimate of project cost and
hour burden from the final CISWI rule
have not been revised. However, the
Office of Managment and Budget (OMB)
has previously approved the
information collection activities
contained in the existing regulations (40
CFR part 60, subparts CCCC and DDDD)
under the provisions of the Paperwork
Reduction Act (PRA), 44 U.S.C. 3501, et
seq., and EPA Information Collection
Request (ICR) number 2384.05 for
subpart CCCC, 40 CFR part 60 and EPA

C. Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA)
generally requires an agency to prepare
a regulatory flexibility analysis of any
rule subject to notice and comment
rulemaking requirements under the

any other statute unless the agency
certifies that the rule will not have a
significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities.
(SISNOSE). 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 that 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.
In making this determination, the
impact of concern is any significant
adverse economic impact on small
entities. An agency may certify that a
rule will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities if the rule
relieves regulatory burden, has no net
burden or otherwise has a positive
economic effect on the small entities
subject to the rule. This proposed rule
will not impose any new requirements
on any entities because it does not
impose any additional regulatory
requirements relative to those specified
in the February 2013 final CISWI rule.
The February 2013 final CISWI rule was
certified as not having a significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities. We have
therefore concluded that this action will
have no net regulatory burden for all
directly regulated small entities.
D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
This action does not contain any
unfunded mandate as described in
UMRA, 2 U.S.C. 1531–1538, and does
not significantly or uniquely affect small
governments. This rule proposes
amendments to the February 2013 final
CISWI rule provisions, but they are
mainly clarifications to existing rule

language to aid in implementation, or
are being made to maintain consistency
with other, more recent, regulatory
actions. Therefore, the action imposes
no enforceable duty on any state, local
or tribal governments or the private
sector. Therefore, this rule is not subject
to the requirements of sections 202 or
205 of UMRA.
This action seeks comment on
specific aspects of the final rule for
CISWI units and proposes minor
changes to the rule to correct and clarify
implementation issues raised by
stakeholders.
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.
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). The EPA is not aware of any
CISWI in Indian country or owned or
operated by Indian tribal governments.
The CISWI aspects of this rule may,
however, invoke minor indirect tribal
implications to the extent that entities
generating solid wastes on tribal lands
could be affected. 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 as applying to those regulatory
actions that concern environmental
health or safety risks that the EPA has
reason to believe may
disproportionately affect children, per
the definition of ‘‘covered regulatory
action’’ in section 2–202 of the
Executive Order. This action is not
subject to Executive Order 13045
because it does not concern an
environmental health risk or safety risk.

J. Executive Order 12898: Federal
Actions To Address Environmental
Justice in Minority Populations and
Low-Income Populations
The EPA believes the human health or
environmental risk addressed by this
action will not have potential
disproportionately high and adverse
human health or environmental effects
on minority, low-income or indigenous
populations because it does not affect
the level of protection provided to
human health or the environment. The
proposed corrections do not relax the
control measures on sources regulated
by the February 2013 final CISWI rule,
and, therefore, will not cause emissions
increases from these sources. The
February 2013 final CISWI rule will
reduce emissions of all the listed toxics
emitted from this source, thereby
helping to further ensure against any
disproportionately high and adverse
human health or environmental effects
on minority or low-income populations.

any other environmental or energy
impacts they might have.
§ 60.2050
Operator Training and Qualification
What is a siting analysis?
(a) The siting analysis must consider
air pollution control alternatives that
minimize, on a site-specific basis, to the
maximum extent practicable, potential
risks to public health or the
environment. In considering such
alternatives, the analysis may consider
costs, energy impacts, nonair
environmental impacts, or any other
factors related to the practicability of the
alternatives.
(b) Analyses of your CISWI unit’s
impacts that are prepared to comply

plan?
What is a waste management
A waste management plan is a written
plan that identifies both the feasibility
and the methods used to reduce or
separate certain components of solid
waste from the waste stream in order to
reduce or eliminate toxic emissions
from incinerated waste.
§ 60.2060 When must I submit my waste
management plan?
(a) You must submit a waste
management plan prior to commencing
construction.
(b) For CISWI units that commence
reconstruction or modification after

§ 60.2065 What should I include in my
waste management plan?
A waste management plan must
include consideration of the reduction
or separation of waste-stream elements
such as paper, cardboard, plastics, glass,
batteries, or metals; or the use of
recyclable materials. The plan must
identify any additional waste
management measures and implement
those measures the source considers
practical and feasible, considering the
effectiveness of waste management
measures already in place, the costs of
additional measures, the emissions
reductions expected to be achieved, and

(b) An incinerator or air curtain
incinerator that commenced
construction after November 30, 1999,
but no later than June 4, 2010, or that
commenced reconstruction or
modification on or after June 1, 2001 but
no later than August 7, 2013, must
continue to meet the emission limits in
table 1 of this subpart for units in the
incinerator subcategory and § 60.2250 of
this subpart for air curtain incinerators
until the units become subject to the
requirements of an approved state plan
or federal plan that implements subpart
DDDD of this part (Emission Guidelines
and Compliance Times for Commercial
and Industrial Solid Waste Incineration
Units).
§ 60.2110 What operating limits must I
meet and by when?
(a) If you use a wet scrubber(s) to
comply with the emission limitations,
you must establish operating limits for
up to four operating parameters (as
specified in table 2 of this subpart) as
described in paragraphs (a)(1) through
(4) of this section during the initial
performance test.
(1) Maximum charge rate, calculated
using one of the two different
procedures in paragraph (a)(1)(i) or (ii),
as appropriate.
(i) For continuous and intermittent
units, maximum charge rate is 110
percent of the average charge rate
measured during the most recent
performance test demonstrating
compliance with all applicable emission
limitations.
(ii) For batch units, maximum charge
rate is 110 percent of the daily charge
rate measured during the most recent
performance test demonstrating
compliance with all applicable emission
limitations.
(2) Minimum pressure drop across the
wet particulate matter scrubber, which
is calculated as the lowest 1-hour
average pressure drop across the wet
scrubber measured during the most
recent performance test demonstrating
compliance with the particulate matter
emission limitations; or minimum
amperage to the wet scrubber, which is
calculated as the lowest 1-hour average
amperage to the wet scrubber measured
during the most recent performance test
demonstrating compliance with the
particulate matter emission limitations.
(3) Minimum scrubber liquid flow
rate, which is calculated as the lowest
1-hour average liquid flow rate at the
inlet to the wet acid gas or particulate
matter scrubber measured during the
most recent performance test
demonstrating compliance with all
applicable emission limitations.

Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 13 / Wednesday, January 21, 2015 / Proposed Rules
(4) Minimum scrubber liquor pH,
which is calculated as the lowest 1-hour
average liquor pH at the inlet to the wet
acid gas scrubber measured during the
most recent performance test
demonstrating compliance with the HCl
emission limitation.
(b) You must meet the operating
limits established during the initial
performance test 60 days after your
CISWI unit reaches the charge rate at
which it will operate, but no later than
180 days after its initial startup.
(c) If you use a fabric filter to comply
with the emission limitations, you must
operate each fabric filter system such
that the bag leak detection system alarm
does not sound more than 5 percent of
the operating time during a 6-month
period. In calculating this operating
time percentage, if inspection of the
fabric filter demonstrates that no
corrective action is required, no alarm
time is counted. If corrective action is
required, each alarm shall be counted as
a minimum of 1 hour. If you take longer
than 1 hour to initiate corrective action,
the alarm time shall be counted as the
actual amount of time taken by you to
initiate corrective action.
(d) If you use an electrostatic
precipitator to comply with the
emission limitations, you must measure
the (secondary) voltage and amperage of
the electrostatic precipitator collection
plates during the particulate matter
performance test. Calculate the average
electric power value (secondary voltage
× secondary current = secondary electric
power) for each test run. The operating
limit for the electrostatic precipitator is
calculated as the lowest 1-hour average
secondary electric power measured
during the most recent performance test
demonstrating compliance with the
particulate matter emission limitations.
(e) If you use activated carbon sorbent
injection to comply with the emission
limitations, you must measure the
sorbent flow rate during the
performance testing. The operating limit
for the carbon sorbent injection is
calculated as the lowest 1-hour average
sorbent flow rate measured during the
most recent performance test
demonstrating compliance with the
mercury emission limitations. For
energy recovery units, when your unit
operates at lower loads, multiply your
sorbent injection rate by the load
fraction, as defined in this subpart, to
determine the required injection rate
(e.g., for 50 percent load, multiply the
injection rate operating limit by 0.5).
(f) If you use selective noncatalytic
reduction to comply with the emission
limitations, you must measure the
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:10 Jan 20, 2015
Jkt 235001
charge rate, the secondary chamber
temperature (if applicable to your CISWI
unit), and the reagent flow rate during
the nitrogen oxides performance testing.
The operating limits for the selective
noncatalytic reduction are calculated as
the highest 1-hour average charge rate,
lower secondary chamber temperature,
and lowest reagent flow rate measured
during the most recent performance test
demonstrating compliance with the
nitrogen oxides emission limitations.
(g) If you use a dry scrubber to comply
with the emission limitations, you must
measure the injection rate of each
sorbent during the performance testing.
The operating limit for the injection rate
of each sorbent is calculated as the
lowest 1-hour average injection rate or
each sorbent measured during the most
recent performance test demonstrating
compliance with the hydrogen chloride
emission limitations. For energy
recovery units, when your unit operates
at lower loads, multiply your sorbent
injection rate by the load fraction, as
defined in this subpart, to determine the
required injection rate (e.g., for 50
percent load, multiply the injection rate
operating limit by 0.5).
(h) If you do not use a wet scrubber,
electrostatic precipitator, or fabric filter
to comply with the emission limitations,
and if you do not determine compliance
with your particulate matter emission
limitation with a particulate matter
CEMS, you must maintain opacity to
less than or equal to 10 percent opacity
(1-hour block average).
(i) If you use a PM CPMS to
demonstrate compliance, you must
establish your PM CPMS operating limit
and determine compliance with it
according to paragraphs (i)(1) through
(5) of this section.
(1) Determine your operating limit as
the average PM CPMS output value
recorded during the performance test or
at a PM CPMS output value
corresponding to 75 percent of the
emission limit if your PM performance
test demonstrates compliance below 75
percent of the emission limit. You must
verify an existing or establish a new
operating limit after each repeated
performance test. 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.
(i) Your PM CPMS must provide a 4–
20 milliamp output, or digital
equivalent, and the establishment of its
relationship to manual reference
method measurements must be
determined in units of milliamps.
(ii) Your PM CPMS operating range
must be capable of reading PM
PO 00000
Frm 00015
Fmt 4701

3031
concentrations from zero to a level
equivalent to at least two 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 two times your
allowable emission limit.
(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).
(2) If the average of your three PM
performance test runs are 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 output values corresponding to
the three compliance test runs, and the
average PM concentration from the
Method 5 or performance test with the
procedures in (i)(1)through (5) of this
section.
(i) Determine your instrument zero
output with one of the following
procedures:
(A) 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.
(B) Zero point data for extractive
instruments should be obtained by
removing the extractive probe from the
stack and drawing in clean ambient air.
(C) The zero point can also can be
established obtained 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.
(D) If none of the steps in paragraphs
(i)(2)(i)(A) through (i)(2)(i)(C) of this
section are possible, you must use a zero
output value provided by the
manufacturer.
(ii) Determine your PM CPMS
instrument average in milliamps, or the
digital equivalent, and the average of
your corresponding three PM
compliance test runs, using equation 1.

(4) To determine continuous
compliance, you must record the PM
CPMS output data for all periods when
the process is operating and the PM
CPMS 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 (e.g.,
milliamps or digital signal bits, PM
concentration, raw data signal) on a 30day rolling average basis.

are not required to conduct additional
testing for any deviations that occur
between the time of the original
deviation and the PM emissions
compliance test required under this
paragraph.
(iv) PM CPMS deviations leading to
more than four required performance
tests in a 12-month process operating
period (rolling monthly) constitute a
violation of this subpart.
(y) When there is an alkali bypass
and/or an in-line coal mill that exhaust
emissions through a separate stack(s),
the combined emissions are subject to
the emission limits applicable to wasteburning kilns. To determine the kilnspecific emission limit for

limit for units other than waste-burning
kilns not equipped with a wet scrubber
or dry scrubber, a facility may substitute
use of a hydrogen chloride CEMS for
conducting the hydrogen chloride
annual performance test, monitoring the
minimum hydrogen chloride sorbent
flow rate, monitoring the minimum
scrubber liquor pH, and monitoring
minimum injection rate.
(h) To demonstrate continuous
compliance with the particulate matter
emissions limit, a facility may substitute
use of a particulate matter CEMS for
conducting the PM annual performance
test and using other CMS for monitoring
PM compliance (e.g., bag leak detectors,
ESP secondary power, PM scrubber
pressure).
(i) To demonstrate continuous
compliance with the dioxin/furan
emissions limit, a facility may substitute
use of a continuous automated sampling
system for the dioxin/furan annual
performance test. You must record the
output of the system and analyze the
sample according to EPA Method 23 at
40 CFR part 60, appendix A–7 of this
part. This option to use a continuous
automated sampling system takes effect
on the date a final performance
specification applicable to dioxin/furan
from continuous monitors is published
in the Federal Register. The owner or
operator who elects to continuously
sample dioxin/furan emissions instead
of sampling and testing using EPA
Method 23 at 40 CFR part 60, appendix
A–7 must install, calibrate, maintain,
and operate a continuous automated
sampling system and must comply with
the requirements specified in

substitute continuous dioxin/furan
monitoring for the minimum sorbent
flow rate, if activated carbon sorbent
injection is used solely for compliance
with the dioxin/furan emission limit.
(j) To demonstrate continuous
compliance with the mercury emissions
limit, a facility may substitute use of a
continuous automated sampling system
for the mercury annual performance
test. You must record the output of the

quality assurance procedure 5, as well
as the requirements specified in
§ 60.58b(p) and (q). A facility may
substitute continuous mercury
monitoring for the minimum sorbent
flow rate, if activated carbon sorbent
injection is used solely for compliance
with the mercury emission limit.
(k) To demonstrate continuous
compliance with the nitrogen oxides
emissions limit, a facility may substitute
use of a CEMS for the nitrogen oxides
annual performance test to demonstrate
compliance with the nitrogen oxides
emissions limits and monitoring the
charge rate, secondary chamber
temperature, and reagent flow for
selective noncatalytic reduction, if
applicable.
(1) Install, calibrate, maintain, and
operate a CEMS for measuring nitrogen
oxides emissions discharged to the

performance test for nitrogen oxides is
completed or is required to be
completed under § 60.2125, compliance
with the emission limit for nitrogen
oxides required under § 60.52b(d) must
be determined based on the 30-day
rolling average of the hourly emission
concentrations using CEMS outlet data.
The 1-hour arithmetic averages must be
expressed in parts per million by
volume corrected to 7 percent oxygen
(dry basis) and used to calculate the 30day rolling average concentrations.
CEMS data during startup and
shutdown, as defined in this subpart,
are not corrected to 7 percent oxygen,
and are measured at stack oxygen
content. The 1-hour arithmetic averages
must be calculated using the data points
required under § 60.13(e)(2).
(l) To demonstrate continuous
compliance with the sulfur dioxide
emissions limit, a facility may substitute
use of a continuous automated sampling
system for the sulfur dioxide annual
performance test to demonstrate
compliance with the sulfur dioxide
emissions limits.
(1) Install, calibrate, maintain, and
operate a CEMS for measuring sulfur
dioxide emissions discharged to the
atmosphere and record the output of the
system. The requirements under
performance specification 2 of appendix

average emission concentrations using
CEMS outlet data. The 1-hour arithmetic
averages must be expressed in parts per
million corrected to 7 percent oxygen
(dry basis) and used to calculate the 30day rolling average emission
concentrations. CEMS data during
startup and shutdown, as defined in this
subpart, are not corrected to 7 percent
oxygen, and are measured at stack
oxygen content. The 1-hour arithmetic
averages must be calculated using the
data points required under § 60.13(e)(2).
(m) For energy recovery units over 10
MMBtu/hr but less than 250 MMBtu/hr
annual average heat input rates that do
not use a wet scrubber, fabric filter with
bag leak detection system, or particulate
matter CEMS, you must install, operate,
certify, and maintain a continuous
opacity monitoring system according to
the procedures in paragraphs (m)(1)
through (5) of this section by the
compliance date specified in § 60.2105.
Energy recovery units that use a CEMS
to demonstrate initial and continuing
compliance according to the procedures
in § 60.2165(n) are not required to
install a continuous opacity monitoring
system and must perform the annual
performance tests for the opacity
consistent with § 60.2145(f).

remote incinerators, an owner or
operator may elect to install, calibrate,
maintain, and operate a CEMS for
monitoring particulate matter emissions
discharged to the atmosphere and
record the output of the system. The
owner or operator of an affected facility
who continuously monitors particulate
matter emissions instead of conducting
performance testing using EPA Method
5 at 40 CFR part 60, appendix A–3 or,
as applicable, monitor with a particulate
matter CPMS according to paragraph (r)
of this section, must install, calibrate,
maintain, and operate a CEMS and must
comply with the requirements specified
in paragraphs (n)(1) through (13) of this
section.
(1) Notify the Administrator 1 month
before starting use of the system.
(2) Notify the Administrator 1 month
before stopping use of the system.
(3) The monitor must be installed,
evaluated, and operated in accordance

specification 11 of appendix B of this
part and quality assurance requirements
of procedure two of appendix F of this
part and § 60.13. Use Method 5 or
Method 5I of Appendix A of this part for
the PM CEMS correlation testing.
(4) The initial performance evaluation
must be completed no later than 180
days after the date of initial startup of
the affected facility, as specified under
§ 60.2125 or within 180 days of
notification to the Administrator of use
of the continuous monitoring system if
the owner or operator was previously
determining compliance by Method 5
performance tests, whichever is later.
(5) The owner or operator of an
affected facility may request that
compliance with the particulate matter
emission limit be determined using
carbon dioxide measurements corrected
to an equivalent of 7 percent oxygen.
The relationship between oxygen and
carbon dioxide levels for the affected
facility must be established according to
the procedures and methods specified
in § 60.2145(s)(5)(i) through (s)(5)(iv).
(6) The owner or operator of an
affected facility must conduct an initial
performance test for particulate matter
emissions as required under § 60.2125.
Compliance with the particulate matter
emission limit, if PM CEMS are elected
for demonstrating compliance, must be
determined by using the CEMS
specified in this paragraph (n) to
measure particulate matter. You must
calculate a 30-day rolling average of 1hour arithmetic average emission
concentrations, including CEMS data
during startup and shutdown, as

per dry standard cubic meter corrected
to 7 percent oxygen (dry basis) and must
be used to calculate the 30-day rolling
average emission concentrations. CEMS
data during startup and shutdown, as
defined in this subpart, are not
corrected to 7 percent oxygen, and are
measured at stack oxygen content. The
1-hour arithmetic averages must be
calculated using the data points
required under § 60.13(e)(2).
(10) All valid CEMS data must be
used in calculating average emission
concentrations even if the minimum
CEMS data requirements of paragraph

of the CEMS.
(2) Following the date that the initial
performance test for carbon monoxide is
completed or is required to be
completed under § 60.2140, compliance
with the carbon monoxide emission
limit may be determined based on the
30-day rolling average of the hourly
arithmetic average emission
concentrations, including CEMS data

operating limit for oxygen according to
paragraph (q)(4) of this section is not
below the lowest hourly average oxygen
concentration measured during the most
recent CO performance test.
(4) You must calculate and record a
30-day rolling average oxygen
concentration using equation 19–19 in
section 12.4.1 of EPA Reference Method

introduced into the flame zone in the
hot end of the kiln or mixed with the
precalciner fuel.
Wet scrubber means an add-on air
pollution control device that uses an
aqueous or alkaline scrubbing liquor to
collect particulate matter (including
nonvaporous metals and condensed
organics) and/or to absorb and
neutralize acid gases.

operator training and qualification, a
waste management plan, emission
limitations, performance testing,
operating limits, monitoring,
recordkeeping and reporting, and air
curtain incinerator requirements.
(c) You must follow the requirements
of subpart B of this part (Adoption and
Submittal of State Plans for Designated
Facilities) in your state plan.
Agency (EPA) that implements the
emission guidelines contained in this
subpart.
(b) You must submit a state plan to
EPA by December 3, 2001 for
incinerator units that commenced
construction on or before November 30,
1999 and that were not modified or
reconstructed after June 1, 2001.
(c) You must submit a state plan that
meets the requirements of this subpart
and contains the more stringent
emission limit for the respective
pollutant in table 6 of this subpart or
table 1 of subpart CCCC of this part to
EPA by February 7, 2014 for
incinerators that commenced
construction after November 30, 1999,

§ 60.2525 What if my state plan is not
approvable?
(a) If you do not submit an approvable
state plan (or a negative declaration
letter) by December 2, 2002, EPA will
develop a federal plan according to
§ 60.27 to implement the emission
guidelines contained in this subpart.
Owners and operators of CISWI units
not covered by an approved state plan
must comply with the federal plan. The
federal plan is an interim action and
will be automatically withdrawn when
your state plan is approved.
(b) If you do not submit an approvable
state plan (or a negative declaration
letter) to EPA that meets the
requirements of this subpart and
contains the emission limits in tables 6
through 9 of this subpart for CISWI
units that commenced construction on
or before June 4, 2010 and incinerator or
air curtain incinerator units that
commenced reconstruction or
modification on or after June 1, 2001 but
no later than August 7, 2013, then EPA
will develop a federal plan according to
§ 60.27 to implement the emission
guidelines contained in this subpart.
Owners and operators of CISWI units
not covered by an approved state plan
must comply with the federal plan. The
federal plan is an interim action and
PO 00000
Frm 00041

will be automatically withdrawn when
your state plan is approved.
§ 60.2530 Is there an approval process for
a negative declaration letter?
No. The EPA has no formal review
process for negative declaration letters.
Once your negative declaration letter
has been received, EPA will place a
copy in the public docket and publish
a notice in the Federal Register. If, at a
later date, an existing CISWI unit is
found in your state, the federal plan
implementing the emission guidelines
contained in this subpart would
automatically apply to that CISWI unit
until your state plan is approved.
§ 60.2535 What compliance schedule must
I include in my state plan?
(a) For CISWI units in the incinerator
subcategory and air curtain incinerators
that commenced construction on or
before November 30, 1999, your state
plan must include compliance
schedules that require CISWI units in
the incinerator subcategory and air
curtain incinerators to achieve final
compliance as expeditiously as
practicable after approval of the state
plan but not later than the earlier of the
two dates specified in paragraphs (a)(1)
and (2) of this section.
(1) December 1, 2005.
(2) Three years after the effective date
of state plan approval.
(b) For CISWI units in the incinerator
subcategory and air curtain incinerators
that commenced construction after
November 30, 1999, but on or before
June 4, 2010 or that commenced
reconstruction or modification on or
after June 1, 2001 but no later than
August 7, 2013, and for CISWI units in
the small remote incinerator, energy
recovery unit, and waste-burning kiln
subcategories that commenced
construction before June 4, 2010, your
state plan must include compliance
schedules that require CISWI units to
achieve final compliance as
expeditiously as practicable after
approval of the state plan but not later
than the earlier of the two dates
specified in paragraphs (b)(1) and (2) of
this section.
(1) February 7, 2018.
(2) Three years after the effective date
of State plan approval.
(c) For compliance schedules more
than 1 year following the effective date
of State plan approval, State plans must
include dates for enforceable increments
of progress as specified in § 60.2580.

