6660 Federal Register / Voi 54, No. 29 / Tuesday, February 14, 1989 / Rules and Regulations 

The General Counsel has certified to 

the Chief Counsel, for Advocacy, Small 

Business Administration that the rule 

change is not expected to have a 

significant adverse economic impact on 

a substantial number of small entities 

(Regulatory Flexibility Act, Pub. L. 96-

354) because in merely codifying the 

inherent right of the PTO to reconsider 

its decisions sua sponte, the rule 

extends the right to each party in a PTO 

disciplinary proceeding to seek 

reconsideration. 

The Patent and Trademark Office has 

determined that this rule change is not a 

major rule under Executive Order 12291. 

The annual effect on the economy will 

be less than $100 million. There will be 

no major increases in costs or prices forconsumers.individual industries. 

Federal, State or local government 

agencies, or geographic regions. There 

will be no adverse effects on 

competition, employment, investment, 

productivity, innovation, or on the 

ability of United States based 

enterprises to compete with foreignbased enterprises in domestic or export 

markets. 

The Patent and Trademark Office has 

also determined that this notice has no 

Federalism implications affecting the 

relationship between the National 

government and the States as outlined 

in Executive Order 12612. 

This rule change does not contain a 

collection of information subject to the 

Paperwork Reduction Act-of 1980, 44

follows: 

Authority: 5 U.S.C. 500; 15 U.S.C. 1123; 35 

U.S.C. 6, 31, 32, 41. 

2. Section 10.156 is amended by 

revising paragraph (a) and adding new 

paragraph (c) to read as follows: " 

§10.156 Decision of the Commissioner. 

(a] An appeal from an initial decision 

of the administrative law judge shall be 

decided by the Commissioner. The 

Commissioner may affirm, reverse or 

modify the initial decision or remand the 

matter to the administrative law judge 

for such further proceedings as the 

Commissioner may deem appropriate. 

Subject to paragraph (c) of this section, 

a decision by the Commissioner does -

not become a final agency action in a 

disciplinary proceeding until 20 days 

after it is entered. In making a final 

decision, the Commissioner shall review 

the record or those portions of the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. The Rulemaking. 

The test methods and procedures 

section of each subpart has been revised 

primarily to clarify the section by 

consolidating all procedures that pertain 

to one measurement (e.g., particulate 

matter concentrations) under one 

paragraph, to delete repetitions of 

methods already referenced within a 

cited method (e.g., Methods 1, 2, and 3 

are referenced by Method 5 and, 

therefore, have not been listed again),, 

and to separate alternative methods 

from reference methods. In addition, 

other changes have been made for 

consistency from one subpart or one 

section to another; procedures that were 

overlooked in the :promulga tion for 

requirements already in the subparts 

have been includedi and technical errors 

have been corrected. Major amendments 

besides clarifications are listed below: 

1. Section 60.2: Since the standards 

are based on reference methods, the 

applicable subpart rather than 

Appendix A is being used to define the 

reference methods. The title of 

Appendix A is being revised from 

"Reference Methods" to "Test Methods" 

in another rulemaking action to allow 

the inclusion of alternative methods in 

Appendix A. 

2. Section 60.8(b) and(e): Certain .-... 

phrases or requirements are repeated in 

each subpart or in a number of subparts. 

Since they are generally applicable to all 

subparts, these phrases and 

requirements have been incorporated 

into tho General Provisions. 
P.4 

Federal Register / Vol. 54, No. 29 /Tuesday. February 14, 1989 / Rules and Regulations 6661 

3. Section 60.44a: Lignite fuel subject 

to the 340 ng/J standard is being added 

to the equation and a clarifying footnote 

is being added to the table. 

4. Sections 60.46 and 60.48a: The use 

of F,. factors has been incorporated into 

die procedures. This change was the 

result of comments received during 

proposal. 

5. Section 60.54: A procedure for 

Method 3 for a facility without a wet 

scrubber is being added! The grabsampling technique of Method 3 is also 

being added. 

6. Sections 60.93, 60.123, and 60.133: 

Sampling rate is being changed to 

sample volume. 

7. Sections 60.165,60.175, 60.185: The 

' requirement for compressing the ' 

recorder scale during the performance 

evaluation test is being deleted. 

