SUBJECT: Development of the RTR Supplemental Proposal Risk Modeling Dataset for the 

Secondary Aluminum Production Source Category

FROM: Mark Bahner, RTI International

TO: Rochelle Boyd, Environmental Protection Agency

The purpose of this memorandum is to document the technical approach and rationale used to 

develop supplemental proposal risk modeling input data for hazardous air pollutant (HAP) 

emissions for secondary aluminum production facilities. Similar risk modeling was performed 

as part of the initial proposal.1 This work is being performed pursuant to section 112(f) of the 

Clean Air Act as part of the residual risk assessment for facilities that are subject to the National 

Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Secondary Aluminum 

Production (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart RRR).

1. Facilities Modeled

There are an estimated 161 facilities subject to the Secondary Aluminum Production NESHAP. 

Risk assessment inputs were developed for 155 facilities (52 major sources, and 103 area 

sources), as shown in Table 1. There were six facilities that are subject to the Secondary

Aluminum NESHAP that were not included in the risk assessment input files, as shown in 

Table 2. The facilities that were not included in the risk assessment input files included one 

major HAP source and five area HAP sources. The major HAP source was not included

because the secondary aluminum equipment at the source consists of group 2 furnaces, for 

which the EPA did not have HAP emissions estimates. The five area sources were not included 

because they had no equipment subject to dioxins/furans emissions standards, which are the 

only standards in the NESHAP applicable to area sources.

2. Emission Process Groups Modeled

Table 3 shows the secondary aluminum emission process groups that were modeled. Also 

modeled as part of facility-wide risk assessments were primary aluminum sources that were 

collocated at secondary aluminum facilities. Finally, other collocated operations such as coating 

lines, gas-fired boilers and other emission processes were also included in the facility-wide 

modeling. Group 2 furnaces were not included in the modeling dataset because the EPA did not 

have HAP emissions estimates for those furnaces. However, Group 2 furnaces process only 

clean charge and conduct no reactive fluxing. Therefore, HAP emissions from Group 2 furnaces 

are expected to be very minimal, or possibly non-existent.

3. Collocated Sources

The modeling inputs for the primary aluminum operations collocated at secondary aluminum 

production facilities are exactly the same as the inputs used in the 2014 risk assessment for the 

primary aluminum production source category.2

4. Compound-Specific Emissions for Subpart RRR Sources

The pollutants regulated under subpart RRR are particulate matter (PM), hydrochloric acid 

(HCl), total hydrocarbon (THC) and dioxins/furans (D/F). Emissions standards for the affected 

secondary aluminum sources are shown in Table 4.

Subpart RRR uses PM as a surrogate for metallic hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) and THC is a

surrogate for organic HAPs. Since subpart RRR compliance testing is performed for the 

surrogate PM and THC, there are limited test data available for compound-specific metallic and 

organic HAP emissions. In order to generate compound-specific metallic HAP and organic 

HAP emissions estimates, Clean Air Act Section 114 requests (also known as Information 

Collection Requests or ICRs) were sent to nine companies, asking them to perform emissions 

tests and provide the resulting data regarding metallic HAP and organic HAP emissions.3

The metallic HAP data reported in the ICRs consisted of metallic HAP concentrations in the 

particulate collected in air pollution control devices that controlled emissions from various 

pieces of equipment.

Using these test data, Table 5 presents the average, minimum, and maximum concentrations of 

metallic HAPs in PM emitted from individual secondary aluminum operations. It should be 

noted that the testing ICR was not designed exclusively to obtain metallic HAP data. Rather, the

intent was to request test data from nine companies that operated many pieces of equipment, 

with an emphasis on companies that operated thermal chip dryers or scrap dryer/delacquering/

decoating kilns (because the latter two pieces of equipment are relatively rare in the industry). 

However, even though gathering metallic HAP data was only one of the goals of the testing 

ICR, the data gathered are considered representative, because in most cases, many data points 

from multiple plants for each piece of equipment were obtained. See Table 5 for the results of 

metals testing. The average values in Table 5 were used to calculate the emissions estimates for 

the HAP metals which were included in the residual risk input file.