§ 60.2540 Are there any State plan
requirements for this subpart that apply
instead of the requirements specified in
subpart B?
Yes. Subpart B establishes general
requirements for developing and
processing section 111(d) plans. This
subpart applies instead of the
requirements in subpart B of this part
for paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section:
(a) State plans developed to
implement this subpart must be as
protective as the emission guidelines
contained in this subpart. State plans
must require all CISWI units to comply
by the dates specified in § 60.2535. This
applies instead of the option for case-bycase less stringent emission standards
and longer compliance schedules in
§ 60.24(f).
(b) State plans developed to
implement this subpart are required to
include two increments of progress for
the affected CISWI units. These two
minimum increments are the final
control plan submittal date and final
compliance date in § 60.21(h)(1) and (5).
This applies instead of the requirement
of § 60.24(e)(1) that would require a
State plan to include all five increments
of progress for all CISWI units.

§ 60.2541 In lieu of a state plan submittal,
are there other acceptable option(s) for a
state to meet its Clean Air Act section
111(d)/129(b)(2) obligations?
Yes, a state may meet its Clean Air
Act section 111(d)/129 obligations by
submitting an acceptable written request
for delegation of the federal plan that
meets the requirements of this section.
This is the only other option for a state
to meet its Clean Air Act section 111(d)/
129 obligations.
(a) An acceptable federal plan
delegation request must include the
following:
(1) A demonstration of adequate
resources and legal authority to
administer and enforce the federal plan.
(2) The items under § 60.2515(a)(1),
(2) and (7).
(3) Certification that the hearing on
the state delegation request, similar to
the hearing for a state plan submittal,
was held, a list of witnesses and their
organizational affiliations, if any,
appearing at the hearing, and a brief
written summary of each presentation or
written submission.
(4) A commitment to enter into a
Memorandum of Agreement with the
Regional Administrator who sets forth
the terms, conditions, and effective date
of the delegation and that serves as the

(b) Units that do not use wet
scrubbers must maintain opacity to less
than or equal to the percent opacity
(three 1-hour blocks consisting of ten 6minute average opacity values) specified
in table 2 of this subpart, as applicable.
§ 60.2675 What operating limits must I
meet and by when?
(a) If you use a wet scrubber(s) to
comply with the emission limitations,
you must establish operating limits for
up to four operating parameters (as
specified in table 3 of this subpart) as
described in paragraphs (a)(1) through
(4) of this section during the initial
performance test.
(1) Maximum charge rate, calculated
using one of the two different
procedures in paragraph (a)(1)(i) or (ii),
as appropriate.
(i) For continuous and intermittent
units, maximum charge rate is 110
percent of the average charge rate
measured during the most recent
performance test demonstrating
compliance with all applicable emission
limitations.
(ii) For batch units, maximum charge
rate is 110 percent of the daily charge
rate measured during the most recent
performance test demonstrating
compliance with all applicable emission
limitations.
(2) Minimum pressure drop across the
wet particulate matter scrubber, which

Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 13 / Wednesday, January 21, 2015 / Proposed Rules
compliance with the particulate matter
emission limitations; or minimum
amperage to the wet scrubber, which is
calculated as the lowest 1-hour average
amperage to the wet scrubber measured
during the most recent performance test
demonstrating compliance with the
particulate matter emission limitations.
(3) Minimum scrubber liquid flow
rate, which is calculated as the lowest
1-hour average liquid flow rate at the
inlet to the wet acid gas or particulate
matter scrubber measured during the
most recent performance test
demonstrating compliance with all
applicable emission limitations.
(4) Minimum scrubber liquor pH,
which is calculated as the lowest 1-hour
average liquor pH at the inlet to the wet
acid gas scrubber measured during the
most recent performance test
demonstrating compliance with the HCl
emission limitation.
(b) You must meet the operating
limits established during the initial
performance test on the date the initial
performance test is required or
completed (whichever is earlier). You
must conduct an initial performance
evaluation of each continuous
monitoring system and continuous
parameter monitoring system within 60
days of installation of the monitoring
system.
(c) If you use a fabric filter to comply
with the emission limitations, you must
operate each fabric filter system such
that the bag leak detection system alarm
does not sound more than 5 percent of
the operating time during a 6-month
period. In calculating this operating
time percentage, if inspection of the
fabric filter demonstrates that no
corrective action is required, no alarm
time is counted. If corrective action is
required, each alarm shall be counted as
a minimum of 1 hour. If you take longer
than 1 hour to initiate corrective action,
the alarm time shall be counted as the
actual amount of time taken by you to
initiate corrective action.
(d) If you use an electrostatic
precipitator to comply with the
emission limitations, you must measure
the (secondary) voltage and amperage of
the electrostatic precipitator collection
plates during the particulate matter
performance test. Calculate the average
electric power value (secondary voltage
× secondary current = secondary electric
power) for each test run. The operating
limit for the electrostatic precipitator is
calculated as the lowest 1-hour average
secondary electric power measured
during the most recent performance test
demonstrating compliance with the
particulate matter emission limitations.
(e) If you use activated carbon sorbent
injection to comply with the emission

Jkt 235001
limitations, you must measure the
sorbent flow rate during the
performance testing. The operating limit
for the carbon sorbent injection is
calculated as the lowest 1-hour average
sorbent flow rate measured during the
most recent performance test
demonstrating compliance with the
mercury emission limitations. For
energy recovery units, when your unit
operates at lower loads, multiply your
sorbent injection rate by the load
fraction, as defined in this subpart, to
determine the required injection rate
(e.g., for 50 percent load, multiply the
injection rate operating limit by 0.5).
(f) If you use selective noncatalytic
reduction to comply with the emission
limitations, you must measure the
charge rate, the secondary chamber
temperature (if applicable to your CISWI
unit), and the reagent flow rate during
the nitrogen oxides performance testing.
The operating limits for the selective
noncatalytic reduction are calculated as
the highest 1-hour average charge rate,
lowest secondary chamber temperature,
and lowest reagent flow rate measured
during the most recent performance test
demonstrating compliance with the
nitrogen oxides emission limitations.
(g) If you use a dry scrubber to comply
with the emission limitations, you must
measure the injection rate of each
sorbent during the performance testing.
The operating limit for the injection rate
of each sorbent is calculated as the
lowest 1-hour average injection rate of
each sorbent measured during the most
recent performance test demonstrating
compliance with the hydrogen chloride
emission limitations. For energy
recovery units, when your unit operates
at lower loads, multiply your sorbent
injection rate by the load fraction, as
defined in this subpart, to determine the
required injection rate (e.g., for 50
percent load, multiply the injection rate
operating limit by 0.5).
(h) If you do not use a wet scrubber,
electrostatic precipitator, or fabric filter
to comply with the emission limitations,
and if you do not determine compliance
with your particulate matter emission
limitation with a particulate matter
CEMS, you must maintain opacity to
less than or equal to ten percent opacity
(1-hour block average).
(i) If you use a PM CPMS to
demonstrate compliance, you must
establish your PM CPMS operating limit
and determine compliance with it
according to paragraphs (i)(1) through
(5) of this section.
(1) During the initial performance test
or any such subsequent performance
test that demonstrates compliance with
the PM limit, record all hourly average
output values (milliamps, or the digital

signal equivalent) from the PM CPMS
for the periods corresponding to the test
runs (e.g., three 1-hour average PM
CPMS output values for three 1-hour
test runs).
(i) Your PM CPMS must provide a 4–
20 milliamp output, or the digital signal
equivalent, and the establishment of its
relationship to manual reference
method measurements must be
determined in units of milliamps or
digital bits.
(ii) Your PM CPMS operating range
must be capable of reading PM
concentrations from zero to a level
equivalent to at least two 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 two times your
allowable emission limit.
(iii) During the initial performance
test or any such subsequent
performance test that demonstrates
compliance with the PM limit, record
and average all milliamp output values,
or their digital equivalent, 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).
(2) If the average of your three PM
performance test runs are 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
performance test with the procedures in
(i)(1)through (5) of this section.
(i) Determine your instrument zero
output with one of the following
procedures:
(A) 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.
(B) Zero point data for extractive
instruments should be obtained by
removing the extractive probe from the
stack and drawing in clean ambient air.
(C) The zero point can also can be
established obtained 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.

(i)(2)(i)(A) through (i)(2)(i)(C) of this
section are possible, you must use a zero
output value provided by the
manufacturer.

(4) To determine continuous
compliance, you must record the PM
CPMS output data for all periods when
the process is operating and the PM
CPMS 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

report must also include the make and
model of the PM CPMS instrument,
serial number of the instrument,

operate above the maximum charge rate,
or below the minimum secondary
chamber temperature (if applicable to
your CISWI unit) or the minimum
reagent flow rate measured as 3-hour
block averages at all times.
(2) Operation of the affected facility
above the maximum charge rate, below
the minimum secondary chamber
temperature and below the minimum
reagent flow rate simultaneously
constitute a violation of the nitrogen
oxides emissions limit.
(f) If you use an electrostatic
precipitator to comply with the
emission limits of this subpart, you
must monitor the secondary power to
the electrostatic precipitator collection
plates and maintain the 3-hour block
averages at or above the operating limits
established during the mercury or
particulate matter performance test.
(g) For waste-burning kilns not
equipped with a wet scrubber or dry
scrubber, in place of hydrogen chloride
testing with EPA Method 321 at 40 CFR
part 63, appendix A, an owner or
operator must install, calibrate,
maintain, and operate a CEMS for
monitoring hydrogen chloride emissions
discharged to the atmosphere and
record the output of the system. To
demonstrate continuous compliance
with the hydrogen chloride emissions
limit for units other than waste-burning
kilns not equipped with a wet scrubber
or dry scrubber, a facility may substitute
use of a hydrogen chloride CEMS for
conducting the hydrogen chloride
annual performance test, monitoring the
minimum hydrogen chloride sorbent
flow rate, monitoring the minimum
scrubber liquor pH.
(h) To demonstrate continuous
compliance with the particulate matter
emissions limit, a facility may substitute
use of a particulate matter CEMS for
conducting the particulate matter
annual performance test and other CMS
monitoring for PM compliance (e.g., bag
leak detectors, ESP secondary power,
PM scrubber pressure).
(i) To demonstrate continuous
compliance with the dioxin/furan
emissions limit, a facility may substitute
use of a continuous automated sampling
system for the dioxin/furan annual
performance test. You must record the
output of the system and analyze the
sample according to EPA Method 23 at
40 CFR part 60, appendix A–7. This
option to use a continuous automated
sampling system takes effect on the date
a final performance specification
applicable to dioxin/furan from
continuous monitors is published in the
Federal Register. The owner or operator
who elects to continuously sample
dioxin/furan emissions instead of

flow rate, if activated carbon sorbent
injection is used solely for compliance
with the dioxin/furan emission limit.
(j) To demonstrate continuous
compliance with the mercury emissions
limit, a facility may substitute use of a
continuous automated sampling system
for the mercury annual performance
test. You must record the output of the
system and analyze the sample at set
intervals using any suitable
determinative technique that can meet
performance specification 12B criteria.
This option to use a continuous
automated sampling system takes effect
on the date a final performance
specification applicable to mercury from
monitors is published in the Federal
Register. The owner or operator who
elects to continuously sample mercury
emissions instead of sampling and
testing using EPA Method 29 or 30B at
40 CFR part 60, appendix A–8, ASTM
D6784–02 (Reapproved 2008)
(incorporated by reference, see § 60.17),
or an approved alternative method for
measuring mercury emissions, must
install, calibrate, maintain and operate a
continuous automated sampling system
and must comply with the requirements
specified in § 60.58b(p) and (q). A
facility may substitute continuous
mercury monitoring for the minimum
sorbent flow rate, if activated carbon
sorbent injection is used solely for
compliance with the mercury emission
limit.
(k) To demonstrate continuous
compliance with the nitrogen oxides
emissions limit, a facility may substitute
use of a CEMS for the nitrogen oxides
annual performance test to demonstrate
compliance with the nitrogen oxides
emissions limits and monitoring the
charge rate, secondary chamber
temperature and reagent flow for
selective noncatalytic reduction, if
applicable.
(1) Install, calibrate, maintain and
operate a CEMS for measuring nitrogen
oxides emissions discharged to the

completed under § 60.2690, compliance
with the emission limit for nitrogen
oxides required under § 60.52b(d) must
be determined based on the 30-day
rolling average of the hourly emission
concentrations using CEMS outlet data.
The 1-hour arithmetic averages must be
expressed in parts per million by
volume corrected to 7 percent oxygen
(dry basis) and used to calculate the 30day rolling average concentrations.
CEMS data during startup and
shutdown, as defined in this subpart,
are not corrected to 7 percent oxygen,
and are measured at stack oxygen
content. The 1-hour arithmetic averages
must be calculated using the data points
required under § 60.13(e)(2).
(l) To demonstrate continuous
compliance with the sulfur dioxide
emissions limit, a facility may substitute
use of a continuous automated sampling
system for the sulfur dioxide annual
performance test to demonstrate
compliance with the sulfur dioxide
emissions limits.
(1) Install, calibrate, maintain and
operate a CEMS for measuring sulfur
dioxide emissions discharged to the
atmosphere and record the output of the
system. The requirements under
performance specification 2 of appendix
B of this part, the quality assurance
requirements of procedure 1 of
appendix F of this part and the
procedures under § 60.13 must be
followed for installation, evaluation and
operation of the CEMS.
(2) Following the date that the initial
performance test for sulfur dioxide is
completed or is required to be
completed under § 60.2690, compliance
with the sulfur dioxide emission limit
may be determined based on the 30-day
rolling average of the hourly arithmetic
average emission concentrations using
CEMS outlet data. The 1-hour arithmetic
averages must be expressed in parts per
million corrected to 7 percent oxygen
(dry basis) and used to calculate the 30day rolling average emission
concentrations. CEMS data during
startup and shutdown, as defined in this
subpart, are not corrected to 7 percent
oxygen, and are measured at stack
oxygen content. The 1-hour arithmetic
averages must be calculated using the
data points required under § 60.13(e)(2).
(m) For energy recovery units over 10
MMBtu/hr but less than 250 MMBtu/hr

recovery units, incinerators, and small
remote incinerators, an owner or
operator may elect to install, calibrate,
maintain and operate a CEMS for
monitoring particulate matter emissions
discharged to the atmosphere and
record the output of the system. The
owner or operator of an affected facility
who continuously monitors particulate
matter emissions instead of conducting
performance testing using EPA Method
5 at 40 CFR part 60, appendix A–3 or,
as applicable, monitor with a particulate
matter CPMS according to paragraph (r)
of this section, must install, calibrate,

(9) The 1-hour arithmetic averages
required under paragraph (n)(7) of this
section must be expressed in milligrams
per dry standard cubic meter corrected
to 7 percent oxygen (or carbon
dioxide)(dry basis) and must be used to
calculate the 30-day rolling average
emission concentrations. CEMS data
during startup and shutdown, as
defined in this subpart, are not
corrected to 7 percent oxygen, and are
measured at stack oxygen content. The
1-hour arithmetic averages must be

with monitoring system malfunctions or
out-of-control periods (as specified in
§ 60.2770(o)), and required monitoring
system quality assurance or quality
control activities including, as
applicable, calibration checks and
required zero and span adjustments. A
monitoring system malfunction is any
sudden, infrequent, not reasonably
preventable failure of the monitoring
system to provide valid data.
Monitoring system failures that are
caused in part by poor maintenance or
careless operation are not malfunctions.
You are required to effect monitoring
system repairs in response to
monitoring system malfunctions or outof-control periods and to return the
monitoring system to operation as
expeditiously as practicable.
(b) You may not use data recorded
during the monitoring system

report emissions or operating levels.
You must use all the data collected
during all other periods in assessing the
operation of the control device and
associated control system.
(c) Except for periods of monitoring
system malfunctions or out-of-control
periods, repairs associated with
monitoring system malfunctions or outof-control periods, and required
monitoring system quality assurance or
quality control activities including, as
applicable, calibration checks and
required zero and span adjustments,
failure to collect required data is a
deviation of the monitoring
requirements.

Incineration Units
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: On February 7, 2013, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
promulgated its final response to petitions for reconsideration of the
final new source performance standards (NSPS) and emission guidelines
(EG) for commercial and industrial solid waste incineration (CISWI)
units that were promulgated on March 21, 2011. Following promulgation
of the February 2013 final action, the Administrator received petitions
for reconsideration that identified issues that petitioners maintain
require additional reconsideration and/or warrant further opportunity
for public comment. In this action, the EPA is granting reconsideration
on four provisions of the February 2013 final NSPS and EG for CISWI
units. In addition, the EPA identified regulatory provisions that
require clarification and editorial correction to address
inconsistencies and errors in the final rules. The proposed amendments
provide additional clarity and improve the implementation of the
February 2013 final CISWI standards, but do not have any environmental,
energy or economic impacts associated with the proposed action.
DATES: Comments. Comments must be received on or before March 9, 2015,
or 30 days after date of public hearing, if later.
Public Hearing. If anyone contacts us requesting to speak at a
public hearing by January 26, 2015, a public hearing will be held on

I. General Information
A. Background Information
On March 21, 2011, the EPA promulgated revised NSPS and EG for
CISWI units (i.e., solid waste incineration units located at commercial
or industrial facilities). Following that action, the Administrator
received petitions for reconsideration that identified certain issues
that warranted further opportunity for public comment. In response to
the petitions, the EPA reconsidered and requested comment on several
provisions of the February 2011 final NSPS and EG for commercial and
industrial solid waste incineration units. The EPA published the
proposed revisions to the NSPS and EG for commercial and industrial
solid waste units on December 23, 2011 (76 FR 80452).
On February 7, 2013, the EPA promulgated the final reconsidered
NSPS and EG for CISWI units (78 FR 9112). The final rule made some
revisions to the December 2011 proposed reconsideration rule in
response to comments and additional information received. Following
that action, the EPA again received petitions for reconsideration.
These petitions stated certain provisions should be reconsidered and
that the public lacked sufficient opportunity to comment on some of the
provisions contained in the final 2013 CISWI rule. In this action, the
EPA is reconsidering and requesting comment on four provisions of the
2013 final NSPS and EG for CISWI units. Additionally, the EPA is
proposing clarifying changes and corrections to the final rule, some of
which are raised in petitions for reconsideration of the 2013 CISWI
rule. The EPA is also proposing to amend the final rule by removing the
affirmative defense provision. The EPA continues to evaluate the
remaining issues raised in the petitions for reconsideration. For a
more detailed background and additional information on how this rule is
related to other CAA combustion rules issued under section 112 and the
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) definition of solid
waste, refer to prior notices (76 FR 15704, 78 FR 9112).
B. Actions We Are Taking
In this notice, we are granting reconsideration of, and requesting
comment on, certain issues raised by Petitioners in their petitions for
reconsideration on the 2013 CISWI rule. These provisions are: (1)
Definition of ``CEMS data during startup and shutdown periods;'' (2)
particulate matter (PM) limit for the waste-burning kiln subcategory;
(3) fuel variability factor (FVF) for coal-burning energy recovery
units; and (4) the definition of kiln. Additionally, the EPA proposes
to clarify certain applicability provisions relating to incinerator
units and air curtain incinerator units subject to the 2000 CISWI NSPS
and to correct various typographical errors identified in the rule as
published in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). The EPA is also
proposing to amend the final rule by removing the affirmative defense
provision. Sections D and F of this preamble summarize these issues and
present the proposed revisions necessary to address each issue.
We are seeking public comment only on the issues specifically
identified in this action. We will not respond to any comments
addressing other aspects of the 2013 CISWI final rule or any other
rulemakings.
C. Discussion of Issues for Reconsideration
This section of the preamble contains the EPA's basis for
reconsidering the provisions we identify in this proposed rule. We
solicit comment on the four issues discussed in this section and the
proposed technical corrections and clarifications discussed in Section
D of this preamble.
1. Definition of ``CEMS Data During Startup and Shutdown Periods''
Today's proposal requests comments on the definition of ``CEMS data
during startup and shutdown'' contained in the February 2013 final
rule. As background, the 2011 CISWI final rule contained continuous
emissions monitoring system (CEMS) monitoring requirements for carbon
monoxide (CO) from new sources, including a provision that mandated a 7
percent oxygen correction. After the 2011 CISWI final rule was
published, petitioners indicated that correcting CO concentration
measurements to 7 percent oxygen is problematic during startup and
shutdown periods when the flue gas oxygen content approaches the oxygen
content of ambient air, especially with regard to the energy recovery
unit (ERU) subcategory. Oxygen contents relatively close to ambient air
are often maintained during combustion unit startup and shutdown in
order to safely operate the unit, but, as a result, the corrected CO
values during these periods are artificially inflated due to the oxygen
correction calculation. Petitioners presented data that demonstrated
how these inflated data points drive the 30-day rolling average values
beyond the emission limit.
[[Page 3021]]
To resolve this issue, the EPA determined that the 7 percent oxygen
correction would not be required for CEMS data collected during periods
of startup and shutdown. Based on data submitted for coal-burning ERUs,
a new definition of ``CEMS data during startup and shutdown'' was
proposed in the December 2011 reconsideration proposal that referred to
the data collected during the first 4 hours of operation of an energy
recovery unit starting up from a cold start and the hour of operation
following the cessation of waste material being fed to the unit during
shutdown.
The EPA received comments on the proposed definition expressing
concern that the time limits included in the definition may not
accurately represent all CISWI unit types. Further, commenters argued
that the same logic should apply for all CEMS-measured emission limits,
not just CO. They explained that, even though CEMS is a compliance
alternative rather than a requirement for most CISWI standards, other
air regulations and permit requirements may require the units to
continue to monitor emissions using CEMS data. Therefore, in the
February 2013 CISWI final rule, the definition was revised to include
all pollutants measured with a CEMS, expanded to include a separate
definition for waste-burning kilns, and the 4-hour and 1-hour time
limits in the definition were removed. The EPA defined the end of the
startup period and the beginning of the shutdown period as the
introduction and cessation of waste fed to the unit, respectively.
Information available for the best performing units demonstrates their
typical operation and supports the idea that startup and shutdown
periods be defined by the introduction and cessation of waste being fed
to the units. Furthermore, for the incinerator, small remote
incinerator, and the ERU subcategories, the startup period was limited
to 48 hours and the shutdown period limited to 24 hours.
After the February 2013 CISWI final rule was promulgated, the EPA
received petitions stating that stakeholders did not have the
opportunity to comment on the final definition, especially the clause
that defines the beginning and ending of these periods as the
introduction and cessation, respectively, of waste material being fed
to the combustor. Petitioners argued that, with the inclusion of the
provision ending startup when waste is added to the unit, the end of
startup will occur too early because units that combust waste often
introduce waste before steady state operations to transition from
startup fuel to waste and other primary fuel combustion. For this
reason, the petitioners argued that the EPA should extend the startup
period duration to include the period of time when sources are
transitioning to waste combustion from the startup fuel. We are taking
comment on whether the definition should be revised to extend the
startup period to include this transitional period of combustor
operation. In addition, the EPA requests that commenters suggest
provisions that would ensure adequate application of the CEMS data
during startup and shutdown definition, such as maximum allowable time
limits after introduction of waste, if the agency were to allow solid
waste combustion during startup.
2. PM Limit for the Waste-burning Kiln Subcategory
The February 2013 CISWI final rule included PM limits for new and
existing waste-burning kilns in the NSPS and EG, respectively.
Petitioners have requested reconsideration of these emission limits,
stating that they did not have the opportunity to review and comment on
the data used to calculate the 2013 emission limits.
As background, the March 2011 CISWI final rule promulgated PM
emissions limits of 6.2 milligrams per dry standard cubic meter (mg/
dscm) for existing units, and 2.5 mg/dscm for new units, both corrected
to 7 percent oxygen. In an action parallel to the March 21, 2011, final
CISWI rule, the EPA promulgated a final rule that identifies the
standards and procedures for identifying whether non-hazardous
secondary materials (NHSM) are or are not solid waste when used as
fuels or ingredients in combustion units. The EPA defines the NHSM that
are solid waste under RCRA in the final ``Identification of Non-
Hazardous Secondary Materials That Are Solid Waste'' rulemaking. The
RCRA definition of solid waste is integral in defining the CISWI source
category. Commercial and industrial units that combust solid waste are
subject to standards issued pursuant to CAA section 129, rather than to
standards issued pursuant to CAA section 112 that would otherwise be
applicable to such units (e.g., boilers, process heaters and cement
kilns). Cement kilns combusting solid waste are waste-burning kilns
subject to CISWI, not the otherwise applicable national emission
standards for hazardous air pollutants (NESHAP). Following promulgation
of the 2011 CISWI rule, the EPA again analyzed the materials being
combusted in the entire national inventory of Portland cement kilns in
light of the revisions to the NHSM rule, and made revisions to the
CISWI waste-burning kiln inventory. When kilns were added to the
inventory and their emissions data considered, the resulting NSPS and
EG PM emission limits proposed in the December 2011 reconsideration
were less stringent than those established in the March 2011 CISWI
final rule.
Following the December 2011 reconsideration proposal, the EPA
learned that one of the kilns in the CISWI inventory was no longer
burning waste, and another kiln that was not thought to be burning
waste materials was doing so. The CISWI waste-burning kiln inventory
was revised during the period between proposal and final to reflect
these changes, and the database updated to include emissions data for
the new unit, as well as some additional test reports obtained for
units within the inventory. The EPA calculated the MACT floors after
making the appropriate revisions to the inventory and the new NSPS and
EG PM emission limits were more stringent than those proposed in the
December 2011 reconsideration proposal. Table 1, below, tracks the
progression of the waste-burning kiln PM limits from the March 2011
final rule through the February 2013 final rule.
Throughout the CISWI rulemaking process from March 2011 through
February 2013, the EPA used the same calculation methodology (i.e., the
upper prediction limit calculated from a population of individual test
runs) to establish the emission limits for waste-burning kilns.
However, the data set used in these calculations has changed and grown
over this period of time as the agency has revised the CISWI inventory
based on information submitted to the agency by the regulated
community. As a result, a petitioner has suggested that the current PM
emission data set for waste-burning kilns is robust enough to warrant
using 3-run emission test averages as the data population rather than
the individual test runs. According to the commenter, using this
approach to calculate emission limits would result in PM emission
limits that are different than those of the February 2013 CISWI final
rule. The calculated PM emission limits using the test averages are
also presented in Table 1 for comparison.
In the context of MACT analyses, emission test averages or
individual test run data can be used to determine emissions variability
of best performers. We typically use individual test runs, but for
categories with data from 15 or more sources, which would provide at
least 45 test runs, we may choose to use test averages. In these larger
datasets, the use of test averages or test runs is
[[Page 3022]]
expected to make very little difference in the calculated level of the
standard. In today's proposal, the EPA is soliciting comment on the
data set used in the February 2013 final rule, as well as whether this
data set now warrants a different calculation approach due to its size
or other factors. See the memoranda titled ``Potential Emission Limits
Calculation Analyses for Waste-burning Kilns and Coal ERUs,''
``Approach for Applying the Upper Prediction Limit to Limited
Datasets,'' and ``Use of the Upper Prediction Limit for Calculating
MACT Floors'' in the CISWI docket for more details.

