II. Background
A. What is the statutory authority for
taking this action?
Section 129 of the CAA requires the
EPA to establish NSPS and EG pursuant
to sections 111 and 129 of the CAA for
new and existing solid waste
incineration units located at commercial
and industrial facilities. This action
amends standards developed under
these authorities.
B. 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, proposed revisions to, and
requested comment on several
provisions of the March 2011 final
NSPS and EG for CISWI units. These
proposed revisions were published on
December 23, 2011 (76 FR 80452).
On February 7, 2013, the EPA
finalized revisions to the CISWI NSPS
and EG (78 FR 9112). In that final
action, the EPA made additional
revisions in response to comments that
had not been proposed in the December
PO 00000
Frm 00003
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4700
23, 2011, Federal Register document.
Subsequently, the EPA received
petitions for reconsideration of the final
2013 action. These petitions assert that
the public did not have sufficient
opportunity to comment on some of the
provisions contained in that final rule.
In response, the EPA proposed to
reconsider four provisions of the 2013
final revisions to the NSPS and EG for
CISWI units (80 FR 3018, January 21,
2015). The EPA took final action on that
proposal on June 23, 2016 (81 FR
40956). We will refer to this final CISWI
rule, as revised through June 2016, as
the 2016 CISWI rule.
Following promulgation of the 2016
CISWI rule, the EPA received requests
from industry stakeholders and
implementing agencies to clarify various
issues with implementation of the
standards. In addition, the EPA
identified certain testing and monitoring
issues and inconsistencies within the
rules that required further clarification
or correction. On June 15, 2018, the EPA
proposed amendments to several
provisions of the 2016 CISWI rule to
address these issues (83 FR 28068). In
addition, the EPA identified additional
regulatory provisions, beyond those
raised by the requests from industry
stakeholders and implementing
agencies, that require clarification and
editorial correction to address
inconsistencies and errors in the final
rules. In this document, the EPA is
taking final action on the June 2018
proposal by promulgating clarifying
changes and corrections to the 2016
CISWI rule.
For more detailed background and
additional information on how this rule
is related to other CAA combustion
rules issued under CAA section 112 and
the Resource Conservation and
Recovery Act definition of solid waste,
refer to the prior final actions discussed
above (76 FR 15704, March 21, 2011; 78
FR 9112, February 7, 2013).
III. Summary of Final Action
In this final rule, we are amending the
2016 CISWI rule to address certain

16APR3
khammond on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with RULES3
15848
Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 73 / Tuesday, April 16, 2019 / Rules and Regulations
issues raised by industry stakeholders
and implementing agencies, as well as
to address other issues identified during
implementation of the CISWI rule.
Provisions affected by the amendments
are: (1) Alternative equivalent emission
limit for mercury (Hg) for the wasteburning kiln subcategory; (2) timing of
initial test and initial performance
evaluation; (3) extension of the date by
which electronic data reporting
requirements must be met; (4)
clarification of non-delegated
authorities; (5) demonstration of initial
and continuous compliance when using
a continuous emissions monitoring
system (CEMS); (6) continuous opacity
monitoring requirements; (7) other
CEMS requirements; (8) clarification of
skip testing requirements; (9) deviation
reporting requirements for continuous
monitoring data; and (10) clarification of
air curtain incinerator (ACI)
requirements. In addition to these
provisions, we are also correcting minor
typographical errors identified in the
rule as noted in section V.B of this
preamble.
This final rule provides meaningful
burden reduction by providing
regulated facilities additional time to
complete initial compliance
demonstrations and by allowing
facilities to comply with productionbased emission limits in lieu of the
concentration-based limits in the 2016
CISWI rule. Specifically, cement kilns
would be allowed to report mercury
emissions on a mass-based production
basis (pounds per million (lb/MM) ton
of clinker) in lieu of reporting on a
concentration based limit (milligrams
per dry standard cubic meter (mg/
dscm)). This alternative provision may
result in lower costs for the cement
industry by making the format of the
mercury emission limits consistent with
the Portland Cement NESHAP (PC
NESHAP). Further, the rule adds
flexibilities in the compliance
demonstration process by extending the
timeline for performance evaluation
tests from 60 days to 180 days and
allows facilities to use CEMS for
demonstrating initial compliance. These
provisions may lower compliance
testing costs as stack testing could be
avoided if the facilities use CEMS.
Moreover, facilities with CEMS will not
be required to retest in the event of
original stack testing failure.
The EPA is taking final action on all
the amendments discussed in the June
15, 2018 (83 FR 28068), proposed rule
and also making two additional changes
to clarify provisions of the 2016 CISWI
rule. A more detailed discussion of the
rationale behind the technical

Jkt 247001
amendments is located in section V.A of
this preamble.
A. EG 30-Day Rolling Average
Provisions
A commenter noted that the 30-day
rolling average language found in 40
CFR 60.2710(c) was inconsistent with
how the averaging period is defined
elsewhere in the rule because it
contained the additional qualifier ‘‘over
the previous 30 days of operation.’’ The
EPA realizes that units may not
necessarily operate continuously, and
that valid operating data exclude
periods when a unit is not operating.
The EPA has removed the phrase ‘‘over
the previous 30 days of operation’’ from
40 CFR 60.2710(c) to be consistent with
similar provisions elsewhere in the EG
and in the NSPS.
B. Clarification of Operating Parameter
Monitoring for a Pollutant’s Control
When CEMS are Being Used for
Continuous Compliance Demonstration
for the Pollutant
The EPA is clarifying that continuous
operating parameter monitoring is not
required when CEMS are used for direct
and continuous compliance
demonstrations for the pollutant. See
section V.A.5 of this preamble for
further discussion.
IV. Public Comments
Public comments on the proposed
rule and the EPA’s responses to these
comments are addressed in a separate
response to comment document,
available in the docket for this action at
Docket ID No. EPA–HQ–OAR–2003–
0119.
V. Rationale for Final Amendments to
2016 CISWI Rule
A. Discussion of Final Technical
Amendments
This section of the preamble explains
the basis for the changes in this final
rule.
1. Alternative Equivalent Emission
Limit for Hg for the Waste-Burning Kiln
Subcategory
The December 23, 2011, proposed
CISWI reconsideration rule preamble
discussed and presented equivalent
emission limits for waste-burning kilns
expressed on a production basis (76 FR
80458). In the February 2013 CISWI
final reconsideration rule preamble, the
EPA again included these equivalent
production-based limits, but at that time
the EPA decided not to codify these
within the rule text. In the process of
approving state plans to implement the
CISWI EG, the EPA has recognized that
there is a benefit to some affected
PO 00000
Frm 00004
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4700
sources and implementing agencies in
codifying the emission limit for Hg for
waste-burning kilns expressed as a
production-based limit (i.e., lb/MM ton
clinker) as an alternative equivalent
standard to the existing concentrationbased standard (i.e., mg/dscm), because
this is the format of the Hg standards
found in the PC NESHAP. The EPA
strives to make compliance with both
CISWI standards and the PC NESHAP as
streamlined and consistent as possible
to facilitate compliance with both
standards because these sources (and
energy recovery units) must comply
with the CISWI standard when they are
combusting solid waste and must
comply with the PC NESHAP or Boiler
Maximum Achievable Control
Technology standards, as applicable,
when combusting nonwaste materials.
Having an equivalent emission limit in
the same units as the PC NESHAP will,
thus, aid affected sources in
demonstrating compliance with both
standards, and will aid implementing
agencies in enforcing the standards.
As discussed in 2011 and repeated in
2013 (78 FR 9122–3, February 7, 2013),
the Hg emission limit of 58 lb/MM ton
clinker and 21 lb/MM ton clinker for
existing and new sources, respectively,
are equivalent to the concentrationbased Hg standards of 0.011 mg/dscm
and 0.0037 mg/dscm within the
currently published 2016 CISWI rule.
To facilitate use of the equivalent
production-based emission limits, the
EPA is adding these emission limits to
the emission limitation tables, and
including recordkeeping, calculation,
and reporting requirements for clinker
production rate as necessary. The
regulatory provisions and calculations
being made final are consistent with
those found in the PC NESHAP, see 40
CFR 63, subpart LLL.
2. Timing of Initial Test and Initial
Performance Evaluation
The current CISWI NSPS and EG
(2016 CISWI Rule) require affected
sources to conduct a performance
evaluation of each continuous
monitoring system within 60 days of
installation of the monitoring system
(see 40 CFR 60.2135 and 60.2700). The
rule also allows up to 180 days from the
final compliance date for affected
sources to conduct an initial
performance test. The EPA received
questions from implementing agencies
asking whether these requirements can
be synchronized to prevent duplicate
testing requirements because the
continuous monitoring system
performance evaluation would require
an emissions test being conducted at the
same time regardless. We recognize that
E:\FR\FM\16APR3.SGM
16APR3
Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 73 / Tuesday, April 16, 2019 / Rules and Regulations
the requirement to conduct a
performance evaluation within 60 days
of installation could present a situation
for sources where the deadline for
conducting the performance evaluation
would precede the deadline for
conducting the initial performance test.
The EPA did not intend to require
sources to conduct duplicative initial
performance tests, and we see a benefit
to sources and implementing agencies to
be able to schedule and conduct both of
these demonstrations at the same time.
Therefore, the EPA is adjusting the
timing of the continuous monitoring
system initial performance evaluation to
allow 180 days from installation to
match the schedule which is allowed for
conducting the initial performance test.
The EPA has determined that making
these timelines consistent (i.e., 180 days
from installation) will streamline
compliance demonstrations and prevent
possible duplicative testing
requirements.

3. Extension of Electronic Data
Reporting Requirement
In this action, the EPA is extending
the electronic reporting requirement
dates found in 40 CFR 60.2235(a) and
60.2795(a). The electronic reporting
provisions promulgated in CISWI
require submittal of initial, annual, and
deviation reports electronically through
the EPA’s Compliance and Emissions
Data Reporting Interface (CEDRI), which
is accessed through the EPA’s Central
Data Exchange. The existing rule
provides that the requirement for
electronic submittal will take effect once
the relevant forms have been available
in CEDRI for 90 calendar days. As stated
in the CISWI reconsideration (81 FR
40956), the EPA intended to make the
requirements of the CISWI rule
consistent with the Electronic Reporting
and Recordkeeping Requirements for
New Source Performance Standards,
which was proposed on March 20, 2015
(80 FR 15100).1 However, the CISWI
reconsideration final rule was published
on June 23, 2016 (81 FR 40956), before
the Electronic Reporting and
Recordkeeping Requirements for New
Source Performance Standards rule 2
1 Originally, the Electronic Reporting and
Recordkeeping Requirements for New Source
Performance Standards rule included CISWI as one
of the affected subparts. However, because the
CISWI reconsideration package was proposed at
nearly the same time as that rule, CISWI was
removed as an affected subpart, and the language
associated with the Electronic Reporting and
Recordkeeping Requirements for New Source
Performance Standards rule was inserted into the
CISWI reconsideration proposal.
2 This final rule was signed on December 21,
2016, but was withdrawn from the Office of the
Federal Register prior to publication.
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 247001
was finalized and did not take into
account comments received on that rule.
The extension for CISWI units in this
action is consistent with the EPA’s
approach to electronic reporting
outlined in the Electronic Reporting and
Recordkeeping Requirements for New
Source Performance Standards final
rule.3 This approach has also been used
in recent EPA rulemakings (e.g.,
National Emissions Standards for
Hazardous Air Pollutants for Chemical
Recovery Combustion Sources at Kraft,
Soda, Sulfite, and Stand-Alone Semi
Chemical Pulp Mills, 82 FR 47328
(October 11, 2017); National Emissions
Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants:
Publicly Owned Treatment Works
Residual Risk and Technology Review,
82 FR 49513, October 26, 2017). The
extension requires electronic
submission of initial, annual, and
deviation reports 2 years from
publication of the final rule or 1 year
after the reporting form becomes
available in CEDRI, whichever date is
later. This extension is necessary to
allow the EPA time to develop and
adequately test the new forms and for
regulated entities to become familiar
with the forms and reprogram systems
that collect data for periodic reports
once the forms are available. The
extension also allows state, local, and
tribal agencies more time to implement
electronic reporting and to make any
needed permit revisions to
accommodate electronic reporting and
allows for development of third-party
software to populate the reporting
forms.
4. Clarification of Non-Delegated
Authorities
In this action, the EPA is making final
corrections to the authorities listed in 40
CFR 60.2030(c). Specifically, the
reference to 40 CFR 60.2125(j) is an
outdated reference to previously
proposed, but never promulgated,
performance test waiver provisions.
These provisions were included in the
June 4, 2010, CISWI proposed rule (see
75 FR 31975), but were not made final
in the March 21, 2011, final rule (see 76
FR 15752–3). This reference was
inadvertently not included in the final
rule to reflect that the proposed 40 CFR
60.2125(j) was not finalized. Another
correction relates to the provisions of 40
CFR 60.2030(c)(10) that require
obtaining a determination from the EPA
of whether a qualifying small power
facility or cogeneration facility is

combusting homogeneous waste. We
intended to remove these provisions in
the 2013 CISWI final rule as part of the
removal of the definition of
homogeneous waste (see 78 FR 9124,
February 7, 2013). As discussed in the
preamble to the February 7, 2013, final
revision action, the EPA determined
that the proposed ‘‘definition and
provisions could be interpreted in a
manner that would be unduly
restrictive.’’ Therefore, the EPA did not
include a definition of ‘‘homogeneous
waste’’ in the final CISWI rule and the
Agency stated it was (without actually
amending the CFR text to reflect its
intent) ‘‘removing the requirement that
qualifying small power producers and
qualifying cogeneration facilities that
combust solid waste obtain a
determination from the EPA that such
waste is homogeneous.’’ Id.
Accordingly, the EPA is removing
paragraph 40 CFR 60.2030(c)(10). While
no other authorities have been added or
removed from this list, the EPA is
making minor revisions to streamline
the section by removing the reserved
subparagraphs (i.e., (5) and (10)) and
renumbering the subparagraphs
sequentially.
In this action, we are also clarifying,
with respect to the EG, which
authorities will not be delegated.
Language in 40 CFR 60.2542 simply
contains a reference to the analogous
paragraph (40 CFR 60.2030(c)) within
the CISWI NSPS. However, since the
CISWI NSPS applies to new sources,
applicability of these non-delegated
authorities to state plans implementing
the emission guidelines for existing
sources was unclear to implementing
agencies. To remove this confusion, we
have eliminated the cross reference to
40 CFR 60.2030(c) and have instead
provided the specific details on which
authorities will not be delegated within
the text of 40 CFR 60.2542. The final list
of authorities in 40 CFR 60.2542
matches the updated list found in 40
CFR 60.2030(c), with the appropriate
adjustments made to subpart section
cross references.
5. Demonstrating Initial Compliance
When Using CEMS
As the EPA noted at proposal, (see 83
FR 28072, June 15, 2018), the provisions
regarding CEMS monitoring for
demonstrating initial compliance are
inconsistent and somewhat unclear. The
final CISWI rules require some sources
to demonstrate compliance using CEMS,
and allow the option for any source to
use CEMS to demonstrate compliance
‘‘with any of the emission limits of this
subpart’’ (see 40 CFR 60.2145(u) and
60.2710(u)). However, for most of the

paragraphs containing the pollutantspecific CEMS requirements, the
language was unclear on whether these
demonstrations were applicable to
demonstrating initial compliance, with
the exception of carbon monoxide (CO).
The EPA’s intent was to allow CEMS for
demonstrating initial compliance for
any pollutant (i.e., with any of the
emission limits of this subpart). To
express the EPA’s intent of providing
this flexibility for compliance
demonstration more clearly, we have
revised several sections of the rule in
this final action. For example, the initial
compliance requirements in 40 CFR
60.2135 and 60.2700 have been revised
to also reflect use of CEMS data as an
initial compliance demonstration
alternative to an emissions test,
provided that the initial CEMS
performance evaluation has been
conducted prior to collecting CEMS data
used for the initial performance test.
Likewise, language surrounding the
CEMS requirements found in 40 CFR
60.2145, 60.2165, 60.2710, and 60.2730,
and the emission limitation tables, has
been revised and streamlined to clarify
that CEMS data may be used to
demonstrate compliance (i.e., initial and
continuing) with the standards.
In addition to clarifying initial
compliance demonstrations using
CEMS, commenters suggested a similar
issue occurs with continuous parametric
monitoring requirements for sources
that use CEMS to demonstrate
compliance for a pollutant. It was not
the EPA’s intent to require duplicative
operating parameter monitoring for
pollutants if emissions for the pollutants
are directly and continuously monitored
using CEMS. Therefore, the EPA has
clarified the CEMS requirements in 40
CFR 60.2165 and 40 CFR 60.2730 to
indicate that sources using CEMS to
monitor for a pollutant are not required
to monitor the associated operating
parameters unless it is necessary for
compliance with the monitoring
requirements of another regulated
pollutant. This clarification is not
removing any monitoring requirements,
but only acknowledging that direct
pollutant emission measurement with
CEMS is a suitable, if not even
preferential, alternative to continuous
parameter monitoring.
6. Clarification of Continuous Opacity
Monitoring System (COMS)
Requirements
In addition to the clarifications to
CEMS provisions, we are also revising
40 CFR 60.2145(i) and 60.2710(i) to
clarify our intent regarding the types of
units required to install COMS and to
make it consistent with the COMS
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:25 Apr 15, 2019
Jkt 247001
monitoring requirement language found
in 40 CFR 60.2165(m) and 60.2730(m),
respectively. We are adding language
clarifying that energy recovery units
between 10 and 250 million British
thermal units/hour design heat input
that are equipped with electrostatic
precipitators (ESP), particulate matter
CEMS, or particulate matter continuous
parameter monitoring systems (CPMS)
are not required to additionally install
and operate COMS because these units
have an air pollution control device that
has continuous parameter monitoring
requirements or are using continuous
particulate matter monitoring compliant
with provisions within the rule already
(see 40 CFR 60.2145(q), for example).
The rule currently excludes the COMS
requirement for energy recovery units
using other types of particulate matter
control devices or that use particulate
matter CEMS for continuous particulate
matter monitoring, but inadvertently
omitted ESPs and particulate matter
CPMS from the list. Therefore, we are
adding ‘‘electrostatic precipitator’’ and
‘‘particulate matter CPMS’’ to the list
(that currently includes CO wet
scrubbers and fabric filters) found in 40
CFR 60.2165(m) and 60.2730(m) as
types of units that do not require COMS.
As a further clarification, we are also
amending the text to 40 CFR 60.2145(i)
and 60.2710(i) to clearly specify that the
COMS requirement is applicable to
units within the specified size range
‘‘that do not use a wet scrubber, fabric
filter with bag leak detection system, an
electrostatic precipitator, particulate
matter CEMS, or particulate matter
CPMS.’’
7. Clarification of Other CEMS
Requirements
In addition to the CEMS-related
requirements discussed above, the EPA
is making two other CEMS-related
clarifications in this final rule: (1) To
not require CO CEMS for new wasteburning kilns; and (2) to remove
outdated notification requirements
when particulate matter CEMS are being
used. For the CO CEMS issue, the rule
as finalized in February 7, 2013,
erroneously includes a requirement at
40 CFR 60.2145(j) for new wasteburning kilns to demonstrate
compliance with CO emission limits
using CEMS. This issue was not
corrected in the 2016 final rules and is
inconsistent with the requirements
found in Table 7 to 40 CFR 60, subpart
CCCC, and with the EPA’s intent to
remove CO CEMS requirements for new
CISWI sources, as stated in the February
7, 2013, final CISWI rules (see 78 FR
9120). Carbon monoxide CEMS are
allowed as an alternative compliance
PO 00000
Frm 00006
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4700
demonstration, but sources who adopt
this alternative are not required to
conduct annual testing using EPA
Method 10. To make this clarification,
the EPA is revising 40 CFR 60.2145(j) to
reflect that CO is one of the pollutants
for which an annual test is required and
removing CO from the list of pollutants
requiring CEMS for demonstrating
compliance.
Regarding the removal of outdated
notification requirements when
particulate matter CEMS are used, the
EPA is removing the outdated
requirements to notify the
Administrator prior to beginning and
stopping use of an optional particulate
matter CEMS. These provisions are 40
CFR 60.2165(n)(1) and (2), and 40 CFR
60.2730(n)(1) and (2). These provisions
are an inadvertent holdover from model
provisions from a prior rule. CEMS
technology and application has
progressed to an extent that these
notifications are no longer needed or
desired by the EPA. Furthermore, these
notifications do not appear in the
reporting requirements outlined in the
reporting requirement tables (Table 4 to
40 CFR part 60, subpart CCCC and Table
3 to 40 CFR part 60, subpart DDDD), nor
the other notification requirements, so
they introduced an unintended
inconsistency within the rule. To
resolve this, we are deleting the current
subparagraphs (1) and (2) of these
sections and renumbering the remaining
subparagraphs sequentially to
streamline these requirements.
8. Clarification of Reduced Testing
Requirements
It has come to the EPA’s attention that
there is confusion regarding how
reduced testing is applied after a source
has demonstrated good performance and
has skipped testing for 2 years (see 40
CFR 60.2155 and 60.2720). Stakeholders
suggest that the current CISWI rule
language would have a good-performing
source return to an annual testing
schedule after being able to skip testing
for 2 years, with no opportunity for
additional reduced testing. It was not
the EPA’s intent to only offer this
allowance once when developing these
provisions. To the contrary, the EPA
intended this allowance to be available
for as long as good performance could
be reaffirmed with testing every 3 years
instead of annually (see 76 FR 15714,
March 21, 2011). The intended sequence
of testing consisted of two consecutive
annual tests showing 75 percent or less
of the applicable standard is achieved;
followed by 2 years of testing being
skipped; followed by an annual test
showing that 75 percent of the standard
is achieved; followed by 2 years of
E:\FR\FM\16APR3.SGM
16APR3
Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 73 / Tuesday, April 16, 2019 / Rules and Regulations
testing being skipped; etc. In other
words, starting with the initial
compliance test (first year), for the first
and second years, a source would
perform compliance testing; for the
third and fourth years, the source could
skip testing (if both the first and secondyear results showed that the source
achieves 75 percent or less of the
applicable standard); for the fifth year a
source would perform compliance
testing; for the sixth and seventh years,
the source could skip testing (if the
fifth-year results showed that the source
achieves 75 percent or less of the
applicable standard); for the eighth year,
a source would perform compliance
testing, and so on. Since the
promulgation of these standards, these
skip testing provisions have been
refined and promulgated during
regulatory development efforts in the
CAA section 129 rulemakings for
sewage sludge incinerators (40 CFR part
60, subparts LLLL and MMMM). In this
action, the EPA is clarifying the ongoing
allowance for reduced testing provisions
we intended, based largely on language
used in the recent sewage sludge
incinerator rule (see 81 FR 26039, April
29, 2016).