The data in Table 5 were used to calculate actual and allowable emissions of specific metallic 

HAPs from a particular piece of secondary aluminum equipment. For example, assume a Group 

1 furnace handling other than clean charge receives 100,000 tons per year (tpy) of charge. The 

allowable emissions of PM (from Table 4) are 0.40 pounds per ton (lb/ton) of charge, so 

allowable emissions of PM are 40,000 lb/year (or 20 tpy). The average concentration of 

antimony (from Table 5) in the PM is 18.6 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg or 18.6 parts per 

million, or ppm). The calculated allowable emissions of antimony are therefore equal to 20 tpy

times 0.0000186, or 3.72E-04 tpy.

The ICR organic HAP data were collected by performing stack testing on thermal chip dryers 

and scrap dryer/delacquering/decoating kilns, which are the two types of secondary aluminum 

sources that are regulated for THC emissions. Testing was conducted for both THC and 
3

individual organic HAP emissions. Test results were reported as pounds per ton of feed (lb/ton 

of feed). The collected information was used to calculate actual and allowable emissions for 

each organic HAP at the THC limit given in the standard. For example, the THC limit for a 

thermal chip dryer is 0.80 lb/ton of feed. If the test results were 0.40 lb/ton of feed for THC and 

0.001 lb/ton of feed for benzene, the allowable benzene emissions would be 0.002 lb/ton of feed 

(i.e., since the measured THC emissions were half of the NESHAP limit, the measured benzene 

emissions were multiplied by two to calculate the allowable emissions). Results for allowable 

emissions of organic HAPs are summarized in Table 6, in kilograms per megagram (kg/Mg) of 

feed. The results are separated into volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and semivolatile

organic compounds (SVOCs). The results in Table 6 can be converted to allowable emissions 

values for each organic HAP for each piece of equipment. For example, assume a thermal chip 

dryer has a charge of 100,000 tpy. The allowable emissions (in the “average” column) for 

acrylonitrile from a thermal chip dryer are 9.89E-04 kg/Mg. Therefore, the allowable 

acrylonitrile emissions for this piece of equipment would be 0.0989 tons per year (i.e., 100,000 

tpy, multiplied by 9.89E-4 kg/Mg, divided by 1000 kg/Mg).

As described above, Tables 5 and 6 were used in conjunction with charge data to estimate 

allowable and actual speciated metallic and organic HAP emissions for each piece of equipment 

subject to Subpart RRR at each facility. As also described above, it was necessary to do this 

because the standards for metallic HAPs are in the form of a PM surrogate and the standards for 

organic HAPs are in the form of a THC surrogate. Therefore, facilities measure the PM and 

THC surrogates to determine compliance with the standards, rather than measuring speciated 

metallic and organic HAPs. We received THC and/or PM emissions data from 50 major source 

facilities in the source category through an “all-company ICR”, which is described in Section 5 

below. The speciated metal HAP and speciated organic HAP data gathered through the nine 

company ICR facilities were used along with the PM and THC data from the larger set of 

facilities to calculate emissions estimates for each of the specific metal and organic HAPs for 52

major source facilities. This conversion (i.e., PM and/or THC emissions to specific metal or 

organic HAP emissions estimates) was not necessary for HCl, since HCl is the form of the 

standard, and facilities directly measure HCl. We collected HCl data from most major source 

facilities through the all-company ICR. Facilities also report D/F emissions; these emissions are

discussed in Section 11.

5. All-Company ICR Responses

In addition to the nine-company testing ICR sent on May 27, 2010, an ICR was sent on 

February 7, 2011 to all facilities thought to potentially be subject to Subpart RRR.4 Responses 

to this request were used for many of the modeling inputs, including:

 Latitudes and longitudes of stacks;

 Height, diameter, exhaust gas flow rate, and exhaust gas temperature for stack 

releases;

 Type of equipment exhausting to stacks (e.g. scrap shredder, thermal chip dryer,

group 1 furnace handling other than clean charge, etc.);

 Amount of charge (tpy) of equipment exhausting to stacks;
4

 Reported actual emissions of PM (as a surrogate for HAP metals), THC (as a 

surrogate for organic HAPs), HCl, D/F (either reported as individual congeners or 

toxic equivalency quotient [TEQ] or both), and other HAPs, chiefly from collocated 

sources (except for primary aluminum, for which modeling files had already been 

developed2); and

 Hydrogen fluoride (HF) emissions from Subpart RRR sources.