8. Sections 60.166, 60.176 and 60.186: 

The specification for monitoring system 

drift not to exceed 2 percent of span 

value which is in Subpart P and 

overlooked in Subparts Q and R is being 

added. In addition, dry basis 

measurements of the SO2 concentration 

are being specified. 

Subparts Db. J, EE. MM. QQ. RR, SS, 

TT. WW, and FFF are not being 

amended at this time. It has been 

determined that Subparts K, Ka, HHH, 

JJJ, and KKK require no amendments. 

This rulemaking does not impose 

emission measurement requirements 

beyond those specified in the current 

regulations, nor does it change any. 

emission standard. Rather, the 

rulemaking would simply clarify and in 

some instances add a procedure 

associated with emission measurement 

or process monitoring requirements that 

would apply irrespective Of this 

rulemaking. 

H. Public Participation 

The amendments were proposed in 

the Federal Register on February 19, 

1988 (53.FR 5082). To provide interested 

persons tiie opportunity for oral 

presentation of data, views, or 

arguments concerning the proposed 

amendments, a public hearing was 

scheduled for April 4,1988, at the ". 

Research Triangle Park. North Carolina, 

but was not-held-.because no one wished 

to make an oral presentation. The public 

comment period was from February 19, 

1988, to May 4,1988. Three comment , 

letters were received... . 

III. Significant Comments and Changes 

to the Proposed Amendments 

The three comment letters on the . 

proposed amendments were from 

industry and a utility ad hoc group, and 

all comments concerned only § 60.8, 

Subpart D (Fossil-Fuel Fired Steam 

Generators), and Subpart Da (Electric 

Utility Steam Generating Units). There 

were nd comments on the amendments 

made to the other 39 subparts. 

All three commenters objected to the 

withdrawal of Methods 6A and 6B 

primarily because no clear justification 

was given. The primary reason for the 

proposed withdrawal of Methods 6A 

and 6B for emission performance tests 

and continuous monitoring relative 

accuracy tests is due to the slightly 

greater variability of the Fc factor than 

the Fd factor (6 percent vs. 3 percent). 

Both Methods 6A and 6B are based on 

the Fc factor. 

The first commenter suggested that if 

the difference between the Fc and Fd 

factors was of concern, ultimate 

analysis of coal samples could be used 

to prove the appropriateness of the Fc 

factor. After considering the 

commenter's suggestion, EPA has 

decided to allow the use of Methods 6A 

and 6B as alternative methods with one 

restriction. If the average Fc factor in 

Method 19 is used and when the 

emission rate is from 0^97 to 1.00 of the 

emission standard or the relative 

accuracy is from 17 and 20 percent, then 

a check of the acceptability of the Fc 

factor is made. 

This same commenter suggested that 

Method 8 and Metiiod 7D be designated 

as alternatives to Method 6. In section 

2.1 of Method 6, Method 8 is designated 

as an acceptable alternative to Method 6 

provided that a heated filter is placed 

between the probe and isopropanol 

impingen Since this applies to wherever 

Method 6 is used, it is unnecessary to 

repeat its acceptability as an alternative 

in § 60.46(d)(3). Method 7D cannot be 

added without going through the 

rulemaking process. The Agency plans 

to consider this action in the near future. 

The second commenter Stated that the 

proposed amendment to § 60.8(e)(1) 

could, be made clearer by referencing 

appropriate sections of Method 1. The 

Agency feels that paragraph (e)(l)(i). 

which states "constructing the air 

pollution control system such that 

volumetric flow rates and pollutant 

emission rates can be accurately 

determined by applicable test methods 

and procedures," is sufficiently clear to 

give the necessary intent. In the case of ,: 

particulate matter, Methods 1,2, and 5 

are the applicable procedures, which 

contain criteria and procedures for 

. ensuring that measurements of flow arid 

emission rates are accurate. The Agency 

agrees that paragraph (e)(1)(H) could be 

, made clearer. It has been revised as 

follows: "providing a stack or duct free 

of cyclonic flow during performance 

tests, as demonstrated by applicable 

test methods and procedures."