3. FVF for Coal-burning Energy Recovery Units
In the preamble to the 2013 final CISWI rule, we explained the
methodology used to establish the final emission limits, which relied
almost exclusively on direct emissions measurements. A petitioner
expressed concern that the derivation of the CISWI limits for the coal-
fired ERU subcategory should take into account the variable constituent
levels in coal and urged the EPA to incorporate fuel variability into
the emission limit calculations for coal-fired ERUs as was done in the
Boiler MACT for coal-fired boilers.
The petitioner contended that the EPA's emissions dataset for coal
ERUs is very limited for the fuel-dependent pollutants hydrogen
chloride (HCl), lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), mercury (Hg), and sulfur
dioxide (SO2), and that emission standards based on stack
test and CEMS data alone are too stringent to be met reliably because
of the inherent variability of the coal. Specifically, they noted that
emission standards were based solely on one stack test for Cd, Pb and
HCl, two stack tests for Hg and 7 days of CEMS data for SO2,
emphasizing the short-term nature of these data. They argued that coal
has variable levels of each of these contaminants, referencing
historical fuel data previously submitted to the agency during the
public comment period.
Further, the petitioner expressed their concern that EPA based its
decision in the 2013 final rule on inaccurate assumptions about the
three Eastman boilers in the coal-fired ERU subcategory. This concern
stemmed from an error in the EPA's response to Eastman's previous
comments regarding the proposal, which mistakenly stated that for some
pollutants, the best performers were not Eastman units. While this
statement was true at the time of proposal, two significant changes
were made regarding the coal-burning ERU subcategory in finalizing the
2013 final rule: (1) The EPA determined it would be appropriate to
subcategorize solid fuel ERUs into coal-burning and biomass-burning for
HCl and Hg as well as the other pollutants; and (2) the only other
facility having emissions data for a coal-burning ERU confirmed that
the secondary materials combusted in their unit met the legitimacy
criteria for a fuel, and therefore the unit was removed from the CISWI
inventory. With these changes implemented, the top performer for every
pollutant became one of the three Eastman units.
For the 2013 final rule, the EPA's rationale for rejecting comments
calling for the incorporation of a FVF in the emission limit
calculations for coal-burning ERUs was based on the following points:
(1) The subcategorization of biomass-burning and coal-burning ERUs for
all nine pollutants ensures that the limits account for differences in
units designed to burn coal or biomass; (2) the EPA has fuel
variability data for only one facility within the coal-fired ERU
subcategory, so the resulting FVF may not be reflective of the
materials being combusted by other sources within the subcategory; and,
(3) the EPA's analyses indicated that variability was adequately
accounted for because the best performing sources in the coal-fired ERU
(ERU solids (coal)) subcategory are able to meet the final emission
limits. The petitioner objected to the EPA's assertion that the best
performers met all of the final emission limits, emphasizing that units
may not be able to consistently meet the standards. While they
acknowledged that limits set for Cd, Pb and Hg may already account for
contaminant variability (because Pb and Hg are controlled by
electrostatic precipitators (ESPs) and Cd is rarely detected in their
coal supplies), they argue that emissions of SO2 and HCl
from the best performers are not controlled and are entirely dependent
on sulfur and chlorine content of the fuel. This same petitioner also
contended that the data the EPA used to establish the final rule
nitrogen oxide (NOX) emission limit for the best-performing
unit in the coal-fired ERU subcategory does not reflect this unit's
actual performance accurately, since it reflects only periods of waste
combustion in the analysis. The petitioner noted that this unit, as
well as the other coal-fired ERUs at this facility, operate for
extended periods of time in a non-waste burning mode. As a remedy, the
petitioner suggested that the EPA use data from both waste-burning and
non-waste burning periods for the best-performing unit to establish
maximum achievable control technology (MACT) floor emission limits,
stating that these will more accurately reflect actual operating
conditions for this unit. The petitioner subsequently provided the EPA
additional longer-term NOX CEMS data for the best-performing
unit (reflecting coal-only and waste combustion periods of operation)
which could be used to provide a larger data set on which to base the
NOX emission limit calculations.
We are, therefore, requesting comments and supporting data
regarding the need to establish a FVF for the ERU solids (coal)
subcategory, including stack test data from coal-only periods of
operation in our emission limit calculations, and whether the EPA
should re-evaluate the NOX emission limit by using the
additional CEMS data provided for the best performing unit. Table 2
presents a comparison of the 2013 final rule emission limits for
existing coal ERUs and what the emission limit calculation results are
when all data available (i.e., waste and coal-only modes of operation),
FVF calculation techniques and the
[[Page 3023]]
additional CEMS data provided by the petitioner are used in conjunction
to calculate the emission limits. See the memorandum, ``Potential
Emission Limits Calculation Analyses for Waste-burning Kilns and Coal
ERUs,'' in the CISWI docket for more details.

4. Definition of Kiln
In today's rule, the EPA is also revising the definition of
``kiln'' and adding definitions of ``in-line raw mill'' and ``in-line
coal mill'' to further clarify the boundaries of the waste-burning kiln
and to remain consistent with similar revisions made in the Portland
Cement NESHAP. Since the in-line raw mill and in-line coal mill are
part of the kiln, the kiln emission limits also apply to the exhaust of
the in-line raw mill and in-line coal mill. For more background on this
issue, the EPA discussed at length in the preamble to the proposed
Portland Cement NESHAP a potential regulatory regime to cover
situations where a portion of the kiln exhaust is ducted to the coal
mill. See 77 FR 42383-85; see also the regulatory text at 77 FR 42398,
42402-06, 42408-09.
For waste-burning kilns, we have adopted language in the definition
of ``kiln'' to make it consistent with that of the Portland Cement
NESHAP. The terms ``in-line raw mill'' and ``in-line coal mill'' are
included in this definition, and, therefore, are also being added to
the definitions within the CISWI rule.
In addition to the definitional amendments, we are also proposing a
compliance demonstration and on-going monitoring method for waste-
burning kilns that combine emission streams from the in-line raw mill
and in-line coal mill and exhaust through multiple stacks. This
approach allows sources to measure pollutant concentrations and flows
from each of the stacks (i.e., kiln, alkali bypass, and in-line coal
mill, as applicable) and calculate a flow-weighted average kiln stack
concentration that must be met in order to be in compliance with the
CISWI waste-burning kiln emission limits. These provisions are modeled
upon similar provisions and equations found in the Portland Cement
NESHAP, and should streamline compliance demonstrations for waste-
burning kilns that combine streams prior to discharge to the atmosphere
through one or more stacks. These proposed calculation method and
measurement location options are found in 40 CFR 60.2145 and 40 CFR
60.2710. We request comments on these definitional and calculation
method changes to demonstrating compliance for waste-burning kilns that
combine streams prior to discharge to the atmosphere through one or
more stacks.
D. Technical Corrections and Clarifications
In today's rule, we are also proposing some changes to the final
rule to correct minor typographical errors and clarify some portions
that may have been unclear. This section of the preamble summarizes
these corrections and clarifications.
1. 2000 CISWI New Source Applicability Clarification for Incinerators
and Air Curtain Incinerators
Following promulgation of the February 2013 CISWI final rule, the
EPA received questions regarding the continued applicability of the
2000 CISWI NSPS for units that are subject to the 2000 CISWI NSPS as
they are transitioned from the 2000 NSPS to the February 2013 EG with
which they will eventually be required to comply. The 2000 CISWI NSPS
are the same as the 2000 CISWI EG and limited in applicability to the
incinerator subcategory and air curtain incinerators so only these
types of CISWI units being regulated in the February 2013 CISWI final
rules are affected by the applicability issue. The EPA intended,
consistent with the statute and our stated intent (see 76 FR 15711,
March 21, 2011), to continue to regulate these units as ``new'' sources
under the 2000 NSPS, and then regulate them as ``existing'' sources
under the more stringent EG once these units were covered under an
approved state plan or federal plan that implements the February 2013
CISWI final EG. The language in the February 7, 2013 NSPS at 40 CFR
60.2105 and the title of Table 1 to 40 CFR part 60, subpart CCCC make
the EPA's intent to do so evident. However, the applicability section
in 40 CFR 60.2015 omitted the applicability provisions for incinerators
and air curtain incinerators that are subject to the 2000 CISWI NSPS.
In today's proposal, the EPA is proposing additional language in 40 CFR
60.2015(a) and 40 CFR 60.2105(b) that clarifies that these incinerators
and air curtain incinerators remain ``new'' units regulated under the
2000 NSPS until such time that an approved state plan or federal plan
implements the February 2013 EG for those unit, at which time such
units will be subject to the 2013 EG to the extent those limits are
more stringent than the 2000 CISWI NSPS limits.
2. Typographical Errors and Corrections
The following items are typographical errors in the final rule that
we are proposing to correct in today's proposal:
References in Sec. 60.2020(e), Sec. 60.2020(f), Sec.
60.2555(e), and Sec. 60.2555(f) were changed from ``. . . paragraphs

Language in Sec. 60.2145(x)(1)(iii), Sec.
60.2165(r)(1)(iii), Sec. 60.2710(x)(1)(iii) and Sec.
60.2730(r)(1)(iii) was revised to clarify the PM continuous parameter
monitoring system (CPMS) detection limit. The phrase ``of no greater
than'' was changed to ``increments no greater than''.
Provisions for PM CPMS in both subparts were revised to
also clarify the output signals from digital monitoring devices and
remove ``lb/Mmbtu'' typographical errors.
The reference in Sec. 60.2165(q)(1) was changed from
``Sec. 60.2675'' to ``Sec. 60.2140''.
Text in Sec. 60.2165(q)(3) was corrected from ``. . .
paragraph (q)(4) or this section . . .'' to ``. . . paragraph (q)(4) of
this section . . .''.
The title of 40 CFR part 60, subpart CCCC Table 1 was
revised to clarify that these emission limits apply to incinerators
that were subject to the 2000 CISWI rule provisions.
The dates paragraphs (a)(1) and (2) of Sec. 60.2535 from
the 2000 CISWI rule were omitted in the current CFR version of the
rule, and have been reinserted.
Added text in Sec. 60.2525(b) and Sec. 60.2535(b) to
clarify applicability for incinerators and air curtain incinerators
that were reconstructed or modified on or after June 1, 2001, but no
later than August 7, 2013.
Revised the language of Sec. 60.2550(b) to reflect the
August 7, 2013 date for purposes of applicability with 40 CFR part 60,
subpart CCCC.
The text ``over 10 MMBtu/hr but less than 250 MMBtu/hr
annual average heat input rates'' was added to Sec. 60.2730(m) for
clarification and consistency.
The definition of chemical recovery unit in Sec. 60.2265
was revised to be consistent with the definition provided in Sec.
60.2875. The following text was added: ``A chemical recovery unit is
not an incinerator, a waste-burning kiln, an energy recovery unit or a
small, remote incinerator under this subpart.''
Clarifying language was added to the HCl row of 40 CFR
part 60, subpart DDDD Table 8. Compliance method text was changed from
``. . . if a wet scrubber is not used'' to ``. . . if a wet scrubber or
dry scrubber is not used.''
Text in Sec. 60.2165(o) was corrected from ``. . . you
must use a continuous automated sampling system. . .'' to ``. . . you
may substitute use of a continuous automated sampling system for the
carbon monoxide annual performance test.''
Revise the definition of ``Oxygen trim system'' to include
draft controller and to clarify that it is a system that maintains the
desired excess air level over the operating load range.
Revise the definition of ``Reconstruction'' in both
subparts to reflect the correct criterion that reconstruction begins on
or after August 7, 2013.
Renumbered equations in 40 CFR part 60, subpart DDDD to be
in sequence within the subpart instead of being a continuation with 40
CFR part 60, subpart CCCC.
Revised paragraphs Sec. Sec. 60.2030(c), 60.2210(h),
60.2220(d), 60.2235, 60.2770(h), 60.2780(d) and 60.2795 to reflect the
most recent electronic reporting guidance available and to further
clarify reporting requirements.
3. Clarifications
Since publication of the February 7, 2013 final CISWI rule, the EPA
has received some stakeholder questions and requests for clarification
on certain rule provisions. We are not proposing regulatory language
changes for the following items, but are providing some clarification
to these questions:
Mass balance as operating limits for units without certain
control devices--A stakeholder has asked for clarification on whether a
mass balance could be used as an operating parameter, and whether this
must be measured as a 30-day rolling average instead of taking a
monthly sample. Furthermore, the stakeholder also asked whether the
material balance allows them to waive annual stack testing. The EPA
disagrees that mass balance operating parameters replace annual stack
testing. Stack testing and operating parameters work in tandem to
ensure ongoing compliance with the standards. We do, however, accept
that mass balance could be an allowable operating parameter in cases
where no control device is needed to meet the pollutant's specific
emission limit applicable to the unit. We also point out that any
source may request a different averaging time that is appropriate for
their source and operating parameter as provided for in 40 CFR 60.2115.
Clarification on who the ``EPA Administrator'' is and who
to contact for requests for averaging times, qualifying facility
notifications, etc. We have received questions on how to contact the
Administrator to submit notifications, reports and requests. The
contact information is given in the General Provisions, under 40 CFR
60.4, and has addresses listed by EPA Regional Offices.
E. Environmental, Energy and Economic Impacts
Today's action requests comment on some provisions and makes
technical and clarifying corrections, but does not propose substantive
changes to the February 7, 2013, final CISWI rule (78 FR 9112). As
such, there are no environmental, energy or economic impacts associated
with today's proposed action. The impacts associated with the CISWI
rule were discussed in detail in the February 7, 2013, final CISWI rule
document.
[[Page 3025]]
F. Affirmative Defense for Violation of Emission Standards During
Malfunction
In several prior CAA section 112 and CAA section 129 rules,
including this rule, the EPA included an affirmative defense to civil
penalties for violations caused by malfunctions in an effort to create
a system that incorporates some flexibility, recognizing that there is
a tension, inherent in many types of air regulation, to ensure adequate
compliance while simultaneously recognizing that despite the most
diligent of efforts, emission standards may be violated under
circumstances entirely beyond the control of the source. Although the
EPA recognized that its case-by-case enforcement discretion provides
sufficient flexibility in these circumstances, it included the
affirmative defense to provide a more formalized approach and more
regulatory clarity. See Weyerhaeuser Co. v. Costle, 590 F.2d 1011,
1057-58 (D.C. Cir. 1978) (holding that an informal case-by-case
enforcement discretion approach is adequate); but see Marathon Oil Co.
v. EPA, 564 F.2d 1253, 1272-73 (9th Cir. 1977) (requiring a more
formalized approach to consideration of ``upsets beyond the control of
the permit holder.''). Under the EPA's regulatory affirmative defense
provisions, if a source could demonstrate in a judicial or
administrative proceeding that it had met the requirements of the
affirmative defense in the regulation, civil penalties would not be
assessed. Recently, the United States Court of Appeals for the District
of Columbia Circuit vacated an affirmative defense in one of the EPA's
CAA section 112 regulations. NRDC v. EPA, 749 F.3d 1055 (D.C. Cir.,
2014) (vacating affirmative defense provisions in CAA section 112 rule
establishing emission standards for Portland cement kilns). 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.''' See NRDC, 2014 U.S.
App. LEXIS 7281 at *21 (``[U]nder this statute, deciding whether
penalties are `appropriate' . . . is a job for the courts, not EPA.'').
In light of NRDC, the EPA is proposing to remove the regulatory
affirmative defense provision in the current rule.
In the event that a source fails to comply with the applicable CAA
section 129 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 129 standard was, in fact, ``sudden, infrequent, not
reasonably preventable'' and was not instead ``caused in part by poor
maintenance or careless operation.'' 40 CFR 60.2 (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. Cf. NRDC at 1064
(arguments that violations were caused by unavoidable technology
failure can be made to the courts in future civil cases when the issue
arises). Similarly, the presiding officer in an administrative
proceeding can consider any defense raised and determine whether
administrative penalties are appropriate.
II 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 and was
therefore not submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
for review.
B. Paperwork Reduction Act
This action does not impose an information collection burden under
the PRA. This action is believed to result in no changes to the
information collection requirements of the February 2013 final CISWI
rule, so that the information collection estimate of project cost and
hour burden from the final CISWI rule have not been revised. However,
the Office of Managment and Budget (OMB) has previously approved the
information collection activities contained in the existing regulations
(40 CFR part 60, subparts CCCC and DDDD) under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), 44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq., and EPA
Information Collection Request (ICR) number 2384.05 for subpart CCCC,
40 CFR part 60 and EPA ICR number 2385.05 for subpart DDDD have been
assigned. 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 (RFA) generally requires an agency
to prepare a regulatory flexibility analysis of any rule subject to
notice and comment rulemaking requirements under the Administrative
Procedures Act (APA) 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. (SISNOSE). 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 that 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. In making
this determination, the impact of concern is any significant adverse
economic impact on small entities. An agency may certify that a rule
will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of
small entities if the rule relieves regulatory burden, has no net
burden or otherwise has a positive economic effect on the small
entities subject to the rule. This proposed rule will not impose any
new requirements on any entities because it does not impose any
additional regulatory requirements relative to those specified in the
February 2013 final CISWI rule. The February 2013 final CISWI rule was
certified as not having a significant economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities. We have therefore concluded that this action
will have no net regulatory burden for all directly regulated small
entities.
D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
This action does not contain any unfunded mandate as described in
UMRA, 2 U.S.C. 1531-1538, and does not significantly or uniquely affect
small governments. This rule proposes amendments to the February 2013
final CISWI rule provisions, but they are mainly clarifications to
existing rule
[[Page 3026]]
language to aid in implementation, or are being made to maintain
consistency with other, more recent, regulatory actions. Therefore, the
action imposes no enforceable duty on any state, local or tribal
governments or the private sector. Therefore, this rule is not subject
to the requirements of sections 202 or 205 of UMRA.
This action seeks comment on specific aspects of the final rule for
CISWI units and proposes minor changes to the rule to correct and
clarify implementation issues raised by stakeholders.
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.
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). The EPA is not
aware of any CISWI in Indian country or owned or operated by Indian
tribal governments. The CISWI aspects of this rule may, however, invoke
minor indirect tribal implications to the extent that entities
generating solid wastes on tribal lands could be affected. 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 as applying to those
regulatory actions that concern environmental health or safety risks
that the EPA has reason to believe may disproportionately affect
children, per the definition of ``covered regulatory action'' in
section 2-202 of the Executive Order. This action is not subject to
Executive Order 13045 because it does not concern an environmental
health risk or safety risk.
H. Executive Order 13211: Actions Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use
This action is not subject to Executive Order 13211, because it is
not a significant regulatory action under Executive Order 12866.
I. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act
This rulemaking does not involve technical standards.
J. Executive Order 12898: Federal Actions To Address Environmental
Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations
The EPA believes the human health or environmental risk addressed
by this action will not have potential disproportionately high and
adverse human health or environmental effects on minority, low-income
or indigenous populations because it does not affect the level of
protection provided to human health or the environment. The proposed
corrections do not relax the control measures on sources regulated by
the February 2013 final CISWI rule, and, therefore, will not cause
emissions increases from these sources. The February 2013 final CISWI
rule will reduce emissions of all the listed toxics emitted from this
source, thereby helping to further ensure against any
disproportionately high and adverse human health or environmental
effects on minority or low-income populations.