9. Clarification of Deviation Reporting
Requirements for Continuous
Monitoring Data
The EPA has become aware of some
unclear requirements in the deviation
reporting requirements of 40 CFR
60.2215(a) and 60.2775(a). In particular,
the requirements for continuously
measured parameters or emissions using
CEMS are not clearly outlined within
these sections. While these provisions
are clear for 3-hour average parameters
and performance testing, the EPA
recognizes that 30-day averages allowed
for energy recovery units and particulate
matter CEMS were inadvertently
omitted, as well as requirements for any
other 30-day average measured using
CEMS that deviated from an emission
limit. The EPA is adding language to
these paragraphs to clarify that
deviations for these other operating
parameters or CEMS measurements that
deviate from an operating limit or
emissions limitation must be included
in a deviation report.
10. Clarification of ACI Requirements
Since promulgation of the 2016 CISWI
final rule, the EPA has received various
questions from implementing agencies
regarding the applicability of CISWI to
ACI. While the limited requirements of
ACIs burning only wood waste, clean
lumber, or a mixture of wood waste,
clean lumber, and/or yard waste are
defined within the rule, ACIs’ status as
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:25 Apr 15, 2019
Jkt 247001
a CISWI-affected source is unclear to
some implementing agencies as they
work to prepare state plans and negative
declarations because of confusing
language in the 2016 CISWI Rule. See 40
CFR 60.2550. Specifically, the section of
the EG addressing the units subject to
the final CISWI rule includes a reference
to ACI in 40 CFR 60.2550(a)(1), but 40
CFR 60.2550(a)(2) further states that
only units that meet the definition of a
CISWI unit are subject to the final rule,
and ACIs do not meet the regulatory
definition of a CISWI unit.4
Notwithstanding that provision, the
record demonstrates that the EPA
considers ACIs located at commercial
and industrial facilities and otherwise
meeting the definition of an ACI as
being CISWI-affected sources. See CAA
section 129(g)(1)(C) (defining ACIs) and
40 CFR 60.2245–2260 of the NSPS and
60.2810–2870 of the EG (setting forth
the CISWI EG requirements applicable
to ACI). Facilities can have CISWIaffected ACIs even if they do not have
CISWI units located at the facility. If an
ACI begins burning solid waste as
defined in the Non Hazardous
Secondary Materials rule (see 40 CFR
part 241) in addition to, or instead of,
wood waste, clean lumber, or a mixture
of wood waste, clean lumber, and/or
yard waste, it is a solid waste
incineration unit that is subject to the
applicable numerical emission
standards contained in CISWI or
another CAA section 129 standard,
depending on the type of waste
combusted (e.g., such as a unit burning
more than 30-percent municipal solid
waste would be a municipal solid waste
incineration unit instead of a CISWI
unit).
The EPA’s intent is further
demonstrated in a response to comment
on title V permitting requirements for
ACIs in the preamble to the March 21,
2011, final CISWI rule (76 FR 15741):
Commenters are correct that ACIs are
not solid waste incineration units
pursuant to CAA section 129(g)(1)(C),
but that is only correct if the units ‘‘only
burn wood wastes, yard wastes and
clean lumber and [they] * * * comply
with opacity limitations to be
established by the Administrator by
rule.’’ The EPA has established opacity
limitations for ACIs pursuant to CAA
sections 111 and 129.
Pursuant to CAA section 502(a),
sources subject to standards or
regulations under CAA section 111 must
obtain a title V permit; therefore, ACIs
4 The phrasing of the regulations at 40 CFR
60.2010 and 60.2015 of the NSPS similarly confuse
the applicability of the final CISWI rule to new
ACIs located at commercial and industrial facilities.
PO 00000
Frm 00007

are required to obtain a title V permit.
As commenters note, the EPA may
exempt minor and area sources from the
requirement to obtain a title V permit,
but the EPA must first determine that
compliance with title V requirements is
‘‘impracticable, infeasible, or
unnecessarily burdensome’’ for the
sources before exempting them (CAA
section 502(a)). The EPA has not made
the necessary finding pursuant to CAA
section 502(a) for ACIs in any of the
CAA section 129 rulemakings, and we
believe that ACIs exist at CAA section
129 facilities other than at the
commercial and industrial facilities
subject to this final rule. Because we
think it is important to treat all ACIs in
the same manner, we decline to
consider a title V exemption for minor
and area source ACIs at commercial and
industrial facilities.
As the record demonstrates, the EPA
determined that ACIs located at
commercial and industrial facilities are
CISWI-affected sources that must be
included in state plans and regulated
consistent with the final CISWI
standards applicable to such units. To
address the uncertainty created by the
CISWI rule, the EPA is clarifying the
affected source status of ACIs by
revising the regulations to make clear
that ‘‘air curtain incinerators’’ do not
need to meet the definition of a ‘‘CISWI
unit’’ to be subject to the CISWI rule (40
CFR 60.2010 of the NSPS and 40 CFR
60.2500 and 60.2550 of the EG).
B. Typographical Errors and Corrections
In this action, we are also revising the
final rule to correct minor typographical
errors and clarify provisions that are
unclear. The list of these changes is
included in the Typographical Errors
and Corrections for Final Technical
Amendments memorandum in Docket
ID No. EPA–OAR–HQ–2003–0119.
C. Environmental, Energy, and
Economic Impacts
This action makes technical and
clarifying corrections to aid in
implementation and compliance, but
does not make substantive changes to
the February 7, 2013, final CISWI rule
(78 FR 9112).5 As such, there are no
environmental, energy, or economic
impacts associated with this final
action. The impacts associated with the
CISWI rule were discussed in detail in
5 The June 23, 2016, final CISWI rule
amendments (81 FR 40956) also did not entail any
environmental, energy or economic impacts, and
therefore the February 7, 2013, final CISWI rule
presents the impacts associated with the CISWI
rule.

Reviews
Additional information about these
statutes and Executive Orders can be
found at https://www.epa.gov/lawsregulations/laws-and-executive-orders.
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. Executive Order 13771: Reducing
Regulations and Controlling Regulatory
Costs
This action is considered an
Executive Order 13771 deregulatory
action. This final rule provides
meaningful burden reduction by
providing additional regulatory
flexibilities that address several
implementation issues raised by the
stakeholders.
khammond on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with RULES3
C. Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA)
This action does not impose any new
information collection burden under the
PRA. OMB has previously approved the
information collection activities
contained in the existing regulations
and has assigned OMB Control number
2060–0662 for 40 CFR part 60, subpart
CCCC, and OMB Control number 2060–
0664 for 40 CFR part 60, subpart DDDD.
This action is believed to result in no
changes to the information collection
requirements of the 2016 CISWI rule, so
that the information collection estimate
of project cost and hour burden from the
2016 CISWI Rule have not been revised.
D. Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA)
I certify that this action will not have
a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities
under the RFA. 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 final
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 2016 CISWI rule, which
also did not impose any additional
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:25 Apr 15, 2019
Jkt 247001
regulatory requirements beyond 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.
E. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
(UMRA)
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. The action imposes no
enforceable duty on any state, local, or
tribal governments, or the private sector.
F. 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.
G. Executive Order 13175: Consultation
and Coordination With Indian Tribal
Governments
This action does not have tribal
implications as specified in Executive
Order 13175. 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.
H. 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.
I. 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.
J. National Technology Transfer and
Advancement Act (NTTAA)
This rulemaking does not involve
technical standards.
K. Executive Order 12898: Federal
Actions To Address Environmental
Justice in Minority Populations and
Low-Income Populations
The EPA believes that this action does
not have disproportionately high and
adverse human health or environmental
effects on minority populations, lowincome populations, and/or indigenous
peoples, as specified in Executive Order
12898 (58 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
It does not affect the level of
protection provided to human health or
the environment. The final corrections
do not relax the control measures on
sources regulated by the 2016 CISWI
rule, which also did not relax any
control measures on sources regulated
by the February 2013 final CISWI rule.
Therefore, this final action will not
cause emissions increases from these
sources. The February 2013 final CISWI
rule reduced 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.
L. Congressional Review Act (CRA)
This action is subject to the CRA, and
the EPA will submit a rule report to
each House of the Congress and to the
Comptroller General of the United
States. This action is not a ‘‘major rule’’
as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).

§ 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)
of this section, 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; and
(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
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:25 Apr 15, 2019
Jkt 247001
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; and
(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
hydrogen chloride (HCl) emission
limitation.
(b) You must meet the operating
limits established during the initial
performance test 60 days after your
CISWI 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 and you
do not use a particulate matter (PM)
continuous parameter monitoring
system (CPMS) for monitoring PM
compliance, 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 and you do not use
a PM CPMS for monitoring PM
compliance, 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
PO 00000
Frm 00013
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4700
15857
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), 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 for
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 either a particulate
matter CEMS or a particulate matter
CPMS, 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

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; and

bypass stack during a performance test
shall invalidate the performance test.
(b) As an alternative to conducting a
performance test, as required under
§§ 60.2125 and 60.2105, you may use a
30-day rolling average of the 1-hour
arithmetic average CEMS data,
including CEMS data during startup and
shutdown as defined in this subpart, to
determine compliance with the
emission limitations in Table 1 of this
subpart or tables 5 through 8 of this
subpart. You must conduct a
performance evaluation of each
continuous monitoring system within
180 days of installation of the
monitoring system. The initial
performance evaluation must be
conducted prior to collecting CEMS data
that will be used for the initial
compliance demonstration.
§ 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

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 fuelto-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

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

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 § 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
§ 60.2110 or established under § 60.2115
and as specified in § 60.2170. Use 3hour block average values to determine
compliance (except for baghouse leak
detection system alarms) unless a
different averaging period is established
under § 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.

input rates greater than or equal to 250
million British thermal units/hour
(MMBtu/hr) may elect to demonstrate
initial and continuous compliance with
the particulate matter emissions limit
using a particulate matter CEMS
according to the procedures in
§ 60.2165(n) instead of the PM CPMS
specified in § 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 initial and continuous
compliance using a particulate matter
CEMS according to the procedures in
§ 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

than 250 MMBtu/hr that do not use a
wet scrubber, fabric filter with bag leak
detection system, an electrostatic
precipitator, particulate matter CEMS,
or particulate matter CPMS, you must
install, operate, certify and maintain a
continuous opacity monitoring system
(COMS) according to the procedures in
§ 60.2165(m).
(j) For waste-burning kilns, you must
conduct an annual performance test for
cadmium, lead, carbon monoxide,
dioxins/furans and hydrogen chloride as
listed in Table 7 of this subpart, unless
you choose to demonstrate initial and
continuous compliance using CEMS, as
allowed in paragraph (u) of this section.
If you do not use an acid gas wet
scrubber or dry scrubber, you must
determine compliance with the
hydrogen chloride emissions limit using
a HCl CEMS according to the
requirements in paragraph (j)(1) of this
section. You must determine
compliance with the mercury emissions
limit using a mercury CEMS or an
integrated sorbent trap monitoring
system according to paragraph (j)(2) of

determine compliance with particulate
matter using CPMS.
(1) If you monitor compliance with
the HCl emissions limit by operating an
HCl CEMS, you must do so in
accordance with Performance
Specification 15 (PS 15) of appendix B
to 40 CFR part 60 or PS 18 of appendix
B to 40 CFR part 60. You must operate,
maintain, and quality assure a HCl
CEMS installed and certified under PS
15 according to the quality assurance
requirements in Procedure 1 of
appendix F to 40 CFR part 60 except
that the Relative Accuracy Test Audit
requirements of Procedure 1 must be
replaced with the validation
requirements and criteria of sections
11.1.1 and 12.0 of PS 15. You must
operate, maintain and quality assure a
HCl CEMS installed and certified under
PS 18 according to the quality assurance
requirements in Procedure 6 of
appendix F to 40 CFR part 60. For any
performance specification that you use,
you must use Method 321 of appendix
A to 40 CFR part 63 as the reference test
method for conducting relative accuracy
testing. The span value and calibration
requirements in paragraphs (j)(1)(i) and
(ii) of this section apply to all HCl
CEMS used under this subpart:
(i) You must use a measurement span
value for any HCl CEMS of 0–10 ppmvw
unless the monitor is installed on a kiln
without an inline raw mill. Kilns
without an inline raw mill may use a
higher span value sufficient to quantify
all expected emissions concentrations.
The HCl CEMS data recorder output
range must include the full range of
expected HCl concentration values
which would include those expected
during ‘‘mill off’’ conditions. The
corresponding data recorder range shall
be documented in the site-specific
monitoring plan and associated records;
(ii) In order to quality assure data
measured above the span value, you
must use one of the three options in
paragraphs (j)(1)(ii)(A) through (C) of
this section:
(A) Include a second span that
encompasses the HCl emission
concentrations expected to be
encountered during ‘‘mill off’’
conditions. This second span may be
rounded to a multiple of 5 ppm of total
HCl. The requirements of the
appropriate HCl monitor performance
specification shall be followed for this
second span with the exception that a
RATA with the mill off is not required;
(B) Quality assure any data above the
span value by proving instrument
linearity beyond the span value
established in paragraph (j)(1)(i) of this
section using the following procedure.
Conduct a weekly ‘‘above span
linearity’’ calibration challenge of the
monitoring system using a reference gas
with a certified value greater than your
highest expected hourly concentration
or greater than 75% of the highest
measured hourly concentration. The
‘‘above span’’ reference gas must meet
the requirements of the applicable
performance specification and must be
introduced to the measurement system
at the probe. Record and report the
results of this procedure as you would
for a daily calibration. The ‘‘above span
linearity’’ challenge is successful if the
value measured by the HCl CEMS falls
within 10 percent of the certified value
of the reference gas. If the value
measured by the HCl CEMS during the
above span linearity challenge exceeds
10 percent of the certified value of the
reference gas, the monitoring system
must be evaluated and repaired and a
new ‘‘above span linearity’’ challenge
met before returning the HCl CEMS to
service, or data above span from the HCl
CEMS must be subject to the quality
assurance procedures established in
(j)(1)(ii)(D) of this section. In this
manner values measured by the HCl
CEMS during the above span linearity
challenge exceeding +/¥20 percent of
the certified value of the reference gas
must be normalized using equation 6;
(C) Quality assure any data above the
span value established in paragraph
(j)(1)(i) of this section using the
following procedure. Any time two
consecutive one-hour average measured
concentration of HCl exceeds the span
value you must, within 24 hours before
or after, introduce a higher, ‘‘above
span’’ HCl reference gas standard to the
HCl CEMS. The ‘‘above span’’ reference
gas must meet the requirements of the
applicable performance specification
and target a concentration level between
50 and 150 percent of the highest
expected hourly concentration
measured during the period of
measurements above span, and must be
introduced at the probe. While this
target represents a desired concentration
range that is not always achievable in
practice, it is expected that the intent to
meet this range is demonstrated by the
value of the reference gas. Expected
values may include above span
calibrations done before or after the
above-span measurement period. Record
and report the results of this procedure
as you would for a daily calibration. The
‘‘above span’’ calibration is successful if
the value measured by the HCl CEMS is
within 20 percent of the certified value
of the reference gas. If the value
measured by the HCl CEMS is not
within 20 percent of the certified value
of the reference gas, then you must
normalize the stack gas values measured
above span as described in paragraph
(j)(1)(ii)(D) of this section. If the ‘‘above
span’’ calibration is conducted during
the period when measured emissions
are above span and there is a failure to
collect the one data point in an hour
due to the calibration duration, then you
must determine the emissions average
for that missed hour as the average of
hourly averages for the hour preceding
the missed hour and the hour following
the missed hour. In an hour where an
‘‘above span’’ calibration is being
conducted and one or more data points
are collected, the emissions average is
represented by the average of all valid
data points collected in that hour;
(D) In the event that the ‘‘above span’’
calibration is not successful (i.e., the
HCl CEMS measured value is not within
20 percent of the certified value of the
reference gas), then you must normalize
the one-hour average stack gas values
measured above the span during the 24hour period preceding or following the
‘‘above span’’ calibration for reporting
based on the HCl CEMS response to the
reference gas as shown in equation 6:
Only one ‘‘above span’’ calibration is
needed per 24-hour period.
(2) Compliance with the mercury
emissions limit must be determined
using a mercury CEMS or integrated
sorbent trap monitoring system
according to the following requirements:
(i) You must operate a mercury CEMS
system in accordance with performance
specification 12A of 40 CFR part 60,
appendix B or an integrated sorbent trap
monitoring system in accordance with
performance specification 12B of 40

monitoring systems must be quality
assured according to procedure 5 of 40

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 60minute period) with both the CEMS and

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 (iv) of this
section. This relationship may be reestablished 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 § 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;
(iii) Each sample must represent a 1hour average; and
(iv) A minimum of three runs must be

any of the emission limits of this
subpart, you must complete the
following:

Method 19 at appendix A–7 of this part.
The 1-hour arithmetic averages for
CEMS must be calculated using the data
points required under § 60.13(e)(2).
Except for CEMS or integrated sorbent
trap monitoring systems data during
startup and shutdown, the 1-hour
arithmetic averages used to calculate the
30-day rolling average emission
concentrations must be corrected to 7
percent oxygen (dry basis). Integrated
sorbent trap monitoring systems or
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;
and
(2) Operate all CEMS and integrated
sorbent trap monitoring systems in
accordance with the applicable
procedures under appendices B and F of
this part.

the lowest hourly average oxygen
concentration measured during the most
recent CO performance test; and
(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.
(x) For energy recovery units with
annual average heat input rates greater
than or equal to 250 MMBtu/hr 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 (8) of this section. For other

accordance with paragraphs (l) and
(x)(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 the exhaust
gas or representative sample. The
reportable measurement output from the
PM CPMS must be expressed as
milliamps or the 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; and
(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 sitespecific operating limit in accordance
with the results of the performance test
according to the procedures specified in
§ 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

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 sitespecific monitoring plan.
(6) You must use all the data collected
during all energy recovery unit or wasteburning 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 outof-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;
(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. 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 paragraph (x) of this
section; and
(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),
E:\FR\FM\16APR3.SGM
16APR3
Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 73 / Tuesday, April 16, 2019 / Rules and Regulations
the combined emissions are subject to
the emission limits applicable to wasteburning kilns. To determine the kiln-
specific emission limit for
demonstrating compliance, you must:
(1) Calculate a kiln-specific emission
limit using equation 7:
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)
specified in § 60.2160. New operating
limits become effective on the date that
the performance test report is submitted
to the EPA’s Central Data Exchange or
postmarked, per the requirements of
§ 60.2235(b). The Administrator may
request a repeat performance test at any
time;
(2) You must repeat the performance
test within 60 days of a process change,
as defined in § 60.2265;
(3) You can conduct performance tests
less often if you meet the following
conditions: your performance tests for
the pollutant for at least 2 consecutive
performance tests demonstrates that the
emission level for the pollutant is no
greater than the emission level specified
in paragraph (a)(3)(i) or (ii) of this
section, as applicable; there are no
changes in the operation of the affected
source or air pollution control
equipment that could increase
emissions; 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. In this case, you do
not have to conduct a performance test
for that pollutant for the next 2 years.
You must conduct a performance test
for the pollutant no more than 37
months following the previous
performance test for the pollutant. If the
emission level for your CISWI continues
to meet the emission level specified in
paragraph (a)(3)(i) or (ii) of this section,
as applicable, you may choose to
conduct performance tests for the
pollutant every third year, as long as
there are no changes in the operation of
the affected source or air pollution
control equipment that could increase
emissions. Each such performance test
must be conducted no more than 37
months after the previous performance
test.
(i) For particulate matter, hydrogen
chloride, mercury, nitrogen oxides,
sulfur dioxide, cadmium, lead and
dioxins/furans, the emission level equal
to 75 percent of the applicable emission
limit in table 1 or tables 5 through 8 of
this subpart, as applicable; and
(ii) For fugitive emissions, visible
emissions (of combustion ash from the
ash conveying system) for 2 percent of
the time during each of 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
does not meet the emission level
specified in paragraph (a)(3)(i) or (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]
(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; and
(3) For purposes of determining the
combined emissions from kilns
equipped with an alkali bypass or that
exhaust kiln gases to a coal mill that
exhausts through a separate stack,
instead of installing a CEMS or PM
CPMS on the alkali bypass stack or inline coal mill stack, the results of the
initial and subsequent performance test
can be used to demonstrate compliance
with the relevant emissions limit. A
performance test must be conducted on
an annual basis (between 11 and 13
calendar months following the previous
performance test).

your CISWI) or the minimum reagent
flow rate measured as 3-hour block
averages at all times; and
(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 and you
do not use a PM CPMS for monitoring
PM compliance, 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, you must install, calibrate,
maintain, and operate a CEMS for
monitoring hydrogen chloride emissions
discharged to the atmosphere, as
specified in § 60.2145(j), and record the
output of the system. You may
substitute use of a HCl CEMS for
conducting the HCl initial and annual
testing with EPA Method 321 at 40 CFR
part 63, appendix A. 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 initial and annual
performance test. For units equipped
with a hydrogen chloride CEMS, you are

