One New Reference Method and Four 

New Equivalent Methods 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of designation of one 

reference method and three equivalent 

methods for monitoring ambient air 

quality. 

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that 

the Environmental Protection Agency 

(EPA) has designated, in accordance 

with 40 CFR part 53, one new reference 

method and one new equivalent for 

measuring concentrations of PM2.5, one 

new equivalent method for measuring 

PM10-2.5, and two new equivalent 

methods for measuring ozone (O3) in the 

ambient air. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Robert Vanderpool, Human Exposure 

and Atmospheric Sciences Division 

(MD–D205–03), National Exposure 

Research Laboratory, U.S. EPA, 

Research Triangle Park, North Carolina 

27711. Email: Vanderpool.Robert@

epa.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 

accordance with regulations at 40 CFR 

part 53, the EPA evaluates various 

methods for monitoring the 

concentrations of those ambient air 

pollutants for which EPA has 

established National Ambient Air 

Quality Standards (NAAQSs), as set 

forth in 40 CFR part 50. Monitoring 

methods that are determined to meet 

specific requirements for adequacy are 

designated by the EPA as either 

reference methods or equivalent 

methods (as applicable), thereby 

permitting their use under 40 CFR part 

58 by States and other agencies for 

determining compliance with the 

NAAQSs. 

The EPA hereby announces the 

designation of one new reference 

method for measuring PM2.5, one new 

equivalent method for measuring PM2.5, 

one new equivalent method for 

measuring PM10-2.5, and two equivalent 

methods for measuring ozone (O3) in the 

ambient air. These designations are 

made under the provisions of 40 CFR 

part 53, as amended on August 31, 2011 

(76 FR 54326–54341). 

The new reference method for PM2.5

is a manual monitoring method based 

on a particular PM2.5 sampler and is 

identified as follows: 


asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 108 / Friday, June 5, 2015 / Notices 32115 

RFPS–0315–221, ‘‘Met One 

Instruments, Inc. e-FRM,’’ configured 

for filter sampling of ambient particles 

using the US EPA PM10 inlet specified 

in 40 CFR 50 Appendix L, Figs. L–2 thru 

L–19, equipped with either a BGI 

VSCCTM cyclone or WINS PM2.5

fractionator, with a flow rate of 16.67 

L/min, using 47 mm PTFE membrane 

filter media, and operating with 

firmware version R1.1.0 and later, and 

operated in accordance with the Met 

One e-FRM PM2.5 operating manual. 

The application for reference method 

determination for the PM2.5 method was 

received by the Office of Research and 

Development on January 9, 2015. This 

monitor is commercially available from 

the applicant, Met One Instruments, 

Inc., 1600 Washington Blvd., Grants 

Pass, OR 97526. 

The new PM2.5 Class II equivalent 

method is nearly identical to a 

corresponding Tisch Environmental Inc. 

sampler (RFPS–1014–219) that had been 

previously designated by EPA as a 

reference method sampler for PM2.5. The 

significant difference is that the newly 

designated PM2.5 equivalent method 

sampler is configured to use a Tisch 

Environmental Inc. Model TE–PM2.5C 

cyclone as the principle size separator 

(fractionator) for the sampler rather than 

the WINS impactor or the BGI VSCCTM

used in the corresponding PM2.5

reference method sampler. The newly 

designated Class II equivalent method is 

identified as follows: 

EQPS–0415–223 ‘‘Tisch 

Environmental Model TE-Wilbur2.5 

PM2.5 Low-Volume Air Particulate 

Sampler,’’ configured as a PM2.5

equivalent method, with firmware 

version 1.70 or later and a TE–PM10–D 

PM10 size-selective inlet as specified in 

40 CFR 50 Appendix L Figs. L–2 thru 

L–19, configured with a Tisch TE– 

PM2.5C particle size separator, and 

operated for 24-hour continuous sample 

periods at a flow rate of 16.67 L/min, 

using 47 mm PTFE membrane filter 

media, operated with or without the 

optional TE–W–600 Solar Panel Power 

Supply kit, and in accordance with the 

Tisch Environmental Model TE– 

Wilbur2.5 PM2.5 Low-Volume Air 

Particulate Sampler instruction manual 

and with the requirements and sample 

collection filters as specified in 40 CFR 

part 50, Appendix L. 

In the particular case of the new Tisch 

Class II PM2.5 equivalent method, a 

corresponding Tisch Environmental Inc. 