Emission Limitations and Operating Limits
Sec. 60.2105 What emission limitations must I meet and by when?
(a) You must meet the emission limitations for each CISWI unit,
including bypass stack or vent, specified in table 1 of this subpart or
tables 5 through 8 of this subpart by the applicable date in Sec.
60.2140. You must be in compliance with the emission limitations of
this subpart that apply to you at all times.
(b) An incinerator or air curtain incinerator that commenced
construction after November 30, 1999, but no later than June 4, 2010,
or that commenced reconstruction or modification on or after June 1,
2001 but no later than August 7, 2013, must continue to meet the
emission limits in table 1 of this subpart for units in the incinerator
subcategory and Sec. 60.2250 of this subpart for air curtain
incinerators until the units become subject to the requirements of an
approved state plan or federal plan that implements subpart DDDD of
this part (Emission Guidelines and Compliance Times for Commercial and
Industrial Solid Waste Incineration Units).
Sec. 60.2110 What operating limits must I meet and by when?
(a) If you use a wet scrubber(s) to comply with the emission
limitations, you must establish operating limits for up to four
operating parameters (as specified in table 2 of this subpart) as
described in paragraphs (a)(1) through (4) of this section during the
initial performance test.
(1) Maximum charge rate, calculated using one of the two different
procedures in paragraph (a)(1)(i) or (ii), as appropriate.
(i) For continuous and intermittent units, maximum charge rate is
110 percent of the average charge rate measured during the most recent
performance test demonstrating compliance with all applicable emission
limitations.
(ii) For batch units, maximum charge rate is 110 percent of the
daily charge rate measured during the most recent performance test
demonstrating compliance with all applicable emission limitations.
(2) Minimum pressure drop across the wet particulate matter
scrubber, which is calculated as the lowest 1-hour average pressure
drop across the wet scrubber measured during the most recent
performance test demonstrating compliance with the particulate matter
emission limitations; or minimum amperage to the wet scrubber, which is
calculated as the lowest 1-hour average amperage to the wet scrubber
measured during the most recent performance test demonstrating
compliance with the particulate matter emission limitations.
(3) Minimum scrubber liquid flow rate, which is calculated as the
lowest 1-hour average liquid flow rate at the inlet to the wet acid gas
or particulate matter scrubber measured during the most recent
performance test demonstrating compliance with all applicable emission
limitations.
[[Page 3031]]
(4) Minimum scrubber liquor pH, which is calculated as the lowest
1-hour average liquor pH at the inlet to the wet acid gas scrubber
measured during the most recent performance test demonstrating
compliance with the HCl emission limitation.
(b) You must meet the operating limits established during the
initial performance test 60 days after your CISWI unit reaches the
charge rate at which it will operate, but no later than 180 days after
its initial startup.
(c) If you use a fabric filter to comply with the emission
limitations, you must operate each fabric filter system such that the
bag leak detection system alarm does not sound more than 5 percent of
the operating time during a 6-month period. In calculating this
operating time percentage, if inspection of the fabric filter
demonstrates that no corrective action is required, no alarm time is
counted. If corrective action is required, each alarm shall be counted
as a minimum of 1 hour. If you take longer than 1 hour to initiate
corrective action, the alarm time shall be counted as the actual amount
of time taken by you to initiate corrective action.
(d) If you use an electrostatic precipitator to comply with the
emission limitations, you must measure the (secondary) voltage and
amperage of the electrostatic precipitator collection plates during the
particulate matter performance test. Calculate the average electric
power value (secondary voltage x secondary current = secondary electric
power) for each test run. The operating limit for the electrostatic
precipitator is calculated as the lowest 1-hour average secondary
electric power measured during the most recent performance test
demonstrating compliance with the particulate matter emission
limitations.
(e) If you use activated carbon sorbent injection to comply with
the emission limitations, you must measure the sorbent flow rate during
the performance testing. The operating limit for the carbon sorbent
injection is calculated as the lowest 1-hour average sorbent flow rate
measured during the most recent performance test demonstrating
compliance with the mercury emission limitations. For energy recovery
units, when your unit operates at lower loads, multiply your sorbent
injection rate by the load fraction, as defined in this subpart, to
determine the required injection rate (e.g., for 50 percent load,
multiply the injection rate operating limit by 0.5).
(f) If you use selective noncatalytic reduction to comply with the
emission limitations, you must measure the charge rate, the secondary
chamber temperature (if applicable to your CISWI unit), and the reagent
flow rate during the nitrogen oxides performance testing. The operating
limits for the selective noncatalytic reduction are calculated as the
highest 1-hour average charge rate, lower secondary chamber
temperature, and lowest reagent flow rate measured during the most
recent performance test demonstrating compliance with the nitrogen
oxides emission limitations.
(g) If you use a dry scrubber to comply with the emission
limitations, you must measure the injection rate of each sorbent during
the performance testing. The operating limit for the injection rate of
each sorbent is calculated as the lowest 1-hour average injection rate
or each sorbent measured during the most recent performance test
demonstrating compliance with the hydrogen chloride emission
limitations. For energy recovery units, when your unit operates at
lower loads, multiply your sorbent injection rate by the load fraction,
as defined in this subpart, to determine the required injection rate
(e.g., for 50 percent load, multiply the injection rate operating limit
by 0.5).
(h) If you do not use a wet scrubber, electrostatic precipitator,
or fabric filter to comply with the emission limitations, and if you do
not determine compliance with your particulate matter emission
limitation with a particulate matter CEMS, you must maintain opacity to
less than or equal to 10 percent opacity (1-hour block average).
(i) If you use a PM CPMS to demonstrate compliance, you must
establish your PM CPMS operating limit and determine compliance with it
according to paragraphs (i)(1) through (5) of this section.
(1) Determine your operating limit as the average PM CPMS output
value recorded during the performance test or at a PM CPMS output value
corresponding to 75 percent of the emission limit if your PM
performance test demonstrates compliance below 75 percent of the
emission limit. You must verify an existing or establish a new
operating limit after each repeated performance test. 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.
(i) Your PM CPMS must provide a 4-20 milliamp output, or digital
equivalent, and the establishment of its relationship to manual
reference method measurements must be determined in units of milliamps.
(ii) Your PM CPMS operating range must be capable of reading PM
concentrations from zero to a level equivalent to at least two 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 two times your allowable emission limit.
(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).
(2) If the average of your three PM performance test runs are 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
output values corresponding to the three compliance test runs, and the
average PM concentration from the Method 5 or performance test with the
procedures in (i)(1)through (5) of this section.
(i) Determine your instrument zero output with one of the following
procedures:
(A) 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.
(B) Zero point data for extractive instruments should be obtained
by removing the extractive probe from the stack and drawing in clean
ambient air.
(C) The zero point can also can be established obtained 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.
(D) If none of the steps in paragraphs (i)(2)(i)(A) through
(i)(2)(i)(C) of this section are possible, you must use a zero output
value provided by the manufacturer.
(ii) Determine your PM CPMS instrument average in milliamps, or the
digital equivalent, and the average of your corresponding three PM
compliance test runs, using equation 1.
[[Page 3032]]
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP21JA15.008
Where:
X1 = the PM CPMS output 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 instrument zero expressed in milliamps, or the
digital equivalent, your three run average PM CPMS milliamp value, or
its digital equivalent, and your three run average PM concentration
from your three compliance tests, determine a relationship of mg/dscm
per milliamp or digital signal equivalent with equation 2.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP21JA15.009
Where:
R = the relative mg/dscm per milliamp or digital equivalent for your
PM CPMS,
Y1 = the three run average mg/dscm PM concentration,
X1 = the three run average milliamp or digital signal
output from you PM CPMS, and
z = the milliamp or digital signal equivalent of your instrument
zero determined from (2)(i).
(iv) Determine your source specific 30-day rolling average
operating limit using the mg/dscm per milliamp or digital value from
equation 2 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] TP21JA15.010
Where:
Ol = the operating limit for your PM CPMS on a 30-day
rolling average, in milliamps or their digital signal equivalent.
L = your source emission limit expressed in mg/dscm,
z = your instrument zero in milliamps or the digital equivalent,
determined from (2)(i), and
R = the relative mg/dscm per milliamp or digital signal output
equivalent for your PM CPMS, from equation 2.
(3) 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 or digital signal
output corresponding to your three PM performance test runs that
demonstrate compliance with the emission limit using equation 4 and you
must submit all compliance test and PM CPMS data according to the
reporting requirements in paragraph (i)(5) of this section.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP21JA15.011
Where:
X1 = the PM CPMS data points for all runs i,
n = the number of data points, and
Oh = your site specific operating limit, in milliamps or
digital signal equivalent.
(4) To determine continuous compliance, you must record the PM CPMS
output data for all periods when the process is operating and the PM
CPMS 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 (e.g., milliamps or
digital signal bits, PM concentration, raw data signal) on a 30-day
rolling average basis.
(5) 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 or digital signal value equivalent to the instrument zero
output, technique by which this zero value was determined, and the
average milliamp or digital signals corresponding to each PM compliance
test run.

activated carbon injection, selective noncatalytic reduction, an
electrostatic precipitator, or a dry scrubber to comply with the
emission limitations?
If you use an air pollution control device other than a wet
scrubber, activated carbon injection, selective noncatalytic reduction,
fabric filter, an electrostatic precipitator, or a dry scrubber or
limit emissions in some other manner, including material balances, to
comply with the emission limitations under Sec. 60.2105, you must
petition the EPA Administrator for specific operating limits to be

(a) All performance tests must consist of a minimum of three test
runs conducted under conditions representative of normal operations.
(b) You must document that the waste burned during the performance

Method 3A or 3B of appendix A of this part must be used simultaneously
with each method.
(f) All pollutant concentrations, except for opacity, must be
adjusted to 7 percent oxygen using equation 5 of this section:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP21JA15.012
Where:
Cadj = pollutant concentration adjusted to 7 percent
oxygen;
Cmeas = pollutant concentration measured on a dry
basis;
(20.9-7) = 20.9 percent oxygen-7 percent oxygen (defined oxygen
correction basis);
20.9 = oxygen concentration in air, percent; and
%O2 = oxygen concentration measured on a dry basis,
percent.
(g) You must determine dioxins/furans toxic equivalency by
following the procedures in paragraphs (g)(1) through (4) of this

or split to reduce the number of isomers not meeting identification
criteria 1 or 7 of Section 5.3.2.5.)
(3) For each dioxin/furan (tetra-through octa-chlorinated) isomer
measured in accordance with paragraph (g)(1) and (2) of this section,
multiply the isomer concentration by its corresponding toxic
equivalency factor specified in table 3 of this subpart.
(4) Sum the products calculated in accordance with paragraph (g)(3)
of this section to obtain the total concentration of dioxins/furans

You use results of performance tests to demonstrate compliance with
the emission limitations in table 1 of this subpart or tables 5 through
8 of this subpart.
Initial Compliance Requirements
Sec. 60.2135 How do I demonstrate initial compliance with the
emission limitations and establish the operating limits?
You must conduct a performance test, as required under Sec. Sec.
60.2125 and 60.2105 to determine compliance with the emission
limitations in table 1 of this subpart or tables 5 through 8 of this
subpart, to establish compliance with any opacity operating limit in
Sec. 60.2110, to establish the kiln-specific emission limit in Sec.
60.2145(y), as applicable, and to establish operating limits using the
procedures in Sec. Sec. 60.2110 or 60.2115. The performance test must
be conducted using the test methods listed in table 1 of this subpart
or tables 5 through 8 of this subpart and the procedures in Sec.
60.2125. The use of the bypass stack during a performance test shall
invalidate the performance test. You must conduct a performance
evaluation of each continuous monitoring system within 60 days of
installation of the monitoring system.
Sec. 60.2140 By what date must I conduct the initial performance
test?
(a) The initial performance test must be conducted within 60 days
after your CISWI unit reaches the charge rate at which it will operate,
but no later than 180 days after its initial startup.
(b) If you commence or recommence combusting a solid waste at an
existing combustion unit at any commercial or industrial facility, and
you conducted a test consistent with the provisions of this subpart
while combusting the solid waste within the 6 months preceding the
reintroduction of that solid waste in the combustion chamber, you do
not need to retest until 6 months from the date you reintroduce that
solid waste.
[[Page 3034]]
(c) If you commence or recommence combusting a solid waste at an
existing combustion unit at any commercial or industrial facility and
you have not conducted a performance test consistent with the
provisions of this subpart while combusting the solid waste within the
6 months preceding the reintroduction of that solid waste in the
combustion chamber, you must conduct a performance test within 60 days
from the date you reintroduce that solid waste.

conducted within 60 days after installation of the control device and
the associated CISWI unit reaches the charge rate at which it will
operate, but no later than 180 days after the device's initial startup.
(b) Within 10 operating days following an air pollution control
device inspection, all necessary repairs must be completed unless the
owner or operator obtains written approval from the state agency
establishing a date whereby all necessary repairs of the designated
facility must be completed.
Continuous Compliance Requirements
Sec. 60.2145 How do I demonstrate continuous compliance with the
emission limitations and the operating limits?
(a) Compliance with standards.
(1) The emission standards and operating requirements set forth in
this subpart apply at all times.
(2) If you cease combusting solid waste, you may opt to remain
subject to the provisions of this subpart. Consistent with the
definition of CISWI unit, you are subject to the requirements of this
subpart at least 6 months following the last date of solid waste
combustion. Solid waste combustion is ceased when solid waste is not in
the combustion chamber (i.e., the solid waste feed to the combustor has
been cut off for a period of time not less than the solid waste
residence time).
(3) If you cease combusting solid waste, you must be in compliance
with any newly applicable standards on the effective date of the waste-
to-fuel switch. The effective date of the waste-to-fuel switch is a
date selected by you, that must be at least 6 months from the date that
you ceased combusting solid waste, consistent with Sec. 60.2145(a)(2).
Your source must remain in compliance with this subpart until the
effective date of the waste-to-fuel switch.
(4) If you own or operate an existing commercial or industrial
combustion unit that combusted a fuel or non-waste material, and you
commence or recommence combustion of solid waste, you are subject to
the provisions of this subpart as of the first day you introduce or
reintroduce solid waste to the combustion chamber, and this date
constitutes the effective date of the fuel-to-waste switch. You must
complete all initial compliance demonstrations for any section 112
standards that are applicable to your facility before you commence or
recommence combustion of solid waste. You must provide 30 days prior
notice of the effective date of the waste-to-fuel switch. The
notification must identify:
(i) The name of the owner or operator of the CISWI unit, the
location of the source, the emissions unit(s) that will cease burning
solid waste, and the date of the notice;
(ii) The currently applicable subcategory under this subpart, and
any 40 CFR part 63 subpart and subcategory that will be applicable
after you cease combusting solid waste;
(iii) The fuel(s), non-waste material(s) and solid waste(s) the
CISWI unit is currently combusting and has combusted over the past 6
months, and the fuel(s) or non-waste materials the unit will commence
combusting;
(iv) The date on which you became subject to the currently
applicable emission limits;
(v) The date upon which you will cease combusting solid waste, and
the date (if different) that you intend for any new requirements to
become applicable (i.e., the effective date of the waste-to-fuel
switch), consistent with paragraphs (a)(2) and (3)of this section.
(5) All air pollution control equipment necessary for compliance
with any newly applicable emissions limits which apply as a result of
the cessation or commencement or recommencement of combusting solid
waste must be installed and operational as of the effective date of the
waste-to-fuel, or fuel-to-waste switch.
(6) All monitoring systems necessary for compliance with any newly
applicable monitoring requirements which apply as a result of the
cessation or commencement or recommencement of combusting solid waste
must be installed and operational as of the effective date of the
waste-to-fuel, or fuel-to-waste switch. All calibration and drift
checks must be performed as of the effective date of the waste-to-fuel,
or fuel-to-waste switch. Relative accuracy tests must be performed as
of the performance test deadline for PM CEMS (if PM CEMS are elected to
demonstrate continuous compliance with the particulate matter emission
limits). Relative accuracy testing for other CEMS need not be repeated
if that testing was previously performed consistent with Clean Air Act
section 112 monitoring requirements or monitoring requirements under
this subpart.
(b) You must conduct an annual performance test for the pollutants
listed in table 1 of this subpart or tables 5 through 8 of this subpart
and opacity for each CISWI unit as required under Sec. 60.2125. The
annual performance test must be conducted using the test methods listed
in table 1 of this subpart or tables 5 through 8 of this subpart and
the procedures in Sec. 60.2125. Annual performance tests are not
required if you use CEMS or continuous opacity monitoring systems to
determine compliance.
(c) You must continuously monitor the operating parameters
specified in Sec. 60.2110 or established under Sec. 60.2115 and as
specified in Sec. 60.2170. Use 3-hour block average values to
determine compliance (except for baghouse leak detection system alarms)
unless a different averaging period is established under Sec. 60.2115
or, for energy recovery units, where the averaging time for each
operating parameter is a 30-day rolling, calculated each hour as the
average of the previous 720 operating hours. Operation above the
established maximum, below the established minimum, or outside the
allowable range of operating limits specified in paragraph (a) of this
section constitutes a deviation from your operating limits established
under this subpart, except during performance tests conducted to
determine compliance with the emission and operating limits or to
establish new operating limits. Operating limits are confirmed or
reestablished during performance tests.
(d) You must burn only the same types of waste and fuels used to
establish subcategory applicability (for energy recovery units) and
operating limits during the performance test.
(e) For energy recovery units, incinerators, and small remote
units, you must perform an annual visual emissions test for ash
handling.

7 percent oxygen, and are measured at stack oxygen content. You must
demonstrate initial compliance with the carbon monoxide emissions limit
using a 30-day rolling average of these 1-hour arithmetic average
emission concentrations, including CEMS data during startup and
shutdown as defined in this subpart, calculated using equation 19-19 in

heat input rates greater than or equal to 250 MMBtu/hr may elect to
demonstrate continuous compliance with the particulate matter emissions
limit using a particulate matter CEMS according to the procedures in
Sec. 60.2165(n) instead of the particulate matter continuous parameter
monitoring system (CPMS) specified in Sec. 60.2145. Coal and liquid/
gas energy recovery units with annual average heat input rates less
than 250 MMBtu/hr, incinerators, and small remote incinerators may also
elect to demonstrate compliance using a particulate matter CEMS
according to the procedures in Sec. 60.2165(n) instead of particulate
matter testing with EPA Method 5 at 40 CFR part 60, appendix A-3 and,
if applicable, the continuous opacity monitoring requirements in
paragraph (i) of this section.
(i) For energy recovery units with annual average heat input rates
greater than or equal to 10 MMBtu/hour and less than 250 MMBtu/hr, you
must install, operate, certify and maintain a continuous opacity
monitoring system (COMS) according to the procedures in Sec. 60.2165.
(j) For waste-burning kilns, you must conduct an annual performance
test for cadmium, lead, dioxins/furans and hydrogen chloride as listed
in table 7 of this subpart. You must determine compliance with hydrogen
chloride using a hydrogen chloride CEMS if you do not use an acid gas
wet scrubber or dry scrubber. You must determine compliance with
nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, and carbon monoxide using CEMS. You
must determine compliance with particulate matter using CPMS. You must
determine compliance with the mercury emissions limit using a mercury
CEMS according to the following requirements:
(1) Operate a CEMS system in accordance with performance
specification 12A of 40 CFR part 60, appendix B or a sorbent trap based
integrated monitor in accordance with performance specification 12B of
40 CFR part 60, appendix B. The duration of the performance test must
be a calendar month. For each calendar month in which the waste-burning
kiln operates, hourly mercury concentration data, and stack gas
volumetric flow rate data must be obtained. You must demonstrate
compliance with the mercury emissions limit using a 30-day rolling
average of these 1-hour mercury concentrations, including CEMS data
during startup and shutdown as defined in this subpart, calculated
using equation 19-19 in section 12.4.1 of EPA Reference Method 19 at 40
CFR part 60, appendix A-7 of this part. CEMS data during startup and
shutdown, as defined in this subpart, are not corrected to 7 percent
oxygen, and are measured at stack oxygen content.
(2) Owners or operators using a mercury CEMS must install, operate,
calibrate, and maintain an instrument for continuously measuring and
recording the mercury mass emissions rate to the atmosphere according
to the requirements of performance specifications 6 and 12A of 40 CFR
part 60, appendix B, and quality assurance procedure 6 of 40 CFR part
60, appendix F.
(3) The owner or operator of a waste-burning kiln must demonstrate
initial compliance by operating a mercury CEMS while the raw mill of
the in-line kiln/raw mill is operating under normal conditions and
including at least one period when the raw mill is off.
(k) If you use an air pollution control device to meet the emission
limitations in this subpart, you must conduct an initial and annual
inspection of the air pollution control device. The inspection must
include, at a minimum, the following:
(1) Inspect air pollution control device(s) for proper operation.
(2) Develop a site-specific monitoring plan according to the

evaluation of the pressure monitoring system in accordance with your
monitoring plan and confirm that the pressure monitoring system
continues to meet the performance requirements in your monitoring plan.
Alternatively, install and verify the operation of a new pressure
sensor.
(o) If you have an operating limit that requires a pH monitoring

test but no less frequently than quarterly.
(p) If you have an operating limit that requires a secondary
electric power monitoring system for an electrostatic precipitator, you
must meet the requirements in paragraphs (l) and (p)(1) through (2) of
this section.
(1) Install sensors to measure (secondary) voltage and current to
the precipitator collection plates.
(2) Conduct a performance evaluation of the electric power

(s) For facilities using a CEMS to demonstrate compliance with the
sulfur dioxide emission limit, compliance with the sulfur dioxide
emission limit may be demonstrated by using the CEMS specified in Sec.
60.2165 to measure sulfur dioxide. CEMS data during startup and
shutdown, as defined in this subpart, are not corrected to 7 percent
oxygen, and are measured at stack oxygen content. You must calculate a
30-day rolling average of the 1-hour arithmetic average emission
concentrations, including CEMS data during startup and shutdown as
defined in this subpart, calculated using equation 19-19 in section
12.4.1 of EPA Reference Method 19 at 40 CFR part 60, Appendix A-7 of

that have actual inlet emissions less than 100 parts per million dry
volume, the relative accuracy criterion for inlet sulfur dioxide CEMS
should be no greater than 20 percent of the mean value of the reference
method test data in terms of the units of the emission standard, or 5
parts per million dry volume absolute value of the mean difference
between the reference method and the CEMS, whichever is greater.
(1) During each relative accuracy test run of the CEMS required by
performance specification 2 in appendix B of this part, collect sulfur
dioxide and oxygen (or carbon dioxide) data concurrently (or within a
30- to 60-minute period) with both the CEMS and the test methods
specified in paragraphs (s)(1)(i) and (ii) of this section.

(2) The span value of the CEMS at the inlet to the sulfur dioxide
control device must be 125 percent of the maximum estimated hourly
potential sulfur dioxide emissions of the unit subject to this rule.
The span value of the CEMS at the outlet of the sulfur dioxide control
device must be 50 percent of the maximum estimated hourly potential
sulfur dioxide emissions of the unit subject to this rule.
(3) Conduct accuracy determinations quarterly and calibration drift

calculate a 30-day rolling average of the 1-hour arithmetic average
emission concentrations, including
[[Page 3037]]
CEMS data during startup and shutdown as defined in this subpart, using
equation 19-19 in section 12.4.1 of EPA Reference Method 19 at 40 CFR
part 60, appendix A-7 of this part. The nitrogen oxides CEMS must be
operated according to performance specification 2 in appendix B of this
part and must follow the procedures and methods specified in paragraphs
(t)(1) through (5) of this section.
(1) During each relative accuracy test run of the CEMS required by
performance specification 2 of appendix B of this part, collect
nitrogen oxides and oxygen (or carbon dioxide) data concurrently (or
within a 30- to 60-minute period) with both the CEMS and the test
methods specified in paragraphs (t)(1)(i) and (ii) of this section.
(i) For nitrogen oxides, EPA Reference Method 7 or 7E at 40 CFR
part 60, appendix A-4 must be used.

at 40 CFR part 60, appendix A-3, or as an alternative ANSI/ASME PTC 19-
10.1981 (incorporated by reference, see Sec. 60.17), as applicable,
must be used.
(2) The span value of the continuous emission monitoring system
must be 125 percent of the maximum estimated hourly potential nitrogen
oxide emissions of the unit.
(3) Conduct accuracy determinations quarterly and calibration drift
tests daily in accordance with procedure 1 in appendix F of this part.
(4) The owner or operator of an affected facility may request that
compliance with the nitrogen oxides emission limit be determined using
carbon dioxide measurements corrected to an equivalent of 7 percent
oxygen. If carbon dioxide is selected for use in diluent corrections,
the relationship between oxygen and carbon dioxide levels must be
established during the initial performance test according to the
procedures and methods specified in paragraphs (t)(4)(i) through
(t)(4)(iv) of this section. This relationship may be re-established
during performance compliance tests.
(i) The fuel factor equation in Method 3B must be used to determine
the relationship between oxygen and carbon dioxide at a sampling
location. Method 3A or 3B, or as an alternative ANSI/ASME PTC 19.10-
1981 (incorporated by reference, see Sec. 60.17), as applicable, must
be used to determine the oxygen concentration at the same location as
the carbon dioxide monitor.
(ii) Samples must be taken for at least 30 minutes in each hour.