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
§ 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 initial and
continuous compliance with the
mercury emissions limit, a facility may
substitute use of a mercury CEMS or an
integrated sorbent trap monitoring

sampling and testing using EPA
Reference 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 the
mercury CEMS or integrated sorbent
trap monitoring system and must
comply with performance specification
12A or performance specification 12B,
respectively, and quality assurance
procedure 5. For the purposes of
emissions calculations when using an
integrated sorbent trap monitoring
system, the mercury concentration
determined for each sampling period
must be assigned to each hour during
the sampling period. Waste-burning
kilns must install, calibrate, maintain,
and operate a mercury CEMS or an
integrated sorbent trap monitoring
system as specified in § 60.2145(j). For
units equipped with a mercury CEMS or
an integrated sorbent trap monitoring
system, you are not required to monitor
the minimum sorbent flow rate, if
activated carbon sorbent injection is
used solely for compliance with the
mercury emission limit.
(k) To demonstrate initial and
continuous compliance with the
nitrogen oxides emissions limit, a
facility may substitute use of a CEMS for
the nitrogen oxides initial and annual
performance test to demonstrate
compliance with the nitrogen oxides
emissions limits. For units equipped

your hourly clinker production rate
using a kiln-specific feed to clinker ratio
based on reconciled clinker production
determined for accounting purposes and
recorded feed rates. Update this ratio
monthly. Note that if this ratio changes
at clinker reconciliation, you must use
the new ratio going forward, but you do
not have to retroactively change clinker
production rates previously estimated.
(2) Determine the accuracy of the
system of measuring hourly clinker
production (or feed mass flow if
applicable) before the effective date and
during each quarter of source operation.

the EPA’s ERT website at the time of the
evaluation, you must submit the results
of the performance evaluation to the
Administrator at the appropriate
address listed in § 60.4.
(c) If you are required to electronically
submit a report through the Compliance
and Emissions Data Reporting Interface
(CEDRI) in the EPA’s Central Data
Exchange (CDX), and due to a planned
or actual outage of either the EPA’s
CEDRI or CDX systems within the
period of time beginning 5 business
days prior to the date that the
submission is due, you will be or are
precluded from accessing CEDRI or CDX
and submitting a required report within
the time prescribed, you may assert a
claim of EPA system outage for failure
to timely comply with the reporting
requirement. You must submit
notification to the Administrator in
writing as soon as possible following the
date you first knew, or through due
diligence should have known, that the
event may cause or caused a delay in
reporting. You must provide to the
Administrator a written description
identifying the date, time and length of
the outage; a rationale for attributing the
delay in reporting beyond the regulatory
deadline to the EPA system outage;
describe the measures taken or to be
taken to minimize the delay in
reporting; and identify a date by which

you propose to report, or if you have
already met the reporting requirement at
the time of the notification, the date you
reported. In any circumstance, the
report must be submitted electronically
as soon as possible after the outage is
resolved. The decision to accept the
claim of EPA system outage and allow
an extension to the reporting deadline is
solely within the discretion of the
Administrator.
(d) If you are required to
electronically submit a report through
CEDRI in the EPA’s CDX and a force
majeure event is about to occur, occurs,
or has occurred or there are lingering
effects from such an event within the
period of time beginning 5 business
days prior to the date the submission is
due, the owner or operator may assert a
claim of force majeure for failure to
timely comply with the reporting
requirement. For the purposes of this
section, a force majeure event is defined
as an event that will be or has been
caused by circumstances beyond the
control of the affected facility, its
contractors, or any entity controlled by
the affected facility that prevents you
from complying with the requirement to
submit a report electronically within the
time period prescribed. Examples of
such events are acts of nature (e.g.,
hurricanes, earthquakes, or floods), acts
of war or terrorism, or equipment failure
or safety hazard beyond the control of
the affected facility (e.g., large scale
power outage). If you intend to assert a
claim of force majeure, you must submit
notification to the Administrator in
writing as soon as possible following the
date you first knew, or through due
diligence should have known, that the
event may cause or caused a delay in
reporting. You must provide to the
Administrator a written description of
the force majeure event and a rationale
for attributing the delay in reporting
beyond the regulatory deadline to the
force majeure event; describe the
measures taken or to be taken to
minimize the delay in reporting; and
identify a date by which you propose to
report, or if you have already met the
reporting requirement at the time of the
notification, the date you reported. In
any circumstance, the reporting must
occur as soon as possible after the force
majeure event occurs. The decision to
accept the claim of force majeure and
allow an extension to the reporting
deadline is solely within the discretion
of the Administrator.

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 ACI
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.

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 CISWIs 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.
§ 60.2520 Is there an approval process for
my state plan?
§ 60.2510
states?
Yes. The EPA will review your state
plan according to § 60.27.
Is a state plan required for all
No. You are not required to submit a
state plan if there are no existing CISWIs
in your state, and you submit a negative
declaration letter in place of the state
plan.

plan?
What must I include in my state
(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 CISWIs,
including those that have ceased
operation but have not been dismantled;
(2) Inventory of emissions from
affected CISWIs in your state;
(3) Compliance schedules for each
affected CISWI;
(4) Emission limitations, operator
training and qualification requirements,
a waste management plan, and
operating limits for affected CISWIs 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; and
(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

§ 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 CISWIs 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 CISWIs that
commenced construction on or before
June 4, 2010 and incinerator or ACIs
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 CISWIs 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.
§ 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 document in the Federal Register. If,
at a later date, an existing CISWI is
found in your state, the federal plan
implementing the emission guidelines
contained in this subpart would
automatically apply to that CISWI until
your state plan is approved.

§ 60.2535 What compliance schedule must
I include in my state plan?
(a) For CISWIs in the incinerator
subcategory and ACIs that commenced
construction on or before November 30,
1999, your state plan must include
compliance schedules that require
CISWIs in the incinerator subcategory
and ACIs 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; and
(2) Three years after the effective date
of state plan approval.
(b) For CISWIs in the incinerator
subcategory and ACIs 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
CISWIs 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 CISWIs 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; and
(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 CISWIs 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); and
(b) State plans developed to
implement this subpart are required to
include two increments of progress for
the affected CISWIs. 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 CISWIs.

are there other acceptable option(s) for a
state to meet its Clean Air Act section

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; and
(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)/

(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
hydrogen chloride (HCl) emission
limitation.
(b) You must meet the operating
limits established on the date that the
performance test report is submitted to
the EPA’s Central Data Exchange or
postmarked, per the requirements of
§ 60.2795(b).
(c) If you use a fabric filter to comply
with the emission limitations and you
do not use a particulate matter (PM)
continuous parameter monitoring
system (CPMS) for monitoring PM
compliance, 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 and you do not use
a PM CPMS for monitoring PM
compliance, 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
charge rate, the secondary chamber
temperature (if applicable to your
CISWI), 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 either a particulate
matter CEMS or a particulate matter
CPMS, 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):
E:\FR\FM\16APR3.SGM
16APR3

(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; and
(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 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; and
(D) If none of the steps in paragraphs
(i)(2)(i)(A) through (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:
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.
PM concentration from your three
compliance tests, determine a
relationship of mg/dscm per milliamp
or digital signal equivalent, with

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

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 as required under
§ 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 § 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
§ 60.2675 or established under § 60.2680
and as specified in § 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 § 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. 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
constitutes a deviation from your
operating limits established under this
subpart, except during performance
tests conducted to determine
compliance with the emission and

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 CPMS 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, as described in
§ 60.2730(o).
(h) Coal and liquid/gas energy
recovery units with annual average heat
input rates greater than 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 § 60.2730(n) instead of
the CPMS specified in § 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 § 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/hr but less
than 250 MMBtu/hr that do not use a
wet scrubber, fabric filter with bag leak
detection system, an electrostatic
precipitator, particulate matter CEMS,
or particulate matter CPMS, you must
install, operate, certify and maintain a
continuous opacity monitoring system
(COMS) according to the procedures in
§ 60.2730(m).
(j) For waste-burning kilns, you must
conduct an annual performance test for
the pollutants (except mercury and
particulate matter, and hydrogen
chloride if no acid gas wet scrubber or
dry scrubber is used) listed in table 8 of
this subpart, unless you choose to
demonstrate initial and continuous
compliance using CEMS, as allowed in
E:\FR\FM\16APR3.SGM

paragraph (u) of this section. If you do
not use an acid gas wet scrubber or dry
scrubber, you must determine
compliance with the hydrogen chloride
emissions limit using a HCl CEMS
according to the requirements in
paragraph (j)(1) of this section. You
must determine compliance with the
mercury emissions limit using a
mercury CEMS or an integrated sorbent
trap monitoring system according to
paragraph (j)(2) of this section. You
must determine compliance with
particulate matter using CPMS.
(1) If you monitor compliance with
the HCl emissions limit by operating an
HCl CEMS, you must do so in
accordance with Performance
Specification 15 (PS 15) of appendix B
to 40 CFR part 60, or, PS 18 of appendix
B to 40 CFR part 60. You must operate,
maintain, and quality assure a HCl
CEMS installed and certified under PS
15 according to the quality assurance
requirements in Procedure 1 of
appendix F to 40 CFR part 60 except
that the Relative Accuracy Test Audit
requirements of Procedure 1 must be
replaced with the validation
requirements and criteria of sections
11.1.1 and 12.0 of PS 15. You must
operate, maintain and quality assure a
HCl CEMS installed and certified under
PS 18 according to the quality assurance
requirements in Procedure 6 of
appendix F to 40 CFR part 60. For any
performance specification that you use,
you must use Method 321 of appendix
A to 40 CFR part 63 as the reference test
method for conducting relative accuracy
testing. The span value and calibration
requirements in paragraphs (j)(1)(i) and
(ii) of this section apply to all HCl
CEMS used under this subpart:
(i) You must use a measurement span
value for any HCl CEMS of 0–10 ppmvw
unless the monitor is installed on a kiln
without an inline raw mill. Kilns
without an inline raw mill may use a
higher span value sufficient to quantify
all expected emissions concentrations.
The HCl CEMS data recorder output
range must include the full range of
expected HCl concentration values
which would include those expected
during ‘‘mill off’’ conditions. The
corresponding data recorder range shall
be documented in the site-specific
monitoring plan and associated records;
and
(ii) In order to quality assure data
measured above the span value, you
must use one of the three options in
paragraphs (j)(1)(ii)(A) through (C) of
this section:
(A) Include a second span that
encompasses the HCl emission
concentrations expected to be
encountered during ‘‘mill off’’
conditions. This second span may be
rounded to a multiple of 5 ppm of total
HCl. The requirements of the
appropriate HCl monitor performance
specification shall be followed for this
second span with the exception that a
RATA with the mill off is not required;
(B) Quality assure any data above the
span value by proving instrument
linearity beyond the span value
established in paragraph (j)(1)(i) of this
section using the following procedure.
Conduct a weekly ‘‘above span
linearity’’ calibration challenge of the
monitoring system using a reference gas
with a certified value greater than your
highest expected hourly concentration
or greater than 75% of the highest
measured hourly concentration. The
‘‘above span’’ reference gas must meet
the requirements of the applicable
performance specification and must be
introduced to the measurement system
at the probe. Record and report the
results of this procedure as you would
for a daily calibration. The ‘‘above span
linearity’’ challenge is successful if the
value measured by the HCl CEMS falls
within 10 percent of the certified value
of the reference gas. If the value
measured by the HCl CEMS during the
above span linearity challenge exceeds
10 percent of the certified value of the
reference gas, the monitoring system
must be evaluated and repaired and a
new ‘‘above span linearity’’ challenge
met before returning the HCl CEMS to
service, or data above span from the HCl
CEMS must be subject to the quality
assurance procedures established in
(j)(1)(ii)(D) of this section. In this
manner values measured by the HCl
CEMS during the above span linearity
challenge exceeding +/-20 percent of the
certified value of the reference gas must
be normalized using equation 6;
(C) Quality assure any data above the
span value established in paragraph
(j)(1)(i) of this section using the
following procedure. Any time two
consecutive one-hour average measured
concentration of HCl exceeds the span
value you must, within 24 hours before
or after, introduce a higher, ‘‘above
span’’ HCl reference gas standard to the
HCl CEMS. The ‘‘above span’’ reference
gas must meet the requirements of the
applicable performance specification
and target a concentration level between
50 and 150 percent of the highest
expected hourly concentration
measured during the period of
measurements above span, and must be
introduced at the probe. While this
target represents a desired concentration
range that is not always achievable in
practice, it is expected that the intent to
meet this range is demonstrated by the
value of the reference gas. Expected
values may include above span
calibrations done before or after the
above-span measurement period. Record
and report the results of this procedure
as you would for a daily calibration. The
‘‘above span’’ calibration is successful if
the value measured by the HCl CEMS is
within 20 percent of the certified value
of the reference gas. If the value
measured by the HCl CEMS is not
within 20 percent of the certified value
of the reference gas, then you must
normalize the stack gas values measured
above span as described in paragraph
(j)(1)(ii)(D) of this section. If the ‘‘above
span’’ calibration is conducted during
the period when measured emissions
are above span and there is a failure to
collect the one data point in an hour
due to the calibration duration, then you
must determine the emissions average
for that missed hour as the average of
hourly averages for the hour preceding
the missed hour and the hour following
the missed hour. In an hour where an
‘‘above span’’ calibration is being
conducted and one or more data points
are collected, the emissions average is
represented by the average of all valid
data points collected in that hour; and
(D) In the event that the ‘‘above span’’
calibration is not successful (i.e., the
HCl CEMS measured value is not within
20 percent of the certified value of the
reference gas), then you must normalize
the one-hour average stack gas values
measured above the span during the 24hour period preceding or following the
‘‘above span’’ calibration for reporting
based on the HCl CEMS response to the
reference gas as shown in equation 6:
Only one ‘‘above span’’ calibration is
needed per 24-hour period.
(2) Compliance with the mercury
emissions limit must be determined
using a mercury CEMS or integrated
sorbent trap monitoring system
according to the following requirements:

(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 (iv) of this
section. This relationship may be
reestablished 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, 3B, or as an alternative ANSI/ASME
PTC 19.10–1981 (incorporated by
reference, see § 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;
(iii) Each sample must represent a 1hour average; and
(iv) A minimum of 3 runs must be

integrated sorbent trap monitoring
system data during startup and
shutdown, the 1-hour arithmetic
averages used to calculate the 30-day
rolling average emission concentrations
must be corrected to 7 percent oxygen
(dry basis). Integrated sorbent trap

new values for the operating limits, as
specified in § 60.2725. New operating
limits become effective on the date that
the performance test report is submitted
to the EPA’s Central Data Exchange or
postmarked, per the requirements of
§ 60.2795(b). The Administrator may
request a repeat performance test at any
time;
(2) You must repeat the performance
test within 60 days of a process change,
as defined in § 60.2875; and
(3) You can conduct performance tests
less often if you meet the following
conditions: Your performance tests for
the pollutant for at least 2 consecutive
performance tests demonstrates that the
emission level for the pollutant is no
greater than the emission level specified
in paragraph (a)(3)(i) or (ii) of this
section, as applicable; there are no
changes in the operation of the affected
source or air pollution control
equipment that could increase
emissions; 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

not have to conduct a performance test
for that pollutant for the next 2 years.
You must conduct a performance test
for the pollutant no more than 37
months following the previous
performance test for the pollutant. If the
emission level for your CISWI continues
to meet the emission level specified in
paragraph (a)(3)(i) or (ii) of this section,
as applicable, you may choose to
conduct performance tests for the
pollutant every third year, as long as
there are no changes in the operation of
the affected source or air pollution
control equipment that could increase
emissions. Each such performance test
must be conducted no more than 37
months after the previous performance
test.
(i) For particulate matter, hydrogen
chloride, mercury, carbon monoxide,
nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide,
cadmium, lead, and dioxins/furans, the
emission level equal to 75 percent of the
applicable emission limit in table 2 or

(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 and you
do not use a PM CPMS for monitoring
PM compliance, 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

output of the system. You may
substitute use of a HCl CEMS for
conducting the HCl initial and annual
testing with EPA Method 321 at 40 CFR
part 63, appendix A. 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 initial and annual
performance test. For units equipped
with a hydrogen chloride CEMS, you are
not required to monitor 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 either a particulate matter CEMS
or a particulate matter CPMS for
conducting the particulate matter
annual performance test. For units
equipped with a particulate matter
CEMS, you are not required to use other
CMS monitoring for PM compliance
(e.g., bag leak detectors, ESP secondary
power, PM scrubber pressure). A facility

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
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
§ 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 initial and
continuous compliance with the
mercury emissions limit, a facility may
substitute use of a mercury CEMS or
and integrated sorbent trap monitoring
system for the mercury initial and
annual performance test. The owner or

determined for each sampling period
must be assigned to each hour during
the sampling period. For units equipped
with a mercury CEMS or an integrated
sorbent trap monitoring system, you are
not required to monitor the minimum
sorbent flow rate, if activated carbon
sorbent injection is used solely for
compliance with the mercury emission
limit. Waste-burning kilns must install,
calibrate, maintain, and operate a
mercury CEMS or an integrated sorbent
trap monitoring system as specified in
§ 60.2710(j).

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
monitoring with a particulate matter
CPMS according to paragraph (r) of this
section, must install, calibrate, maintain
and operate a PM CEMS and must
comply with the requirements specified
in paragraphs (n)(1) through (10) of this
section:

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 § 60.2710(t)(4)(i) through (iv);
(4) The owner or operator of an
affected facility must conduct an initial
performance test for particulate matter
emissions. If PM CEMS are elected for
demonstrating compliance, and the
initial performance test has not yet been
conducted, then initial 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 1hour 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,

monitoring system hourly averages must
be obtained as specified § 60.2735;
(7) The 1-hour arithmetic averages
required under paragraph (n)(5) 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 § 60.13(e)(2);
(8) All valid CEMS data must be used
in calculating average emission
concentrations even if the minimum
CEMS data requirements of paragraph
(n)(6) of this section are not met;
(9) The CEMS must be operated
according to performance specification
11 in appendix B of this part; and,

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.
(t) If you are required to monitor
clinker production because you comply
with the production-rate based mercury
limit for your waste-burning kiln, you
must:
(1) Determine hourly clinker
production by one of two methods:
(i) Install, calibrate, maintain, and
operate a permanent weigh scale system
to measure and record weight rates in
tons-mass per hour of the amount of
clinker produced. The system of
measuring hourly clinker production
must be maintained within ±5 percent
accuracy, or
(ii) Install, calibrate, maintain, and
operate a permanent weigh scale system
to measure and record weight rates in
tons-mass per hour of the amount of
feed to the kiln. The system of
measuring feed must be maintained
within ±5 percent accuracy. Calculate
your hourly clinker production rate
using a kiln-specific feed to clinker ratio
based on reconciled clinker production
determined for accounting purposes and
recorded feed rates. Update this ratio
monthly. Note that if this ratio changes
at clinker reconciliation, you must use
the new ratio going forward, but you do
not have to retroactively change clinker
production rates previously estimated.
(2) Determine the accuracy of the
system of measuring hourly clinker
production (or feed mass flow if
applicable) before the final compliance
date of this rule and during each quarter
of source operation.
(3) Conduct accuracy checks in
accordance with the procedures
outlined in your site-specific monitoring
plan under § 60.2710(l).

§ 60.2735 Is there a minimum amount of
monitoring data I must obtain?
For each continuous monitoring
system required or optionally allowed
under § 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

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
malfunctions, repairs associated with
monitoring system malfunctions or outof 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 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.

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

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

limestone and other materials for
subsequent production of Portland
Cement. Because the alkali bypass, inline 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

applicable federal or state standards for
unrestricted release. Low-level
radioactive waste is not high-level
radioactive waste, spent nuclear fuel, or
by-product 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. Failures that are caused,
in part, by poor maintenance or careless
operation are not malfunctions.

SUMMARY: Following requests for clarification of its June 2016 final
action, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) published proposed
amendments to several provisions of the 2016 New Source Performance
Standards (NSPS) and Emission Guidelines (EG) for Commercial and
Industrial Solid Waste Incineration (CISWI). This action finalizes the
proposed amendments, which provide clarity and address implementation
issues in the final CISWI NSPS and EG, as well as correcting
inconsistencies and errors in these provisions.
DATES: This final rule is effective on April 16, 2019. The
incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in the rule
is approved by the Director of the Federal Register as of February 7,
2013.