 : 

This same commenter suggested that 

§ 60.45(f) can be shortened by 

referencing section 3 of Method 19. The 

Agency agrees and plans to revise this 

paragraph under a separate action. 

This commenter also asked whether 

the expressions "The owner or operator 

may use" and "at the sole discretion of 

the owner and operator" have the same 

impact to EPA. Both expressions mean 

the same thing. Only the source owner 

pr operator may choose to use the 

alternative methods for determining 

compliance. However, it does not mean 

that only the owner or operator may use 

the alternative methods. Alternative 

methods are those that have been 

shown to produce results adequate for 

determining compliance and may have 

no bias, a positive bias, or a slightly 

negative bias. The intent of such 

expression was to indicate that control 

agencies should not mandate the use of 

alternative methods if the owner or 

operator chooses not to use them. 

However, the alternative status does not 

preclude the control agency from using 

the method for compliance purposes; it 

only means that an agency must 

consider positive biases, if any (some 

alternative methods have been shown 

not to exhibit any bias), when using 

alternative methods. 

The second commenter suggested that 

reference to § 60.46 in §§ 60.a (c)(4) and 

(d)(1) be deleted. The reference was 

made to § 60.46 to indicate that only Fd 

factors should be used. However, with 

the changes allowing the use of tiie Fc 

factors, the reference has been deleted. 

This same commenter stated that the 

first equation in § 60:43a(h)(2) has no 

meaning and therefore is unnecessary. 

The EPA realizes that the first equation 

would not be applicable. The equation 

was included to satisfy the requirements 

of section 111(a) of the Clean Air Act, as 

amended. 

Two of the commenters pointed out 

several typesetting errors. These have 

been noted. 

As a result of an. EPA internal review, 

the proposed addition of a minimum 

sampling time of 120 minutes to 

§ § 60.386(b)(3) and 60.675(b)(3) has been 

rescinded because an averaging time 

was riot considered essential for 

determining compliance in these 

subparts. 

IV. Administrative.. 

A. Docket 

The docket is an organized and 

complete file of all the information 

submitted to or otherwise considered 

EPA iri the development of this 

rulemaking. The docket is a dynamic 
P.5 

6662 Federal Register / Vol. 54, No. 29 / Tuesday, February 14, 1989 / Rules and Regulations 

file, since material is added throughout 

the rulemaking development. The 

docketing system is intended to allow 

members of the public and industries 

involved to identify readily and locate 

documents so they can effectively 

participate in the rulemaking process. 

Along with die statement of basis and 

purpose of the proposed and 

promulgated rule, and EPA responses to 

significant comments, the contents of 

the docket, except for interagency 

review materials, will serve as the 

record in case of judicial review (Clean 

Air Act, section 307(d)(7)(A)). 

B. Off ice of Management and Budget 

Reviews 

Under Executive Order 12291, EPA is 

required to judge whether a regulation is 

a "major rule" and, therefore, subject to 

die requirements of a regulatory impact 

analysis. The Agency has determined 

that this regulation would result in none 

of the adverse economic effects set forth 

in section 1 of the Order as grounds for 

finding a regulation to be a "major rule." 

The rulemaking does not impose 

emission measurement requirements 

beyond those specified in the current 

regulations, but instead, provides 

simplification and clarification in the 

test methods and procedures sections of 

the regulation that would apply 

irrespective of this rulemaking. The 

Agency has, therefore, concluded that 

this regulation is not a "major rule" 

under Executive Order 12291. 

As required by Executive Order 12291, 

this Final Rule has been reviewed by the 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB). Any written OMB comments to 

EPA and EPA's response to these 

comments will be available for 

inspection in the public docket for this 

rulemaking. 

C. Regulatory Flexibility Act 

Compliance 

The Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) 

of 1980 requires the identification of 

potentially adverse impacts of Federal 

regulations upon small business entities. 

The Act specifically requires the 

completion of an RFA in those instances 

where small business impacts are 

possible. Because this rulemaking 

imposes no adverse economic impacts, 

an RFA has not been conducted. 

Pursuant to the provisions of 5 U.S.C. 

605(b), I hereby certify that this 

promulgated rule will not have any 

economic impact on small entities 

because no changes are being made lo 

testing requirements.