12.4.1 of EPA Reference Method 19 at 40 CFR part 60, appendix A-7 of
this part. CEMS data during startup and shutdown, as defined in the
subpart, are not corrected to 7 percent oxygen, and are measured at
stack oxygen content.
(2) Operate all CEMS in accordance with the applicable procedures
under appendices B and F of this part.

greater than or equal to 250 MMBtu/hour and waste-burning kilns, you
must install, calibrate, maintain, and operate a PM CPMS and record the
output of the system as specified in paragraphs (x)(1) through (x)(8)
of this section. For other energy recovery units, you may elect to use
PM CPMS operated in accordance with this section. PM CPMS are suitable
in lieu of using other CMS for monitoring PM compliance (e.g., bag leak
detectors, ESP secondary power, PM scrubber pressure).
(1) Install, calibrate, operate, and maintain your PM CPMS
according to the procedures in your approved site-specific monitoring
plan developed in accordance with paragraphs (l) and (x)(1)(i) through
(x)(1)(iii) of this section.
(i) The operating principle of the PM CPMS must be based on in-
stack or extractive light scatter, light scintillation, beta
attenuation, or mass accumulation detection of the exhaust gas or
representative sample. The reportable measurement output from the PM
CPMS must be expressed as milliamps.
(ii) The PM CPMS must have a cycle time (i.e., period required to
complete sampling, measurement, and reporting for each measurement) no
longer than 60 minutes.
(iii) The PM CPMS must be capable of detecting and responding to
particulate matter concentrations increments no greater than 0.5 mg/
actual cubic meter.
(2) During the initial performance test or any such subsequent
performance test that demonstrates compliance with the PM limit, you
must adjust the site-specific operating limit in accordance with the
results of the performance test according to the procedures specified

hourly average PM CPMS output collected during all energy recovery unit
or waste-burning kiln operating hours data (milliamps or their digital
equivalent).
(5) You must collect data using the PM CPMS at all times the energy
recovery unit or waste-burning kiln is operating and at the intervals
specified in paragraph (x)(1)(ii) of this section, except for periods
of monitoring system malfunctions, repairs associated with monitoring
system malfunctions, required monitoring system quality assurance or
quality control activities (including, as applicable, calibration
checks and required zero and span adjustments), and any scheduled
maintenance as defined in your site-specific monitoring plan.
(6) You must use all the data collected during all energy recovery
unit or waste-burning kiln operating hours in assessing the compliance
with your operating limit except:
(i) Any data collected during monitoring system malfunctions,
repairs associated with monitoring system
[[Page 3038]]
malfunctions, or required monitoring system quality assurance or
quality control activities conducted during monitoring system
malfunctions are not used in calculations (report any such periods in
your annual deviation report);
(ii) Any data collected during periods when the monitoring system
is out of control as specified in your site-specific monitoring plan,
repairs associated with periods when the monitoring system is out of
control, or required monitoring system quality assurance or quality
control activities conducted during out-of-control periods are not used
in calculations (report emissions or operating levels and report any
such periods in your annual deviation report);
(iii) Any PM CPMS data recorded during periods of CEMS data during
startup and shutdown, as defined in this subpart.
(7) You must record and make available upon request results of PM
CPMS system performance audits, as well as the dates and duration of
periods from when the PM CPMS is out of control until completion of the
corrective actions necessary to return the PM CPMS to operation
consistent with your site-specific monitoring plan.
(8) For any deviation of the 30-day rolling average PM CPMS average
value from the established operating parameter limit, you must:
(i) Within 48 hours of the deviation, visually inspect the air
pollution control device;
(ii) If inspection of the air pollution control device identifies
the cause of the deviation, take corrective action as soon as possible
and return the PM CPMS measurement to within the established value; and
(iii) Within 30 days of the deviation or at the time of the annual
compliance test, whichever comes first, conduct a PM emissions
compliance test to determine compliance with the PM emissions limit and
to verify. Within 45 days of the deviation, you must re-establish the
CPMS operating limit. You are not required to conduct additional
testing for any deviations that occur between the time of the original
deviation and the PM emissions compliance test required under this
paragraph.
(iv) PM CPMS deviations leading to more than four required
performance tests in a 12-month process operating period (rolling
monthly) constitute a violation of this subpart.
(y) When there is an alkali bypass and/or an in-line coal mill that
exhaust emissions through a separate stack(s), the combined emissions
are subject to the emission limits applicable to waste-burning kilns.
To determine the kiln-specific emission limit for demonstrating
compliance, you must:
(1) Calculate a kiln-specific emission limit using equation 6:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP21JA15.013
Where:
Cks = Kiln stack concentration (ppmvd, mg/dscm, ng/
dscm, depending on pollutant. Each corrected to 7% O2.)
Qab = Alkali bypass flow rate (volume/hr)
Cab = Alkali bypass concentration (ppmvd, mg/dscm,
ng/dscm, depending on pollutant. Each corrected to 7%
O2.)
Qcm = In-line coal mill flow rate (volume/hr)
Ccm = In-line coal mill concentration (ppmvd, mg/
dscm, ng/dscm, depending on pollutant. Each corrected to 7%
O2.)

applicable, demonstrates that the emission level for the pollutant is
no greater than the emission level specified in paragraph (a)(3)(i) or
(a)(3)(ii) of this section, as applicable, and you are not required to
conduct a performance test for the pollutant in response to a request
by the Administrator in paragraph (a)(1) of this section or a process
change in paragraph (a)(2) of this section, you may elect to skip
conducting a performance test for the pollutant for the next 2 years.
You must conduct a performance test for the pollutant during the third
year and no more than 37 months following the previous performance test
for the pollutant. For cadmium and lead, both cadmium and lead must be
emitted at emission levels no greater than their respective emission

the three 1-hour observations periods.
(4) If you are conducting less frequent testing for a pollutant as
provided in paragraph (a)(3) of this section and a subsequent
performance test for the pollutant indicates that your CISWI unit does
not meet the emission level specified in paragraph (a)(3)(i) or
(a)(3)(ii) of this section, as applicable, you must conduct annual
performance tests for the pollutant according to the schedule specified
in paragraph (a) of this section until you qualify for less frequent
testing for the pollutant as specified in paragraph (a)(3) of this
section.
(b) [Reserved]
[[Page 3039]]
Sec. 60.2160 May I conduct a repeat performance test to establish new

Monitoring
Sec. 60.2165 What monitoring equipment must I install and what
parameters must I monitor?
(a) If you are using a wet scrubber to comply with the emission
limitation under Sec. 60.2105, you must install, calibrate (to
manufacturers' specifications), maintain, and operate devices (or
establish methods) for monitoring the value of the operating parameters
used to determine compliance with the operating limits listed in table
2 of this subpart. These devices (or methods) must measure and record
the values for these operating parameters at the frequencies indicated
in table 2 of this subpart at all times except as specified in Sec.
60.2170(a).
(b) If you use a fabric filter to comply with the requirements of
this subpart, you must install, calibrate, maintain, and continuously
operate a bag leak detection system as specified in paragraphs (b)(1)
through (8) of this section.
(1) You must install and operate a bag leak detection system for
each exhaust stack of the fabric filter.
(2) Each bag leak detection system must be installed, operated,
calibrated, and maintained in a manner consistent with the
manufacturer's written specifications and recommendations.
(3) The bag leak detection system must be certified by the
manufacturer to be capable of detecting particulate matter emissions at
concentrations of 10 milligrams per actual cubic meter or less.
(4) The bag leak detection system sensor must provide output of
relative or absolute particulate matter loadings.
(5) The bag leak detection system must be equipped with a device to
continuously record the output signal from the sensor.
(6) The bag leak detection system must be equipped with an alarm
system that will alert automatically an operator when an increase in
relative particulate matter emissions over a preset level is detected.
The alarm must be located where it is observed easily by plant
operating personnel.
(7) For positive pressure fabric filter systems, a bag leak
detection system must be installed in each baghouse compartment or
cell. For negative pressure or induced air fabric filters, the bag leak
detector must be installed downstream of the fabric filter.
(8) Where multiple detectors are required, the system's
instrumentation and alarm may be shared among detectors.
(c) If you are using something other than a wet scrubber, activated
carbon, selective non-catalytic reduction, an electrostatic
precipitator, or a dry scrubber to comply with the emission limitations
under Sec. 60.2105, you must install, calibrate (to the manufacturers'
specifications), maintain, and operate the equipment necessary to
monitor compliance with the site-specific operating limits established
using the procedures in Sec. 60.2115.
(d) If you use activated carbon injection to comply with the
emission limitations in this subpart, you must measure the minimum
mercury sorbent flow rate once per hour.
(e) If you use selective noncatalytic reduction to comply with the
emission limitations, you must complete the following:
(1) Following the date on which the initial performance test is
completed or is required to be completed under Sec. 60.2125, whichever
date comes first, ensure that the affected facility does not operate
above the maximum charge rate, or below the minimum secondary chamber
temperature (if applicable to your CISWI unit) or the minimum reagent
flow rate measured as 3-hour block averages at all times.
(2) Operation of the affected facility above the maximum charge
rate, below the minimum secondary chamber temperature and below the
minimum reagent flow rate simultaneously constitute a violation of the
nitrogen oxides emissions limit.
(f) If you use an electrostatic precipitator to comply with the
emission limits of this subpart, you must monitor the secondary power
to the electrostatic precipitator collection plates and maintain the 3-
hour block averages at or above the operating limits established during
the mercury or particulate matter performance test.
(g) For waste-burning kilns not equipped with a wet scrubber or dry
scrubber, in place of hydrogen chloride testing with EPA Method 321 at
40 CFR part 63, appendix A, an owner or operator must install,
calibrate, maintain, and operate a CEMS for monitoring hydrogen
chloride emissions discharged to the atmosphere and record the output
of the system. To demonstrate continuous compliance with the hydrogen
chloride emissions limit for units other than waste-burning kilns not
equipped with a wet scrubber or dry scrubber, a facility may substitute
use of a hydrogen chloride CEMS for conducting the hydrogen chloride
annual performance test, monitoring the minimum hydrogen chloride
sorbent flow rate, monitoring the minimum scrubber liquor pH, and
monitoring minimum injection rate.
(h) To demonstrate continuous compliance with the particulate
matter emissions limit, a facility may substitute use of a particulate
matter CEMS for conducting the PM annual performance test and using
other CMS for monitoring PM compliance (e.g., bag leak detectors, ESP
secondary power, PM scrubber pressure).
(i) To demonstrate continuous compliance with the dioxin/furan
emissions limit, a facility may substitute use of a continuous
automated sampling system for the dioxin/furan annual performance test.
You must record the output of the system and analyze the sample
according to EPA Method 23 at 40 CFR part 60, appendix A-7 of this
part. This option to use a continuous automated sampling system takes
effect on the date a final performance specification applicable to
dioxin/furan from continuous monitors is published in the Federal
Register. The owner or operator who elects to continuously sample
dioxin/furan emissions instead of sampling and testing using EPA Method
23 at 40 CFR part 60, appendix A-7 must install, calibrate, maintain,
and operate a continuous automated sampling system and must comply with
the requirements specified in Sec. 60.58b(p) and (q). A facility may
substitute continuous dioxin/furan monitoring for the minimum sorbent
flow rate, if activated carbon sorbent injection is used solely for
compliance with the dioxin/furan emission limit.
(j) To demonstrate continuous compliance with the mercury emissions
limit, a facility may substitute use of a continuous automated sampling
system for the mercury annual performance test. You must record the
output of the system and analyze the sample at set intervals using any
suitable determinative technique that can meet performance
specification 12B. The owner or operator who elects to continuously
sample mercury emissions instead of sampling and testing using EPA
Reference Method 29 or 30B at 40 CFR part 60, appendix A-8 of this
part, ASTM D6784-02 (Reapproved 2008) (incorporated by reference, see
Sec. 60.17), or an approved alternative method for measuring mercury
emissions, must
[[Page 3040]]
install, calibrate, maintain, and operate a continuous automated
sampling system and must comply with performance specification 12A and
quality assurance procedure 5, as well as the requirements specified in
Sec. 60.58b(p) and (q). A facility may substitute continuous mercury
monitoring for the minimum sorbent flow rate, if activated carbon
sorbent injection is used solely for compliance with the mercury
emission limit.
(k) To demonstrate continuous compliance with the nitrogen oxides
emissions limit, a facility may substitute use of a CEMS for the
nitrogen oxides annual performance test to demonstrate compliance with
the nitrogen oxides emissions limits and monitoring the charge rate,
secondary chamber temperature, and reagent flow for selective
noncatalytic reduction, if applicable.
(1) Install, calibrate, maintain, and operate a CEMS for measuring
nitrogen oxides emissions discharged to the atmosphere and record the
output of the system. The requirements under performance specification
2 of appendix B of this part, the quality assurance procedure one of
appendix F of this part and the procedures under Sec. 60.13 must be
followed for installation, evaluation, and operation of the CEMS.
(2) Following the date that the initial performance test for
nitrogen oxides is completed or is required to be completed under Sec.
60.2125, compliance with the emission limit for nitrogen oxides
required under Sec. 60.52b(d) must be determined based on the 30-day
rolling average of the hourly emission concentrations using CEMS outlet
data. The 1-hour arithmetic averages must be expressed in parts per
million by volume corrected to 7 percent oxygen (dry basis) and used to
calculate the 30-day rolling average concentrations. CEMS data during
startup and shutdown, as defined in this subpart, are not corrected to
7 percent oxygen, and are measured at stack oxygen content. The 1-hour
arithmetic averages must be calculated using the data points required
under Sec. 60.13(e)(2).
(l) To demonstrate continuous compliance with the sulfur dioxide
emissions limit, a facility may substitute use of a continuous
automated sampling system for the sulfur dioxide annual performance
test to demonstrate compliance with the sulfur dioxide emissions
limits.
(1) Install, calibrate, maintain, and operate a CEMS for measuring
sulfur dioxide emissions discharged to the atmosphere and record the
output of the system. The requirements under performance specification
2 of appendix B of this part, the quality assurance requirements of
procedure one of appendix F of this part and procedures under Sec.
60.13 must be followed for installation, evaluation, and operation of
the CEMS.
(2) Following the date that the initial performance test for sulfur
dioxide is completed or is required to be completed under Sec.
60.2125, compliance with the sulfur dioxide emission limit may be
determined based on the 30-day rolling average of the hourly arithmetic
average emission concentrations using CEMS outlet data. The 1-hour
arithmetic averages must be expressed in parts per million corrected to
7 percent oxygen (dry basis) and used to calculate the 30-day rolling
average emission concentrations. CEMS data during startup and shutdown,
as defined in this subpart, are not corrected to 7 percent oxygen, and
are measured at stack oxygen content. The 1-hour arithmetic averages
must be calculated using the data points required under Sec.
60.13(e)(2).
(m) For energy recovery units over 10 MMBtu/hr but less than 250
MMBtu/hr annual average heat input rates that do not use a wet
scrubber, fabric filter with bag leak detection system, or particulate
matter CEMS, you must install, operate, certify, and maintain a
continuous opacity monitoring system according to the procedures in
paragraphs (m)(1) through (5) of this section by the compliance date
specified in Sec. 60.2105. Energy recovery units that use a CEMS to
demonstrate initial and continuing compliance according to the
procedures in Sec. 60.2165(n) are not required to install a continuous
opacity monitoring system and must perform the annual performance tests
for the opacity consistent with Sec. 60.2145(f).
(1) Install, operate, and maintain each continuous opacity
monitoring system according to performance specification 1 of 40 CFR
part 60, appendix B.
(2) Conduct a performance evaluation of each continuous opacity
monitoring system according to the requirements in Sec. 60.13 and
according to PS-1 of 40 CFR part 60, appendix B.
(3) As specified in Sec. 60.13(e)(1), each continuous opacity
monitoring system must complete a minimum of one cycle of sampling and
analyzing for each successive 10-second period and one cycle of data
recording for each successive 6-minute period.
(4) Reduce the continuous opacity monitoring system data as
specified in Sec. 60.13(h)(1).
(5) Determine and record all the 6-minute averages (and 1-hour
block averages as applicable) collected.
(n) For coal and liquid/gas energy recovery units, incinerators,
and small remote incinerators, an owner or operator may elect to
install, calibrate, maintain, and operate a CEMS for monitoring
particulate matter emissions discharged to the atmosphere and record
the output of the system. The owner or operator of an affected facility
who continuously monitors particulate matter emissions instead of
conducting performance testing using EPA Method 5 at 40 CFR part 60,
appendix A-3 or, as applicable, monitor with a particulate matter CPMS
according to paragraph (r) of this section, must install, calibrate,
maintain, and operate a CEMS and must comply with the requirements
specified in paragraphs (n)(1) through (13) of this section.
(1) Notify the Administrator 1 month before starting use of the
system.
(2) Notify the Administrator 1 month before stopping use of the
system.
(3) The monitor must be installed, evaluated, and operated in
accordance with the requirements of performance specification 11 of
appendix B of this part and quality assurance requirements of procedure
two of appendix F of this part and Sec. 60.13. Use Method 5 or Method
5I of Appendix A of this part for the PM CEMS correlation testing.
(4) The initial performance evaluation must be completed no later
than 180 days after the date of initial startup of the affected
facility, as specified under Sec. 60.2125 or within 180 days of
notification to the Administrator of use of the continuous monitoring
system if the owner or operator was previously determining compliance
by Method 5 performance tests, whichever is later.
(5) The owner or operator of an affected facility may request that
compliance with the particulate matter emission limit be determined
using carbon dioxide measurements corrected to an equivalent of 7
percent oxygen. The relationship between oxygen and carbon dioxide
levels for the affected facility must be established according to the
procedures and methods specified in Sec. 60.2145(s)(5)(i) through
(s)(5)(iv).
(6) The owner or operator of an affected facility must conduct an
initial performance test for particulate matter emissions as required
under Sec. 60.2125. Compliance with the particulate matter emission
limit, if PM CEMS are elected for demonstrating compliance, must be
determined by using the CEMS specified in this paragraph (n) to measure
particulate matter. You must calculate a 30-day rolling average of 1-
hour arithmetic average emission concentrations, including CEMS data
during startup and shutdown, as defined in this subpart, using equation
19-19 in section 12.4.1 of EPA
[[Page 3041]]
Reference Method 19 at 40 CFR part 60, appendix A-7.
(7) Compliance with the particulate matter emission limit must be
determined based on the 30-day rolling average calculated using
equation 19-19 in section 12.4.1 of EPA Reference Method 19 at 40 CFR
part 60, appendix A-7 from the 1-hour arithmetic average CEMS outlet
data.
(8) At a minimum, valid continuous monitoring system hourly
averages must be obtained as specified in Sec. 60.2170(e).
(9) The 1-hour arithmetic averages required under paragraph (n)(7)
of this section must be expressed in milligrams per dry standard cubic
meter corrected to 7 percent oxygen (dry basis) and must be used to
calculate the 30-day rolling average emission concentrations. CEMS data
during startup and shutdown, as defined in this subpart, are not
corrected to 7 percent oxygen, and are measured at stack oxygen
content. The 1-hour arithmetic averages must be calculated using the
data points required under Sec. 60.13(e)(2).
(10) All valid CEMS data must be used in calculating average
emission concentrations even if the minimum CEMS data requirements of
paragraph (n)(8) of this section are not met.
(11) The CEMS must be operated according to performance
specification 11 in appendix B of this part.
(12) During each relative accuracy test run of the CEMS required by
performance specification 11 in appendix B of this part, particulate
matter and oxygen (or carbon dioxide) data must be collected
concurrently (or within a 30- to 60-minute period) by both the CEMS and
the following test methods.
(i) For particulate matter, EPA Reference Method 5 must be used.
(ii) For oxygen (or carbon dioxide), EPA Reference Method 3A or 3B,
as applicable, must be used.
(13) Quarterly accuracy determinations and daily calibration drift
tests must be performed in accordance with procedure 2 in appendix F of
this part.
(o) To demonstrate continuous compliance with the carbon monoxide
emissions limit, you may substitute use of a continuous automated
sampling system for the carbon monoxide annual performance test.
(1) Install, calibrate, maintain, and operate a CEMS for measuring
carbon monoxide emissions discharged to the atmosphere and record the
output of the system. The requirements under performance specification
4B of appendix B of this part, the quality assurance procedure 1 of
appendix F of this part and the procedures under Sec. 60.13 must be
followed for installation, evaluation, and operation of the CEMS.
(2) Following the date that the initial performance test for carbon
monoxide is completed or is required to be completed under Sec.
60.2140, compliance with the carbon monoxide emission limit may be
determined based on the 30-day rolling average of the hourly arithmetic
average emission concentrations, including CEMS data during startup and
shutdown as defined in this subpart, using CEMS outlet data. Except for
CEMS data during startup and shutdown, as defined in this subpart, the
1-hour arithmetic averages must be expressed in parts per million
corrected to 7 percent oxygen (dry basis) and used to calculate the 30-
day rolling average emission concentrations. CEMS data during startup
and shutdown, as defined in this subpart, are not corrected to 7
percent oxygen, and are measured at stack oxygen content. The 1-hour
arithmetic averages must be calculated using the data points required
under Sec. 60.13(e)(2).
(p) The owner/operator of an affected source with a bypass stack
shall install, calibrate (to manufacturers' specifications), maintain,
and operate a device or method for measuring the use of the bypass
stack including date, time and duration.
(q) For energy recovery units with a design heat input capacity of
100 MMBtu per hour or greater that do not use a carbon monoxide CEMS,
you must install, operate, and maintain a oxygen analyzer system as
defined in Sec. 60.2265 according to the procedures in paragraphs
(q)(1) through (q)(4) of this section.

