Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 9, September 27, 2024
Except as otherwise provided in 264.1, owners and operators
of facilities that have process vents to which subpart AA of part 264 applies
must provide the following additional information:
(a) For facilities that cannot install a
closed vent system and control device to comply with the provisions of 264
subpart AA on the effective date that the facility becomes subject to the
provisions of 264 or 265 subpart AA, an implementation schedule as specified in
264.1033(a)(2).
(b) Documentation
of compliance with the process vent standards in 264.1032, including:
(1) Information and data identifying all
affected process vents, annual throughput and operating hours of each affected
unit, estimated emission rates for each affected vent and for the overall
facility (i.e., the total emissions for all affected vents at the facility),
and the approximate location within the facility of each affected unit (e.g.,
identify the hazardous waste management units on a facility plot
plan).
(2) Information and data
supporting estimates of vent emissions and emission reduction achieved by add
on control devices based on engineering calculations or source tests. For the
purpose of determining compliance, estimates of vent emissions and emission
reductions must be made using operating parameter values (e.g., temperatures,
flow rates, or concentrations) that represent the conditions that exist when
the waste management unit is operating at the highest load or capacity level
reasonably expected to occur.
(3)
Information and data used to determine whether or not a process vent is subject
to the requirements of 264.1032.
(c) Where an owner or operator applies for
permission to use a control device other than a thermal vapor incinerator,
catalytic vapor incinerator, flare, boiler, process heater, condenser, or
carbon adsorption system to comply with the requirements of 264.1032, and
chooses to use test data to determine the organic removal efficiency or the
total organic compound concentration achieved by the control device, a
performance test plan as specified in 264.1035(b)(3).
(d) Documentation of compliance with
264.1033, including:
(1) A list of all
information references and sources used in preparing the
documentation.
(2) Records,
including the dates, of each compliance test required by 264.1033(k).
(3) A design analysis, specifications,
drawings, schematics, and piping and instrumentation diagrams based on the
appropriate sections of "APTI Course 415: Control of Gaseous Emissions"
(incorporated by reference as specified in 270.6) or other engineering texts
acceptable to the Department that present basic control device information. The
design analysis shall address the vent stream characteristics and control
device operation parameters as specified in
Sec.264.1035(b)(4)(iii)(b)(4)(iii).
(4) A statement signed and dated by the owner
or operator certifying that the operating parameters used in the design
analysis reasonably represent the conditions that exist when the hazardous
waste management unit is or would be operating at the highest load or capacity
level reasonably expected to occur.
(5) A statement signed and dated by the owner
or operator certifying that the control device is designed to operate at an
efficiency of 95 weight percent or greater unless the total organic emission
limits of 264.1032(a) for affected process vents at the facility can be
attained by a control device involving vapor recovery at an efficiency less
than 95 weight percent.