(b) The owner or operator shall 

determine compliance with the 

particulate matter, SO2, and NO, 

standards in §§60.42, 60.43, and 60.44 as 

follows: 

(1) The emission rate (E) of particulate 

matter, SOi, or NO, shall be computed 

for each run using the following 

equation: 

E=CFd (20.9)/(20.9-% O.) 

E = emission rate of pollutant, ng/J (lb/ 

million Btu). 

C = concentration of pollutant, ng/dscm (lb/ 

dscf). 

%02 = oxygen concentration, percent dry 

basis. 

Fd = factor as determined from Method 19. 

(2) Method 5 shall be used to 

determine the particular matter 

concentration (C) at affected facilities

(FGD) systems and Method 5B shall be 

used to determine die particulate matter 

concentration (C) after FGD systems. 

(i) The sampling time and sample 

volume for each run shall be at least 60 

minutes and 0.85 dscm (30 dscf). The 

probe and filter holder heating systems 

in the sampling train may be set to

(ii) The. emission rate correction 

factor, integrated or grab sampling and 

analysis procedure of Method 3 shall be 

used to determine the O2 concentration 

(%02). The O2 sample shall be obtained 

simultaneously with, and at the same 

traverse points as, the particulate 

sample. If the grab sampling procedure 

is used, the O2 concentration for the run 

shall be the arithmetic mean of all the 

individual O2 sample concentrations at 

each traverse point. 

(iii) If the particulate run has more 

than 12 traverse points, the Oj traverse 

points may be reduced to 12 provided 

that Method 1 is used to locate the 12 O2 

traverse points. 

(3) Mediod 9 and die procedures in 

§ 60.11 shall be used to determine 

opacity.

as that selected for the particulate 

sample. The sampling location in the 

duct shall be at the centroid of the cross 

section or at a point no closer to the 

walls than 1 m (3.28 ft). The sampling 

time and sample volume for each 

sample run shall be at least 20 minutes. 

and 0.020 dscm (0.71 dscf). Two samples 

shall be taken during a 1-hour period, 

with each sample taken within a 30-

minute interval. 

(ii) The emission rate correction 

factor, integrated sampling and analysis 

procedure of Method 3 shall be used to 

determine the Oj concentration (%Oi). 

The O2 sample shall be taken 

simultaneously with, and at the same 

point as, the SQ» sample. The SO2 

emission rate shall be computed for 

each pair of SO2 and Oz samples. The 

SO2 emission rate (E) for each run shall 

be die aridimetic mean of the results of 

die two pairs of samples. 

(5) Method 7 shall be used to 

determine the NO„ concentration. 

(i) The sampling site and location 

shall be the same as for the SO2 sample. 

Each run shall consist of four grab 

samples, with each sample taken at 

about 15-minute intervals. 

(ii) For each NOz sample, the emission 

rate correction factor, grab sampling and 

analysis procedure of Method 3 shall be 

used to determine the O2 concentration 

(%02). The sample shall be taken 

simultaneously with, and at the same 

point as, the NO„ sample. 

(iii) The NO„ emission rate shall be 

computed for each pair of NO, and Oi 

samples. The NO, emission rate (E) for 

each run shall be the arithmetic mean of 

the results of the four pairs of samples. 

(c) When combinations of fossil fuels 

or fossil fuel and wood residue are fired, 

the owner or operator (in order to 

compute the prorated standard as 

shown in §§ 60.43(b) and 60.44(b)) shall 

determine the percentage (w, x. y, or z) 

. of the total heat input derived from each 

type of fuel as follows: 

(1) The heat input rate of each fuel 

shall be determined by multiplying the 

gross calorific value of each fuel fired by 

the rate of each fuel burned. 

(2) ASTM Mediods D 2015-77 (solid 

fuels), D 240-76 (liquid fuels), or D 1826-

77 (gaseous fuels) (incorporated by 

reference—see § 60.17) shall be used to 

determine the gross calorific values of 

the fuels. The method used to determine 

the calorific value of wood residue must 

be approved by the Adrhinistrator. 

(3) Suitable methods shall be used to 

determine the rate of each fuel burned 

during each test period, and a material 

balance over die steam generating 

system shall be used to confirm the rate. 