average that is established as the operating limit for oxygen according
to paragraph (q)(4) of this section is not below the lowest hourly
average oxygen concentration measured during the most recent CO
performance test.
(4) You must calculate and record a 30-day rolling average oxygen
concentration using equation 19-19 in section 12.4.1 of EPA Reference
Method 19 of Appendix A-7 of this part.
(r) For energy recovery units with annual average heat input rates
greater than or equal to 250 MMBtu/hour and waste-burning kilns, you
must install, calibrate, maintain, and operate a PM CPMS and record the
output of the system as specified in paragraphs (r)(1) through (8) of
this section. If you elect to use a particulate matter CEMS as
specified in paragraph (n) of this section, you are not required to use
a PM CPMS to monitor particulate matter emissions. For other energy
recovery units, you may elect to use PM CPMS operated in accordance
with this section. PM CPMS are suitable in lieu of using other CMS for
monitoring PM compliance (e.g., bag leak detectors, ESP secondary
power, PM scrubber pressure).
(1) Install, calibrate, operate, and maintain your PM CPMS
according to the procedures in your approved site-specific monitoring
plan developed in accordance with Sec. 60.2145(l) and (r)(1)(i)
through (iii) of this section.
(i) The operating principle of the PM CPMS must be based on in-
stack or extractive light scatter, light scintillation, beta
attenuation, or mass accumulation detection of PM in the exhaust gas or
representative sample. The reportable measurement output from the PM
CPMS must be expressed as milliamps or a digital signal equivalent.
(ii) The PM CPMS must have a cycle time (i.e., period required to
complete sampling, measurement, and reporting for each measurement) no
longer than 60 minutes.
(iii) The PM CPMS must be capable of detecting and responding to
particulate matter concentration increments no greater than 0.5 mg/
actual cubic meter.
(2) During the initial performance test or any such subsequent
performance test that demonstrates compliance with the PM limit, you
must adjust the site-specific operating limit in accordance with the
results of the performance test according to the procedures specified
in Sec. 60.2110.
(3) Collect PM CPMS hourly average output data for all energy
recovery unit or waste-burning kiln operating hours. Express the PM
CPMS output as milliamps or the digital signal equivalent.
(4) Calculate the arithmetic 30-day rolling average of all of the
hourly average PM CPMS output collected during all energy recovery unit
or waste-burning kiln operating hours data (milliamps or digital bits).
(5) You must collect data using the PM CPMS at all times the energy
recovery unit or waste-burning kiln is operating and at the intervals
specified in paragraph (r)(1)(ii) of this section, except for periods
of monitoring system malfunctions, repairs associated with monitoring
system malfunctions, required monitoring system quality
[[Page 3042]]
assurance or quality control activities (including, as applicable,
calibration checks and required zero and span adjustments), and any
scheduled maintenance as defined in your site-specific monitoring plan.
(6) You must use all the data collected during all energy recovery
unit or waste-burning kiln operating hours in assessing the compliance
with your operating limit except:
(i) Any data collected during monitoring system malfunctions,
repairs associated with monitoring system malfunctions, or required
monitoring system quality assurance or quality control activities
conducted during monitoring system malfunctions are not used in
calculations (report any such periods in your annual deviation report);
(ii) Any data collected during periods when the monitoring system
is out of control as specified in your site-specific monitoring plan,
repairs associated with periods when the monitoring system is out of
control, or required monitoring system quality assurance or quality
control activities conducted during out-of-control periods are not used
in calculations (report emissions or operating levels and report any
such periods in your annual deviation report);
(iii) Any PM CPMS data recorded during periods of CEMS data during
startup and shutdown, as defined in this subpart.
(7) You must record and make available upon request results of PM
CPMS system performance audits, as well as the dates and duration of
periods from when the PM CPMS is out of control until completion of the
corrective actions necessary to return the PM CPMS to operation
consistent with your site-specific monitoring plan.
(8) For any deviation of the 30-day rolling average PM CPMS average
value from the established operating parameter limit, you must:
(i) Within 48 hours of the deviation, visually inspect the air
pollution control device;
(ii) If inspection of the air pollution control device identifies
the cause of the deviation, take corrective action as soon as possible
and return the PM CPMS measurement to within the established value; and
(iii) Within 30 days of the deviation or at the time of the annual
compliance test, whichever comes first, conduct a PM emissions
compliance test to determine compliance with the PM emissions limit and
to verify the operation of the control device(s). Within 45 days of the
deviation, you must re-establish the CPMS operating limit. You are not
required to conduct additional testing for any deviations that occur
between the time of the original deviation and the PM emissions
compliance test required under this paragraph.
(iv) PM CPMS deviations leading to more than four required
performance tests in a 12-month process operating period (rolling
monthly) constitute a violation of this subpart.
(s) If you use a dry scrubber to comply with the emission limits of
this subpart, you must monitor the injection rate of each sorbent and
maintain the 3-hour block averages at or above the operating limits
established during the hydrogen chloride performance test.
Sec. 60.2170 Is there a minimum amount of monitoring data I must
obtain?
For each continuous monitoring system required or optionally
allowed under Sec. 60.2165, you must collect data according to this
section:
(a) You must operate the monitoring system and collect data at all
required intervals at all times compliance is required except for
periods of monitoring system malfunctions or out-of-control periods,
repairs associated with monitoring system malfunctions or out-of-
control periods (as specified in 60.2210(o) of this part), and required
monitoring system quality assurance or quality control activities
(including, as applicable, calibration checks and required zero and
span adjustments). A monitoring system malfunction is any sudden,
infrequent, not reasonably preventable failure of the monitoring system
to provide valid data. Monitoring system failures that are caused in
part by poor maintenance or careless operation are not malfunctions.
You are required to effect monitoring system repairs in response to
monitoring system malfunctions or out-of-control periods and to return
the monitoring system to operation as expeditiously as practicable.
(b) You may not use data recorded during monitoring system
malfunctions or out-of-control periods, repairs associated with
monitoring system malfunctions or out-of-control periods, or required
monitoring system quality assurance or control activities in
calculations used to report emissions or operating levels. You must use
all the data collected during all other periods, including data
normalized for above scale readings, in assessing the operation of the
control device and associated control system.
(c) Except for periods of monitoring system malfunctions or out-of-
control periods, repairs associated with monitoring system malfunctions
or out-of-control periods, and required monitoring system quality
assurance or quality control activities including, as applicable,
calibration checks and required zero and span adjustments, failure to
collect required data is a deviation of the monitoring requirements.

(1) For incinerators, small remote incinerators, and energy
recovery units: CEMS data collected during the first hours of a CISWI
unit startup from a cold start until waste is fed to the unit and the
hours of operation following the cessation of waste material being fed
to the CISWI unit during a unit shutdown. For each startup event, the
length of time that CEMS data may be claimed as being CEMS data during
startup must be 48 operating hours or less. For each shutdown event,
the length of time that CEMS data may be claimed as being CEMS data
during shutdown must be 24 operating hours or less.
(2) For waste-burning kilns: CEMS data collected during the periods
of kiln operation that do not include normal operations. Startup begins
when the kiln's induced fan is turned on and continues until continuous
feed is introduced into the kiln, at which time the kiln is in normal
operating mode. Shutdown begins when feed to the kiln is halted.
Chemical recovery unit means combustion units burning materials to
recover chemical constituents or to produce chemical compounds where
there is an existing commercial market for such recovered chemical
constituents or compounds. A chemical recovery unit is not an
incinerator, a waste-burning kiln, an energy recovery unit or a small,

means any distinct operating unit of any commercial or industrial
facility that combusts, or has combusted in the preceding 6 months, any
solid waste as that term is defined in 40 CFR part 241. If the
operating unit burns materials other than traditional fuels as defined
in Sec. 241.2 that have been discarded, and you do not keep and
produce records as required by Sec. 60.2175(v), the operating unit is
a CISWI unit. While not all CISWI units will include all of the
following components, a CISWI unit includes, but is not limited to, the
solid waste feed system, grate system, flue gas system, waste heat
recovery equipment, if any, and bottom ash system. The CISWI unit does
not include air pollution control equipment or the stack. The CISWI

[[Page 3048]]
Cyclonic burn barrel means a combustion device for waste materials
that is attached to a 55 gallon, open-head drum. The device consists of
a lid, which fits onto and encloses the drum, and a blower that forces
combustion air into the drum in a cyclonic manner to enhance the mixing
of waste material and air. A cyclonic burn barrel is not an
incinerator, a waste-burning kiln, an energy recovery unit or a small,
remote incinerator under this subpart.
Deviation means any instance in which an affected source subject to
this subpart, or an owner or operator of such a source:
(1) Fails to meet any requirement or obligation established by this
subpart, including but not limited to any emission limitation,
operating limit, or operator qualification and accessibility

subpart DDDD, only, burned in an incineration unit without energy
recovery.
Drum reclamation unit means a unit that burns residues out of drums
(e.g., 55 gallon drums) so that the drums can be reused.
Dry scrubber means an add-on air pollution control system that
injects dry alkaline sorbent (dry injection) or sprays an alkaline
sorbent (spray dryer) to react with and neutralize acid gas in the
exhaust stream forming a dry powder material. Sorbent injection systems
in fluidized bed boilers and process heaters are included in this
definition. A dry scrubber is a dry control system.
Energy recovery means the process of recovering thermal energy from
combustion for useful purposes such as steam generation or process
heating.
Energy recovery unit means a combustion unit combusting solid waste
(as that term is defined by the Administrator in 40 CFR part 241) for
energy recovery. Energy recovery units include units that would be
considered boilers and process heaters if they did not combust solid
waste.
Energy recovery unit designed to burn biomass (Biomass) means an
energy recovery unit that burns solid waste, biomass, and non-coal
solid materials but less than 10 percent coal, on a heat input basis on
an annual average, either alone or in combination with liquid waste,
liquid fuel or gaseous fuels.
Energy recovery unit designed to burn coal (Coal) means an energy
recovery unit that burns solid waste and at least 10 percent coal on a
heat input basis on an annual average, either alone or in combination
with liquid waste, liquid fuel or gaseous fuels.

reclamation unit that removes coatings that are on foundry sand. A
foundry sand thermal reclamation unit is not an incinerator, a waste-
burning kiln, an energy recovery unit or a small, remote incinerator
under this subpart.
Incinerator means any furnace used in the process of combusting
solid waste (as that term is defined by the Administrator in 40 CFR
part 241) for the purpose of reducing the volume of the waste by
removing combustible matter. Incinerator designs include single chamber
and two-chamber.
In-line coal mill means those coal mills using kiln exhaust gases
in their process. Coal mills with a heat source other than the kiln or
coal mills using exhaust gases from the clinker cooler alone are not an
in-line coal mill.
In-line kiln/raw mill means a system in a Portland Cement
production process where a dry kiln system is integrated with the raw
mill so that all or a portion of the kiln exhaust gases are used to
perform the drying operation of the raw mill, with no auxiliary heat
source used. In this system the kiln is capable of operating without
the raw mill operating, but the raw mill cannot operate without the
kiln gases, and consequently, the raw mill does not generate a separate
exhaust gas stream.
Kiln means an oven or furnace, including any associated preheater
or precalciner devices, in-line raw mills, in-line coal mills or alkali
bypasses used for processing a substance by burning, firing or drying.
Kilns include cement kilns that produce clinker by heating limestone
and other materials for subsequent production of Portland Cement.
Because the alkali bypass, in-line raw mill and in-line coal mill are
considered an integral part of the kiln, the kiln emissions limits also
apply to the exhaust of the alkali bypass, in-line raw mill and in-line
coal mill.
Laboratory analysis unit means units that burn samples of materials
for the purpose of chemical or physical analysis. A laboratory analysis
unit is not an incinerator, waste-burning kiln, an energy recovery unit
or a small, remote incinerator under this subpart.
Load fraction means the actual heat input of an energy recovery
unit divided by heat input during the performance test that established
the minimum sorbent injection rate or minimum activated carbon
injection rate, expressed as a fraction (e.g., for 50 percent load the
load fraction is 0.5).
Low-level radioactive waste means waste material which contains
radioactive nuclides emitting primarily beta or gamma radiation, or
both, in concentrations or quantities that exceed applicable federal or
state standards for unrestricted release. Low-level radioactive waste
is not high-level radioactive waste, spent nuclear fuel, or byproduct
material as defined by the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 (42 U.S.C.
2014(e)(2)).
Malfunction means any sudden, infrequent, and not reasonably
preventable failure of air pollution control equipment, process
equipment, or a process to operate in a normal or usual manner.

criteria:
(1) The cumulative cost of the changes over the life of the unit
exceeds 50 percent of the original cost of building and installing the
CISWI unit (not including the cost of land) updated to current costs
(current dollars). To determine what systems are within the boundary of
the CISWI unit used to calculate these costs, see the definition of
CISWI unit.
(2) Any physical change in the CISWI unit or change in the method
of operating it that increases the amount of any air pollutant emitted
for which section 129 or section 111 of the Clean Air Act has
established standards.

at any time in the CISWI unit.
Oxygen analyzer system means all equipment required to determine
the oxygen content of a gas stream and used to monitor oxygen in the
boiler or process heater flue gas, boiler or process heater, firebox,
or other appropriate location. This definition includes oxygen trim
systems and certified oxygen CEMS. The source owner or operator is
responsible to install, calibrate, maintain, and operate the oxygen
analyzer system in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations.
Oxygen trim system means a system of monitors that is used to
maintain excess air at the desired level in a combustion device over
its operating range. A typical system consists of a flue gas oxygen
and/or carbon monoxide monitor that automatically provides a feedback
signal to the combustion air controller or draft controller.

CISWI unit which may increase the emission rate of any air pollutant to
which a standard applies;
(2) An operational change to the CISWI unit where a new type of
non-hazardous secondary material is being combusted;
(3) A physical change (maintenance activities excluded) to the air
pollution control devices used to comply with the emission limits for
the CISWI unit (e.g., replacing an electrostatic precipitator with a
fabric filter);
(4) An operational change to the air pollution control devices used
to comply with the emission limits for the affected CISWI unit (e.g.,
change in the sorbent injection rate used for activated carbon
injection).

distance to the nearest municipal solid waste landfill.
Soil treatment unit means a unit that thermally treats petroleum-
contaminated soils for the sole purpose of site remediation. A soil
treatment unit may be direct-fired or indirect fired. A soil treatment
unit is not an incinerator, a waste-burning kiln, an energy recovery
unit or a small, remote incinerator under this subpart.
Solid waste means the term solid waste as defined in 40 CFR 241.2.
Solid waste incineration unit means a distinct operating unit of
any facility which combusts any solid waste (as that term is defined by
the Administrator in 40 CFR part 241) material from commercial or
industrial establishments or the general public (including single and
multiple residences, hotels and motels). Such term does not include
incinerators or other units required to have a permit under section
3005 of the Solid Waste Disposal Act. The term ``solid waste

section 3(17)(C) of the Federal Power Act (16 U.S.C. 769(17)(C)), or
qualifying cogeneration facilities, as defined in section 3(18)(B) of
the Federal Power Act (16 U.S.C. 796(18)(B)), which burn homogeneous
waste (such as units which burn tires or used oil, but not including
refuse-derived fuel) for the production of electric energy or in the
case of qualifying cogeneration facilities which burn homogeneous waste
for the production of electric energy and steam or forms of useful
energy (such as heat) which are used for industrial, commercial,
heating or cooling purposes; or
(3) Air curtain incinerators provided that such incinerators only
burn wood wastes, yard wastes, and clean lumber and that such air
curtain incinerators comply with opacity limitations to be established
by the Administrator by rule.
Space heater means a unit that meets the requirements of 40 CFR
279.23. A space heater is not an incinerator, a waste-burning kiln, an
energy recovery unit or a small, remote incinerator under this subpart.
Standard conditions, when referring to units of measure, means a
temperature of 68[deg]F (20 [deg]C) and a pressure of 1 atmosphere
(101.3 kilopascals).
Startup period means the period of time between the activation of
the system and the first charge to the unit.
Waste-burning kiln means a kiln that is heated, in whole or in
part, by combusting solid waste (as that term is defined by the
Administrator in 40 CFR part 241). Secondary materials used in Portland
cement kilns shall not be deemed to be combusted unless they are
introduced into the flame zone in the hot end of the kiln or mixed with
the precalciner fuel.
Wet scrubber means an add-on air pollution control device that uses
an aqueous or alkaline scrubbing liquor to collect particulate matter
(including nonvaporous metals and condensed organics) and/or to absorb
and neutralize acid gases.
Wood waste means untreated wood and untreated wood products,
including tree stumps (whole or chipped), trees, tree limbs (whole or
chipped), bark, sawdust, chips, scraps, slabs, millings, and shavings.
Wood waste does not include:
(1) Grass, grass clippings, bushes, shrubs, and clippings from
bushes and shrubs from residential, commercial/retail, institutional,
or industrial sources as part of maintaining yards or other private or
public lands.
(2) Construction, renovation, or demolition wastes.
(3) Clean lumber.

Subpart DDDD--Emissions Guidelines and Compliance Times for
Commercial and Industrial Solid Waste Incineration Units
Introduction
Sec. 60.2500 What is the purpose of this subpart?
This subpart establishes emission guidelines and compliance
schedules for the control of emissions from commercial and industrial
solid waste incineration (CISWI) units. The pollutants addressed by
these emission guidelines are listed in table 2 of this subpart and
tables 6 through 9 of this subpart. These emission guidelines are
developed in accordance with sections 111(d) and 129 of the Clean Air
Act and subpart B of this part.
Sec. 60.2505 Am I affected by this subpart?
(a) If you are the Administrator of an air quality program in a
state or United States protectorate with one or more existing CISWI
units that meet the criteria in paragraphs (b) through (d) of this
section, you must submit a state plan to U.S. Environmental Protection
[[Page 3057]]
Agency (EPA) that implements the emission guidelines contained in this
subpart.
(b) You must submit a state plan to EPA by December 3, 2001 for
incinerator units that commenced construction on or before November 30,
1999 and that were not modified or reconstructed after June 1, 2001.
(c) You must submit a state plan that meets the requirements of
this subpart and contains the more stringent emission limit for the
respective pollutant in table 6 of this subpart or table 1 of subpart
CCCC of this part to EPA by February 7, 2014 for incinerators that
commenced construction after November 30, 1999, but no later than June
4, 2010, or commenced modification or reconstruction after June 1, 2001
but no later than August 7, 2013.
(d) You must submit a state plan to EPA that meets the requirements
of this subpart and contains the emission limits in tables 7 through 9
of this subpart by February 7, 2014, for CISWI units other than
incinerator units that commenced construction on or before June 4,
2010, or commenced modification or reconstruction after June 4, 2010
but no later than August 7, 2013.
Sec. 60.2510 Is a state plan required for all states?
No. You are not required to submit a state plan if there are no
existing CISWI units in your state, and you submit a negative
declaration letter in place of the state plan.
Sec. 60.2515 What must I include in my state plan?
(a) You must include the nine items described in paragraphs (a)(1)
through (9) of this section in your state plan.
(1) Inventory of affected CISWI units, including those that have
ceased operation but have not been dismantled.
(2) Inventory of emissions from affected CISWI units in your state.
(3) Compliance schedules for each affected CISWI unit.
(4) Emission limitations, operator training and qualification
requirements, a waste management plan, and operating limits for
affected CISWI units that are at least as protective as the emission
guidelines contained in this subpart.
(5) Performance testing, recordkeeping, and reporting requirements.
(6) Certification that the hearing on the state plan was held, a
list of witnesses and their organizational affiliations, if any,
appearing at the hearing, and a brief written summary of each
presentation or written submission.
(7) Provision for state progress reports to EPA.
(8) Identification of enforceable state mechanisms that you
selected for implementing the emission guidelines of this subpart.
(9) Demonstration of your state's legal authority to carry out the
sections 111(d) and 129 state plan.
(b) Your state plan may deviate from the format and content of the
emission guidelines contained in this subpart. However, if your state
plan does deviate in content, you must demonstrate that your state plan
is at least as protective as the emission guidelines contained in this
subpart. Your state plan must address regulatory applicability,
increments of progress for retrofit, operator training and
qualification, a waste management plan, emission limitations,
performance testing, operating limits, monitoring, recordkeeping and
reporting, and air curtain incinerator requirements.
(c) You must follow the requirements of subpart B of this part
(Adoption and Submittal of State Plans for Designated Facilities) in
your state plan.
Sec. 60.2520 Is there an approval process for my state plan?
Yes. The EPA will review your state plan according to Sec. 60.27.
Sec. 60.2525 What if my state plan is not approvable?
(a) If you do not submit an approvable state plan (or a negative
declaration letter) by December 2, 2002, EPA will develop a federal
plan according to Sec. 60.27 to implement the emission guidelines
contained in this subpart. Owners and operators of CISWI units not
covered by an approved state plan must comply with the federal plan.
The federal plan is an interim action and will be automatically
withdrawn when your state plan is approved.
(b) If you do not submit an approvable state plan (or a negative
declaration letter) to EPA that meets the requirements of this subpart
and contains the emission limits in tables 6 through 9 of this subpart
for CISWI units that commenced construction on or before June 4, 2010
and incinerator or air curtain incinerator units that commenced
reconstruction or modification on or after June 1, 2001 but no later
than August 7, 2013, then EPA will develop a federal plan according to
Sec. 60.27 to implement the emission guidelines contained in this
subpart. Owners and operators of CISWI units not covered by an approved
state plan must comply with the federal plan. The federal plan is an
interim action and will be automatically withdrawn when your state plan
is approved.
Sec. 60.2530 Is there an approval process for a negative declaration
letter?
No. The EPA has no formal review process for negative declaration
letters. Once your negative declaration letter has been received, EPA
will place a copy in the public docket and publish a notice in the
Federal Register. If, at a later date, an existing CISWI unit is found
in your state, the federal plan implementing the emission guidelines
contained in this subpart would automatically apply to that CISWI unit
until your state plan is approved.
Sec. 60.2535 What compliance schedule must I include in my state
plan?
(a) For CISWI units in the incinerator subcategory and air curtain
incinerators that commenced construction on or before November 30,
1999, your state plan must include compliance schedules that require
CISWI units in the incinerator subcategory and air curtain incinerators
to achieve final compliance as expeditiously as practicable after
approval of the state plan but not later than the earlier of the two
dates specified in paragraphs (a)(1) and (2) of this section.
(1) December 1, 2005.
(2) Three years after the effective date of state plan approval.
(b) For CISWI units in the incinerator subcategory and air curtain
incinerators that commenced construction after November 30, 1999, but
on or before June 4, 2010 or that commenced reconstruction or
modification on or after June 1, 2001 but no later than August 7, 2013,
and for CISWI units in the small remote incinerator, energy recovery
unit, and waste-burning kiln subcategories that commenced construction
before June 4, 2010, your state plan must include compliance schedules
that require CISWI units to achieve final compliance as expeditiously
as practicable after approval of the state plan but not later than the
earlier of the two dates specified in paragraphs (b)(1) and (2) of this
section.
(1) February 7, 2018.
(2) Three years after the effective date of State plan approval.
(c) For compliance schedules more than 1 year following the
effective date of State plan approval, State plans must include dates
for enforceable increments of progress as specified in Sec. 60.2580.
[[Page 3058]]
Sec. 60.2540 Are there any State plan requirements for this subpart
that apply instead of the requirements specified in subpart B?
Yes. Subpart B establishes general requirements for developing and
processing section 111(d) plans. This subpart applies instead of the
requirements in subpart B of this part for paragraphs (a) and (b) of
this section:
(a) State plans developed to implement this subpart must be as
protective as the emission guidelines contained in this subpart. State
plans must require all CISWI units to comply by the dates specified in
Sec. 60.2535. This applies instead of the option for case-by-case less
stringent emission standards and longer compliance schedules in Sec.
60.24(f).
(b) State plans developed to implement this subpart are required to
include two increments of progress for the affected CISWI units. These
two minimum increments are the final control plan submittal date and
final compliance date in Sec. 60.21(h)(1) and (5). This applies
instead of the requirement of Sec. 60.24(e)(1) that would require a
State plan to include all five increments of progress for all CISWI
units.
Sec. 60.2541 In lieu of a state plan submittal, are there other
acceptable option(s) for a state to meet its Clean Air Act section
111(d)/129(b)(2) obligations?
Yes, a state may meet its Clean Air Act section 111(d)/129
obligations by submitting an acceptable written request for delegation
of the federal plan that meets the requirements of this section. This
is the only other option for a state to meet its Clean Air Act section
111(d)/129 obligations.
(a) An acceptable federal plan delegation request must include the
following:
(1) A demonstration of adequate resources and legal authority to
administer and enforce the federal plan.
(2) The items under Sec. 60.2515(a)(1), (2) and (7).
(3) Certification that the hearing on the state delegation request,
similar to the hearing for a state plan submittal, was held, a list of
witnesses and their organizational affiliations, if any, appearing at
the hearing, and a brief written summary of each presentation or
written submission.
(4) A commitment to enter into a Memorandum of Agreement with the
Regional Administrator who sets forth the terms, conditions, and
effective date of the delegation and that serves as the mechanism for
the transfer of authority. Additional guidance and information is given
in EPA's Delegation Manual, Item 7-139, Implementation and Enforcement
of 111(d)(2) and 111(d)/(2)/129(b)(3) federal plans.
(b) A state with an already approved CISWI Clean Air Act section
111(d)/129 state plan is not precluded from receiving EPA approval of a
delegation request for the revised federal plan, providing the
requirements of paragraph (a) of this section are met, and at the time
of the delegation request, the state also requests withdrawal of EPA's
previous state plan approval.
(c) A state's Clean Air Act section 111(d)/129 obligations are
separate from its obligations under Title V of the Clean Air Act.
Sec. 60.2542 What authorities will not be delegated to state, local,
or tribal agencies?
The authorities listed under Sec. 60.2030(c) will not be delegated
to state, local, or tribal agencies.
Sec. 60.2545 Does this subpart directly affect CISWI unit owners and
operators in my state?
(a) No. This subpart does not directly affect CISWI unit owners and
operators in your state. However, CISWI unit owners and operators must
comply with the state plan you develop to implement the emission
guidelines contained in this subpart. States may choose to incorporate
the model rule text directly in their state plan.
(b) If you do not submit an approvable plan to implement and
enforce the guidelines contained in this subpart for CISWI units that
commenced construction before November 30, 1999 by December 2, 2002,
EPA will implement and enforce a federal plan, as provided in Sec.
60.2525, to ensure that each unit within your state reaches compliance
with all the provisions of this subpart by December 1, 2005.
(c) If you do not submit an approvable plan to implement and
enforce the guidelines contained in this subpart by February 7, 2014,
for CISWI units that commenced construction on or before June 4, 2010,
EPA will implement and enforce a federal plan, as provided in Sec.
60.2525, to ensure that each unit within your state that commenced
construction on or before June 4, 2010, reaches compliance with all the
provisions of this subpart by February 7, 2018.