Three separate types of information regarding equipment charge or equipment capacity were 

requested:

 Amount of charge (tpy) – this was the actual charge in the most recent year (after 

2004);

 Maximum capacity of unit (tpy); and

 Charge during most recent performance test (lb/hr).

The vast majority of area and major source facilities provided responses to the all-company 

ICR.

6. Allowable Emissions Calculation Procedures for Subpart RRR Sources

Allowable emissions for HCl and D/F TEQ were calculated as the product of the actual amount 

of charge to the unit (in tpy) for the most recent year (from the all-company ICR response) times 

a conversion factor that calculated the allowable emissions (in tpy) of HCl or D/F TEQ per ton 

of aluminum produced. The amount of charge to the unit was used in the 2014 allowable 

emissions calculation, rather than the maximum capacity of the unit, as was used in the 2011 

modeling. Uniformly assuming that every piece of equipment is being used at maximum 

capacity results in an overestimate of total aluminum throughput that is much larger than the 

actual throughput for the facility as a whole. Moreover, if we assume maximum capacity 

coupled with the assumption that all HAP are being emitted at the highest level allowed by the 

MACT rule (i.e., at the level of the emissions limit), this results in an overly conservative 

estimate of emissions. This overestimation is magnified for large facilities, with multiple pieces 

of equipment. Therefore, for this supplemental proposal, the amount of charge to the unit from 

the all-company ICR was used in the allowable emissions calculation, rather than the maximum 

capacity of the unit. Furthermore, this revised methodology is consistent with EPA’s risk 

assessment methodology performed in other RTR modeling projects (such as Primary Lead 

Manufacturing,5 Secondary Lead Manufacturing,6 and Ferroalloys Manufacturing7

). 

Allowable emissions for speciated HAP metals and speciated organic HAPs were calculated as 

the product of the actual amount of charge to the unit (in tpy) for the most recent calendar year

(from the all-company ICR response) times a conversion factor that calculated the allowable 

emissions of the surrogate pollutant (e.g., PM or THC) times the concentration of the 

compound-specific metallic or organic HAP (from the nine-company testing ICR responses, as 

shown in Tables 5 and 6).

When facilities reported zero charge for a particular piece of equipment in the most recent 

calendar year in the all-company ICR, they were contacted to determine whether the equipment 

was permanently shut down and no longer permitted as of 2014, or whether there were any 
5

annual charge data for the 2004 to the 2014 time period that were representative for that piece of 

equipment. If the facilities reported the equipment as permanently shut down and no longer 

permitted, the annual charge was set at zero; if representative charge data were provided, they

were used; if no charge value could be obtained from the facility, then a default charge value 

was used. See Section 9 of this memorandum for a discussion of default factors. 

Table 7 shows how conversion factors were calculated for each piece of equipment and 

pollutant, and Table 8 summarizes the conversion factors used in the allowable emissions 

calculations. Table 9 provides an example of allowable emissions calculations for a HAP metal 

(antimony), HCl, D/F (in toxic equivalents), a volatile organic HAP (acrylonitrile), and a semivolatile organic HAP (acenaphthene).

Since there are no existing limits for HF emissions, allowable emissions were set equal to actual 

emissions.

7. Actual Emissions Calculation Procedures for HAP Metals and non-D/F Organic 

HAPs from Subpart RRR Sources

Actual emissions were calculated as a fraction of allowable emissions, based on the ratio of 

actual emission value for the surrogate pollutant (from stack test reports, as reported in the allcompany ICR responses) to the NESHAP emission limit (as shown in Table 4). It should be 

noted that nearly all companies provided only the surrogate pollutant information (i.e., PM and 

THC) rather than the speciated HAP information (i.e., speciated HAP metals and speciated 

organic HAP), although companies were asked to report speciated HAP information in the ICR 

responses if they had such information available. Further, no company (other than the nine 

companies that responded to the nine company ICR) provided the complete suite of metallic and 

organic HAPs for which extensive testing was conducted in the nine-company ICR. Therefore, 

we used reported surrogate emissions and calculated the speciated metallic and organic HAP

emissions using the nine-company testing data. However, the facilities’ reported emissions for 

organic HAPs were used if the facility was one of the facilities that conducted testing under the 

nine-company ICR. Table 10 provides an example of actual emissions calculations for a HAP 

metal (antimony), HCl, D/F (in toxic equivalents), a volatile organic HAP (acrylonitrile) and a 

semi-volatile organic HAP (acenaphthene).