South Building, 1200 Pennsylvania Ave. NW, Washington, DC 20460, with a
copy to the persons listed in the preceding FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
CONTACT section, and the Associate General Counsel for the Air and
Radiation Law Office, Office of General Counsel (Mail Code 2344A),
Environmental Protection Agency, 1200 Pennsylvania Ave. NW, Washington,
DC 20460. Note, under CAA section 307(b)(2), the requirements
established by this final rule may not be challenged separately in any
civil or criminal proceedings brought by the EPA to enforce these
requirements.
II. Background
A. What is the statutory authority for taking this action?
Section 129 of the CAA requires the EPA to establish NSPS and EG
pursuant to sections 111 and 129 of the CAA for new and existing solid
waste incineration units located at commercial and industrial
facilities. This action amends standards developed under these
authorities.
B. 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, proposed revisions to, and
requested comment on several provisions of the March 2011 final NSPS
and EG for CISWI units. These proposed revisions were published on
December 23, 2011 (76 FR 80452).
On February 7, 2013, the EPA finalized revisions to the CISWI NSPS
and EG (78 FR 9112). In that final action, the EPA made additional
revisions in response to comments that had not been proposed in the
December 23, 2011, Federal Register document. Subsequently, the EPA
received petitions for reconsideration of the final 2013 action. These
petitions assert that the public did not have sufficient opportunity to
comment on some of the provisions contained in that final rule. In
response, the EPA proposed to reconsider four provisions of the 2013
final revisions to the NSPS and EG for CISWI units (80 FR 3018, January
21, 2015). The EPA took final action on that proposal on June 23, 2016
(81 FR 40956). We will refer to this final CISWI rule, as revised
through June 2016, as the 2016 CISWI rule.
Following promulgation of the 2016 CISWI rule, the EPA received
requests from industry stakeholders and implementing agencies to
clarify various issues with implementation of the standards. In
addition, the EPA identified certain testing and monitoring issues and
inconsistencies within the rules that required further clarification or
correction. On June 15, 2018, the EPA proposed amendments to several
provisions of the 2016 CISWI rule to address these issues (83 FR
28068). In addition, the EPA identified additional regulatory
provisions, beyond those raised by the requests from industry
stakeholders and implementing agencies, that require clarification and
editorial correction to address inconsistencies and errors in the final
rules. In this document, the EPA is taking final action on the June
2018 proposal by promulgating clarifying changes and corrections to the
2016 CISWI rule.
For more detailed background and additional information on how this
rule is related to other CAA combustion rules issued under CAA section
112 and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act definition of solid
waste, refer to the prior final actions discussed above (76 FR 15704,
March 21, 2011; 78 FR 9112, February 7, 2013).
III. Summary of Final Action
In this final rule, we are amending the 2016 CISWI rule to address
certain
[[Page 15848]]
issues raised by industry stakeholders and implementing agencies, as
well as to address other issues identified during implementation of the
CISWI rule. Provisions affected by the amendments are: (1) Alternative
equivalent emission limit for mercury (Hg) for the waste-burning kiln
subcategory; (2) timing of initial test and initial performance
evaluation; (3) extension of the date by which electronic data
reporting requirements must be met; (4) clarification of non-delegated
authorities; (5) demonstration of initial and continuous compliance
when using a continuous emissions monitoring system (CEMS); (6)
continuous opacity monitoring requirements; (7) other CEMS
requirements; (8) clarification of skip testing requirements; (9)
deviation reporting requirements for continuous monitoring data; and
(10) clarification of air curtain incinerator (ACI) requirements. In
addition to these provisions, we are also correcting minor
typographical errors identified in the rule as noted in section V.B of
this preamble.
This final rule provides meaningful burden reduction by providing
regulated facilities additional time to complete initial compliance
demonstrations and by allowing facilities to comply with production-
based emission limits in lieu of the concentration-based limits in the
2016 CISWI rule. Specifically, cement kilns would be allowed to report
mercury emissions on a mass-based production basis (pounds per million
(lb/MM) ton of clinker) in lieu of reporting on a concentration based
limit (milligrams per dry standard cubic meter (mg/dscm)). This
alternative provision may result in lower costs for the cement industry
by making the format of the mercury emission limits consistent with the
Portland Cement NESHAP (PC NESHAP). Further, the rule adds
flexibilities in the compliance demonstration process by extending the
timeline for performance evaluation tests from 60 days to 180 days and
allows facilities to use CEMS for demonstrating initial compliance.
These provisions may lower compliance testing costs as stack testing
could be avoided if the facilities use CEMS. Moreover, facilities with
CEMS will not be required to retest in the event of original stack
testing failure.
The EPA is taking final action on all the amendments discussed in
the June 15, 2018 (83 FR 28068), proposed rule and also making two
additional changes to clarify provisions of the 2016 CISWI rule. A more
detailed discussion of the rationale behind the technical amendments is
located in section V.A of this preamble.
A. EG 30-Day Rolling Average Provisions
A commenter noted that the 30-day rolling average language found in
40 CFR 60.2710(c) was inconsistent with how the averaging period is
defined elsewhere in the rule because it contained the additional
qualifier ``over the previous 30 days of operation.'' The EPA realizes
that units may not necessarily operate continuously, and that valid
operating data exclude periods when a unit is not operating. The EPA
has removed the phrase ``over the previous 30 days of operation'' from
40 CFR 60.2710(c) to be consistent with similar provisions elsewhere in
the EG and in the NSPS.
B. Clarification of Operating Parameter Monitoring for a Pollutant's
Control When CEMS are Being Used for Continuous Compliance
Demonstration for the Pollutant
The EPA is clarifying that continuous operating parameter
monitoring is not required when CEMS are used for direct and continuous
compliance demonstrations for the pollutant. See section V.A.5 of this
preamble for further discussion.
IV. Public Comments
Public comments on the proposed rule and the EPA's responses to
these comments are addressed in a separate response to comment
document, available in the docket for this action at Docket ID No. EPA-
HQ-OAR-2003-0119.
V. Rationale for Final Amendments to 2016 CISWI Rule
A. Discussion of Final Technical Amendments
This section of the preamble explains the basis for the changes in
this final rule.
1. Alternative Equivalent Emission Limit for Hg for the Waste-Burning
Kiln Subcategory
The December 23, 2011, proposed CISWI reconsideration rule preamble
discussed and presented equivalent emission limits for waste-burning
kilns expressed on a production basis (76 FR 80458). In the February
2013 CISWI final reconsideration rule preamble, the EPA again included
these equivalent production-based limits, but at that time the EPA
decided not to codify these within the rule text. In the process of
approving state plans to implement the CISWI EG, the EPA has recognized
that there is a benefit to some affected sources and implementing
agencies in codifying the emission limit for Hg for waste-burning kilns
expressed as a production-based limit (i.e., lb/MM ton clinker) as an
alternative equivalent standard to the existing concentration-based
standard (i.e., mg/dscm), because this is the format of the Hg
standards found in the PC NESHAP. The EPA strives to make compliance
with both CISWI standards and the PC NESHAP as streamlined and
consistent as possible to facilitate compliance with both standards
because these sources (and energy recovery units) must comply with the
CISWI standard when they are combusting solid waste and must comply
with the PC NESHAP or Boiler Maximum Achievable Control Technology
standards, as applicable, when combusting nonwaste materials. Having an
equivalent emission limit in the same units as the PC NESHAP will,
thus, aid affected sources in demonstrating compliance with both
standards, and will aid implementing agencies in enforcing the
standards.
As discussed in 2011 and repeated in 2013 (78 FR 9122-3, February
7, 2013), the Hg emission limit of 58 lb/MM ton clinker and 21 lb/MM
ton clinker for existing and new sources, respectively, are equivalent
to the concentration-based Hg standards of 0.011 mg/dscm and 0.0037 mg/
dscm within the currently published 2016 CISWI rule. To facilitate use
of the equivalent production-based emission limits, the EPA is adding
these emission limits to the emission limitation tables, and including
recordkeeping, calculation, and reporting requirements for clinker
production rate as necessary. The regulatory provisions and
calculations being made final are consistent with those found in the PC
NESHAP, see 40 CFR 63, subpart LLL.
2. Timing of Initial Test and Initial Performance Evaluation
The current CISWI NSPS and EG (2016 CISWI Rule) require affected
sources to conduct a performance evaluation of each continuous
monitoring system within 60 days of installation of the monitoring
system (see 40 CFR 60.2135 and 60.2700). The rule also allows up to 180
days from the final compliance date for affected sources to conduct an
initial performance test. The EPA received questions from implementing
agencies asking whether these requirements can be synchronized to
prevent duplicate testing requirements because the continuous
monitoring system performance evaluation would require an emissions
test being conducted at the same time regardless. We recognize that
[[Page 15849]]
the requirement to conduct a performance evaluation within 60 days of
installation could present a situation for sources where the deadline
for conducting the performance evaluation would precede the deadline
for conducting the initial performance test. The EPA did not intend to
require sources to conduct duplicative initial performance tests, and
we see a benefit to sources and implementing agencies to be able to
schedule and conduct both of these demonstrations at the same time.
Therefore, the EPA is adjusting the timing of the continuous monitoring
system initial performance evaluation to allow 180 days from
installation to match the schedule which is allowed for conducting the
initial performance test. The EPA has determined that making these
timelines consistent (i.e., 180 days from installation) will streamline
compliance demonstrations and prevent possible duplicative testing
requirements.
3. Extension of Electronic Data Reporting Requirement
In this action, the EPA is extending the electronic reporting
requirement dates found in 40 CFR 60.2235(a) and 60.2795(a). The
electronic reporting provisions promulgated in CISWI require submittal
of initial, annual, and deviation reports electronically through the
EPA's Compliance and Emissions Data Reporting Interface (CEDRI), which
is accessed through the EPA's Central Data Exchange. The existing rule
provides that the requirement for electronic submittal will take effect
once the relevant forms have been available in CEDRI for 90 calendar
days. As stated in the CISWI reconsideration (81 FR 40956), the EPA
intended to make the requirements of the CISWI rule consistent with the
Electronic Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements for New Source
Performance Standards, which was proposed on March 20, 2015 (80 FR
15100).\1\ However, the CISWI reconsideration final rule was published
on June 23, 2016 (81 FR 40956), before the Electronic Reporting and
Recordkeeping Requirements for New Source Performance Standards rule
\2\ was finalized and did not take into account comments received on
that rule.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ Originally, the Electronic Reporting and Recordkeeping
Requirements for New Source Performance Standards rule included
CISWI as one of the affected subparts. However, because the CISWI
reconsideration package was proposed at nearly the same time as that
rule, CISWI was removed as an affected subpart, and the language
associated with the Electronic Reporting and Recordkeeping
Requirements for New Source Performance Standards rule was inserted
into the CISWI reconsideration proposal.
\2\ This final rule was signed on December 21, 2016, but was
withdrawn from the Office of the Federal Register prior to
publication.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The extension for CISWI units in this action is consistent with the
EPA's approach to electronic reporting outlined in the Electronic
Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements for New Source Performance
Standards final rule.\3\ This approach has also been used in recent EPA
rulemakings (e.g., National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants for Chemical Recovery Combustion Sources at Kraft, Soda,
Sulfite, and Stand-Alone Semi Chemical Pulp Mills, 82 FR 47328 (October
11, 2017); National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants:
Publicly Owned Treatment Works Residual Risk and Technology Review, 82
FR 49513, October 26, 2017). The extension requires electronic
submission of initial, annual, and deviation reports 2 years from
publication of the final rule or 1 year after the reporting form
becomes available in CEDRI, whichever date is later. This extension is
necessary to allow the EPA time to develop and adequately test the new
forms and for regulated entities to become familiar with the forms and
reprogram systems that collect data for periodic reports once the forms
are available. The extension also allows state, local, and tribal
agencies more time to implement electronic reporting and to make any
needed permit revisions to accommodate electronic reporting and allows
for development of third-party software to populate the reporting
forms.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

https://www.epa.gov/sites/production/files/2017-04/documents/e-reporting-nsps-final-rule-pre-publication.pdf. Accessed November 15,
2018.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. Clarification of Non-Delegated Authorities
In this action, the EPA is making final corrections to the
authorities listed in 40 CFR 60.2030(c). Specifically, the reference to
40 CFR 60.2125(j) is an outdated reference to previously proposed, but
never promulgated, performance test waiver provisions. These provisions
were included in the June 4, 2010, CISWI proposed rule (see 75 FR
31975), but were not made final in the March 21, 2011, final rule (see
76 FR 15752-3). This reference was inadvertently not included in the
final rule to reflect that the proposed 40 CFR 60.2125(j) was not
finalized. Another correction relates to the provisions of 40 CFR
60.2030(c)(10) that require obtaining a determination from the EPA of
whether a qualifying small power facility or cogeneration facility is
combusting homogeneous waste. We intended to remove these provisions in
the 2013 CISWI final rule as part of the removal of the definition of
homogeneous waste (see 78 FR 9124, February 7, 2013). As discussed in
the preamble to the February 7, 2013, final revision action, the EPA
determined that the proposed ``definition and provisions could be
interpreted in a manner that would be unduly restrictive.'' Therefore,
the EPA did not include a definition of ``homogeneous waste'' in the
final CISWI rule and the Agency stated it was (without actually
amending the CFR text to reflect its intent) ``removing the requirement
that qualifying small power producers and qualifying cogeneration
facilities that combust solid waste obtain a determination from the EPA
that such waste is homogeneous.'' Id. Accordingly, the EPA is removing
paragraph 40 CFR 60.2030(c)(10). While no other authorities have been
added or removed from this list, the EPA is making minor revisions to
streamline the section by removing the reserved subparagraphs (i.e.,
(5) and (10)) and renumbering the subparagraphs sequentially.
In this action, we are also clarifying, with respect to the EG,
which authorities will not be delegated. Language in 40 CFR 60.2542
simply contains a reference to the analogous paragraph (40 CFR
60.2030(c)) within the CISWI NSPS. However, since the CISWI NSPS
applies to new sources, applicability of these non-delegated
authorities to state plans implementing the emission guidelines for
existing sources was unclear to implementing agencies. To remove this
confusion, we have eliminated the cross reference to 40 CFR 60.2030(c)
and have instead provided the specific details on which authorities
will not be delegated within the text of 40 CFR 60.2542. The final list
of authorities in 40 CFR 60.2542 matches the updated list found in 40
CFR 60.2030(c), with the appropriate adjustments made to subpart
section cross references.
5. Demonstrating Initial Compliance When Using CEMS
As the EPA noted at proposal, (see 83 FR 28072, June 15, 2018), the
provisions regarding CEMS monitoring for demonstrating initial
compliance are inconsistent and somewhat unclear. The final CISWI rules
require some sources to demonstrate compliance using CEMS, and allow
the option for any source to use CEMS to demonstrate compliance ``with
any of the emission limits of this subpart'' (see 40 CFR 60.2145(u) and
60.2710(u)). However, for most of the
[[Page 15850]]
paragraphs containing the pollutant-specific CEMS requirements, the
language was unclear on whether these demonstrations were applicable to
demonstrating initial compliance, with the exception of carbon monoxide
(CO). The EPA's intent was to allow CEMS for demonstrating initial
compliance for any pollutant (i.e., with any of the emission limits of
this subpart). To express the EPA's intent of providing this
flexibility for compliance demonstration more clearly, we have revised
several sections of the rule in this final action. For example, the
initial compliance requirements in 40 CFR 60.2135 and 60.2700 have been
revised to also reflect use of CEMS data as an initial compliance
demonstration alternative to an emissions test, provided that the
initial CEMS performance evaluation has been conducted prior to
collecting CEMS data used for the initial performance test. Likewise,
language surrounding the CEMS requirements found in 40 CFR 60.2145,
60.2165, 60.2710, and 60.2730, and the emission limitation tables, has
been revised and streamlined to clarify that CEMS data may be used to
demonstrate compliance (i.e., initial and continuing) with the
standards.
In addition to clarifying initial compliance demonstrations using
CEMS, commenters suggested a similar issue occurs with continuous
parametric monitoring requirements for sources that use CEMS to
demonstrate compliance for a pollutant. It was not the EPA's intent to
require duplicative operating parameter monitoring for pollutants if
emissions for the pollutants are directly and continuously monitored
using CEMS. Therefore, the EPA has clarified the CEMS requirements in
40 CFR 60.2165 and 40 CFR 60.2730 to indicate that sources using CEMS
to monitor for a pollutant are not required to monitor the associated
operating parameters unless it is necessary for compliance with the
monitoring requirements of another regulated pollutant. This
clarification is not removing any monitoring requirements, but only
acknowledging that direct pollutant emission measurement with CEMS is a
suitable, if not even preferential, alternative to continuous parameter
monitoring.
6. Clarification of Continuous Opacity Monitoring System (COMS)
Requirements
In addition to the clarifications to CEMS provisions, we are also
revising 40 CFR 60.2145(i) and 60.2710(i) to clarify our intent
regarding the types of units required to install COMS and to make it
consistent with the COMS monitoring requirement language found in 40
CFR 60.2165(m) and 60.2730(m), respectively. We are adding language
clarifying that energy recovery units between 10 and 250 million
British thermal units/hour design heat input that are equipped with
electrostatic precipitators (ESP), particulate matter CEMS, or
particulate matter continuous parameter monitoring systems (CPMS) are
not required to additionally install and operate COMS because these
units have an air pollution control device that has continuous
parameter monitoring requirements or are using continuous particulate
matter monitoring compliant with provisions within the rule already
(see 40 CFR 60.2145(q), for example). The rule currently excludes the
COMS requirement for energy recovery units using other types of
particulate matter control devices or that use particulate matter CEMS
for continuous particulate matter monitoring, but inadvertently omitted
ESPs and particulate matter CPMS from the list. Therefore, we are
adding ``electrostatic precipitator'' and ``particulate matter CPMS''
to the list (that currently includes CO wet scrubbers and fabric
filters) found in 40 CFR 60.2165(m) and 60.2730(m) as types of units
that do not require COMS. As a further clarification, we are also
amending the text to 40 CFR 60.2145(i) and 60.2710(i) to clearly
specify that the COMS requirement is applicable to units within the
specified size range ``that do not use a wet scrubber, fabric filter
with bag leak detection system, an electrostatic precipitator,
particulate matter CEMS, or particulate matter CPMS.''
7. Clarification of Other CEMS Requirements
In addition to the CEMS-related requirements discussed above, the
EPA is making two other CEMS-related clarifications in this final rule:
(1) To not require CO CEMS for new waste-burning kilns; and (2) to
remove outdated notification requirements when particulate matter CEMS
are being used. For the CO CEMS issue, the rule as finalized in
February 7, 2013, erroneously includes a requirement at 40 CFR
60.2145(j) for new waste-burning kilns to demonstrate compliance with
CO emission limits using CEMS. This issue was not corrected in the 2016
final rules and is inconsistent with the requirements found in Table 7
to 40 CFR 60, subpart CCCC, and with the EPA's intent to remove CO CEMS
requirements for new CISWI sources, as stated in the February 7, 2013,
final CISWI rules (see 78 FR 9120). Carbon monoxide CEMS are allowed as
an alternative compliance demonstration, but sources who adopt this
alternative are not required to conduct annual testing using EPA Method
10. To make this clarification, the EPA is revising 40 CFR 60.2145(j)
to reflect that CO is one of the pollutants for which an annual test is
required and removing CO from the list of pollutants requiring CEMS for
demonstrating compliance.
Regarding the removal of outdated notification requirements when
particulate matter CEMS are used, the EPA is removing the outdated
requirements to notify the Administrator prior to beginning and
stopping use of an optional particulate matter CEMS. These provisions
are 40 CFR 60.2165(n)(1) and (2), and 40 CFR 60.2730(n)(1) and (2).
These provisions are an inadvertent holdover from model provisions from
a prior rule. CEMS technology and application has progressed to an
extent that these notifications are no longer needed or desired by the
EPA. Furthermore, these notifications do not appear in the reporting
requirements outlined in the reporting requirement tables (Table 4 to
40 CFR part 60, subpart CCCC and Table 3 to 40 CFR part 60, subpart
DDDD), nor the other notification requirements, so they introduced an
unintended inconsistency within the rule. To resolve this, we are
deleting the current subparagraphs (1) and (2) of these sections and
renumbering the remaining subparagraphs sequentially to streamline
these requirements.
8. Clarification of Reduced Testing Requirements
It has come to the EPA's attention that there is confusion
regarding how reduced testing is applied after a source has
demonstrated good performance and has skipped testing for 2 years (see
40 CFR 60.2155 and 60.2720). Stakeholders suggest that the current
CISWI rule language would have a good-performing source return to an
annual testing schedule after being able to skip testing for 2 years,
with no opportunity for additional reduced testing. It was not the
EPA's intent to only offer this allowance once when developing these
provisions. To the contrary, the EPA intended this allowance to be
available for as long as good performance could be reaffirmed with
testing every 3 years instead of annually (see 76 FR 15714, March 21,
2011). The intended sequence of testing consisted of two consecutive
annual tests showing 75 percent or less of the applicable standard is
achieved; followed by 2 years of testing being skipped; followed by an
annual test showing that 75 percent of the standard is achieved;
followed by 2 years of
[[Page 15851]]
testing being skipped; etc. In other words, starting with the initial
compliance test (first year), for the first and second years, a source
would perform compliance testing; for the third and fourth years, the
source could skip testing (if both the first and second-year results
showed that the source achieves 75 percent or less of the applicable
standard); for the fifth year a source would perform compliance
testing; for the sixth and seventh years, the source could skip testing
(if the fifth-year results showed that the source achieves 75 percent
or less of the applicable standard); for the eighth year, a source
would perform compliance testing, and so on. Since the promulgation of
these standards, these skip testing provisions have been refined and
promulgated during regulatory development efforts in the CAA section
129 rulemakings for sewage sludge incinerators (40 CFR part 60,
subparts LLLL and MMMM). In this action, the EPA is clarifying the
ongoing allowance for reduced testing provisions we intended, based
largely on language used in the recent sewage sludge incinerator rule
(see 81 FR 26039, April 29, 2016).
9. Clarification of Deviation Reporting Requirements for Continuous
Monitoring Data
The EPA has become aware of some unclear requirements in the
deviation reporting requirements of 40 CFR 60.2215(a) and 60.2775(a).
In particular, the requirements for continuously measured parameters or
emissions using CEMS are not clearly outlined within these sections.
While these provisions are clear for 3-hour average parameters and
performance testing, the EPA recognizes that 30-day averages allowed
for energy recovery units and particulate matter CEMS were
inadvertently omitted, as well as requirements for any other 30-day
average measured using CEMS that deviated from an emission limit. The
EPA is adding language to these paragraphs to clarify that deviations
for these other operating parameters or CEMS measurements that deviate
from an operating limit or emissions limitation must be included in a
deviation report.
10. Clarification of ACI Requirements
Since promulgation of the 2016 CISWI final rule, the EPA has
received various questions from implementing agencies regarding the
applicability of CISWI to ACI. While the limited requirements of ACIs
burning only wood waste, clean lumber, or a mixture of wood waste,
clean lumber, and/or yard waste are defined within the rule, ACIs'
status as a CISWI-affected source is unclear to some implementing
agencies as they work to prepare state plans and negative declarations
because of confusing language in the 2016 CISWI Rule. See 40 CFR
60.2550. Specifically, the section of the EG addressing the units
subject to the final CISWI rule includes a reference to ACI in 40 CFR
60.2550(a)(1), but 40 CFR 60.2550(a)(2) further states that only units
that meet the definition of a CISWI unit are subject to the final rule,
and ACIs do not meet the regulatory definition of a CISWI unit.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ The phrasing of the regulations at 40 CFR 60.2010 and
60.2015 of the NSPS similarly confuse the applicability of the final
CISWI rule to new ACIs located at commercial and industrial
facilities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notwithstanding that provision, the record demonstrates that the
EPA considers ACIs located at commercial and industrial facilities and
otherwise meeting the definition of an ACI as being CISWI-affected
sources. See CAA section 129(g)(1)(C) (defining ACIs) and 40 CFR
60.2245-2260 of the NSPS and 60.2810-2870 of the EG (setting forth the
CISWI EG requirements applicable to ACI). Facilities can have CISWI-
affected ACIs even if they do not have CISWI units located at the
facility. If an ACI begins burning solid waste as defined in the Non
Hazardous Secondary Materials rule (see 40 CFR part 241) in addition
to, or instead of, wood waste, clean lumber, or a mixture of wood
waste, clean lumber, and/or yard waste, it is a solid waste
incineration unit that is subject to the applicable numerical emission
standards contained in CISWI or another CAA section 129 standard,
depending on the type of waste combusted (e.g., such as a unit burning
more than 30-percent municipal solid waste would be a municipal solid
waste incineration unit instead of a CISWI unit).
The EPA's intent is further demonstrated in a response to comment
on title V permitting requirements for ACIs in the preamble to the
March 21, 2011, final CISWI rule (76 FR 15741):
Commenters are correct that ACIs are not solid waste incineration
units pursuant to CAA section 129(g)(1)(C), but that is only correct if
the units ``only burn wood wastes, yard wastes and clean lumber and
[they] * * * comply with opacity limitations to be established by the
Administrator by rule.'' The EPA has established opacity limitations
for ACIs pursuant to CAA sections 111 and 129.
Pursuant to CAA section 502(a), sources subject to standards or
regulations under CAA section 111 must obtain a title V permit;
therefore, ACIs are required to obtain a title V permit. As commenters
note, the EPA may exempt minor and area sources from the requirement to
obtain a title V permit, but the EPA must first determine that
compliance with title V requirements is ``impracticable, infeasible, or
unnecessarily burdensome'' for the sources before exempting them (CAA
section 502(a)). The EPA has not made the necessary finding pursuant to
CAA section 502(a) for ACIs in any of the CAA section 129 rulemakings,
and we believe that ACIs exist at CAA section 129 facilities other than
at the commercial and industrial facilities subject to this final rule.
Because we think it is important to treat all ACIs in the same manner,
we decline to consider a title V exemption for minor and area source
ACIs at commercial and industrial facilities.
As the record demonstrates, the EPA determined that ACIs located at
commercial and industrial facilities are CISWI-affected sources that
must be included in state plans and regulated consistent with the final
CISWI standards applicable to such units. To address the uncertainty
created by the CISWI rule, the EPA is clarifying the affected source
status of ACIs by revising the regulations to make clear that ``air
curtain incinerators'' do not need to meet the definition of a ``CISWI
unit'' to be subject to the CISWI rule (40 CFR 60.2010 of the NSPS and
40 CFR 60.2500 and 60.2550 of the EG).
B. Typographical Errors and Corrections
In this action, we are also revising the final rule to correct
minor typographical errors and clarify provisions that are unclear. The
list of these changes is included in the Typographical Errors and
Corrections for Final Technical Amendments memorandum in Docket ID No.
EPA-OAR-HQ-2003-0119.
C. Environmental, Energy, and Economic Impacts
This action makes technical and clarifying corrections to aid in
implementation and compliance, but does not make substantive changes to
the February 7, 2013, final CISWI rule (78 FR 9112).\5\ As such, there
are no environmental, energy, or economic impacts associated with this
final action. The impacts associated with the CISWI rule were discussed
in detail in
[[Page 15852]]
the February 7, 2013, final CISWI rule document.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\5\ The June 23, 2016, final CISWI rule amendments (81 FR 40956)
also did not entail any environmental, energy or economic impacts,
and therefore the February 7, 2013, final CISWI rule presents the
impacts associated with the CISWI rule.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
Additional information about these statutes and Executive Orders
can be found at https://www.epa.gov/laws-regulations/laws-and-executive-orders.
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. Executive Order 13771: Reducing Regulations and Controlling
Regulatory Costs
This action is considered an Executive Order 13771 deregulatory
action. This final rule provides meaningful burden reduction by
providing additional regulatory flexibilities that address several
implementation issues raised by the stakeholders.
C. Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA)
This action does not impose any new information collection burden
under the PRA. OMB has previously approved the information collection
activities contained in the existing regulations and has assigned OMB
Control number 2060-0662 for 40 CFR part 60, subpart CCCC, and OMB
Control number 2060-0664 for 40 CFR part 60, subpart DDDD. This action
is believed to result in no changes to the information collection
requirements of the 2016 CISWI rule, so that the information collection
estimate of project cost and hour burden from the 2016 CISWI Rule have
not been revised.
D. Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA)
I certify that this action will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities under the RFA. 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 final 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 2016 CISWI
rule, which also did not impose any additional regulatory requirements
beyond 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.
E. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA)
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. The action imposes no enforceable duty on any state,
local, or tribal governments, or the private sector.
F. 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.
G. Executive Order 13175: Consultation and Coordination With Indian
Tribal Governments
This action does not have tribal implications as specified in
Executive Order 13175. 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.
H. 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.
I. 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.
J. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA)
This rulemaking does not involve technical standards.
K. Executive Order 12898: Federal Actions To Address Environmental
Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations
The EPA believes that this action does not have disproportionately
high and adverse human health or environmental effects on minority
populations, low-income populations, and/or indigenous peoples, as
specified in Executive Order 12898 (58 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
It does not affect the level of protection provided to human health
or the environment. The final corrections do not relax the control
measures on sources regulated by the 2016 CISWI rule, which also did
not relax any control measures on sources regulated by the February
2013 final CISWI rule. Therefore, this final action will not cause
emissions increases from these sources. The February 2013 final CISWI
rule reduced 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.
L. Congressional Review Act (CRA)
This action is subject to the CRA, and the EPA will submit a rule
report to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of
the United States. This action is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5
U.S.C. 804(2).

