Reference Test Method for Visible Emissions Sample Clauses
The Reference Test Method for Visible Emissions clause establishes the standard procedure for assessing and measuring visible emissions, such as smoke or particulate matter, from a source. Typically, this clause specifies the approved testing methods, equipment, and observation protocols that must be followed to ensure consistent and reliable results. For example, it may require the use of certified observers or specific observation times and distances. Its core practical function is to provide a clear, uniform approach for determining compliance with emission limits, thereby ensuring regulatory clarity and facilitating enforcement.
Reference Test Method for Visible Emissions. Whenever compliance emission testing is required, US EPA Method 9 shall be used to demonstrate compliance. [s. NR 439.06(9)(a)1., Wis. Adm. Code]
Reference Test Method for Visible Emissions. Whenever compliance emission testing is required, US EPA Method 9 shall be used to demonstrate compliance. [s. NR 439.06(9)(a)1., Wis. Adm. Code] (b) The permittee shall retain on site, a statement indicating that natural gas and propane are the only fuels available for combustion at the facility..19 [s. NR 439.04(1)(d), Wis. Adm. Code] 16 Because the maximum theoretical emissions while firing these fuels are less than the allowable limit of 0.15 pounds per million Btu heat input, limiting the type of fuel used is adequate to demonstrate compliance with the particulate matter emission limit. Maximum theoretical particulate matter emissions were calculated using an emission factor of 7.6 pounds per million cubic feet of natural gas fired from AP-42, 5th edition, ch. 1.4. 17 This statement is sufficient because each non-electric drying oven is designed to only burn natural gas and/or propane.
Reference Test Method for Visible Emissions. Whenever compliance emission testing is required, US EPA Method 9 shall be used to demonstrate compliance. [s. NR 439.06(9)(a)1., Wis. Adm. Code] (b) The permittee shall retain on site, a statement indicating that natural gas and propane are the only fuels available for combustion at the facility.15 [s. NR 439.04(1)(d), Wis. Adm. Code] 14 It is not expected that the visible emission limitation of 20% opacity would be exceeded while firing these fuels. Therefore restricting the type of fuel used is adequate to ensure compliance with the emission limitation. 15 This statement is sufficient because the conveyor oven is designed to only burn natural gas and/or propane.
a. Particulate Matter Emissions (a) Emissions may not exceed 0.15 pounds per mmBtu heat input. [s. NR 415.06(2)(a), Wis. Adm. Code] (b) The permittee shall only fire natural gas and/or propane in each of the drying ovens that are not powered by electricity.16 [ss. NR 407.09(1)(c)1.b., Wis. Adm. Code and 285.65(3) and 285.63(1)(a), Wis. Stats.]
(a) Reference Test Method for Particulate Matter Emissions: Whenever compliance emission testing is required, US EPA Methods 5 and Method 202 shall be used to demonstrate compliance. [s. NR 439.06(1), Wis. Adm. Code] (b) The permittee shall retain on site, a statement indicating that natural gas and propane are the only fuels available for combustion at the facility..17 [s. NR 439.04(1)(d), Wis. Adm. Code]
b. Visible Emissions (a) Emissions may not exceed 20% opacity [s. NR 431.05
Reference Test Method for Visible Emissions. Whenever compliance emission testing is required, US EPA Method 9 shall be used to demonstrate compliance. [s. NR 439.06(9)(a)1., Wis. Adm. Code] (b) The permittee shall retain on site a statement indicating that natural gas and propane are the only fuels available for combustion at the facility.. [s. NR 439.04(1)(d), Wis. Adm. Code] 33 Note: s. NR 415.06, Wis. Adm. Code applies only to fuel burning installations with a maximum heat input of more than one million Btus per hour.
Reference Test Method for Visible Emissions. Whenever compliance emission testing is required, US EPA Method 9 shall be used to demonstrate compliance. [s. NR 439.06(9)(a)1., Wis. Adm. Code] (b) The permittee shall retain on site a statement indicating that natural gas and propane are the only fuels available for combustion at the facility.. [s. NR 439.04(1)(d), Wis. Adm. Code] 33 This more restrictive limitation is necessary to ensure the National Ambient Air Quality Standards for particulate matter are attained and maintained. 34 Because the emission limitation listed in I.B.1.a.(1)(a) is equal to the maximum theoretical emissions while firing these fuels, limiting the type of fuel used is adequate to demonstrate compliance with the particulate matter emission limit. Maximum theoretical particulate matter emissions were calculated using an emission factor of 7.6 pounds per million cubic feet of natural gas fired from AP-42, 5th edition, ch. 1.4. 36 It is not expected that the visible emission limitation of 20% opacity would be exceeded while firing these fuels. Therefore restricting the type of fuel used is adequate to ensure compliance with the emission limitation.