8. Stack Locations and Stack Characteristics

Stack latitudes and longitudes as reported in the ICR responses were plotted using Google 

EarthTM and sent to facilities for confirmation or correction. The confirmation or correction

consisted of sending individual facilities a picture (.jpg) file of the ICR response latitudes and 

longitudes plotted in Google EarthTM, with a request that the facility either confirm or correct 

the plotted locations. When there was insufficient time to obtain facility responses, the results 

plotted in Google EarthTM were simply checked to ensure that the stack latitudes and longitudes 

were located on a building at the facility site, or at a control device near a building. Where the 

results were not located on or near a building at the facility site or a control device, the latitudes 

and longitudes were adjusted.
6

Subsequent to the 2011 modeling, it was discovered that facility RTI #195B was modeled with 

stack locations that were not correctly adjusted. All stack locations were correctly adjusted for 

the 2014 modeling.

9. Default Values for Subpart RRR Sources

If emissions were not reported in the ICR responses, default emission factors were used, except 

for HF emissions. If sources did not report HF emissions, we assumed their HF emissions were

zero. Default emission factors were the average values determined from test results that were 

credible. Table 11 summarizes the default emission factors used for modeling. For example, the 

average D/F emission rate during testing of Group 1 furnaces processing other than clean 

charge was 2.16 micrograms per megagram (μg/Mg) of feed, and the emission limit is 15 

μg/Mg of feed. Therefore, the average test result was 0.144 times the standard. Similarly, the 

average PM emission rate during testing of Group 1 furnaces firing other than clean charge was 

0.184 lb/ton of feed, and the emission limit is 0.40 lb/ton of feed. Therefore, the average test 

result was 0.460 times the standard.

Default capacity factor values were also used when the actual charge in the most recent year 

was not given, or was claimed as Confidential Business Information (CBI). Capacity factor is 

the ratio of the actual charge for the most recent year divided by the maximum capacity. As with 

the default emission factors, the default capacity factors were taken as the average capacity 

factor for all equipment of the same type. Table 12 summarizes default capacity factors.

The method in which these defaults were used can be illustrated for a facility that has reported a

maximum capacity for a group 1 furnace handling only clean charge of 100,000 tpy, but

reported the actual charge in the most recent year as CBI. If so, the default capacity factor of

0.493 (provided in Table 12) would be used and the actual charge would be assumed to be 

49,300 tpy. Similarly, if HCl emissions were not reported for this furnace, the default emission 

factor of 0.144 lb/ton would be used. Therefore, the actual HCl emissions would be calculated 

as 49,300 tpy times 0.144 lb/ton, or 7099 lb/yr, or 3.55 tpy.

10. Chromium and Mercury Speciation for Subpart RRR Sources

Mercury emissions from the Secondary Aluminum Production source category are extremely

low (on the order of one pound per year for all of the secondary aluminum production major 

sources). For risk modeling purposes, mercury emissions from Subpart RRR sources were 

assumed to be 80 percent elemental gaseous mercury, 10 percent divalent gaseous mercury and 

10 percent particulate mercury. For equipment not subject to Subpart RRR, mercury speciation 

varied according to the source category.

Chromium speciation between hexavalent chromium and total chromium was as shown in Table

5 for Subpart RRR sources. For other facility-wide sources, chromium speciation varied by 

source category.

11. Allowable and Actual Emissions Results for D/F from Subpart RRR Sources

D/F were determined to be risk drivers for both major sources and area sources. D/F were the 

only HAP modeled for area sources. Therefore, the procedures used to calculate D/F emissions 

and the resulting calculated emissions are presented here. The all-company ICR requested that 
7

facilities provide individual D/F congener data. However, many facilities provided both 

individual congener data and TEQ values, and some facilities provided only TEQ values. 

Calculated allowable and actual emissions of D/F (in TEQ) for major sources are presented in 

Table 13 and for area sources in Table 14.