Subpart CCCC--Standards of Performance for Commercial and
Industrial Solid Waste Incineration Units
Introduction
Sec. 60.2000 What does this subpart do?
This subpart establishes new source performance standards for
commercial and industrial solid waste incineration units (CISWIs) and
air curtain incinerators (ACIs).
Sec. 60.2005 When did this subpart become effective?
This subpart became effective on August 7, 2013. Some of the
requirements in this subpart apply to planning the CISWI or ACI (i.e.,
the preconstruction requirements in
[[Page 15854]]
Sec. Sec. 60.2045 and 60.2050). Other requirements such as the
emission limitations and operating limits apply after the CISWI or ACI
begins operation.

(2) A CISWI or ACI that commenced reconstruction or modification
after August 7, 2013; and
(3) Incinerators and ACIs, as defined in this subpart, 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, are considered new
incineration units and remain subject to the applicable requirements of
this subpart 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).
(b) This subpart does not affect your CISWI or ACI if you make
physical or operational changes to your incineration unit primarily to
comply with subpart DDDD of this part (Emission Guidelines and
Compliance Times for Commercial and Industrial Solid Waste Incineration
Units). Such changes do not qualify as reconstruction or modification
under this subpart.
Sec. 60.2020 What combustion units are exempt from this subpart?

December 9, 2004).
Sec. 60.2030 Who implements and enforces this subpart?
(a) This subpart can be implemented and enforced by the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), or a delegated authority such as
your state, local, or tribal agency. If the EPA Administrator has
delegated authority to your state, local, or tribal agency, then that
agency (as well as EPA) has the authority to implement and enforce this
subpart. You should contact your EPA Regional Office to find out if
this subpart is delegated to your state, local, or tribal agency.
(b) In delegating implementation and enforcement authority of this
subpart to
[[Page 15855]]
a state, local, or tribal agency, the authorities contained in
paragraph (c) of this section are retained by the EPA Administrator and
are not transferred to the state, local, or tribal agency.
(c) The authorities that will not be delegated to state, local, or
tribal agencies are specified in paragraphs (c)(1) through (9) of this
section:
(1) Approval of alternatives to the emission limitations in tables
1, 5, 6, 7, and 8 of this subpart and operating limits established
under Sec. 60.2110;
(2) Approval of major alternatives to test methods;
(3) Approval of major alternatives to monitoring;
(4) Approval of major alternatives to recordkeeping and reporting;
(5) The requirements in Sec. 60.2115;
(6) The requirements in Sec. 60.2100(b)(2);

(8) Performance test and data reduction waivers under Sec.
60.8(b)(4) and (5);
(9) Approval of an alternative to any electronic reporting to the
EPA required by this subpart.
Sec. 60.2035 How are these new source performance standards
structured?
These new source performance standards contain the eleven major
components listed in paragraphs (a) through (k) of this section:
(a) Preconstruction siting analysis;
(b) Waste management plan;
(c) Operator training and qualification;
(d) Emission limitations and operating limits;
(e) Performance testing;
(f) Initial compliance requirements;
(g) Continuous compliance requirements;
(h) Monitoring;
(i) Recordkeeping and reporting;
(j) Definitions; and
(k) Tables.
Sec. 60.2040 Do all eleven components of these new source
performance standards apply at the same time?
No. You must meet the preconstruction siting analysis and waste
management plan requirements before you commence construction of the
CISWI. The operator training and qualification, emission limitations,
operating limits, performance testing and compliance, monitoring, and
most recordkeeping and reporting requirements are met after the CISWI
begins operation.
Preconstruction Siting Analysis
Sec. 60.2045 Who must prepare a siting analysis?
(a) You must prepare a siting analysis if you plan to commence
construction of an incinerator after December 1, 2000.
(b) You must prepare a siting analysis for CISWIs that commenced
construction after June 4, 2010, or that commenced reconstruction or
modification after August 7, 2013.
(c) You must prepare a siting analysis if you are required to
submit an initial application for a construction permit under 40 CFR
part 51, subpart I, or 40 CFR part 52, as applicable, for the
reconstruction or modification of your CISWI.
Sec. 60.2050 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's impacts that are prepared to comply
with state, local, or other federal regulatory requirements may be used
to satisfy the requirements of this section, provided they include the
consideration of air pollution control alternatives specified in
paragraph (a) of this section.
(c) You must complete and submit the siting requirements of this
section as required under Sec. 60.2190(c) prior to commencing
construction.
Waste Management Plan
Sec. 60.2055 What is a waste management plan?
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.
Sec. 60.2060 When must I submit my waste management plan?
(a) You must submit a waste management plan prior to commencing
construction.
(b) For CISWIs that commence reconstruction or modification after
August 7, 2013, you must submit a waste management plan prior to the
commencement of modification or reconstruction.
Sec. 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 any other
environmental or energy impacts they might have.
Operator Training and Qualification
Sec. 60.2070 What are the operator training and qualification
requirements?
(a) No CISWI can be operated unless a fully trained and qualified
CISWI operator is accessible, either at the facility or can be at the
facility within 1 hour. The trained and qualified CISWI operator may
operate the CISWI directly or be the direct supervisor of one or more
other plant personnel who operate the unit. If all qualified CISWI
operators are temporarily not accessible, you must follow the
procedures in Sec. 60.2100.
(b) Operator training and qualification must be obtained through a
state-approved program or by completing the requirements included in
paragraph (c) of this section.
(c) Training must be obtained by completing an incinerator operator
training course that includes, at a minimum, the three elements
described in paragraphs (c)(1) through (3) of this section:
(1) Training on the eleven subjects listed in paragraphs (c)(1)(i)
through (xi) of this section;
(i) Environmental concerns, including types of emissions;

Occupational Safety and Health Administration workplace standards;
(x) Pollution prevention; and
(xi) Waste management practices.
(2) An examination designed and administered by the instructor.
(3) Written material covering the training course topics that may
serve as reference material following completion of the course.
Sec. 60.2075 When must the operator training course be completed?
The operator training course must be completed by the later of the
three dates specified in paragraphs (a) through (c) of this section:
(a) Six months after your CISWI startup;
(b) December 3, 2001; and
(c) The date before an employee assumes responsibility for
operating the CISWI or assumes responsibility for supervising the
operation of the CISWI.
Sec. 60.2080 How do I obtain my operator qualification?
(a) You must obtain operator qualification by completing a training
course that satisfies the criteria under Sec. 60.2070(b).
(b) Qualification is valid from the date on which the training
course is completed and the operator successfully passes the
examination required under Sec. 60.2070(c)(2).
Sec. 60.2085 How do I maintain my operator qualification?
To maintain qualification, you must complete an annual review or
refresher course covering, at a minimum, the five topics described in
paragraphs (a) through (e) of this section:
(a) Update of regulations;
(b) Incinerator operation, including startup and shutdown
procedures, waste charging, and ash handling;
(c) Inspection and maintenance;
(d) Prevention and correction of malfunctions or conditions that
may lead to malfunction; and
(e) Discussion of operating problems encountered by attendees.
Sec. 60.2090 How do I renew my lapsed operator qualification?
You must renew a lapsed operator qualification by one of the two
methods specified in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section:
(a) For a lapse of less than 3 years, you must complete a standard
annual refresher course described in Sec. 60.2085; and
(b) For a lapse of 3 years or more, you must repeat the initial
qualification requirements in Sec. 60.2080(a).
Sec. 60.2095 What site-specific documentation is required?
(a) Documentation must be available at the facility and readily
accessible for all CISWI operators that addresses the ten topics
described in paragraphs (a)(1) through (10) of this section. You must
maintain this information and the training records required by
paragraph (c) of this section in a manner that they can be readily
accessed and are suitable for inspection upon request:
(1) Summary of the applicable standards under this subpart;

(b) You must establish a program for reviewing the information
listed in paragraph (a) of this section with each incinerator operator:
(1) The initial review of the information listed in paragraph (a)
of this section must be conducted within 6 months after the effective
date of this subpart or prior to an employee's assumption of
responsibilities for operation of the CISWI, whichever date is later;
and
(2) Subsequent annual reviews of the information listed in
paragraph (a) of this section must be conducted no later than 12 months
following the previous review.
(c) You must also maintain the information specified in paragraphs
(c)(1) through (3) of this section:
(1) Records showing the names of CISWI operators who have completed
review of the information in Sec. 60.2095(a) as required by Sec.
60.2095(b), including the date of the initial review and all subsequent
annual reviews;
(2) Records showing the names of the CISWI operators who have
completed the operator training requirements under Sec. 60.2070, met
the criteria for qualification under Sec. 60.2080, and maintained or
renewed their qualification under Sec. 60.2085 or Sec. 60.2090.
Records must include documentation of training, the dates of the
initial and refresher training, and the dates of their qualification
and all subsequent renewals of such qualifications; and
(3) For each qualified operator, the phone and/or pager number at

Sec. 60.2100 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 may be operated by other plant
personnel familiar with the operation of the CISWI who have completed a
review of the information specified in Sec. 60.2095(a) within the past
12 months. However, you must record the period when all qualified
operators were not accessible and include this deviation in the annual
report as specified under Sec. 60.2210; and
(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; and
(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. 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 is
disapproved, the CISWI 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.
60.2070(a); and
(ii) You notify the Administrator that a qualified operator is
accessible and that you are resuming operation.

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,
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) A CISWI or ACI 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 for
ACIs 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) of this section, 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; and
(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; and
(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 hydrogen chloride (HCl) emission limitation.
(b) You must meet the operating limits established during the
initial performance test 60 days after your CISWI 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 and you do not use a particulate matter (PM) continuous
parameter monitoring system (CPMS) for monitoring PM compliance, 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 and you do not use a PM CPMS for monitoring PM
compliance, 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), 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
for 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 either a particulate matter CEMS or a particulate
matter CPMS, 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
[[Page 15858]]
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; and
(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
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; and
(D) If none of the steps in paragraphs (i)(2)(i)(A) through (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] TR16AP19.006
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] TR16AP19.007
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 paragraph (2)(i) of this section.
(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] TR16AP19.008
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 paragraph (2)(i) of this secction, and
[[Page 15859]]
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] TR16AP19.009
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.
Sec. 60.2115 What if I do not use a wet scrubber, fabric filter,
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
established during the initial performance test and continuously
monitored thereafter. You must submit the petition at least sixty days
before the performance test is scheduled to begin. Your petition must

section:
(a) Identification of the specific parameters you propose to use as
additional operating limits;
(b) A discussion of the relationship between these parameters and
emissions of regulated pollutants, identifying how emissions of
regulated pollutants change with changes in these parameters and how
limits on these parameters will serve to limit emissions of regulated
pollutants;
(c) A discussion of how you will establish the upper and/or lower
values for these parameters which will establish the operating limits
on these parameters;
(d) A discussion identifying the methods you will use to measure
and the instruments you will use to monitor these parameters, as well
as the relative accuracy and precision of these methods and
instruments; and
(e) A discussion identifying the frequency and methods for
recalibrating the instruments you will use for monitoring these
parameters.
Performance Testing
Sec. 60.2125 How do I conduct the initial and annual performance
test?
(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
test is representative of the waste burned under normal operating
conditions by maintaining a log of the quantity of waste burned (as
required in Sec. 60.2175(b)(1)) and the types of waste burned during
the performance test.
(c) All performance tests must be conducted using the minimum run

Method 3A or 3B of appendix A of this part must be used simultaneously
with each method (except when using Method 9 and Method 22).
(f) All pollutant concentrations, except for opacity, must be
adjusted to 7 percent oxygen using equation 5 of this section:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR16AP19.010
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);
[[Page 15860]]
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
section:
(1) Measure the concentration of each dioxin/furan tetra-through
octa-chlorinated isomer emitted using EPA Method 23 at 40 CFR part 60,
appendix A-7;
(2) Quantify isomers meeting identification criteria 2, 3, 4, and 5
in Section 5.3.2.5 of Method 23, regardless of whether the isomers meet
identification criteria 1 and 7. You must quantify the isomers per
Section 9.0 of Method 23. (Note: You may reanalyze the sample aliquot
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 paragraphs (g)(1) and (2) of this section,
multiply the isomer concentration by its corresponding toxic
equivalency factor specified in table 3 of this subpart; and
(4) Sum the products calculated in accordance with paragraph (g)(3)
of this section to obtain the total concentration of dioxins/furans
emitted in terms of toxic equivalency.

determine compliance with the opacity limit using Method 9 at 40 CFR
part 60, appendix A-4, based on three 1-hour blocks consisting of ten
6-minute average opacity values, unless you are required to install a
continuous opacity monitoring system, consistent with Sec. Sec.
60.2145 and 60.2165.
(j) You must determine dioxins/furans total mass basis by following
the procedures in paragraphs (j)(1) through (3) of this section:

in Section 5.3.2.5 of Method 23, regardless of whether the isomers meet
identification criteria 1 and 7. You must quantify the isomers per
Section 9.0 of Method 23. (Note: You may reanalyze the sample aliquot
or split to reduce the number of isomers not meeting identification
criteria 1 or 7 of Section 5.3.2.5.); and
(3) Sum the quantities measured in accordance with paragraphs
(j)(1) and (2) of this section to obtain the total concentration of
dioxins/furans emitted in terms of total mass basis.