(a) The model rule is the portion of these emission guidelines
(Sec. Sec. 60.2575 through 60.2875) that addresses the regulatory
requirements applicable to CISWI units. The model rule provides these
requirements in regulation format. You must develop a state plan that
is at least as protective as the model rule. You may use the model rule
language as part of your state plan. Alternative language may be used
in your state plan if you demonstrate that the alternative language is
at least as protective as the model rule contained in this subpart.
(b) In the model rule of Sec. Sec. 60.2575 to 60.2875, ``you''
means the owner or operator of a CISWI unit.
Sec. 60.2565 How does the model rule relate to the required elements
of my state plan?
Use the model rule to satisfy the state plan requirements specified
in Sec. 60.2515(a)(4) and (5).

Sec. 60.2665 What if all the qualified operators are temporarily not
accessible?
If all qualified operators are temporarily not accessible (i.e.,
not at the facility and not able to be at the facility within 1 hour),
you must meet one of the two criteria specified in paragraphs (a) and
(b) of this section, depending on the length of time that a qualified
operator is not accessible.
(a) When all qualified operators are not accessible for more than 8
hours, but less than 2 weeks, the CISWI unit may be operated by other
plant personnel familiar with the operation of the CISWI unit who have
completed a review of the information specified in Sec. 60.2660(a)
within the past 12 months. However, you must record the period when all

the annual report as specified under Sec. 60.2770.
(b) When all qualified operators are not accessible for 2 weeks or
more, you must take the two actions that are described in paragraphs
(b)(1) and (2) of this section.
(1) Notify the Administrator of this deviation in writing within 10
days. In the notice, state what caused this deviation, what you are
doing to ensure that a qualified operator is accessible, and when you
anticipate that a qualified operator will be accessible.
(2) Submit a status report to the Administrator every 4 weeks
outlining what you are doing to ensure that a qualified operator is
accessible, stating when you anticipate that a qualified operator will
be accessible and requesting approval from the Administrator to
continue operation of the CISWI unit. You must submit the first status
report 4 weeks after you notify the Administrator of the deviation
under paragraph (b)(1) of this section. If the Administrator notifies
you that your request to continue operation of the CISWI unit is
disapproved, the CISWI unit may continue operation for 90 days, then
must cease operation. Operation of the unit may resume if you meet the
two requirements in paragraphs (b)(2)(i) and (ii) of this section.
(i) A qualified operator is accessible as required under Sec.
60.2635(a).
(ii) You notify the Administrator that a qualified operator is
accessible and that you are resuming operation.
Model Rule--Emission Limitations and Operating Limits
Sec. 60.2670 What emission limitations must I meet and by when?
(a) You must meet the emission limitations for each CISWI unit,
including bypass stack or vent, specified in table 2 of this subpart or
tables 6 through 9 of this subpart by the final compliance date under
the approved state plan, federal plan, or delegation, as applicable.
The emission limitations apply at all times the unit is operating
including and not limited to startup, shutdown, or malfunction.
(b) Units that do not use wet scrubbers must maintain opacity to
less than or equal to the percent opacity (three 1-hour blocks
consisting of ten 6-minute average opacity values) specified in table 2
of this subpart, as applicable.
Sec. 60.2675 What operating limits must I meet and by when?
(a) If you use a wet scrubber(s) to comply with the emission
limitations, you must establish operating limits for up to four
operating parameters (as specified in table 3 of this subpart) as
described in paragraphs (a)(1) through (4) of this section during the
initial performance test.
(1) Maximum charge rate, calculated using one of the two different
procedures in paragraph (a)(1)(i) or (ii), as appropriate.
(i) For continuous and intermittent units, maximum charge rate is
110 percent of the average charge rate measured during the most recent
performance test demonstrating compliance with all applicable emission
limitations.
(ii) For batch units, maximum charge rate is 110 percent of the
daily charge rate measured during the most recent performance test
demonstrating compliance with all applicable emission limitations.
(2) Minimum pressure drop across the wet particulate matter
scrubber, which is calculated as the lowest 1-hour average pressure
drop across the wet scrubber measured during the most recent
performance test demonstrating
[[Page 3062]]
compliance with the particulate matter emission limitations; or minimum
amperage to the wet scrubber, which is calculated as the lowest 1-hour
average amperage to the wet scrubber measured during the most recent
performance test demonstrating compliance with the particulate matter
emission limitations.
(3) Minimum scrubber liquid flow rate, which is calculated as the
lowest 1-hour average liquid flow rate at the inlet to the wet acid gas
or particulate matter scrubber measured during the most recent
performance test demonstrating compliance with all applicable emission
limitations.
(4) Minimum scrubber liquor pH, which is calculated as the lowest
1-hour average liquor pH at the inlet to the wet acid gas scrubber
measured during the most recent performance test demonstrating
compliance with the HCl emission limitation.
(b) You must meet the operating limits established during the
initial performance test on the date the initial performance test is
required or completed (whichever is earlier). You must conduct an
initial performance evaluation of each continuous monitoring system and
continuous parameter monitoring system within 60 days of installation
of the monitoring system.
(c) If you use a fabric filter to comply with the emission
limitations, you must operate each fabric filter system such that the
bag leak detection system alarm does not sound more than 5 percent of
the operating time during a 6-month period. In calculating this
operating time percentage, if inspection of the fabric filter
demonstrates that no corrective action is required, no alarm time is
counted. If corrective action is required, each alarm shall be counted
as a minimum of 1 hour. If you take longer than 1 hour to initiate
corrective action, the alarm time shall be counted as the actual amount
of time taken by you to initiate corrective action.
(d) If you use an electrostatic precipitator to comply with the
emission limitations, you must measure the (secondary) voltage and
amperage of the electrostatic precipitator collection plates during the
particulate matter performance test. Calculate the average electric
power value (secondary voltage x secondary current = secondary electric
power) for each test run. The operating limit for the electrostatic
precipitator is calculated as the lowest 1-hour average secondary
electric power measured during the most recent performance test
demonstrating compliance with the particulate matter emission
limitations.
(e) If you use activated carbon sorbent injection to comply with
the emission limitations, you must measure the sorbent flow rate during
the performance testing. The operating limit for the carbon sorbent
injection is calculated as the lowest 1-hour average sorbent flow rate
measured during the most recent performance test demonstrating
compliance with the mercury emission limitations. For energy recovery
units, when your unit operates at lower loads, multiply your sorbent
injection rate by the load fraction, as defined in this subpart, to
determine the required injection rate (e.g., for 50 percent load,
multiply the injection rate operating limit by 0.5).
(f) If you use selective noncatalytic reduction to comply with the
emission limitations, you must measure the charge rate, the secondary
chamber temperature (if applicable to your CISWI unit), and the reagent
flow rate during the nitrogen oxides performance testing. The operating
limits for the selective noncatalytic reduction are calculated as the
highest 1-hour average charge rate, lowest secondary chamber
temperature, and lowest reagent flow rate measured during the most
recent performance test demonstrating compliance with the nitrogen
oxides emission limitations.
(g) If you use a dry scrubber to comply with the emission
limitations, you must measure the injection rate of each sorbent during
the performance testing. The operating limit for the injection rate of
each sorbent is calculated as the lowest 1-hour average injection rate
of each sorbent measured during the most recent performance test
demonstrating compliance with the hydrogen chloride emission
limitations. For energy recovery units, when your unit operates at
lower loads, multiply your sorbent injection rate by the load fraction,
as defined in this subpart, to determine the required injection rate
(e.g., for 50 percent load, multiply the injection rate operating limit
by 0.5).
(h) If you do not use a wet scrubber, electrostatic precipitator,
or fabric filter to comply with the emission limitations, and if you do
not determine compliance with your particulate matter emission
limitation with a particulate matter CEMS, you must maintain opacity to
less than or equal to ten percent opacity (1-hour block average).
(i) If you use a PM CPMS to demonstrate compliance, you must
establish your PM CPMS operating limit and determine compliance with it
according to paragraphs (i)(1) through (5) of this section.
(1) During the initial performance test or any such subsequent
performance test that demonstrates compliance with the PM limit, record
all hourly average output values (milliamps, or the digital signal
equivalent) from the PM CPMS for the periods corresponding to the test
runs (e.g., three 1-hour average PM CPMS output values for three 1-hour
test runs).
(i) Your PM CPMS must provide a 4-20 milliamp output, or the
digital signal equivalent, and the establishment of its relationship to
manual reference method measurements must be determined in units of
milliamps or digital bits.
(ii) Your PM CPMS operating range must be capable of reading PM
concentrations from zero to a level equivalent to at least two 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 two times your allowable emission limit.
(iii) During the initial performance test or any such subsequent
performance test that demonstrates compliance with the PM limit, record
and average all milliamp output values, or their digital equivalent,
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).
(2) If the average of your three PM performance test runs are 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 performance test with the
procedures in (i)(1)through (5) of this section.
(i) Determine your instrument zero output with one of the following
procedures:
(A) 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.
(B) Zero point data for extractive instruments should be obtained
by removing the extractive probe from the stack and drawing in clean
ambient air.
(C) The zero point can also can be established obtained 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.
[[Page 3063]]
(D) If none of the steps in paragraphs (i)(2)(i)(A) through
(i)(2)(i)(C) of this section are possible, you must use a zero output
value provided by the manufacturer.
(ii) Determine your PM CPMS instrument average in milliamps, or the
digital equivalent, and the average of your corresponding three PM
compliance test runs, using equation 1.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP21JA15.014
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, and
n = the number of data points.
(iii) With your instrument zero expressed in milliamps, or the
digital equivalent, your three run average PM CPMS milliamp or digital
value, and your three run average PM concentration from your three
compliance tests, determine a relationship of mg/dscm per milliamp, or
per digital signal equivalent, with equation 2.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP21JA15.015
Where:
R = the relative mg/dscm per milliamp, or the digital equivalent,
for your PM CPMS,
Y1 = the three run average mg/dscm PM concentration,
X1 = the three run average milliamp output, or the
digital equivalent, from you PM CPMS, and
z = the milliamp or digital signal equivalent of your instrument
zero determined from paragraph (i)(2)(i) of this section.
(iv) Determine your source specific 30-day rolling average
operating limit using the mg/dscm per milliamp value, or per digital
signal equivalent, from equation 2 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] TP21JA15.016
Where:
Ol = the operating limit for your PM CPMS on a 30-day
rolling average, in milliamps or digital bits.
L = your source emission limit expressed in mg/dscm,
z = your instrument zero in milliamps or digital bits, determined
from paragraph (i)(2)(i) of this section, and
R = the relative mg/dscm per milliamp, or per digital bits, for your
PM CPMS, from equation 2.
(3) 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 or digital signal
output corresponding to your three PM performance test runs that
demonstrate compliance with the emission limit using equation 4 and you
must submit all compliance test and PM CPMS data according to the
reporting requirements in paragraph (i)(5) of this section.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP21JA15.017
Where:
X1 = the PM CPMS data points for all runs i,
n = the number of data points, and
Oh = your site specific operating limit, in milliamps or
digital bits.
(4) To determine continuous compliance, you must record the PM CPMS
output data for all periods when the process is operating and the PM
CPMS 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 (e.g., milliamps or
digital bits, PM concentration, raw data signal) on a 30-day rolling
average basis.
(5) 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 or digital signal value equivalent to the instrument zero
output, technique by which this zero value was determined, and the
average milliamp or digital signals corresponding to each PM compliance
test run.

(a) If you use an air pollution control device other than a wet
scrubber, activated carbon injection, selective noncatalytic reduction,
fabric filter, an electrostatic precipitator, or a dry scrubber or
limit emissions in some other manner, including mass balances, to
comply with the emission limitations under Sec. 60.2670, you must

is specified in table 1 of this subpart.
(b) If you commence or recommence combusting a solid waste at an
existing combustion unit at any commercial or industrial facility and
you conducted a test consistent with the provisions of this subpart
while combusting the given solid waste within the 6 months preceding
the reintroduction of that solid waste in the combustion chamber, you
do not need to retest until 6 months from the date you reintroduce that
solid waste.
(c) If you commence or recommence combusting a solid waste at an
existing combustion unit at any commercial or industrial facility and
you have not conducted a performance test consistent with the
provisions of this subpart while combusting the given solid waste
within the 6 months preceding the reintroduction of that solid waste in

Model Rule--Continuous Compliance Requirements
Sec. 60.2710 How do I demonstrate continuous compliance with the
amended emission limitations and the operating limits?
(a) Compliance with standards. (1) The emission standards and
operating requirements set forth in this subpart apply at all times.
(2) If you cease combusting solid waste you may opt to remain
subject to the provisions of this subpart. Consistent with the
definition of CISWI unit, you are subject to the requirements of this
subpart at least 6 months following the last date of solid waste
combustion. Solid waste combustion is ceased when solid waste is not in
the combustion chamber (i.e., the solid waste feed to the combustor has
been cut off for a period of time not less than the solid waste
residence time).
(3) If you cease combusting solid waste you must be in compliance
with any newly applicable standards on the effective date of the waste-
to-fuel switch. The effective date of the waste-to-fuel switch is a
date selected by you, that must be at least 6 months from the date that
you ceased combusting solid waste, consistent with Sec. 60.2710(a)(2).
Your source must remain in compliance with this subpart until the
effective date of the waste-to-fuel switch.
(4) If you own or operate an existing commercial or industrial
combustion unit that combusted a fuel or non-waste material, and you
commence or recommence combustion of solid waste, you are subject to
the provisions of this subpart as of the first day you introduce or
reintroduce solid waste to the combustion chamber, and this date
constitutes the effective date of the fuel-to-waste switch. You must
complete all initial compliance demonstrations for any Section 112
standards that are applicable to your facility before you commence or
recommence combustion of solid waste. You must provide 30 days prior
notice of the effective date of the waste-to-fuel switch. The
notification must identify:
(i) The name of the owner or operator of the CISWI unit, the
location of the source, the emissions unit(s) that will cease burning
solid waste, and the date of the notice;
(ii) The currently applicable subcategory under this subpart, and
any 40 CFR part 63 subpart and subcategory that will be applicable
after you cease combusting solid waste;
(iii) The fuel(s), non-waste material(s) and solid waste(s) the
CISWI unit is currently combusting and has combusted over the past 6
months, and the fuel(s) or non-waste materials the unit will commence
combusting;
(iv) The date on which you became subject to the currently
applicable emission limits;
(v) The date upon which you will cease combusting solid waste, and
the date (if different) that you intend for any new requirements to
become applicable (i.e., the effective date of the waste-to-fuel
switch), consistent with paragraphs (a)(2) and (3) of this section.
(5) All air pollution control equipment necessary for compliance
with any newly applicable emissions limits which apply as a result of
the cessation or commencement or recommencement of combusting solid
waste must be installed and operational as of the effective date of the
waste-to-fuel, or fuel-to-waste switch.
(6) All monitoring systems necessary for compliance with any newly
applicable monitoring requirements which apply as a result of the
cessation or commencement or recommencement of combusting solid waste
must be installed and operational as of the effective date of the
waste-to-fuel, or fuel-to-waste switch. All calibration and drift
checks must be performed as of the effective date of the waste-to-fuel,
or fuel-to-waste switch. Relative accuracy tests must be performed as
of the performance test deadline for PM CEMS (if PM CEMS are elected to
demonstrate continuous compliance with the particulate matter emission
limits). Relative accuracy testing for other CEMS need not be repeated
if that testing was previously performed consistent with section 112
monitoring requirements or monitoring requirements under this subpart.
(b) You must conduct an annual performance test for the pollutants
listed in table 2 of this subpart or tables 6 through 9 of this subpart
and opacity for each CISWI unit as required under Sec. 60.2690. The
annual performance test must be conducted using the test methods listed
in table 2 of this subpart or tables 6 through 9 of this subpart and
the procedures in Sec. 60.2690. Opacity must be measured using EPA
Reference Method 9 at 40 CFR part 60. Annual performance tests are not
required if you use CEMS or continuous opacity monitoring systems to
determine compliance.
(c) You must continuously monitor the operating parameters
specified in Sec. 60.2675 or established under Sec. 60.2680 and as
specified in Sec. 60.2735. Operation above the established maximum or
below the established minimum operating limits constitutes a deviation
from the established operating limits. Three-hour block average values
are used to determine compliance (except for baghouse leak detection
system alarms) unless a different averaging period is established under
Sec. 60.2680 or, for energy recovery units, where the averaging time
for each operating parameter is a 30-day rolling, calculated each hour
as the average of the previous 720 operating hours over the previous 30
days of operation. Operation above the established maximum, below the
established minimum, or outside the allowable range of the operating
limits specified in paragraph (a) of this section
[[Page 3066]]
constitutes a deviation from your operating limits established under
this subpart, except during performance tests conducted to determine
compliance with the emission and operating limits or to establish new
operating limits. Operating limits are confirmed or reestablished
during performance tests.
(d) You must burn only the same types of waste and fuels used to
establish subcategory applicability (for ERUs) and operating limits
during the performance test.
(e) For energy recovery units, incinerators, and small remote
units, you must perform annual visual emissions test for ash handling.
(f) For energy recovery units, you must conduct an annual
performance test for opacity using EPA Reference Method 9 at 40 CFR
part 60 (except where particulate matter continuous monitoring system
or continuous parameter monitoring systems are used) and the pollutants
listed in table 7 of this subpart.
(g) For facilities using a CEMS to demonstrate compliance with the
carbon monoxide emission limit, compliance with the carbon monoxide
emission limit may be demonstrated by using the CEMS according to the
following requirements:

specified in Sec. 60.2710(i). Coal and liquid/gas energy recovery
units with annual average heat input rates less than 250 MMBtu/hr,
incinerators, and small remote incinerators may also elect to
demonstrate compliance using a particulate matter CEMS according to the
procedures in Sec. 60.2730(n) instead of particulate matter testing
with EPA Method 5 at 40 CFR part 60, appendix A-3 and, if applicable,
the continuous opacity monitoring requirements in paragraph (i) of this
section.
(i) For energy recovery units with annual average heat input rates
greater than or equal to 10 MMBTU/hour but less than 250 MMBtu/hr you
must install, operate, certify and maintain a continuous opacity
monitoring system (COMS) according to the procedures in Sec. 60.2730.