For almost all of the facilities, the D/F emissions reported in the 2011 ICR were used for the 

2014 modeling. However, for the 10 facilities that had the highest modeled risk from actual 

emissions in the 2011 modeling, we requested submission of the test results from any additional 

D/F testing that had been conducted at these facilities since the 2011 ICR. The additional data 

were gathered to provide more accurate estimates of the dioxin/furan emissions and resulting 

risks for these facilities.

For the Supplemental Proposal modeling in 2014, D/F emissions were modeled as individual 

congeners. Emissions of D/F (in TEQ) presented in Table 13 and Table 14 were converted into 

individual congeners, based on the average mass fractions of individual congeners found in the 

2011 ICR responses and supporting test reports. Table 15 shows the emissions calculations for 

individual D/F congeners. An example of how Table 15 is used is as follows:

 RTI Facility #2 has estimated actual D/F TEQ emissions of 2.54E-10 tpy (from 

Table 14);

 From Table 15, each gram (or ton) of D/F TEQ would represent 2.80E-01 grams (or 

tons) of 1,2,3,4,6,7,8-heptachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (1,2,3,4,6,7,8-HpCDD);

 Therefore, the 1,2,3,4,6,7,8-HpCDD emissions for RTI Facility #2 would be 2.54E10 tpy times 2.80E-01 = 7.14E-11 tpy. 

This same procedure was used to calculate emissions for other D/F congeners. 

12. Quality Control Checks and Resulting Changes

Data reported in the ICRs were checked in several ways. The paragraphs below discuss data 

quality checks that were performed and changes that were made when data reported in the ICR

responses were found to be incorrect.

 The stack latitudes and longitudes reported by facilities were checked in Google

EarthTM, as previously described.

 Anomalously high charge values for RTI #120 were resolved through discussions 

with a consultant for that company.

 For RTI #257 and #352, test reports were received but no ExcelTM workbook ICR

responses were received. Therefore, risk input files were developed from the test 

reports and Google EarthTM images. Similarly, air permits were available for RTI 

#85 and #384, but no ExcelTM workbook ICR responses were received. Risk input 

files were therefore developed from the air permits and Google EarthTM images.
8

 In general, emissions from non-Subpart RRR equipment were input directly into risk 

files. One facility (RTI #292, NEI8066) reported anomalously high emissions of 

nickel from a painting line; contacts with the facility established that the painting 

line did not emit nickel.

 Source category classification (SCC) codes were defaulted where they were missing,

based on process descriptions.

 Additional QA checks were performed on the modeling files in advance of the 2014 

modeling, resulting in some changes. These are described in detail in a separate 

memorandum. See memorandum from Mark Bahner (RTI International) to Rochelle 

Boyd (U.S. EPA), Subject: Modeling Input Revisions for the RTR Risk Modeling 

Dataset for the Secondary Aluminum Production Source Category.

 In a few cases, ICR responses reported emissions that appeared to be greater than 

allowable levels. In those cases, the ICR responses were checked to determine 

whether the equipment was part of a secondary aluminum processing unit (SAPU). 

If the equipment was part of a SAPU, the allowable emission value for that piece of 

equipment was set equal to the actual emission value, since the actual emission was 

allowable under SAPU calculation procedures. If the equipment was not part of a 

SAPU, the test reports were reviewed if available, and the ICR response values 

changed to test report values. For a scrap dryer/delacquering kiln/decoating kiln at 

RTI #289, and a scrap shredder at RTI #195B, test report values were not available

so the actual value was changed to a default value. For a scrap dryer/delacquering 

kiln/decoating kiln at RTI #307, a more recent test report was obtained, and the 

emission factor was changed from 6.5 μg/Mg to 4.5 μg/Mg. 

 The exhaust temperature for the scrap shredder at RTI #352 was revised to 70°F 

(from 42°F), and the stack exit velocity from the scrap shredder at RTI #289 was 

revised to 50 ft/s (from less than 1 ft/s). 

13. Acute Emissions from Subpart RRR Sources

Emissions from equipment at secondary aluminum facilities can vary over time. In order to 

evaluate the acute effects of these variations, annual actual emission values (which are typically 

based on average values obtained during stack testing) were multiplied by the acute RTR default 

multiplier factor of ten.