emission limitations and establish the operating limits?
(a) You must conduct a performance test, as required under
Sec. Sec. 60.2125 and 60.2105to 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. 60.2110 or Sec. 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.
(b) As an alternative to conducting a performance test, as required
under Sec. Sec. 60.2125 and 60.2105, you may use a 30-day rolling
average of the 1-hour arithmetic average CEMS data, including CEMS data
during startup and shutdown as defined in this subpart, to determine
compliance with the emission limitations in Table 1 of this subpart or
tables 5 through 8 of this subpart. You must conduct a performance
evaluation of each continuous monitoring system within 180 days of
installation of the monitoring system. The initial performance
evaluation must be conducted prior to collecting CEMS data that will be
used for the initial compliance demonstration.
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 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.
(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.
Sec. 60.2141 By what date must I conduct the initial air pollution
control device inspection?
(a) The initial air pollution control device inspection must be
conducted within 60 days after installation of the control device and
the associated CISWI 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) General compliance with standards, considering some units may
be able to switch between solid waste and non-waste fuel combustion, is
specified in paragraph (a)(1) through (6) of this section.
(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, 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
[[Page 15861]]
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, 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 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; and
(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 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.
(f) For energy recovery units, you must conduct an annual
performance test for opacity (except where particulate matter CEMS or
continuous opacity monitoring systems are used are used) and the
pollutants listed in table 6 of this subpart.
(g) You may elect to demonstrate initial and continuous compliance
with the carbon monoxide emission limit using a carbon monoxide CEMS,
as described in Sec. 60.2165(o).
(h) Coal and liquid/gas energy recovery units with average annual
heat input rates greater than or equal to 250 million British thermal
units/hour (MMBtu/hr) may elect to demonstrate initial and 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 PM 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 initial and continuous 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/hr and less than 250 MMBtu/hr that do
not use a wet scrubber, fabric filter with bag leak detection system,
an electrostatic precipitator, particulate matter CEMS, or particulate
matter CPMS, you must install, operate, certify and maintain a
continuous opacity monitoring system (COMS) according to the procedures
in Sec. 60.2165(m).
(j) For waste-burning kilns, you must conduct an annual performance
test for cadmium, lead, carbon monoxide, dioxins/furans and hydrogen
chloride as listed in Table 7 of this subpart, unless you choose to
demonstrate initial and continuous compliance using CEMS, as allowed in
paragraph (u) of this section. If you do not use an acid gas wet
scrubber or dry scrubber, you must determine compliance with the
hydrogen chloride emissions limit using a HCl CEMS according to the
requirements in paragraph (j)(1) of this section. You must determine
compliance with the mercury emissions limit using a mercury CEMS or an
integrated sorbent trap monitoring system according to paragraph (j)(2)
of this section. You must determine compliance with nitrogen oxides and
[[Page 15862]]
sulfur dioxide using CEMS. You must determine compliance with
particulate matter using CPMS.
(1) If you monitor compliance with the HCl emissions limit by
operating an HCl CEMS, you must do so in accordance with Performance
Specification 15 (PS 15) of appendix B to 40 CFR part 60 or PS 18 of
appendix B to 40 CFR part 60. You must operate, maintain, and quality
assure a HCl CEMS installed and certified under PS 15 according to the
quality assurance requirements in Procedure 1 of appendix F to 40 CFR
part 60 except that the Relative Accuracy Test Audit requirements of
Procedure 1 must be replaced with the validation requirements and
criteria of sections 11.1.1 and 12.0 of PS 15. You must operate,
maintain and quality assure a HCl CEMS installed and certified under PS
18 according to the quality assurance requirements in Procedure 6 of
appendix F to 40 CFR part 60. For any performance specification that
you use, you must use Method 321 of appendix A to 40 CFR part 63 as the
reference test method for conducting relative accuracy testing. The
span value and calibration requirements in paragraphs (j)(1)(i) and
(ii) of this section apply to all HCl CEMS used under this subpart:
(i) You must use a measurement span value for any HCl CEMS of 0-10
ppmvw unless the monitor is installed on a kiln without an inline raw
mill. Kilns without an inline raw mill may use a higher span value
sufficient to quantify all expected emissions concentrations. The HCl
CEMS data recorder output range must include the full range of expected
HCl concentration values which would include those expected during
``mill off'' conditions. The corresponding data recorder range shall be
documented in the site-specific monitoring plan and associated records;
(ii) In order to quality assure data measured above the span value,
you must use one of the three options in paragraphs (j)(1)(ii)(A)
through (C) of this section:
(A) Include a second span that encompasses the HCl emission
concentrations expected to be encountered during ``mill off''
conditions. This second span may be rounded to a multiple of 5 ppm of
total HCl. The requirements of the appropriate HCl monitor performance
specification shall be followed for this second span with the exception
that a RATA with the mill off is not required;
(B) Quality assure any data above the span value by proving
instrument linearity beyond the span value established in paragraph
(j)(1)(i) of this section using the following procedure. Conduct a
weekly ``above span linearity'' calibration challenge of the monitoring
system using a reference gas with a certified value greater than your
highest expected hourly concentration or greater than 75% of the
highest measured hourly concentration. The ``above span'' reference gas
must meet the requirements of the applicable performance specification
and must be introduced to the measurement system at the probe. Record
and report the results of this procedure as you would for a daily
calibration. The ``above span linearity'' challenge is successful if
the value measured by the HCl CEMS falls within 10 percent of the
certified value of the reference gas. If the value measured by the HCl
CEMS during the above span linearity challenge exceeds 10 percent of
the certified value of the reference gas, the monitoring system must be
evaluated and repaired and a new ``above span linearity'' challenge met
before returning the HCl CEMS to service, or data above span from the
HCl CEMS must be subject to the quality assurance procedures
established in (j)(1)(ii)(D) of this section. In this manner values
measured by the HCl CEMS during the above span linearity challenge
exceeding +/-20 percent of the certified value of the reference gas
must be normalized using equation 6;
(C) Quality assure any data above the span value established in
paragraph (j)(1)(i) of this section using the following procedure. Any
time two consecutive one-hour average measured concentration of HCl
exceeds the span value you must, within 24 hours before or after,
introduce a higher, ``above span'' HCl reference gas standard to the
HCl CEMS. The ``above span'' reference gas must meet the requirements
of the applicable performance specification and target a concentration
level between 50 and 150 percent of the highest expected hourly
concentration measured during the period of measurements above span,
and must be introduced at the probe. While this target represents a
desired concentration range that is not always achievable in practice,
it is expected that the intent to meet this range is demonstrated by
the value of the reference gas. Expected values may include above span
calibrations done before or after the above-span measurement period.
Record and report the results of this procedure as you would for a
daily calibration. The ``above span'' calibration is successful if the
value measured by the HCl CEMS is within 20 percent of the certified
value of the reference gas. If the value measured by the HCl CEMS is
not within 20 percent of the certified value of the reference gas, then
you must normalize the stack gas values measured above span as
described in paragraph (j)(1)(ii)(D) of this section. If the ``above
span'' calibration is conducted during the period when measured
emissions are above span and there is a failure to collect the one data
point in an hour due to the calibration duration, then you must
determine the emissions average for that missed hour as the average of
hourly averages for the hour preceding the missed hour and the hour
following the missed hour. In an hour where an ``above span''
calibration is being conducted and one or more data points are
collected, the emissions average is represented by the average of all
valid data points collected in that hour;
(D) In the event that the ``above span'' calibration is not
successful (i.e., the HCl CEMS measured value is not within 20 percent
of the certified value of the reference gas), then you must normalize
the one-hour average stack gas values measured above the span during
the 24-hour period preceding or following the ``above span''
calibration for reporting based on the HCl CEMS response to the
reference gas as shown in equation 6:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR16AP19.011
Only one ``above span'' calibration is needed per 24-hour period.
(2) Compliance with the mercury emissions limit must be determined
using a mercury CEMS or integrated sorbent trap monitoring system
according to the following requirements:
(i) You must operate a mercury CEMS system in accordance with
performance specification 12A of 40 CFR part 60, appendix B or an
integrated sorbent trap monitoring system in accordance with
performance specification 12B of 40 CFR part 60, appendix B; these
monitoring systems must be quality assured according to procedure 5 of
40
[[Page 15863]]
CFR 60, appendix F. For the purposes of emissions calculations when
using an integrated sorbent trap monitoring system, the mercury
concentration determined for each sampling period must be assigned to
each hour during the sampling period. If you choose to comply with the
production-rate based mercury limit for your waste-burning kiln, you
must also monitor hourly clinker production and determine the hourly
mercury emissions rate in pounds per million ton of clinker produced.
You must demonstrate compliance with the mercury emissions limit using
a 30-day rolling average of these 1-hour mercury concentrations or mass
emissions rates, including CEMS and integerated sorbent trap monitoring
system 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. Integerated
sorbent trap monitoring system and 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;
(ii) Owners or operators using a mercury CEMS or integrated sorbent
trap monitoring system to determine mass emission rate 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 specification 6
of 40 CFR part 60, appendix B, and conducting an annual relative
accuracy test of the continuous emission rate monitoring system
according to section 8.2 of performance specification 6; and
(iii) The owner or operator of a waste-burning kiln must
demonstrate initial compliance by operating a mercury CEMS or
integrated sorbent trap monitoring system 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;
and
(2) Develop a site-specific monitoring plan according to the
requirements in paragraph (l) of this section. This requirement also
applies to you if you petition the EPA Administrator for alternative
monitoring parameters under Sec. 60.13(i).
(l) For each continuous monitoring system required in this section,
you must develop and submit to the EPA Administrator for approval a
site-specific monitoring plan according to the requirements of this

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
system, you must meet the requirements in paragraphs (l) and (o)(1)
through (4) of this section:
(1) Install the pH sensor in a position that provides a
representative measurement of scrubber effluent pH;
(2) Ensure the sample is properly mixed and representative of the
fluid to be measured;
(3) Conduct a performance evaluation of the pH monitoring system in
accordance with your monitoring plan at least once each process
operating day; and
(4) Conduct a performance evaluation (including a two-point
calibration with one of the two buffer solutions having a pH within 1

accordance with your monitoring plan at the time of each performance
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
[[Page 15864]]

calibrate, maintain, and continuously operate a bag leak detection
system as specified in paragraphs (l) and (r)(1) through (5) of this
section:
(1) Install a bag leak detection sensor(s) in a position(s) that
will be representative of the relative or absolute particulate matter
loadings for each exhaust stack, roof vent, or compartment (e.g., for a
positive pressure fabric filter) of the fabric filter;

where it is observed readily by plant operating personnel.
(s) For facilities using a CEMS to demonstrate initial and
continuous 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(l) to measure sulfur
dioxide. The sulfur dioxide CEMS must follow the procedures and methods
specified in paragraph (s) of this section. For sources 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:
(i) For sulfur dioxide, EPA Reference Method 6 or 6C, or as an
alternative ANSI/ASME PTC 19.10-1981 (incorporated by reference, see
Sec. 60.17) must be used; and
(ii) For oxygen (or carbon dioxide), EPA Reference Method 3A or 3B,
or as an alternative ANSI/ASME PTC 19.10-1981 (incorporated by
reference, see Sec. 60.17), must be used.
(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 subpart.
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 subpart.
(3) Conduct accuracy determinations quarterly and calibration drift
tests daily in accordance with procedure 1 in appendix F of this part.
(t) For facilities using a CEMS to demonstrate initial and
continuous compliance with the nitrogen oxides emission limit,
compliance with the nitrogen oxides emission limit may be demonstrated
by using the CEMS specified in Sec. 60.2165 to measure nitrogen
oxides. The nitrogen oxides CEMS must follow the procedures and methods
specified in paragraphs (t)(1) through (4) 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

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 (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;
(iii) Each sample must represent a 1-hour average; and
(iv) A minimum of three runs must be performed.
(u) For facilities using a CEMS or an integrated sorbent trap
monitoring system for mercury to demonstrate initial and
continuouscompliance with any of the emission limits of this subpart,
you must complete the following:
(1) Demonstrate compliance with the appropriate emission limit(s)
using a 30-day rolling average of 1-hour arithmetic average emission
concentrations, including CEMS or integrated sorbent trap monitoring
systems data during startup and shutdown as defined in this
[[Page 15865]]
subpart, calculated using equation 19-19 in section 12.4.1 of EPA
Reference Method 19 at appendix A-7 of this part. The 1-hour arithmetic
averages for CEMS must be calculated using the data points required
under Sec. 60.13(e)(2). Except for CEMS or integrated sorbent trap
monitoring systems data during startup and shutdown, the 1-hour
arithmetic averages used to calculate the 30-day rolling average
emission concentrations must be corrected to 7 percent oxygen (dry
basis). Integrated sorbent trap monitoring systems or 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; and
(2) Operate all CEMS and integrated sorbent trap monitoring systems
in accordance with the applicable procedures under appendices B and F
of this part.
(v) Use of the bypass stack at any time is an emissions standards
deviation for PM, HCl, lead, cadmium, mercury, nitrogen oxides, sulfur
dioxide, and dioxin/furans.
(w) For energy recovery units with a design heat input capacity of
100 MMBtu/hr 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 (w)(1)
through (4) of this section:
(1) The oxygen analyzer system must be installed by the initial
performance test date specified in Sec. 60.2140;
(2) You must operate the oxygen trim system within compliance with
paragraph (w)(3) of this section at all times;
(3) You must maintain the oxygen level such that the 30-day rolling
average that is established as the operating limit for oxygen is not
below the lowest hourly average oxygen concentration measured during
the most recent CO performance test; and
(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.
(x) For energy recovery units with annual average heat input rates
greater than or equal to 250 MMBtu/hr 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 (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
(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 or the 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; and
(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
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.
(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 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 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;
(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.
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 paragraph (x) of
this section; and
(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),
[[Page 15866]]
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 7:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR16AP19.012
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; and
(3) For purposes of determining the combined emissions from kilns
equipped with an alkali bypass or that exhaust kiln gases to a coal
mill that exhausts through a separate stack, instead of installing a
CEMS or PM CPMS on the alkali bypass stack or in-line coal mill stack,
the results of the initial and subsequent performance test can be used
to demonstrate compliance with the relevant emissions limit. A
performance test must be conducted on an annual basis (between 11 and
13 calendar months following the previous performance test).
Sec. 60.2150 By what date must I conduct the annual performance
test?
You must conduct annual performance tests between 11 and 13 months
of the previous performance test.
Sec. 60.2151 By what date must I conduct the annual air pollution
control device inspection?
On an annual basis (no more than 12 months following the previous
annual air pollution control device inspection), you must complete the
air pollution control device inspection as described in Sec. 60.2141.
Sec. 60.2155 May I conduct performance testing less often?
(a) You must conduct annual performance tests according to the
schedule specified in Sec. 60.2150, with the following exceptions:
(1) You may conduct a repeat performance test at any time to
establish new values for the operating limits, as specified in Sec.
60.2160. New operating limits become effective on the date that the
performance test report is submitted to the EPA's Central Data Exchange
or postmarked, per the requirements of Sec. 60.2235(b). The
Administrator may request a repeat performance test at any time;
(2) You must repeat the performance test within 60 days of a
process change, as defined in Sec. 60.2265;
(3) You can conduct performance tests less often if you meet the
following conditions: your performance tests for the pollutant for at
least 2 consecutive performance tests demonstrates that the emission
level for the pollutant is no greater than the emission level specified
in paragraph (a)(3)(i) or (ii) of this section, as applicable; there
are no changes in the operation of the affected source or air pollution
control equipment that could increase emissions; 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. In this case, you
do not have to conduct a performance test for that pollutant for the
next 2 years. You must conduct a performance test for the pollutant no
more than 37 months following the previous performance test for the
pollutant. If the emission level for your CISWI continues to meet the
emission level specified in paragraph (a)(3)(i) or (ii) of this
section, as applicable, you may choose to conduct performance tests for
the pollutant every third year, as long as there are no changes in the
operation of the affected source or air pollution control equipment
that could increase emissions. Each such performance test must be
conducted no more than 37 months after the previous performance test.
(i) For particulate matter, hydrogen chloride, mercury, nitrogen
oxides, sulfur dioxide, cadmium, lead and dioxins/furans, the emission
level equal to 75 percent of the applicable emission limit in table 1
or tables 5 through 8 of this subpart, as applicable; and
(ii) For fugitive emissions, visible emissions (of combustion ash
from the ash conveying system) for 2 percent of the time during each of
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 does not
meet the emission level specified in paragraph (a)(3)(i) or (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. 60.2160 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
to demonstrate compliance.
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 and you do not use a PM CPMS or PM CEMS for monitoring PM
compliance, you must install, calibrate, maintain, and continuously
operate a bag leak detection system as specified in paragraphs (b)(1)
through (8) of this section:
[[Page 15867]]
(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; and
(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) or the minimum reagent flow
rate measured as 3-hour block averages at all times; and
(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 and you do not use a PM CPMS for
monitoring PM compliance, 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, you must install, calibrate, maintain, and operate a CEMS for
monitoring hydrogen chloride emissions discharged to the atmosphere, as
specified in Sec. 60.2145(j), and record the output of the system. You
may substitute use of a HCl CEMS for conducting the HCl initial and
annual testing with EPA Method 321 at 40 CFR part 63, appendix A. 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 initial and annual
performance test. For units equipped with a hydrogen chloride CEMS, you
are not required to monitor the minimum hydrogen chloride sorbent flow
rate, the minimum scrubber liquor pH, or the monitoring minimum
injection rate.
(h) To demonstrate compliance with the particulate matter emissions
limit, a facility may substitute use of a particulate matter CEMS for
conducting the PM initial and annual performance test. For units
equipped with a particulate matter CEMS, you are not required to use
other CMS for monitoring PM compliance (e.g., bag leak detectors, ESP
secondary power, PM scrubber pressure).
(i) To demonstrate initial and continuous compliance with the
dioxin/furan emissions limit, a facility may substitute use of a
continuous automated sampling system for the dioxin/furan initial and
annual performance tests. 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 initial and continuous compliance with the
mercury emissions limit, a facility may substitute use of a mercury
CEMS or an integrated sorbent trap monitoring system for the mercury
initial and annual performance test. The owner or operator who elects
to continuously measure mercury emissions instead of sampling and
testing using EPA Reference 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 the mercury CEMS or integrated sorbent trap monitoring system
and must comply with performance specification 12A or performance
specification 12B, respectively, and quality assurance procedure 5. For
the purposes of emissions calculations when using an integrated sorbent
trap monitoring system, the mercury concentration determined for each
sampling period must be assigned to each hour during the sampling
period. Waste-burning kilns must install, calibrate, maintain, and
operate a mercury CEMS or an integrated sorbent trap monitoring system
as specified in Sec. 60.2145(j). For units equipped with a mercury
CEMS or an integrated sorbent trap monitoring system, you are not
required to monitor the minimum sorbent flow rate, if activated carbon
sorbent injection is used solely for compliance with the mercury
emission limit.
(k) To demonstrate initial and continuous compliance with the
nitrogen oxides emissions limit, a facility may substitute use of a
CEMS for the nitrogen oxides initial and annual performance test to
demonstrate compliance with the nitrogen oxides emissions limits. For
units equipped with a nitrogen oxides CEMS, you are not required to
monitor the charge rate, secondary chamber temperature, and reagent
flow for selective noncatalytic reduction, if applicable:
[[Page 15868]]
(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; and
(2) Compliance with the emission limit for nitrogen oxides must be
determined based on the 30-day rolling average of the hourly emission
concentrations using CEMS outlet data, as outlined in Sec. 60.2145(u).
(l) To demonstrate initial and continuous compliance with the
sulfur dioxide emissions limit, a facility may substitute use of a CEMS
for the sulfur dioxide initial and 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; and
(2) Compliance with the sulfur dioxide emission limit shall be
determined based on the 30-day rolling average of the hourly arithmetic
average emission concentrations using CEMS outlet data, as outlined in
Sec. 60.2145(u).
(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, an
electrostatic precipitator, particulate matter CEMS, or particulate
matter CPMS 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); and
(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 monitoring with a particulate matter CPMS according to
paragraph (r) of this section, must install, calibrate, maintain, and
operate a PM CEMS and must comply with the requirements specified in
paragraphs (n)(1) through (10) of this section:
(1) The PM CEMS 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. Use Method 5 or Method 5I
of appendix A of this part for the PM CEMS correlation testing;
(2) 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;
(3) 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(t)(4)(i) through
(iv);
(4) The owner or operator of an affected facility must conduct an
initial performance test for particulate matter emissions. If PM CEMS
are elected for demonstrating compliance, and the initial performance
test has not yet been conducted, then initial 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;
(5) Continuous 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;
(6) At a minimum, valid continuous monitoring system hourly
averages must be obtained as specified in Sec. 60.2170(e);
(7) The 1-hour arithmetic averages required under paragraph (n)(5)
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);
(8) All valid CEMS data must be used in calculating average
emission concentrations even if the minimum CEMS data requirements of
paragraph (n)(6) of this section are not met.
(9) The CEMS must be operated according to performance
specification 11 in appendix B of this part; and,
(10) Quarterly and yearly accuracy audits and daily drift, system
optics, and sample volume checks must be performed in accordance with
procedure 2 in appendix F of this part.
(o) To demonstrate initial and continuous compliance with the
carbon monoxide emissions limit, you may substitute use of a CEMS for
the carbon monoxide initial and 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
4A or 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
[[Page 15869]]
installation, evaluation, and operation of the CEMS; and
(2) Compliance with the carbon monoxide emission limit shall 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, as
outlined in Sec. 60.2145(u).
(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/hr 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 (4) of this section:
(1) The oxygen analyzer system must be installed by the initial
performance test date specified in Sec. 60.2140;
(2) You must operate the oxygen trim system within compliance with
paragraph (q)(3) of this section at all times;
(3) You must maintain the oxygen level such that the 30-day rolling
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; and
(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/hr 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 paragraphs
(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; and
(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 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); and
(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;
(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; and
(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
[[Page 15870]]
limits established during the hydrogen chloride performance test.
(t) If you are required to monitor clinker production because you
comply with the production-rate based mercury limit for your waste-
burning kiln, you must:
(1) Determine hourly clinker production by one of two methods:
(i) Install, calibrate, maintain, and operate a permanent weigh
scale system to measure and record weight rates in tons-mass per hour
of the amount of clinker produced. The system of measuring hourly
clinker production must be maintained within 5 percent
accuracy, or
(ii) Install, calibrate, maintain, and operate a permanent weigh
scale system to measure and record weight rates in tons-mass per hour
of the amount of feed to the kiln. The system of measuring feed must be
maintained within 5 percent accuracy. Calculate your hourly
clinker production rate using a kiln-specific feed to clinker ratio
based on reconciled clinker production determined for accounting
purposes and recorded feed rates. Update this ratio monthly. Note that
if this ratio changes at clinker reconciliation, you must use the new
ratio going forward, but you do not have to retroactively change
clinker production rates previously estimated.
(2) Determine the accuracy of the system of measuring hourly
clinker production (or feed mass flow if applicable) before the
effective date and during each quarter of source operation.
(3) Conduct accuracy checks in accordance with the procedures
outlined in your site-specific monitoring plan under Sec. 60.2145(l).
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)), 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; and
(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.
Recordkeeping and Reporting
Sec. 60.2175 What records must I keep?
You must maintain the items (as applicable) as specified in
paragraphs (a), (b), and (e) through (x) of this section for a period

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.
60.2110(c);
(7) If you monitor clinker production in accordance with Sec.
60.2165(t):

time beginning 5 business days prior to the date that the submission is
due, you will be or are precluded from accessing CEDRI or CDX and
submitting a required report within the time prescribed, you may assert
a claim of EPA system outage for failure to timely comply with the
reporting requirement. You must submit notification to the
Administrator in writing as soon as possible following the date you
first knew, or through due diligence should have known, that the event
may cause or caused a delay in reporting. You must provide to the
Administrator a written description identifying the date, time and
length of the outage; a rationale for attributing the delay in
reporting beyond the regulatory deadline to the EPA system outage;
describe the measures taken or to be taken to minimize the delay in
reporting; and identify a date by which you propose to report, or if
you have already met the reporting requirement at the time of the
notification, the date you reported. In any circumstance, the report
must be submitted electronically as soon as possible after the outage
is resolved. The decision to accept the claim of EPA system outage and
allow an extension to the reporting deadline is solely within the
discretion of the Administrator.
(d) If you are required to electronically submit a report through
CEDRI in the EPA's CDX and a force majeure event is about to occur,
occurs, or has occurred or there are lingering effects from such an
event within the period of time beginning 5 business days prior to the
date the submission is due, the owner or operator may assert a claim of
force majeure for failure to timely comply with the reporting
requirement. For the purposes of this section, a force majeure event is
defined as an event that will be or has been caused by circumstances
beyond the control of the affected facility, its contractors, or any
entity controlled by the affected facility that prevents you from
complying with the requirement to submit a report electronically within
the time period prescribed. Examples of such events are acts of nature
(e.g., hurricanes, earthquakes, or floods), acts of war or terrorism,
or equipment failure or safety hazard beyond the control of the
affected facility (e.g., large scale power outage). If you intend to
assert a claim of force majeure, you must submit notification to the
Administrator in writing as soon as possible following the date you
first knew, or through due diligence should have known, that the event
may cause or caused a delay in reporting. You must provide to the
Administrator a written description of the force majeure event and a
rationale for attributing the delay in reporting beyond the regulatory
deadline to the force majeure event; describe the measures taken or to
be taken to minimize the delay in reporting; and identify a date by
which you propose to report, or if you have already met the reporting
requirement at the time of the notification, the date you reported. In
any circumstance, the reporting must occur as soon as possible after
the force majeure event occurs. The decision to accept the claim of
force majeure and allow an extension to the reporting deadline is
solely within the discretion of the Administrator.
Sec. 60.2240 Can reporting dates be changed?
If the Administrator agrees, you may change the semiannual or
annual reporting dates. See Sec. 60.19(c) for procedures to seek
approval to change your reporting date.

the first-ever firing of fuel in a boiler or process heater for the
purpose of supplying useful thermal energy (such as steam or heat) for
heating, cooling or process purposes, or producing electricity, or the
firing of fuel in a boiler or process heater for any purpose after a
shutdown event. Startup ends four hours after when the boiler or
process heater makes useful thermal energy (such as heat or steam) for
heating, cooling, or process purposes, or generates electricity,
whichever is earlier. Shutdown begins when the boiler or process heater
no longer makes useful thermal energy (such as heat or steam) for
heating, cooling, or process purposes and/or generates electricity or
when no fuel is being fed to the boiler or process heater, whichever is
earlier. Shutdown ends when the boiler or process heater no longer
makes useful thermal energy (such as steam or heat) for heating,
cooling, or process purposes and/or generates electricity, and no fuel
is being combusted in the boiler or process heater; and
(3) For waste-burning kilns: CEMS data collected during the periods
of kiln operation that do not include normal operations. Startup means
the time from when a shutdown kiln first begins firing fuel until it
begins producing clinker. Startup begins when a shutdown kiln turns on
the induced draft fan and begins firing fuel in the main burner.
Startup ends when feed is being continuously introduced into the kiln
for at least 120 minutes or when the feed rate exceeds 60 percent of
the kiln design limitation rate, whichever occurs first. Shutdown means
the cessation of kiln operation. Shutdown begins when feed to the kiln
is halted and ends when continuous kiln rotation ceases.

