Title 401 - ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENT CABINET - DEPARTMENT FOR ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Chapter 61 - Existing Source Standards
Section 401 KAR 61:020 - Existing process operations
Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 9, March 1, 2024
RELATES TO: KRS 224.20-100, 224.20-110, 224.20-120
NECESSITY, FUNCTION, AND CONFORMITY: KRS 224.10-100 requires the Environmental and Public Protection Cabinet to prescribe administrative regulations for the prevention, abatement, and control of air pollution. This administrative regulation provides for the control of emissions from existing process operations which are not subject to another particulate emission standard within this chapter.
Section 1. Applicability.
Section 2. Definitions. As used in this administrative regulation, all terms not defined herein shall have the meaning given them in 401 KAR 50:010.
Section 3. Standard for Particulate Matter.
Section 4. Test Methods and Procedures. Except as provided in 401 KAR 50:045, performance tests used to demonstrate compliance with Section 3 of this administrative regulation shall be conducted according to the following methods (Kentucky Methods 50 and 150(F-1) and other methods are filed by reference in 401 KAR 50:015) :

Interpolation of the data for process weight rates up to 60,000 lb/hr. shall be accomplished by use of the equation
E = 4.10P0.67
and interpolation and extrapolation of the data for process weight rates in excess of 60,000 lb/hr. shall be accomplished by the use of the equation
where E = 55.0P0.11-40 where E = rate of emission in lb/hr and P = process weight rate in tons/hr.
