Instructions

 The EPA secondary aluminum production test program requires emissions and other test data for several pollutants. EPA understands that you own one or 

more secondary aluminum production facilities. 

 For at least one thermal chip dryer and at least one scrap dryer/delacquering kiln/decoating kiln that you own, you must perform a stack test for volatile and 

semi-volatile organic HAPs as specified in the letter and instructions accompanying this file. You should collect emissions samples for the identified pollutants 

downstream of the last relevant emissions control device (i.e., stack or other point representing the composition of the flue gases at the exit to the 

atmosphere), unless otherwise indicated. (Contact the EPA project lead for situations with multiple stacks or other complex emissions points for the unit.)

Sample and analyze the particulate matter collected in the hopper from at least one bag house used to control particulate matter from each type of affected 

source subject to 40 CFR 63, subpart RRR at your secondary aluminum production facilities. Choose bag houses that are used to control particulate matter 

from each of the six different types of affected sources (i.e.group 1 furnaces, scrap shredders, chip dryers, scrap dryers/delacquering kilns/decoating kilns, 

dross only furnaces, and rotary dross coolers) if you have these controlled affected sources at your facilities. Where more than one bag house discharges 

solids to a common hopper, a single sample will be adequate. In cases where solids from different compartments of a single bag house are collected in 

multiple hoppers or multiple collection sacks, a single composite sample will be adequate. If you have a total of three or fewer bag houses at all of your 

facilities, sample and analyze particulate matter from all of them, even if they are controlling the same type of affected source. It is not necessary to conduct 

a stack test for multi-metals analysis. 

Sample and analyze the lime used for injection to any of the lime-injected bag houses from which particulate matter samples were collected. If lime of the 

same type, obtained from the same supplier, is used for more than one lime injected bag house, a single sample will be adequate to represent the lime used 

in these bag houses.

You must report the results of these tests and chemical analyses in this Microsoft® Excel Emission Test Template. The Excel templates are specific to each 

type of pollutant. You must report the results of each test on the appropriately labeled worksheet corresponding to the specific tests and analyses conducted 

at your facilities. If more than one source was tested, you must make a copy of the worksheet and update the source ID in order to distinguish between each 

separate test of a chip dryer or scrap dryer/ delacquering kiln/decoating kiln at each facility and each different source of particulate matter. After completing 

the worksheet, you must also submit an electronic copy of the emission test report and the chemical analyses. (PDF format preferred).

Please refer to the cover letter of this packet (CAA section 114 letter) for additional testing information. Please note that you do not have to submit a test 

plan to EPA for approval prior to testing; however, we recommend that you prepare a test plan for your own use to assist in the planning and to verify that 

you address all of the testing and reporting requirements. You must follow all of the procedures as specified in the test methods, including the quality 

assurance and quality control measures, and document the results in any test report provided to EPA.