Commercial and industrial solid waste incineration unit (CISWI)
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. While not all CISWIs will include all of the following
components, a CISWI 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 does not include
air pollution control equipment or the stack. The CISWI boundary starts
at the solid waste hopper (if applicable) and extends through two
areas: The combustion unit flue gas system, which ends immediately
after the last combustion chamber or after the waste heat recovery
equipment, if any; and the combustion unit bottom ash system, which
ends at the truck loading station or similar equipment that transfers
the ash to final disposal. The CISWI includes all ash handling systems
connected to the bottom ash handling system.

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.

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
[[Page 15877]]
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.

(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 (not including the cost of land) updated to current costs
(current dollars). To determine what systems are within the boundary of
the CISWI used to calculate these costs, see the definition of CISWI;

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 units (CISWIs) and air curtain incinerators
(ACIs). 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 CISWIs
that meet the criteria in paragraphs (b) through (d) of this section,
you must submit a state plan to U.S. Environmental Protection 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 CISWIs 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 CISWIs 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 CISWIs, including those that have ceased
operation but have not been dismantled;
(2) Inventory of emissions from affected CISWIs in your state;
(3) Compliance schedules for each affected CISWI;
(4) Emission limitations, operator training and qualification
requirements, a waste management plan, and operating limits for
affected CISWIs 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; and
(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 ACI 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 CISWIs 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 CISWIs that commenced construction on or before June 4, 2010 and
incinerator or ACIs 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
CISWIs 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 document in the
Federal Register. If, at a later date, an existing CISWI is found in
your state, the federal plan implementing the emission guidelines
contained in this subpart would automatically apply to that CISWI until
your state plan is approved.
[[Page 15886]]
Sec. 60.2535 What compliance schedule must I include in my state
plan?
(a) For CISWIs in the incinerator subcategory and ACIs that
commenced construction on or before November 30, 1999, your state plan
must include compliance schedules that require CISWIs in the
incinerator subcategory and ACIs 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; and
(2) Three years after the effective date of state plan approval.
(b) For CISWIs in the incinerator subcategory and ACIs 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 CISWIs 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 CISWIs 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; and
(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.
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 CISWIs 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); and
(b) State plans developed to implement this subpart are required to
include two increments of progress for the affected CISWIs. 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 CISWIs.
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; and
(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 that will not be delegated to state, local, or
tribal agencies are specified in paragraphs (a) through (i) of this
section:
(a) Approval of alternatives to the emission limitations in tables
2, 6, 7, 8, and 9 of this subpart and operating limits established
under Sec. 60.2675;
(b) Approval of major alternatives to test methods;
(c) Approval of major alternatives to monitoring;
(d) Approval of major alternatives to recordkeeping and reporting;
(e) The requirements in Sec. 60.2680;
(f) The requirements in Sec. 60.2665(b)(2);
(g) Approval of alternative opacity emission limits in Sec.
60.2670 under Sec. 60.11(e)(6) through (8);
(h) Performance test and data reduction waivers under Sec.
60.8(b)(4) and (5); and
(i) Approval of an alternative to any electronic reporting to the
EPA required by this subpart.
Sec. 60.2545 Does this subpart directly affect CISWI owners and
operators in my state?
(a) No. This subpart does not directly affect CISWI owners and
operators in your state. However, CISWI 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 CISWIs 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 CISWIs 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.

regulatory requirements applicable to CISWIs. 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.
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) of this part.

(6) Monitoring procedures for demonstrating compliance with the
incinerator operating limits;
(7) Reporting and recordkeeping procedures;
(8) The waste management plan required under Sec. Sec. 60.2620
through 60.2630;
(9) Procedures for handling ash; and
(10) A list of the wastes burned during the performance test.
(b) You must establish a program for reviewing the information
listed in paragraph (a) of this section with each incinerator operator:
(1) The initial review of the information listed in paragraph (a)
of this section must be conducted by the later of the three dates
specified in paragraphs (b)(1)(i) through (iii) of this section:
(i) The final compliance date (Increment 2);
(ii) Six months after CISWI startup; and
(iii) Six months after being assigned to operate the CISWI.
(2) Subsequent annual reviews of the information listed in
paragraph (a) of this section must be conducted no later than 12 months
following the previous review.
(c) You must also maintain the information specified in paragraphs
(c)(1) through (3) of this section:
(1) Records showing the names of CISWI operators who have completed
review of the information in Sec. 60.2660(a) as required by Sec.
60.2660(b), including the date of the initial review and all subsequent
annual reviews;
(2) Records showing the names of the CISWI operators who have
completed the operator training requirements under Sec. 60.2635, met
the criteria for qualification under Sec. 60.2645, and maintained or
renewed their qualification under Sec. 60.2650 or Sec. 60.2655.
Records must include documentation of training, the dates of the
initial refresher training, and the dates of their qualification and
all subsequent renewals of such qualifications; and
(3) For each qualified operator, the phone and/or pager number at
which they can be reached during operating hours.
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 may be operated by other plant
personnel familiar with the operation of the CISWI 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 qualified
operators were not accessible and include this deviation in 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; and
(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. 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 is
disapproved, the CISWI 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:
[[Page 15890]]
(i) A qualified operator is accessible as required under Sec.
60.2635(a); and
(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,
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) of this section, 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; and
(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.
(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 hydrogen chloride (HCl) emission limitation.
(b) You must meet the operating limits established on the date that
the performance test report is submitted to the EPA's Central Data
Exchange or postmarked, per the requirements of Sec. 60.2795(b).
(c) If you use a fabric filter to comply with the emission
limitations and you do not use a particulate matter (PM) continuous
parameter monitoring system (CPMS) for monitoring PM compliance, 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 and you do not use a PM CPMS for monitoring PM
compliance, 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), 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 either a particulate matter CEMS or a particulate
matter CPMS, 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):
[[Page 15891]]
(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; and
(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
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; and
(D) If none of the steps in paragraphs (i)(2)(i)(A) through (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] TR16AP19.013
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] TR16AP19.014
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] TR16AP19.015
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,
[[Page 15892]]
z = your instrument zero in milliamps or digital equivalent,
determined from paragraph (i)(2)(i) of this section, and
R = the relative mg/dscm per milliamp, or per 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] TR16AP19.016
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.
Sec. 60.2680 What if I do not use a wet scrubber, fabric filter,
activated carbon injection, selective noncatalytic reduction, an
electrostatic precipitator, or a dry scrubber to comply with the
emission limitations?
(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
petition the EPA Administrator for specific operating limits to be
established during the initial performance test and continuously
monitored thereafter. You must submit the petition at least sixty days
before the performance test is scheduled to begin. Your petition must
include the five items listed in paragraphs (a)(1) through (5) of this
section:
(1) Identification of the specific parameters you propose to use as
additional operating limits;
(2) A discussion of the relationship between these parameters and
emissions of regulated pollutants, identifying how emissions of
regulated pollutants change with changes in these parameters and how
limits on these parameters will serve to limit emissions of regulated
pollutants;
(3) A discussion of how you will establish the upper and/or lower
values for these parameters which will establish the operating limits
on these parameters;
(4) A discussion identifying the methods you will use to measure
and the instruments you will use to monitor these parameters, as well
as the relative accuracy and precision of these methods and
instruments; and
(5) A discussion identifying the frequency and methods for
recalibrating the instruments you will use for monitoring these
parameters.
(b) [Reserved]
Model Rule--Performance Testing
Sec. 60.2690 How do I conduct the initial and annual performance
test?
(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
test is representative of the waste burned under normal operating
conditions by maintaining a log of the quantity of waste burned (as
required in Sec. 60.2740(b)(1)) and the types of waste burned during
the performance test.
(c) All performance tests must be conducted using the minimum run
duration specified in tables 2 and 6 through 9 of this subpart.
(d) Method 1 of appendix A of this part must be used to select the
sampling location and number of traverse points.
(e) Method 3A or 3B of appendix A of this part must be used for gas
composition analysis, including measurement of oxygen concentration.
Method 3A or 3B of appendix A of this part must be used simultaneously
with each method (except when using Method 9 and Method 22).
(f) All pollutant concentrations, except for opacity, must be
adjusted to 7 percent oxygen using equation 5 of this section:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR16AP19.017
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);
[[Page 15893]]
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
section:
(1) Measure the concentration of each dioxin/furan tetra- through
octa-isomer emitted using EPA Method 23 at 40 CFR part 60, appendix A;
(2) Quantify isomers meeting identification criteria 2, 3, 4, and 5
in Section 5.3.2.5 of Method 23, regardless of whether the isomers meet
identification criteria 1 and 7. You must quantify the isomers per
Section 9.0 of Method 23. [Note: You may reanalyze the sample aliquot
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 4 of this subpart; and
(4) Sum the products calculated in accordance with paragraph (g)(3)
of this section to obtain the total concentration of dioxins/furans
emitted in terms of toxic equivalency.
(h) Method 22 at 40 CFR part 60, appendix A-7 must be used to
determine compliance with the fugitive ash emission limit in table 2 of
this subpart or tables 6 through 9 of this subpart.
(i) If you have an applicable opacity operating limit, you must
determine compliance with the opacity limit using Method 9 at 40 CFR
part 60, appendix A-4, based on three 1-hour blocks consisting of ten
6-minute average opacity values, unless you are required to install a
continuous opacity monitoring system, consistent with Sec. 60.2710 and
Sec. 60.2730.
(j) You must determine dioxins/furans total mass basis by following
the procedures in paragraphs (j)(1) through (3) of this section:

octa-chlorinated isomer emitted using EPA Method 23 at 40 CFR part 60,
appendix A-7;
(2) Quantify isomers meeting identification criteria 2, 3, 4, and 5
in Section 5.3.2.5 of Method 23, regardless of whether the isomers meet
identification criteria 1 and 7. You must quantify the isomers per
Section 9.0 of Method 23. (Note: You may reanalyze the sample aliquot
or split to reduce the number of isomers not meeting identification
criteria 1 or 7 of Section 5.3.2.5.); and
(3) Sum the quantities measured in accordance with paragraphs
(j)(1) and (2) of this section to obtain the total concentration of
dioxins/furans emitted in terms of total mass basis.
Sec. 60.2695 How are the performance test data used?
You use results of performance tests to demonstrate compliance with
the emission limitations in table 2 of this subpart or tables 6 through
9 of this subpart.
Model Rule--Initial Compliance Requirements
Sec. 60.2700 How do I demonstrate initial compliance with the
amended emission limitations and establish the operating limits?
(a) You must conduct a performance test, as required under
Sec. Sec. 60.2670 and 60.2690, to determine compliance with the
emission limitations in table 2 of this subpart and tables 6 through 9
of this subpart, to establish compliance with any opacity operating
limits in Sec. 60.2675, to establish the kiln-specific emission limit
in Sec. 60.2710(y), as applicable, and to establish operating limits
using the procedures in Sec. 60.2675 or Sec. 60.2680. The performance
test must be conducted using the test methods listed in table 2 of this
subpart and tables 6 through 9 of this subpart and the procedures in
Sec. 60.2690. The use of the bypass stack during a performance test
shall invalidate the performance test.
(b) As an alternative to conducting a performance test, as required
under Sec. Sec. 60.2690 and 60.2670, you may use a 30-day rolling
average of the 1-hour arithmetic average CEMS data, including CEMS data
during startup and shutdown as defined in this subpart, to determine
compliance with the emission limitations in Table 1 of this subpart or
Tables 5 through 8 of this subpart. You must conduct a performance
evaluation of each continuous monitoring system within 180 days of
installation of the monitoring system. The initial performance
evaluation must be conducted prior to collecting CEMS data that will be
used for the initial compliance demonstration.
Sec. 60.2705 By what date must I conduct the initial performance
test?
(a) The initial performance test must be conducted no later than
180 days after your final compliance date. Your final compliance date
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
the combustion chamber, you must conduct a performance test within 60
days from the date you reintroduce solid waste.
Sec. 60.2706 By what date must I conduct the initial air pollution
control device inspection?
(a) The initial air pollution control device inspection must be
conducted within 60 days after installation of the control device and
the associated CISWI reaches the charge rate at which it will operate,
but no later than 180 days after the final compliance date for meeting
the amended emission limitations.
(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.
Model Rule--Continuous Compliance Requirements
Sec. 60.2710 How do I demonstrate continuous compliance with the
amended emission limitations and the operating limits?
(a) General compliance with standards, considering some units may
be able to switch between solid waste and non-waste fuel combustion, is
specified in paragraph (a)(1) through (6) of this section.
(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, 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
[[Page 15894]]
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, 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 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 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. 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 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 CPMS 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, as described in
Sec. 60.2730(o).
(h) Coal and liquid/gas energy recovery units with annual average
heat input rates greater than 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.
60.2730(n) instead of the CPMS 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/hr but less than 250 MMBtu/hr that do
not use a wet scrubber, fabric filter with bag leak detection system,
an electrostatic precipitator, particulate matter CEMS, or particulate
matter CPMS, you must install, operate, certify and maintain a
continuous opacity monitoring system (COMS) according to the procedures
in Sec. 60.2730(m).
(j) For waste-burning kilns, you must conduct an annual performance
test for the pollutants (except mercury and particulate matter, and
hydrogen chloride if no acid gas wet scrubber or dry scrubber is used)
listed in table 8 of this subpart, unless you choose to demonstrate
initial and continuous compliance using CEMS, as allowed in
[[Page 15895]]
paragraph (u) of this section. If you do not use an acid gas wet
scrubber or dry scrubber, you must determine compliance with the
hydrogen chloride emissions limit using a HCl CEMS according to the
requirements in paragraph (j)(1) of this section. You must determine
compliance with the mercury emissions limit using a mercury CEMS or an
integrated sorbent trap monitoring system according to paragraph (j)(2)
of this section. You must determine compliance with particulate matter
using CPMS.
(1) If you monitor compliance with the HCl emissions limit by
operating an HCl CEMS, you must do so in accordance with Performance
Specification 15 (PS 15) of appendix B to 40 CFR part 60, or, PS 18 of
appendix B to 40 CFR part 60. You must operate, maintain, and quality
assure a HCl CEMS installed and certified under PS 15 according to the
quality assurance requirements in Procedure 1 of appendix F to 40 CFR
part 60 except that the Relative Accuracy Test Audit requirements of
Procedure 1 must be replaced with the validation requirements and
criteria of sections 11.1.1 and 12.0 of PS 15. You must operate,
maintain and quality assure a HCl CEMS installed and certified under PS
18 according to the quality assurance requirements in Procedure 6 of
appendix F to 40 CFR part 60. For any performance specification that
you use, you must use Method 321 of appendix A to 40 CFR part 63 as the
reference test method for conducting relative accuracy testing. The
span value and calibration requirements in paragraphs (j)(1)(i) and
(ii) of this section apply to all HCl CEMS used under this subpart:
(i) You must use a measurement span value for any HCl CEMS of 0-10
ppmvw unless the monitor is installed on a kiln without an inline raw
mill. Kilns without an inline raw mill may use a higher span value
sufficient to quantify all expected emissions concentrations. The HCl
CEMS data recorder output range must include the full range of expected
HCl concentration values which would include those expected during
``mill off'' conditions. The corresponding data recorder range shall be
documented in the site-specific monitoring plan and associated records;
and
(ii) In order to quality assure data measured above the span value,
you must use one of the three options in paragraphs (j)(1)(ii)(A)
through (C) of this section:
(A) Include a second span that encompasses the HCl emission
concentrations expected to be encountered during ``mill off''
conditions. This second span may be rounded to a multiple of 5 ppm of
total HCl. The requirements of the appropriate HCl monitor performance
specification shall be followed for this second span with the exception
that a RATA with the mill off is not required;
(B) Quality assure any data above the span value by proving
instrument linearity beyond the span value established in paragraph
(j)(1)(i) of this section using the following procedure. Conduct a
weekly ``above span linearity'' calibration challenge of the monitoring
system using a reference gas with a certified value greater than your
highest expected hourly concentration or greater than 75% of the
highest measured hourly concentration. The ``above span'' reference gas
must meet the requirements of the applicable performance specification
and must be introduced to the measurement system at the probe. Record
and report the results of this procedure as you would for a daily
calibration. The ``above span linearity'' challenge is successful if
the value measured by the HCl CEMS falls within 10 percent of the
certified value of the reference gas. If the value measured by the HCl
CEMS during the above span linearity challenge exceeds 10 percent of
the certified value of the reference gas, the monitoring system must be
evaluated and repaired and a new ``above span linearity'' challenge met
before returning the HCl CEMS to service, or data above span from the
HCl CEMS must be subject to the quality assurance procedures
established in (j)(1)(ii)(D) of this section. In this manner values
measured by the HCl CEMS during the above span linearity challenge
exceeding +/-20 percent of the certified value of the reference gas
must be normalized using equation 6;
(C) Quality assure any data above the span value established in
paragraph (j)(1)(i) of this section using the following procedure. Any
time two consecutive one-hour average measured concentration of HCl
exceeds the span value you must, within 24 hours before or after,
introduce a higher, ``above span'' HCl reference gas standard to the
HCl CEMS. The ``above span'' reference gas must meet the requirements
of the applicable performance specification and target a concentration
level between 50 and 150 percent of the highest expected hourly
concentration measured during the period of measurements above span,
and must be introduced at the probe. While this target represents a
desired concentration range that is not always achievable in practice,
it is expected that the intent to meet this range is demonstrated by
the value of the reference gas. Expected values may include above span
calibrations done before or after the above-span measurement period.
Record and report the results of this procedure as you would for a
daily calibration. The ``above span'' calibration is successful if the
value measured by the HCl CEMS is within 20 percent of the certified
value of the reference gas. If the value measured by the HCl CEMS is
not within 20 percent of the certified value of the reference gas, then
you must normalize the stack gas values measured above span as
described in paragraph (j)(1)(ii)(D) of this section. If the ``above
span'' calibration is conducted during the period when measured
emissions are above span and there is a failure to collect the one data
point in an hour due to the calibration duration, then you must
determine the emissions average for that missed hour as the average of
hourly averages for the hour preceding the missed hour and the hour
following the missed hour. In an hour where an ``above span''
calibration is being conducted and one or more data points are
collected, the emissions average is represented by the average of all
valid data points collected in that hour; and
(D) In the event that the ``above span'' calibration is not
successful (i.e., the HCl CEMS measured value is not within 20 percent
of the certified value of the reference gas), then you must normalize
the one-hour average stack gas values measured above the span during
the 24-hour period preceding or following the ``above span''
calibration for reporting based on the HCl CEMS response to the
reference gas as shown in equation 6:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR16AP19.018
Only one ``above span'' calibration is needed per 24-hour period.
(2) Compliance with the mercury emissions limit must be determined
using a mercury CEMS or integrated sorbent trap monitoring system
according to the following requirements:
[[Page 15896]]
(i) You must operate a mercury CEMS in accordance with performance
specification 12A at 40 CFR part 60, appendix B or an integrated
sorbent trap monitoring system in accordance with performance
specification 12B at 40 CFR part 60, appendix B; these monitoring
systems must be quality assured according to procedure 5 of 40 CFR 60,
appendix F. For the purposes of emissions calculations when using an
integrated sorbent trap monitoring system, the mercury concentration
determined for each sampling period must be assigned to each hour
during the sampling period. If you choose to comply with the
production-rate based mercury limit for your waste-burning kiln, you
must also monitor hourly clinker production and determine the hourly
mercury emissions rate in pounds per million ton of clinker produced.
You must demonstrate compliance with the mercury emissions limit using
a 30-day rolling average of these 1-hour mercury concentrations or mass
emissions rates, 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;
(ii) Owners or operators using a mercury CEMS or integrated sorbent
trap monitoring system to determine mass emission rate 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 specification 6

accuracy test of the continuous emission rate monitoring system
according to section 8.2 of performance specification 6; and
(iii) The owner or operator of a waste-burning kiln must
demonstrate initial compliance by operating a mercury CEMS or
integrated sorbent trap monitoring system 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;
and
(2) Develop a site-specific monitoring plan according to the
requirements in paragraph (l) of this section. This requirement also
applies to you if you petition the EPA Administrator for alternative
monitoring parameters under Sec. 60.13(i).
(l) For each CMS required in this section, you must develop and
submit to the EPA Administrator for approval a site-specific monitoring

system in accordance with your monitoring plan at the time of each
performance test but no less frequently than annually; and
(6) If at any time the measured pressure exceeds the manufacturer's

