Operating limits do not apply during performance tests.

3. You shall only burn the same types of waste used to establish operating limits during the performance test.

(b) By what date must I conduct the annual performance test? You shall conduct annual performance tests for particulate matter, hydrogen chloride and opacity within 12 months following the initial performance test. Subsequent annual performance tests shall be conducted within 12 months following the previous one.

1. You may test less often for a given pollutant if you have test data for at least 3 years, and all performance tests for the pollutant (particulate matter, hydrogen chloride or opacity) over 3 consecutive years show that you comply with the emission limitation. In this case, you do not have to conduct a performance test for that pollutant for the next 2 years. You shall conduct a performance test during the 3rd year and no later than 36 months following the previous performance test.

2. If your CISWI unit continues to meet the emission limitation for particulate matter, hydrogen chloride or opacity, you may choose to conduct performance tests for these pollutants every 3rd year, but each test shall be within 36 months of the previous performance test.

3. If a performance test shows a deviation from an emission limitation for particulate matter, hydrogen chloride or opacity, you shall conduct annual performance tests for that pollutant until all performance tests over a 3-year period show compliance.

(d) May I conduct a repeat performance test to establish new operating limits?

1. You may conduct a repeat performance test at any time to establish new values for the operating limits. The department may request a repeat performance test at any time.

2. You shall repeat the performance test if your feed stream is different than the feed streams used during any performance test used to demonstrate compliance.
