Visible emission definition

Visible emission means the observation of an emission of opacity or optical density above the threshold of vision.
Visible emission means any air contaminant, vapor or gas stream which contains or may contain an air contaminant which is passed into the atmosphere and which is perceptible to the human eye.
Visible emission means any emissions that are visually detectable without the aid of instruments.

Visible emission means any emission which is visually detected without the aid of instruments and which contains particulates of asbestos material.
Visible emission means an emission of opacity or optical density above the threshold of vision, consistent with 40 C.F.R. Part 63.2.
Visible emission means any emissions which are visually detectable without the aid of instruments coming from RACM or asbestos-containing waste material, or from any asbestos milling, manufacturing, or fabricating operation. This includes asbestos debris found outside of containment at a job site. This does not include condensed, uncombined water vapor.
Visible emission means an emission of air contaminants of such quantity or quality as to be seen in contrast with background. Visible emissions are quantified by their opacity, as defined in this Chapter.