CPMS operated in accordance with this section. PM CPMS are suitable in
lieu of using other CMS for monitoring PM compliance (e.g., bag leak
detectors, ESP secondary power, PM scrubber pressure).
(1) Install, calibrate, operate, and maintain your PM CPMS
according to the procedures in your approved site-specific monitoring
plan developed in accordance with paragraphs (l) and (x)(1)(i) through
(x)(1)(iii) of this section.
(i) The operating principle of the PM CPMS must be based on in-

in calculations (report emissions or operating levels and report any
such periods in your annual deviation report);
(iii) Any PM CPMS data recorded during periods of CEMS data during
startup and shutdown, as defined in this subpart.
(7) You must record and make available upon request results of PM
CPMS system performance audits, as well as the dates and duration of

corrective actions necessary to return the PM CPMS to operation
consistent with your site-specific monitoring plan.
(8) For any deviation of the 30-day rolling average PM CPMS average
value from the established operating parameter limit, you must:
(i) Within 48 hours of the deviation, visually inspect the air
pollution control device;
(ii) If inspection of the air pollution control device identifies
the cause of the deviation, take corrective action as soon as possible
and return the PM CPMS measurement to within the established value; and
(iii) Within 30 days of the deviation or at the time of the annual
compliance test, whichever comes first, conduct a PM emissions
compliance test to determine compliance with the PM emissions limit and
to verify. Within 45 days of the deviation, you must re-establish the
CPMS operating limit. You are not required to conduct additional
testing for any deviations that occur between the time of the original
deviation and the PM emissions compliance test required under this
paragraph.
(iv) PM CPMS deviations leading to more than four required
performance tests in a 12-month process operating period (rolling
monthly) constitute a violation of this subpart.
(y) When there is an alkali bypass and/or an in-line coal mill that
exhaust emissions through a separate stack, the combined emissions are
subject to the emission limits applicable to waste-burning kilns. To
determine the kiln-specific emission limit for demonstrating
compliance, you must:
(1) Calculate a kiln-specific emission limit using equation 6:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP21JA15.019
Where:
Cks = Kiln stack concentration (ppmvd, mg/dscm, ng/dscm,
depending on pollutant. Each corrected to 7% O2.)
Qab = Alkali bypass flow rate (volume/hr)
Cab = Alkali bypass concentration (ppmvd, mg/dscm, ng/
dscm, depending on pollutant. Each corrected to 7% O2.)
Qcm = In-line coal mill flow rate (volume/hr)
Ccm = In-line coal mill concentration (ppmvd, mg/dscm,
ng/dscm, depending on pollutant. Each corrected to 7%
O2.)
Qks = Kiln stack flow rate (volume/hr)
(2) Particulate matter concentration must be measured downstream of
the in-line coal mill. All other pollutant concentrations must be
measured either upstream or downstream of the in-line coal mill.

process change, as defined in Sec. 60.2875.
(3) If the initial or any subsequent performance test for any
pollutant in table 2 or tables 6 through 9 of this subpart, as
applicable, demonstrates that the emission level for the pollutant is
no greater than the emission level specified in paragraph (a)(3)(i) or
(a)(3)(ii) of this section, as applicable, and you are not required to
conduct a performance test for the pollutant in response to a request
by the Administrator in paragraph (a)(1) of this section or a process
change in paragraph (a)(2) of this section, you may elect to skip
conducting a performance test for the pollutant for the next 2 years.
You must conduct a performance test for the pollutant during the third
year and no more than 37 months following the previous performance test
for the pollutant. For cadmium and lead, both cadmium and lead must be

from the ash conveying system) for 2 percent of the time during each of
the three 1-hour observation periods.
(4) If you are conducting less frequent testing for a pollutant as
provided in paragraph (a)(3) of this section and a subsequent
performance test for the pollutant indicates that your CISWI unit does
not meet the emission level specified in paragraph (a)(3)(i) or
(a)(3)(ii) of this section, as applicable, you must conduct annual
performance tests for the pollutant according to the schedule specified
in paragraph (a) of this section until you qualify for less frequent
testing for the pollutant as specified in paragraph (a)(3) of this
section.
(b) [Reserved]
Sec. 60.2725 May I conduct a repeat performance test to establish new
operating limits?
(a) Yes. You may conduct a repeat performance test at any time to
establish new values for the operating limits. The Administrator may
request a repeat performance test at any time.
(b) You must repeat the performance test if your feed stream is
different than the feed streams used during any performance test used

Model Rule--Monitoring
Sec. 60.2730 What monitoring equipment must I install and what
parameters must I monitor?
(a) If you are using a wet scrubber to comply with the emission
limitation under Sec. 60.2670, you must install, calibrate (to
manufacturers' specifications), maintain, and operate devices (or
establish methods) for monitoring the value of the operating parameters
used to determine compliance with the operating limits listed in table
3 of this subpart. These devices (or methods) must measure and record
the values for these operating parameters at the frequencies indicated
in table 3 of this subpart at all times except as specified in Sec.
60.2735(a).
(b) If you use a fabric filter to comply with the requirements of
this subpart, you must install, calibrate, maintain, and continuously
operate a bag leak detection system as specified in paragraphs (b)(1)
through (8) of this section.
(1) You must install and operate a bag leak detection system for
each exhaust stack of the fabric filter.
(2) Each bag leak detection system must be installed, operated,
calibrated, and maintained in a manner consistent with the
manufacturer's written specifications and recommendations.
(3) The bag leak detection system must be certified by the
manufacturer to be capable of detecting particulate matter emissions at
concentrations of 10 milligrams per actual cubic meter or less.
(4) The bag leak detection system sensor must provide output of
relative or absolute particulate matter loadings.
(5) The bag leak detection system must be equipped with a device to
continuously record the output signal from the sensor.
(6) The bag leak detection system must be equipped with an alarm
system that will alert automatically an operator when an increase in
relative particulate matter emission over a preset level is detected.
The alarm must be located where it is observed easily by plant
operating personnel.
(7) For positive pressure fabric filter systems, a bag leak
detection system must be installed in each baghouse compartment or
cell. For negative pressure or induced air fabric filters, the bag leak
detector must be installed downstream of the fabric filter.
(8) Where multiple detectors are required, the system's
instrumentation and alarm may be shared among detectors.
(c) If you are using something other than a wet scrubber, activated
carbon, selective non-catalytic reduction, an electrostatic
precipitator, or a dry scrubber to comply with the emission limitations
under Sec. 60.2670, you must install, calibrate (to the manufacturers'
specifications), maintain, and operate the equipment necessary to
monitor compliance with the site-specific operating limits established
using the procedures in Sec. 60.2680.
(d) If you use activated carbon injection to comply with the
emission limitations in this subpart, you must measure the minimum
sorbent flow rate once per hour.
(e) If you use selective noncatalytic reduction to comply with the
emission limitations, you must complete the following:
(1) Following the date on which the initial performance test is
completed or is required to be completed under Sec. 60.2690, whichever
date comes first, ensure that the affected facility does not operate
above the maximum charge rate, or below the minimum secondary chamber
temperature (if applicable to your CISWI unit) or the minimum reagent
flow rate measured as 3-hour block averages at all times.
(2) Operation of the affected facility above the maximum charge
rate, below the minimum secondary chamber temperature and below the
minimum reagent flow rate simultaneously constitute a violation of the
nitrogen oxides emissions limit.
(f) If you use an electrostatic precipitator to comply with the
emission limits of this subpart, you must monitor the secondary power

(g) For waste-burning kilns not equipped with a wet scrubber or dry
scrubber, in place of hydrogen chloride testing with EPA Method 321 at
40 CFR part 63, appendix A, an owner or operator must install,
calibrate, maintain, and operate a CEMS for monitoring hydrogen
chloride emissions discharged to the atmosphere and record the output
of the system. To demonstrate continuous compliance with the hydrogen
chloride emissions limit for units other than waste-burning kilns not
equipped with a wet scrubber or dry scrubber, a facility may substitute
use of a hydrogen chloride CEMS for conducting the hydrogen chloride
annual performance test, monitoring the minimum hydrogen chloride
sorbent flow rate, monitoring the minimum scrubber liquor pH.
(h) To demonstrate continuous compliance with the particulate
matter emissions limit, a facility may substitute use of a particulate
matter CEMS for conducting the particulate matter annual performance
test and other CMS monitoring for PM compliance (e.g., bag leak
detectors, ESP secondary power, PM scrubber pressure).
(i) To demonstrate continuous compliance with the dioxin/furan
emissions limit, a facility may substitute use of a continuous
automated sampling system for the dioxin/furan annual performance test.
You must record the output of the system and analyze the sample
according to EPA Method 23 at 40 CFR part 60, appendix A-7. This option
to use a continuous automated sampling system takes effect on the date
a final performance specification applicable to dioxin/furan from
continuous monitors is published in the Federal Register. The owner or
operator who elects to continuously sample dioxin/furan emissions
instead of
[[Page 3071]]
sampling and testing using EPA Method 23 at 40 CFR part 60, appendix A-
7 must install, calibrate, maintain and operate a continuous automated
sampling system and must comply with the requirements specified in
Sec. 60.58b(p) and (q). A facility may substitute continuous dioxin/
furan monitoring for the minimum sorbent flow rate, if activated carbon
sorbent injection is used solely for compliance with the dioxin/furan
emission limit.
(j) To demonstrate continuous compliance with the mercury emissions
limit, a facility may substitute use of a continuous automated sampling
system for the mercury annual performance test. You must record the
output of the system and analyze the sample at set intervals using any
suitable determinative technique that can meet performance
specification 12B criteria. This option to use a continuous automated
sampling system takes effect on the date a final performance
specification applicable to mercury from monitors is published in the
Federal Register. The owner or operator who elects to continuously
sample mercury emissions instead of sampling and testing using EPA
Method 29 or 30B at 40 CFR part 60, appendix A-8, ASTM D6784-02
(Reapproved 2008) (incorporated by reference, see Sec. 60.17), or an
approved alternative method for measuring mercury emissions, must
install, calibrate, maintain and operate a continuous automated
sampling system and must comply with the requirements specified in
Sec. 60.58b(p) and (q). A facility may substitute continuous mercury
monitoring for the minimum sorbent flow rate, if activated carbon
sorbent injection is used solely for compliance with the mercury
emission limit.
(k) To demonstrate continuous compliance with the nitrogen oxides
emissions limit, a facility may substitute use of a CEMS for the
nitrogen oxides annual performance test to demonstrate compliance with
the nitrogen oxides emissions limits and monitoring the charge rate,
secondary chamber temperature and reagent flow for selective
noncatalytic reduction, if applicable.
(1) Install, calibrate, maintain and operate a CEMS for measuring
nitrogen oxides emissions discharged to the atmosphere and record the
output of the system. The requirements under performance specification
2 of appendix B of this part, the quality assurance procedure 1 of
appendix F of this part and the procedures under Sec. 60.13 must be
followed for installation, evaluation and operation of the CEMS.
(2) Following the date that the initial performance test for
nitrogen oxides is completed or is required to be completed under Sec.
60.2690, compliance with the emission limit for nitrogen oxides
required under Sec. 60.52b(d) must be determined based on the 30-day
rolling average of the hourly emission concentrations using CEMS outlet
data. The 1-hour arithmetic averages must be expressed in parts per
million by volume corrected to 7 percent oxygen (dry basis) and used to
calculate the 30-day rolling average concentrations. CEMS data during
startup and shutdown, as defined in this subpart, are not corrected to
7 percent oxygen, and are measured at stack oxygen content. The 1-hour
arithmetic averages must be calculated using the data points required
under Sec. 60.13(e)(2).
(l) To demonstrate continuous compliance with the sulfur dioxide
emissions limit, a facility may substitute use of a continuous
automated sampling system for the sulfur dioxide annual performance
test to demonstrate compliance with the sulfur dioxide emissions
limits.

sulfur dioxide emissions discharged to the atmosphere and record the
output of the system. The requirements under performance specification
2 of appendix B of this part, the quality assurance requirements of
procedure 1 of appendix F of this part and the procedures under Sec.
60.13 must be followed for installation, evaluation and operation of
the CEMS.
(2) Following the date that the initial performance test for sulfur
dioxide is completed or is required to be completed under Sec.
60.2690, compliance with the sulfur dioxide emission limit may be
determined based on the 30-day rolling average of the hourly arithmetic
average emission concentrations using CEMS outlet data. The 1-hour
arithmetic averages must be expressed in parts per million corrected to
7 percent oxygen (dry basis) and used to calculate the 30-day rolling
average emission concentrations. CEMS data during startup and shutdown,
as defined in this subpart, are not corrected to 7 percent oxygen, and
are measured at stack oxygen content. The 1-hour arithmetic averages
must be calculated using the data points required under Sec.
60.13(e)(2).
(m) For energy recovery units over 10 MMBtu/hr but less than 250
MMBtu/hr annual average heat input rates that do not use a wet
scrubber, fabric filter with bag leak detection system, or particulate
matter CEMS, you must install, operate, certify and maintain a
continuous opacity monitoring system according to the procedures in
paragraphs (m)(1) through (5) of this section by the compliance date
specified in Sec. 60.2670. Energy recovery units that use a
particulate matter CEMS to demonstrate initial and continuing
compliance according to the procedures in Sec. 60.2730(n) are not
required to install a continuous opacity monitoring system and must
perform the annual performance tests for opacity consistent with Sec.
60.2710(f).
(1) Install, operate and maintain each continuous opacity
monitoring system according to performance specification 1 at 40 CFR
part 60, appendix B.
(2) Conduct a performance evaluation of each continuous opacity
monitoring system according to the requirements in Sec. 60.13 and

specified in Sec. 60.13(h)(1).
(5) Determine and record all the 6-minute averages (and 1-hour
block averages as applicable) collected.
(n) For coal and liquid/gas energy recovery units, incinerators,
and small remote incinerators, an owner or operator may elect to
install, calibrate, maintain and operate a CEMS for monitoring
particulate matter emissions discharged to the atmosphere and record
the output of the system. The owner or operator of an affected facility
who continuously monitors particulate matter emissions instead of
conducting performance testing using EPA Method 5 at 40 CFR part 60,
appendix A-3 or, as applicable, monitor with a particulate matter CPMS
according to paragraph (r) of this section, must install, calibrate,
maintain and operate a CEMS and must comply with the requirements
specified in paragraphs (n)(1) through (13) of this section.
(1) Notify the Administrator 1 month before starting use of the
system.
(2) Notify the Administrator 1 month before stopping use of the
system.
(3) The monitor must be installed, evaluated and operated in
accordance with the requirements of performance specification 11 of
appendix B of this part and quality assurance requirements of procedure
2 of appendix F of this part and Sec. 60.13.
(4) The initial performance evaluation must be completed no later
than 180 days after the final compliance date for
[[Page 3072]]
meeting the amended emission limitations, as specified under Sec.
60.2690 or within 180 days of notification to the Administrator of use
of the continuous monitoring system if the owner or operator was
previously determining compliance by Method 5 at 40 CFR part 60,
appendix A-3 performance tests, whichever is later.
(5) The owner or operator of an affected facility may request that
compliance with the particulate matter emission limit be determined
using carbon dioxide measurements corrected to an equivalent of 7
percent oxygen. The relationship between oxygen and carbon dioxide
levels for the affected facility must be established according to the
procedures and methods specified in Sec. 60.2710(s)(5)(i) through
(s)(5)(iv).
(6) The owner or operator of an affected facility must conduct an
initial performance test for particulate matter emissions as required
under Sec. 60.2690. Compliance with the particulate matter emission
limit, if PM CEMS are elected for demonstrating compliance, must be
determined by using the CEMS specified in paragraph (n) of this section
to measure particulate matter. You must calculate a 30-day rolling
average of 1-hour arithmetic average emission concentrations, including
CEMS data during startup and shutdown, as defined in this subpart,
using equation 19-19 in section 12.4.1 of EPA Reference Method 19 at 40
CFR part 60, appendix A-7 of this part.
(7) Compliance with the particulate matter emission limit must be
determined based on the 30-day rolling average calculated using
equation 19-19 in section 12.4.1 of EPA Reference Method 19 at 40 CFR
part 60, Appendix A-7 of the part from the 1-hour arithmetic average of
the CEMS outlet data.
(8) At a minimum, valid continuous monitoring system hourly
averages must be obtained as specified Sec. 60.2735.
(9) The 1-hour arithmetic averages required under paragraph (n)(7)
of this section must be expressed in milligrams per dry standard cubic
meter corrected to 7 percent oxygen (or carbon dioxide)(dry basis) and
must be used to calculate the 30-day rolling average emission
concentrations. CEMS data during startup and shutdown, as defined in
this subpart, are not corrected to 7 percent oxygen, and are measured
at stack oxygen content. The 1-hour arithmetic averages must be
calculated using the data points required under Sec. 60.13(e)(2).
(10) All valid CEMS data must be used in calculating average
emission concentrations even if the minimum CEMS data requirements of
paragraph (n)(8) of this section are not met.
(11) The CEMS must be operated according to performance
specification 11 in appendix B of this part.
(12) During each relative accuracy test run of the CEMS required by
performance specification 11 in appendix B of this part, particulate
matter and oxygen (or carbon dioxide) data must be collected
concurrently (or within a 30-to 60-minute period) by both the CEMS and
the following test methods.
(i) For particulate matter, EPA Reference Method 5 at 40 CFR part
60, appendix A-3 must be used.
(ii) For oxygen (or carbon dioxide), EPA Reference Method 3A or 3B
at 40 CFR part 60, appendix A-2, as applicable, must be used.
(13) Quarterly accuracy determinations and daily calibration drift
tests must be performed in accordance with procedure 2 in appendix F of
this part.
(o) To demonstrate continuous compliance with the carbon monoxide
emissions limit, a facility may substitute use of a continuous
automated sampling system for the carbon monoxide annual performance
test to demonstrate compliance with the carbon monoxide emissions
limits.
(1) Install, calibrate, maintain, and operate a CEMS for measuring
carbon monoxide emissions discharged to the atmosphere and record the
output of the system. The requirements under performance specification
4B of appendix B of this part, the quality assurance procedure 1 of
appendix F of this part and the procedures under Sec. 60.13 must be
followed for installation, evaluation, and operation of the CEMS.
(2) Following the date that the initial performance test for carbon
monoxide is completed or is required to be completed under Sec.
60.2690, compliance with the carbon monoxide emission limit may be
determined based on the 30-day rolling average of the hourly arithmetic
average emission concentrations, including CEMS data during startup and
shutdown as defined in this subpart, using CEMS outlet data. Except for
CEMS data during startup and shutdown, as defined in this subpart, the
1-hour arithmetic averages must be expressed in parts per million
corrected to 7 percent oxygen (dry basis) and used to calculate the 30-
day rolling average emission concentrations. CEMS data collected during
startup or shutdown, as defined in this subpart, are not corrected to 7
percent oxygen, and are measured at stack oxygen content. The 1-hour
arithmetic averages must be calculated using the data points required
under Sec. 60.13(e)(2).
(p) The owner/operator of an affected source with a bypass stack
shall install, calibrate (to manufacturers' specifications), maintain
and operate a device or method for measuring the use of the bypass
stack including date, time and duration.
(q) For energy recovery units with a heat input capacity of 100
MMBtu per hour or greater that do not use a carbon monoxide CEMS, you
must install, operate and maintain the continuous oxygen monitoring
system as defined in Sec. 60.2875 according to the procedures in
paragraphs (q)(1) through (4) of this section.

greater than or equal to 250 MMBtu/hour and waste-burning kilns, you
must install, calibrate, maintain, and operate a PM CPMS and record the
output of the system as specified in paragraphs (r)(1) through (8) of
this section. For other energy recovery units, you may elect to use PM
CPMS operated in accordance with this section. PM CPMS are suitable in
lieu of using other CMS for monitoring PM compliance (e.g., bag leak
detectors, ESP secondary power, PM scrubber pressure).
(1) Install, calibrate, operate, and maintain your PM CPMS
according to the procedures in your approved site-specific monitoring
plan developed in accordance with Sec. 60.2710(l) and (r)(1)(i)
through (iii) of this section.
(i) The operating principle of the PM CPMS must be based on in-
stack or extractive light scatter, light scintillation, beta
attenuation, or mass accumulation of the exhaust gas or representative
sample. The reportable measurement output from the PM CPMS must be
expressed as milliamps or the digital signal equivalent.
[[Page 3073]]
(ii) The PM CPMS must have a cycle time (i.e., period required to
complete sampling, measurement, and reporting for each measurement) no
longer than 60 minutes.
(iii) The PM CPMS must be capable of detecting and responding to

in Sec. 60.2675.
(3) Collect PM CPMS hourly average output data for all energy
recovery unit or waste-burning kiln operating hours. Express the PM
CPMS output as milliamps or the digital signal equivalent.
(4) Calculate the arithmetic 30-day rolling average of all of the
hourly average PM CPMS output collected during all energy recovery unit
or waste-burning kiln operating hours data (milliamps, or the digital
signal equivalent).
(5) You must collect data using the PM CPMS at all times the energy
recovery unit or waste-burning kiln is operating and at the intervals
specified in paragraph (r)(1)(ii) of this section, except for periods
of monitoring system malfunctions, repairs associated with monitoring
system malfunctions, required monitoring system quality assurance or
quality control activities (including, as applicable, calibration
checks and required zero and span adjustments), and any scheduled
maintenance as defined in your site-specific monitoring plan.
(6) You must use all the data collected during all energy recovery
unit or waste-burning kiln operating hours in assessing the compliance
with your operating limit except:
(i) Any data collected during monitoring system malfunctions,
repairs associated with monitoring system malfunctions, or required
monitoring system quality assurance or quality control activities
conducted during monitoring system malfunctions are not used in
calculations (report any such periods in your annual deviation report);
(ii) Any data collected during periods when the monitoring system
is out of control as specified in your site-specific monitoring plan,
repairs associated with periods when the monitoring system is out of
control, or required monitoring system quality assurance or quality
control activities conducted during out-of-control periods are not used
in calculations (report emissions or operating levels and report any
such periods in your annual deviation report);
(iii) Any PM CPMS data recorded during periods of CEMS data during
startup and shutdown, as defined in this subpart.
(7) You must record and make available upon request results of PM
CPMS system performance audits, as well as the dates and duration of
periods from when the PM CPMS is out of control until completion of the
corrective actions necessary to return the PM CPMS to operation
consistent with your site-specific monitoring plan.
(8) For any deviation of the 30-day rolling average PM CPMS average
value from the established operating parameter limit, you must:
(i) Within 48 hours of the deviation, visually inspect the air
pollution control device;
(ii) If inspection of the air pollution control device identifies
the cause of the deviation, take corrective action as soon as possible
and return the PM CPMS measurement to within the established value; and
(iii) Within 30 days of the deviation or at the time of the annual
compliance test, whichever comes first, conduct a PM emissions
compliance test to determine compliance with the PM emissions limit and
to verify the operation of the emissions control device(s). Within 45
days of the deviation, you must re-establish the CPMS operating limit.
You are not required to conduct additional testing for any deviations
that occur between the time of the original deviation and the PM
emissions compliance test required under this paragraph.
(iv) PM CPMS deviations leading to more than four required
performance tests in a 12-month process operating period (rolling
monthly) constitute a violation of this subpart.
(s) If you use a dry scrubber to comply with the emission limits of
this subpart, you must monitor the injection rate of each sorbent and
maintain the 3-hour block averages at or above the operating limits
established during the hydrogen chloride performance test.
Sec. 60.2735 Is there a minimum amount of monitoring data I must
obtain?
For each continuous monitoring system required or optionally
allowed under Sec. 60.2730, you must monitor and collect data
according to this section:
(a) You must operate the monitoring system and collect data at all
required intervals at all times compliance is required except for
periods of monitoring system malfunctions or out-of-control periods,
repairs associated with monitoring system malfunctions or out-of-
control periods (as specified in Sec. 60.2770(o)), and required
monitoring system quality assurance or quality control activities
including, as applicable, calibration checks and required zero and span
adjustments. A monitoring system malfunction is any sudden, infrequent,
not reasonably preventable failure of the monitoring system to provide
valid data. Monitoring system failures that are caused in part by poor
maintenance or careless operation are not malfunctions. You are
required to effect monitoring system repairs in response to monitoring
system malfunctions or out-of-control periods and to return the
monitoring system to operation as expeditiously as practicable.
(b) You may not use data recorded during the monitoring system
malfunctions, repairs associated with monitoring system malfunctions or
out-of control periods, or required monitoring system quality assurance
or control activities in calculations used to report emissions or
operating levels. You must use all the data collected during all other
periods in assessing the operation of the control device and associated
control system.
(c) Except for periods of monitoring system malfunctions or out-of-
control periods, repairs associated with monitoring system malfunctions
or out-of-control periods, and required monitoring system quality
assurance or quality control activities including, as applicable,
calibration checks and required zero and span adjustments, failure to
collect required data is a deviation of the monitoring requirements.

operation, as applicable.
(5) For affected CISWI units that establish operating limits for
controls other than wet scrubbers under Sec. 60.2675(d) through (g) or
Sec. 60.2680, you must maintain data collected for all operating
parameters used to determine compliance with the operating limits. For
energy recovery units using activated carbon injection or a dry
scrubber, you must also maintain records of the load fraction and
corresponding sorbent injection rate records.
(6) If a fabric filter is used to comply with the emission
limitations, you must record the date, time, and duration of each alarm
and the time corrective action was initiated and completed, and a brief
description of the cause of the alarm and the corrective action taken.
You must also record the percent of operating time during each 6-month
period that the alarm sounds, calculated as specified in Sec.

solid waste as that term is defined in 40 CFR part 241. If the
operating unit burns materials other than traditional fuels as defined
in Sec. 241.2 that have been discarded, and you do not keep and
produce records as required by Sec. 60.2740(u), the operating unit is
a CISWI unit. While not all CISWI units will include all of the
following components, a CISWI unit includes, but is not limited to, the
solid waste feed system, grate system, flue gas system, waste heat
recovery equipment, if any, and bottom ash system. The CISWI unit does
not include air pollution control equipment or the stack. The CISWI

In-line kiln/raw mill means a system in a Portland Cement
production process where a dry kiln system is integrated with the raw
mill so that all or a portion of the kiln exhaust gases are used to
perform the drying operation of the raw mill, with no auxiliary heat
source used. In this system the kiln is capable of operating without
the raw mill operating, but the raw mill cannot operate without the
kiln gases, and consequently, the raw mill does not generate a separate
exhaust gas stream.
Kiln means an oven or furnace, including any associated preheater
or precalciner devices, in-line raw mills, in-line coal mills or alkali
bypasses used for processing a substance by burning, firing or drying.
Kilns include cement kilns that produce clinker by heating limestone
and other materials for subsequent production of Portland Cement.
Because the alkali bypass, in-line raw mill and in-line coal mill are
considered an integral part of the kiln, the kiln emissions limits also
apply to the exhaust of the alkali bypass, in-line raw mill and in-line
coal mill.