As explained in the FR Notice for this action, the EPA chose the default factor of ten for the 

RTR program based on process knowledge and engineering judgment. The factor chosen also 

reflects a Texas study of short-term emissions variability, which showed that most peak 

emission events in a heavily-industrialized four-county area (Harris, Galveston, Chambers and 

Brazoria Counties, Texas) were less than twice the annual average hourly emissions rate. The 

highest peak emissions event was 74 times the annual average hourly emissions rate and the 

99th percentile ratio of peak hourly emissions rate to the annual average hourly emissions rate 

was 9. Considering this analysis, to account for more than 99 percent of the peak hourly 

emissions, we apply a conservative screening multiplication factor of 10 to the average annual 

hourly emissions rate in our acute exposure screening assessments as our default approach. 
9

However, we use a factor other than 10 if we have information that indicates that a different 

factor is appropriate for a particular source category. For this source category, there was no such 

information available and the default factor of 10 was used in the acute screening process.

14. Hydrogen Fluoride (HF) Emissions from Subpart RRR Sources

Emissions of HF were modeled as reported in ICR responses. If facilities did not report HF

emissions from individual sources, the HF emissions reported for the whole facility were 

divided equally among similar furnaces at the facility. Allowable HF emissions were set equal 

to actual emissions. 

15. Non-Category Facility Emissions

A dataset representing facility-wide emissions was also developed. This dataset consisted of 

HAP emissions from all processes at the secondary aluminum production facilities, including 

the data described above for the secondary aluminum production source category emissions, as 

well as all HAP emitted from non-secondary aluminum production processes. Four modeling 

files were developed for use in the risk review; a file with data for only secondary aluminum 

major sources, a file with data for only secondary aluminum area sources, a file for only primary 

aluminum major sources collocated with 8 secondary aluminum major source facilities, and a 

modeling file with other noncategory emissions that are not primary aluminum units at major 

sources. A total of 52 major source facilities and 103 area source facilities were modeled. Of the

52 major source facilities, 8 were collocated with primary aluminum units. Of the 52 major 

source facilities, 27 had noncategory emissions that were not primary aluminum units, and 6 of 

the 27 facilities also had primary aluminum units. Noncategory emissions data were not 

available for the area source facilities.

The facility-wide emissions dataset was created by adding non-secondary aluminum source 

category emission points to the secondary aluminum source category dataset. A facility-wide 

modeling file for major sources was created by combining the major source secondary 

aluminum file, major source primary aluminum collocated file, and noncategory non-primary 

aluminum major source file. The facility-wide modeling file for area sources was the same as 

the area source secondary aluminum file. To create the facility wide modeling file for major 

sources, primary aluminum emissions data for collocated sources were extracted from the 

primary aluminum modeling file.

2 In addition, other noncategory emissions data that were not 

submitted for the section 114 request or extracted from the primary aluminum proposal file were 

extracted from the 2008 National Emissions Inventory (NEI).

D/Fg

a D/F limit applies to a unit at a major or area source.

b Sweat furnaces equipped with afterburners meeting the specifications of §63.1505(f)(1) are not required to conduct a

performance test.

c These limits are also used to calculate the limits applicable to secondary aluminum processing units.

d Equation definitions: LiPM = the PM emission limit for individual emission unit i in the secondary aluminum processing

unit [kg/Mg (lb/ton) of feed]; Ti = the feed rate for individual emission unit i in the secondary aluminum processing unit;

LtPM = the overall PM emission limit for the secondary aluminum processing unit [kg/Mg (lb-ton) of feed]; LiHCl = the

HCl emission limit for individual emission unit i in the secondary aluminum processing unit [kg/Mg (lb/ton) of feed];

LtHCl = the overall HCl emission limit for the secondary aluminum processing unit [kg/Mg (lb/ton) of feed]; LiD/F =

the D/F emission limit for individual emission unit i [μg TEQ/Mg (gr TEQ/ton) of feed]; LtD/F = the overall D/F

emission limit for the secondary aluminum processing unit [μg TEQ/Mg (gr TEQ/ton) of feed]; n = the number of units

in the secondary aluminum processing unit.

e In-line fluxers using no reactive flux materials cannot be included in this calculation since they are not subject to the

PM limit.

f In-line fluxers using no reactive flux materials cannot be included in this calculation since they are not subject to the

HCl limit.

g Clean charge furnaces cannot be included in this calculation since they are not subject to the D/F limit.