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
system, you must meet the requirements in paragraphs (l) and (o)(1)
through (4) of this section:

calibrate, maintain, and continuously operate a bag leak detection
system as specified in paragraphs (l) and (r)(1) through (5) of this
section:
(1) Install a bag leak detection sensor(s) in a position(s) that
will be representative of the relative or absolute particulate matter
loadings for each exhaust stack, roof vent, or compartment (e.g., for a
positive pressure fabric filter) of the fabric filter;

where it is observed readily by plant operating personnel.
(s) For facilities using a CEMS to demonstrate initial and
continuous compliance with the sulfur dioxide emission limit,
compliance with the sulfur dioxide emission limit may be demonstrated
by using the CEMS specified in Sec. 60.2730(l) to measure sulfur
dioxide. The sulfur dioxide CEMS must follow the procedures and methods
specified in paragraph (s) of this section. For sources 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:
(i) For sulfur dioxide, EPA Reference Method 6 or 6C, or as an
alternative ANSI/ASME PTC 19.10-1981 (incorporated by reference, see
Sec. 60.17) must be used; and
(ii) For oxygen (or carbon dioxide), EPA Reference Method 3A or 3B,
or as an alternative ANSI/ASME PTC 19.10-1981 (incorporated by

(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 subpart.
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

reference, see Sec. 60.17), as applicable, must be used.
(2) The span value of the CEMS must be 125 percent of the maximum
estimated hourly potential nitrogen oxide emissions of 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 (iv)
of this section. This relationship may be reestablished 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, 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;
(iii) Each sample must represent a 1-hour average; and
(iv) A minimum of 3 runs must be performed.
(u) For facilities using a CEMS or an integrated sorbent trap
monitoring system for mercury to demonstrate initial and continuous
compliance with any of the emission limits of this subpart, you must
complete the following:
(1) Demonstrate compliance with the appropriate emission limit(s)
using a 30-day rolling average of 1-hour arithmetic average emission
concentrations, including CEMS or an integrated
[[Page 15898]]
sorbent trap monitoring system 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 appendix A-7 of this part. The 1-
hour arithmetic averages for CEMS must be calculated using the data
points required under Sec. 60.13(e)(2). Except for CEMS or an
integrated sorbent trap monitoring system data during startup and
shutdown, the 1-hour arithmetic averages used to calculate the 30-day
rolling average emission concentrations must be corrected to 7 percent
oxygen (dry basis). Integrated sorbent trap monitoring system or 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; and
(2) Operate all CEMS and integrated sorbent trap monitoring systems
in accordance with the applicable procedures under appendices B and F
of this part.
(v) Use of the bypass stack at any time is an emissions standards
deviation for PM, HCl, lead, cadmium, mercury, nitrogen oxides, sulfur
dioxide, and dioxin/furans.
(w) For energy recovery units with a design heat input capacity of
100 MMBtu/hr or greater that do not use a carbon monoxide CEMS, you
must install, operate, and maintain an oxygen analyzer system as
defined in Sec. 60.2875 according to the procedures in paragraphs
(w)(1) through (4) of this section:
(1) The oxygen analyzer system must be installed by the initial
performance test date specified in Sec. 60.2675;
(2) You must operate the oxygen trim system within compliance with
paragraph (w)(3) of this section at all times;
(3) You must maintain the oxygen level such that the 30-day rolling
average that is established as the operating limit for oxygen is not
below the lowest hourly average oxygen concentration measured during
the most recent CO performance test; and
(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.
(x) For energy recovery units with annual average heat input rates
greater than or equal to 250 MMBtu/hr 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 (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
(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;
(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; and
(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
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 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 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;
(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.
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 paragraph (x) of
this section; and
(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.
[[Page 15899]]
(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 7:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR16AP19.019
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.
(3) For purposes of determining the combined emissions from kilns
equipped with an alkali bypass or that exhaust kiln gases to a coal
mill that exhausts through a separate stack, instead of installing a
CEMS or PM CPMS on the alkali bypass stack or in-line coal mill stack,
the results of the initial and subsequent performance test can be used
to demonstrate compliance with the relevant emissions limit. A
performance test must be conducted on an annual basis (between 11 and
13 calendar months following the previous performance test).
Sec. 60.2715 By what date must I conduct the annual performance
test?
You must conduct annual performance tests between 11 and 13
calendar months of the previous performance test.
Sec. 60.2716 By what date must I conduct the annual air pollution
control device inspection?
On an annual basis (no more than 12 months following the previous
annual air pollution control device inspection), you must complete the
air pollution control device inspection as described in Sec. 60.2706.
Sec. 60.2720 May I conduct performance testing less often?
(a) You must conduct annual performance tests according to the
schedule specified in Sec. 60.2715, with the following exceptions:
(1) You may conduct a repeat performance test at any time to
establish new values for the operating limits, as specified in Sec.
60.2725. New operating limits become effective on the date that the
performance test report is submitted to the EPA's Central Data Exchange
or postmarked, per the requirements of Sec. 60.2795(b). The
Administrator may request a repeat performance test at any time;
(2) You must repeat the performance test within 60 days of a
process change, as defined in Sec. 60.2875; and
(3) You can conduct performance tests less often if you meet the
following conditions: Your performance tests for the pollutant for at
least 2 consecutive performance tests demonstrates that the emission
level for the pollutant is no greater than the emission level specified
in paragraph (a)(3)(i) or (ii) of this section, as applicable; there
are no changes in the operation of the affected source or air pollution
control equipment that could increase emissions; 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. In this case, you
do not have to conduct a performance test for that pollutant for the
next 2 years. You must conduct a performance test for the pollutant no
more than 37 months following the previous performance test for the
pollutant. If the emission level for your CISWI continues to meet the
emission level specified in paragraph (a)(3)(i) or (ii) of this
section, as applicable, you may choose to conduct performance tests for
the pollutant every third year, as long as there are no changes in the
operation of the affected source or air pollution control equipment
that could increase emissions. Each such performance test must be
conducted no more than 37 months after the previous performance test.
(i) For particulate matter, hydrogen chloride, mercury, carbon
monoxide, nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, cadmium, lead, and dioxins/
furans, the emission level equal to 75 percent of the applicable
emission limit in table 2 or tables 6 through 9 of this subpart, as
applicable; and
(ii) For fugitive emissions, visible emissions (of combustion ash
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 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
to demonstrate compliance.
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 and you do not use a PM CPMS or PM CEMS for monitoring PM
compliance,
[[Page 15900]]
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; and
(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) or the minimum reagent flow
rate measured as 3-hour block averages at all times; and
(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 and you do not use a PM CPMS for
monitoring PM compliance, 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, you must install, calibrate, maintain, and operate a CEMS for
monitoring hydrogen chloride emissions discharged to the atmosphere, as
specified in Sec. 60.2710(j), and record the output of the system. You
may substitute use of a HCl CEMS for conducting the HCl initial and
annual testing with EPA Method 321 at 40 CFR part 63, appendix A. 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 initial and annual
performance test. For units equipped with a hydrogen chloride CEMS, you
are not required to monitor 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 either a
particulate matter CEMS or a particulate matter CPMS for conducting the
particulate matter annual performance test. For units equipped with a
particulate matter CEMS, you are not required to use other CMS
monitoring for PM compliance (e.g., bag leak detectors, ESP secondary
power, PM scrubber pressure). A facility may also substitute use of a
particulate matter CEMS for conducting the PM initial performance test.
(i) To demonstrate initial and continuous compliance with the
dioxin/furan emissions limit, a facility may substitute use of a
continuous automated sampling system for the dioxin/furan initial and
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 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 initial and continuous compliance with the
mercury emissions limit, a facility may substitute use of a mercury
CEMS or and integrated sorbent trap monitoring system for the mercury
initial and annual performance test. The owner or operator who elects
to continuously measure 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 the mercury
CEMS or integrated sorbent trap monitoringsystem and must comply with
performance specification 12A or performance specification 12B,
respectively, and quality assurance procedure 5. For the purposes of
emissions calculations when using an integrated sorbent trap monitoring
system, the mercury concentration determined for each sampling period
must be assigned to each hour during the sampling period. For units
equipped with a mercury CEMS or an integrated sorbent trap monitoring
system, you are not required to monitor the minimum sorbent flow rate,
if activated carbon sorbent injection is used solely for compliance
with the mercury emission limit. Waste-burning kilns must install,
calibrate, maintain, and operate a mercury CEMS or an integrated
sorbent trap monitoring system as specified in Sec. 60.2710(j).
(k) To demonstrate initial and continuous compliance with the
nitrogen oxides emissions limit, a
[[Page 15901]]
facility may substitute use of a CEMS for the nitrogen oxides initial
and annual performance test to demonstrate compliance with the nitrogen
oxides emissions limits. For units equipped with a nitrogen xides CEMS,
you are not required to monitor 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; and
(2) Compliance with the emission limit for nitrogen oxides must be
determined based on the 30-day rolling average of the hourly emission
concentrations using CEMS outlet data, as outlined in Sec. 60.2710(u).
(l) To demonstrate initial and continuous compliance with the
sulfur dioxide emissions limit, a facility may substitute use of a CEMS
for the sulfur dioxide initial and 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 Sec.
60.13 must be followed for installation, evaluation and operation of
the CEMS; and
(2) Compliance with the sulfur dioxide emission limit shall be
determined based on the 30-day rolling average of the hourly arithmetic
average emission concentrations using CEMS outlet data, as outlined in
Sec. 60.2710(u).
(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, an
electrostatic precipitator, particulate matter CEMS, or particulate
matter CPMS, 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
according to performance specification 1 at 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); and
(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 monitoring with a particulate matter CPMS according to
paragraph (r) of this section, must install, calibrate, maintain and
operate a PM CEMS and must comply with the requirements specified in
paragraphs (n)(1) through (10) of this section:
(1) The PM CEMS 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;
(2) The initial performance evaluation must be completed no later
than 180 days after the final compliance date for 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;
(3) 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(t)(4)(i) through
(iv);
(4) The owner or operator of an affected facility must conduct an
initial performance test for particulate matter emissions. If PM CEMS
are elected for demonstrating compliance, and the initial performance
test has not yet been conducted, then initial 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;
(5) Continuous 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.
(6) At a minimum, valid continuous monitoring system hourly
averages must be obtained as specified Sec. 60.2735;
(7) The 1-hour arithmetic averages required under paragraph (n)(5)
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);
(8) All valid CEMS data must be used in calculating average
emission concentrations even if the minimum CEMS data requirements of
paragraph (n)(6) of this section are not met;
(9) The CEMS must be operated according to performance
specification 11 in appendix B of this part; and,
(10) Quarterly and yearly accuracy audits and daily drift, system
optics, and sample volume checks must be performed in accordance with
procedure 2 in appendix F of this part.
(o) To demonstrate initial and continuous compliance with the
carbon monoxide emissions limit, a facility
[[Page 15902]]
may substitute use of a CEMS for the carbon monoxide initial and 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
4A or 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; and
(2) Compliance with the carbon monoxide emission limit shall 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, as
outlined in Sec. 60.2710(u).
(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/hr 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:
(1) The oxygen analyzer system must be installed by the initial
performance test date specified in Sec. 60.2675;
(2) You must operate the oxygen trim system within compliance with
paragraph (q)(3) of this section at all times;
(3) You must maintain the oxygen level such that the 30-day rolling
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; and
(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/hr 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;
(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; and
(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
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 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 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); and
(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;
(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; and
(iv) PM CPMS deviations leading to more than four required
performance
[[Page 15903]]
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.
(t) If you are required to monitor clinker production because you
comply with the production-rate based mercury limit for your waste-
burning kiln, you must:
(1) Determine hourly clinker production by one of two methods:
(i) Install, calibrate, maintain, and operate a permanent weigh
scale system to measure and record weight rates in tons-mass per hour
of the amount of clinker produced. The system of measuring hourly
clinker production must be maintained within 5 percent
accuracy, or
(ii) Install, calibrate, maintain, and operate a permanent weigh
scale system to measure and record weight rates in tons-mass per hour
of the amount of feed to the kiln. The system of measuring feed must be
maintained within 5 percent accuracy. Calculate your hourly
clinker production rate using a kiln-specific feed to clinker ratio
based on reconciled clinker production determined for accounting
purposes and recorded feed rates. Update this ratio monthly. Note that
if this ratio changes at clinker reconciliation, you must use the new
ratio going forward, but you do not have to retroactively change
clinker production rates previously estimated.
(2) Determine the accuracy of the system of measuring hourly
clinker production (or feed mass flow if applicable) before the final
compliance date of this rule and during each quarter of source
operation.
(3) Conduct accuracy checks in accordance with the procedures
outlined in your site-specific monitoring plan under Sec. 60.2710(l).
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, 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.

outage of either the EPA's CEDRI or CDX systems within the period of
time beginning 5 business days prior to the date that the submission is
due, you will be or are precluded from accessing CEDRI or CDX and
submitting a required report within the time prescribed, you may assert
a claim of EPA system outage for failure to timely comply with the
reporting requirement. You must submit notification to the
Administrator in writing as soon as possible following the date you
first knew, or through due diligence should have known, that the event
may cause or caused a delay in reporting. You must provide to the
Administrator a written description identifying the date, time and
length of the outage; a rationale for attributing the delay in
reporting beyond the regulatory deadline to the EPA system outage;
describe the measures taken or to be taken to minimize the delay in
reporting; and identify a date by which you propose to report, or if
you have already met the reporting requirement at the time of the
notification, the date you reported. In any circumstance, the report
must be submitted electronically as soon as possible after the outage
is resolved. The decision to accept the claim of EPA system outage and
allow an extension to the reporting deadline is solely within the
discretion of the Administrator.
(d) If you are required to electronically submit a report through
CEDRI in the EPA's CDX and a force majeure event is about to occur,
occurs, or has occurred or there are lingering effects from such an
event within the period of time beginning 5 business days prior to the
date the submission is due, the owner or operator may assert a claim of
force majeure for failure to timely comply with the reporting
requirement. For the purposes of this section, a force majeure event is
defined as an event that will be or has been caused by circumstances
beyond the control of the affected facility, its contractors, or any
entity controlled by the affected facility that prevents you from
complying with the requirement to submit a report electronically within
the time period prescribed. Examples of such events are acts of nature
(e.g., hurricanes, earthquakes, or floods), acts of war or terrorism,
or equipment failure or safety hazard beyond the control of the
affected facility (e.g., large scale power outage). If you intend to
assert a claim of force majeure, you must submit notification to the
Administrator in writing as soon as possible following the date you
first knew, or through due diligence should have known, that the event
may cause or caused a delay in reporting. You must provide to the
Administrator a written description of the force majeure event and a
rationale for attributing the delay in reporting beyond the regulatory
deadline to the force majeure event; describe the measures taken or to
be taken to minimize the delay in reporting; and identify a date by
which you propose to report, or if you have already met the reporting
requirement at the time of the notification, the date you reported. In
any circumstance, the reporting must occur as soon as possible after
the force majeure event occurs. The decision to accept the claim of
force majeure and allow an extension to the reporting deadline is
solely within the discretion of the Administrator.
Sec. 60.2800 Can reporting dates be changed?
If the Administrator agrees, you may change the semiannual or
annual reporting dates. See Sec. 60.19(c) for procedures to seek

Model Rule--Definitions
Sec. 60.2875 What definitions must I know?
Terms used but not defined in this subpart are defined in the Clean
Air Act and subparts A and B of this part.
30-day rolling average means the arithmetic mean of the previous
720 hours of valid operating data. Valid data excludes periods when
this unit is not operating. The 720 hours should be consecutive, but
not necessarily continuous if operations are intermittent.

Protection Agency or his/her authorized representative or Administrator
of a State Air Pollution Control Agency.
Agricultural waste means vegetative agricultural materials such as
nut and grain hulls and chaff (e.g., almond, walnut, peanut, rice, and
wheat), bagasse, orchard prunings, corn stalks, coffee bean hulls and
grounds, and other vegetative waste materials generated as a result of
agricultural operations.
Air curtain incinerator (ACI) means an incinerator that operates by
forcefully projecting a curtain of air across an open chamber or pit in
which combustion occurs. Incinerators of this type can be constructed
above or below ground and with or without refractory walls and floor.
Air curtain incinerators are not to be confused with conventional
combustion devices with enclosed fireboxes and controlled air
technology such as mass burn, modular, and fluidized bed combustors.

the hours of operation for the 12 months preceding the compliance
demonstration.
Bag leak detection system means an instrument that is capable of
monitoring particulate matter loadings in the exhaust of a fabric
filter (i.e., baghouse) in order to detect bag failures. A bag leak
detection system includes, but is not limited to, an instrument that
operates on triboelectric, light scattering, light transmittance, or
other principle to monitor relative particulate matter loadings.
Burn-off oven means any rack reclamation unit, part reclamation
unit, or drum reclamation unit. A burn-off oven is not an incinerator,
waste-burning kiln, an energy recovery unit or a small, remote
incinerator under this subpart.

CEMS data during startup and shutdown means the following:
(1) For incinerators and small remote incinerators: CEMS data
collected during the first hours of operation of a CISWI startup from a
cold start until waste is fed into the unit and the hours
[[Page 15909]]
of operation following the cessation of waste material being fed to the
CISWI 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 energy recovery units: CEMS data collected during the
startup or shutdown periods of operation. Startup begins with either
the first-ever firing of fuel in a boiler or process heater for the
purpose of supplying useful thermal energy (such as steam or heat) for
heating, cooling or process purposes, or producing electricity, or the
firing of fuel in a boiler or process heater for any purpose after a
shutdown event. Startup ends four hours after when the boiler or
process heater makes useful thermal energy (such as heat or steam) for
heating, cooling, or process purposes, or generates electricity,
whichever is earlier. Shutdown begins when the boiler or process heater
no longer makes useful thermal energy (such as heat or steam) for
heating, cooling, or process purposes and/or generates electricity or
when no fuel is being fed to the boiler or process heater, whichever is
earlier. Shutdown ends when the boiler or process heater no longer
makes useful thermal energy (such as steam or heat) for heating,
cooling, or process purposes and/or generates electricity, and no fuel
is being combusted in the boiler or process heater; and
(3) For waste-burning kilns: CEMS data collected during the periods
of kiln operation that do not include normal operations. Startup means
the time from when a shutdown kiln first begins firing fuel until it
begins producing clinker. Startup begins when a shutdown kiln turns on
the induced draft fan and begins firing fuel in the main burner.
Startup ends when feed is being continuously introduced into the kiln
for at least 120 minutes or when the feed rate exceeds 60 percent of
the kiln design limitation rate, whichever occurs first. Shutdown means
the cessation of kiln operation. Shutdown begins when feed to the kiln
is halted and ends when continuous kiln rotation ceases.
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,

Commercial and industrial solid waste incineration unit (CISWI)
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. 60.2740(u), the operating unit is
a CISWI. While not all CISWIs will include all of the following
components, a CISWI 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 does not include
air pollution control equipment or the stack. The CISWI boundary starts
at the solid waste hopper (if applicable) and extends through two
areas: The combustion unit flue gas system, which ends immediately
after the last combustion chamber or after the waste heat recovery
equipment, if any; and the combustion unit bottom ash system, which
ends at the truck loading station or similar equipment that transfers
the ash to final disposal. The CISWI includes all ash handling systems
connected to the bottom ash handling system.

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

(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.

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

(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 (not including the cost of land) updated to current costs
(current dollars). To determine what systems are within the boundary of
the CISWI used to calculate these costs, see the definition of CISWI;
and
(2) Any physical change in the CISWI or change in the method of
operating it that increases the amount of any air pollutant emitted for

CISWI which may increase the emission rate of any air pollutant to
which a standard applies;
(2) An operational change to the CISWI 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 (e.g., replacing an electrostatic precipitator with a fabric
filter); and
(4) An operational change to the air pollution control devices used
to comply with the emission limits for the affected CISWI (e.g., change
in the sorbent injection rate used for activated carbon injection).

racks used to hold small items for application of a coating. The unit
burns the coating overspray off the rack so the rack can be reused.
Raw mill means a ball or tube mill, vertical roller mill or other
size reduction equipment, that is not part of an in-line kiln/raw mill,
used to grind feed to the appropriate size. Moisture may be added or
removed from the feed during the grinding operation. If the raw mill is
used to remove moisture from feed materials, it is also, by definition,
a raw material dryer. The raw mill also includes the air separator
associated with the raw mill.
Reconstruction means rebuilding a CISWI and meeting two criteria:
(1) The reconstruction begins on or after August 7, 2013; and
