Hi Bob, 

Can we get a copy of the emissions data spreadsheet(s) used for the standards, if they are different that what was used 

for the final rule? 

 

Thanks, 

Cortney

Hi Cortney, 

I hope this email finds you well today. 

In response to your question below, please see attached. Note, the Energy Recovery Unit (ERU) and Kiln 

subcategories where the only subcategory limits that were recalculated since promulgation. However, we've 

included the summary table since it also shows (in footnotes) where the representative method detection level 

was used as the emission limit. 

The attached files include the following: 

Limits Summary Table: "Appendix A - Limits_formemo102711" 

ERU solid, coal and biomass emission limit calculation spreadsheets: "ERU" shown in file name 

CISWI kiln emission limit calculation spreadsheets: "Kiln" shown in file name

Cortney - 

I'll ask Brian/Jim to send you the Boiler MACT/Area Source info, and Toni to send 

you the CISWI information. FYI - since Peter reorged SPPD earlier this year, CISWI 

is now in David Cozzie's Group (Fuels and Incineration Group), so I've copied him 

on this response as well. 

thanx!

Hi, 

At the request of one the interagency reviewers, can you please send the following: 

(1) Memo(s) describing how limits were calculated from test data (for both Boilers rules and CISWI);

(2) redline/strikeout of the proposed revised regulations as compared to the current CFR (mentioned on 

page 93 NHSM draft proposal); and 

(3) updated paper: “ As noted in Section II.D.2 of today’s proposed rule, we have updated and 

reorganized the Materials Characterization Paper entitled, “Traditional Fuels and Key Derivatives.” 

 The paper has been updated to reflect data supporting the 2011 Major Source Boiler final rule and the 

2011 CISWI final rule, whereas the previous version of the paper relied on data supporting the 2010 

Major Source Boiler proposed rule and the 2010 CISWI proposed rule.” Footnote 55, page 161 NHSM 

draft proposal

Hi Cortney, 

Attached is the updated CISWI MACT floor emission limit calculation memorandum. Note that previously the 

updated emission limit calculation appendices to this memorandum were already provided (i.e., Appendices A, 

C, D and E where emission limit calculations changed for the ERU solid and waste-burning kiln subcategories).

 Attached are the remaining appendix files that were updated since promulgation: Appendix B and F. Also,

Hi Cortney, 

The updated CISWI database for the reconsideration proposal is attached. This is the only database file for the 

CISWI project, and it contains both survey data and follow-up data obtained from individual sources, as well as 

data obtained from the Portland Cement NESHAP inventory where kilns were identified as being waste-burning 

ones that would be subject to CISWI. Unlike the boiler MACT, the EPA has not sent out additional surveys to 

sources that have identified themselves as CISWI and requested that they receive a survey. All sources that we 

have added to CISWI since promulgation, however, were either included in the original Phase 1 of the 

combustion survey or were surveyed under the Portland cement NESHAP data collection. 

The attached database is a ".zip" file that will need to be uncompressed. However, if that doesn't work, let me 

know, and we can post the zipped file on an FTP site. [NOTE: THE REFERENCED DATABASE IS AVAILABLE 

FROM THE DOCKET OFFICE.] 

Kind regards, 

Toni Wyche Jones

Hi, 

Attached are the interagency comments on the CISWI rule. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Cortney 

 

----- Forwarded by Toni Jones/RTP/USEPA/US on 12/05/2011 10:06 AM ----- 

Here are two additional interagency comments that were not included in the document. 

 

• Pages 50: Homogeneous wastes are defined as stable, consistent in formulation, have known fuel properties, have 

a defined origin, have predictable chemical and physical attributes, and result in consistent combustion characteristics and 

have a consistent emissions profile. However, “Consistent in formulation” is too vague. Even coal from within the same 

seam can have varying compositions to some degree. This definition should be backed by reasonable limits in variation. 

• Page 51: It is stated that mixtures of different types of wastes are generally not homogeneous, unless the mixtures 

are from materials that are each individually determined to be homogeneous, are from known origin, are mixed in 

constant proportion, and are conditioned or processed, such as could occur in the gasification of the wastes. By the 

definition of “consistent” above, a consistent solid waste fuel that is mixed with another consistent fuel does not produce 

a consistent product. This is dependent on the proportions used.

Cortney

Cortney, 

Attached are a clean and redline-strikeout version of the preamble and reg text for the Commercial and Industrial 

Waste Incineration (CISWI) reconsideration proposal. These documents also include the proposed revisions to 

the preamble and reg text for the Non-hazardous Secondary Materials rule. 

Please feel free to contact me with any additional questions or concerns. 

Thank you,

Cortney, 

Attached are a clean revision to the CISWI preamble and rule and a redline strikeout version from Monday. 

 Note that there is still some language in the NHSM piece that is undergoing revision (I believe you are still 

discussing a couple of pieces with ORCR). We will call you shortly to walk through the changes we made in 

response to the interagency comments.