PM2.5 reference method sampler (RFPS– 

1014–219) may be converted to the 

equivalent method configuration by 

replacement of the WINS impactor or 

the VSCCTM cyclone with the Tisch 

Environmental TE–PM2.5C cyclone 

specified in the equivalent method 

description. The TE–PM2.5C device 

should be purchased from the sampler 

manufacturer, who will also furnish 

installation, conversion, operation, and 

maintenance instructions for the TE– 

PM2.5C, as well as a new equivalent 

method identification label to be placed 

on the sampler. If the conversion is to 

be permanent, the original designation 

reference method label should be 

removed from the sampler and replaced 

with the new designated equivalent 

method label. In the case where a 

converted sampler may need to be 

restored later to its original reference 

method configuration (such as for an 

application specifically requiring a 

reference method) by re-installation of 

the WINS impactor or the VSCCTM

cyclone, the new equivalent method 

label may be installed on the sampler 

without removing the original reference 

method label, such that the sampler 

bears both labels. In this situation, the 

sampler shall be clearly and 

conspicuously marked by the operator 

to indicate its current configuration (i.e. 

WINS reference method, VSCCTM

reference method, or TE–PM2.5C 

equivalent method) so that the 

monitoring method is correctly 

identified and the correct method code 

is used when reporting monitoring data 

obtained with the sampler. 

The new PM10-2.5 equivalent method 

utilizes a pair of filter samplers, one of 

which has been designated as an 

equivalent method for PM2.5, and one 

which has been designated as a 

reference method for PM10. Both 

samplers have been shown to meet the 

requirements specified in Appendix O 

of 40 CFR part 50. The PM2.5 equivalent 

method sampler and the PM10 reference 

method sampler are designated as 

EQPS–0415–223 and RFPS–0714–216, 

respectively. The newly designated 

PM10-2.5 equivalent method sampler is 

identified as follows: 

EQPS–0415–224, ‘‘Tisch 

Environmental Model TE–Wilbur LowVolume Air Particulate Sampler Pair’’ 

for the determination of coarse 

particulate matter as PM10-2.5, consisting 

of a pair of Tisch Environmental Model 

TE–Wilbur samplers, with one being the 

TE–Wilbur2.5 PM2.5 sampler with TE– 

PM2.5C particle size separator (EQPS– 

0415–223) and the other being a TE– 

Wilbur10 PM10 sampler (RFPS–0714– 

216), and operated in accordance with 

the associated TE–Wilbur instruction 

manual. This designation applies to 

PM10-2.5 measurements only. 

The application for equivalent 

method Class II determination for the 

PM2.5 method was received by the Office 

of Research and Development on July 

21, 2014 and the PM10-2.5 method 

application was received on April 21, 

2015. These samplers are commercially 

available from the applicant, Tisch 

Environmental, Inc., 145 S. Miami 

Avenue, Village of Cleves, OH 45002. 

The two new equivalent methods for 

ozone are both automated monitoring 

methods (analyzers) utilizing ultraviolet 

absorption photometry and are 

identified as follows: 

EQOA–0415–222, ‘‘Sutron Model 

6030 Ozone Analyzer,’’ operated at any 

of the following measurement ranges: 0– 

0.05 ppm, 0–0.5 ppm and 0–1.0 ppm, at 

any ambient temperature in the range of 

5 °C–45 °C, with an averaging time of 1 

to 99 analyzer cycles (0 to 396 seconds), 

with sample flow rate of 0.5 to 1 Lpm 

and in accordance with the Model 6030 

Ozone Analyzer Operation Manual and 

with or without the following options: 

Internal ozone generator, zero/span 

ports for external calibration. 

This application for equivalent 

method determination for the ozone 

method was received by the Office of 

Research and Development on March 9, 

2015. This monitor is commercially 

available from the applicant, Sutron Air 

Quality Division, 2548 Shell Road, 

Georgetown, TX 78628. 

EQOA–0515–225 ‘‘Environnement 

S.A. Model O3 42e UV Photometric 

Ozone Analyzer,’’ operated in a range of 

0–0.5 ppm in an environment of 0–35 

°C, with a Teflon sample inlet filter, 

with automatic temperature and 

pressure compensation, with zero/span 

external solenoid valve, with automatic 

or fixed response time, and with or 

without the following options: ESTEL 

Analog Input/Output Board, LCD color 

touch screen, and internal ozone 

generator. 

The application for equivalent 

method determination for the ozone 

method was received by the Office of 

Research and Development on April 20, 

2015. This analyzer is commercially 

available from the applicant, 

Environnement S.A., 111, Boulevard 

Robespierre, 78300 Poissy France. 

Test monitors representative of these 

methods have been tested in accordance 

with the applicable test procedures 

specified in 40 CFR part 53, as amended 

on August 31, 2011. After reviewing the 

results of those tests and other 

information submitted in the 

application, EPA has determined, in 

accordance with Part 53, that these 

methods should be designated as 

equivalent methods. 

As designated reference and 

equivalent methods, these methods are 

acceptable for use by states and other air 

monitoring agencies under the 

requirements of 40 CFR part 58,