(d) The owner or operator may use the 

following as alternatives to the 

reference mediods and procedures in 

this section or in other sections as 

specified: 

(1) The emission rate (E) of particulate 

matter, SO2 and NOK may be determined 

by using the Fc factor, provided that the 

following procedure is used: 

(i) The emission rate (E) shall be 

computed using the following equation: 

E=CFc(100/%CO2) 

where: 

E=emission rate of pollutant, ng/J (lb/million 

Btu). 

C=concentre tion of pollutant, hg/dscm (lb/ 

dscf)-

%COi=carbon dioxide concentration, 

percent dry basis. 

Fc=factor as determined in appropriate 

sections of Method 19. 

(ii) If and only if the average Fc factor 

in Method 19 is used to calculate E and 

eitiier E is from 0.97 to 1.00 of the 

emission standard or the relative 

accuracy of a continuous emission 

monitoring system is from 17 to 20 

percent, then three runs of Mediod 3 

shall be used to determine die O2 and 

CO2 concentration according to the 

procedures in paragraph (b) (2)(ii), 

(4)(ii), or (5)(ii) of this section. Then if F0 

(average of three runs), as calculated 

from die equation in Method 3, is more 

than ± 3 percent than tiie average Fo 

value, as determined from die average 

values of Fd and Fc in Method 19, i.e., 

FM=0.209 (Fda/FJ, then the following 

procedure shall be followed: 

(A) When F0 is less than 0.97 Foa, then 

E shall be increased by tiiat proportion 

under 0.97 Foa, e.g., if F0 is 0.95 Foa, E 

shall be increased by 2 percent. This 

recalculated value shall be used to 

determine compliance with.the emission 

standard. 

(B) When F„ is less than 0.97 FM and 

when the average difference (3) 

between the continuous monitor minus

dust suppression for particulate matter 

control, a visible mist is sometimes 

generated by the spray. The water mist 

must not be confused with particulate 

matter emissions and is not to be 

considered a visible emission. When a 

water mist of this nature is present, the 

observation of emissions is to be made 

at a point in the plume wherethe mist is 

no longer visible. 

(d) In determining compliance with 

§ 60.672(e), the owner or operator shall 

use Method 22 to determine fugitive 

emissions. The performance test shall be 

conducted while all affected facilities 

inside the building are operating. The 

performance.test foreaeh building shall 

be at least 75 minutes in duration; with 

each side of the. building arid the roof 

being observed for at least 15 minutes. 

(e) The owner or operator may use the' 

following as alternatives to the, 

" reference methods arid procedures 

specified in this section: 

(1) For the method and procedure of 

paragraph (c) of this section, if 

emissions from two or more facilities 

continuously interfere so that the 

opacity of fugitive emissions from an 

. individual affected facility cannot be 

read, either of the following procedures 

may be used: 

(i) Use for the combined emission 

stream the highest fugitive opacity 

standard applicable to any of the 

individual affected facilities contributing 

to the emissions stream. 

(ii) Separate the emissions so that the 

opacity of emissions from each affected 

facility can be read. 

(f) f o comply with § 60.676(d). the 

owner or operator shall record the 

measurements as required § 60.676(c) 

using the monitoring devices in § 60.674 

(a) and (b) during each particulate 

matter run and shall determine the 

averages. 

§60.676 [Amended] 

81. In § 60.676(d). the words "those 

measurements recorded" are revised to 

read "the averaged determined". 

82. Section 60.685 is revised to read as 

follows: 

§ 60.685 Test methods and procedures. 

(a) In conducting the performance 

tests required in § 60.8, the owner or 

operator shall.use as reference methods 

and procedures the test methods in 

Appendix A of diis part or other 

methods and procedures as specified in 

this section, except as provided in 

§ 60.8(b). 

(b) The owner or operator shall 

conduct performance tests while the 

product with the highest loss on ignition 

(LOI) expected to be produced.by the 

affected facility is being manufactured. 

(c) The owner or operator shall 

determine compliance with the 

particulate matter standard in § 60.682 

as follows: 

(1) The emission rate (E) of particulate 

matter shall be computed for each run 

using the following equation:

(2) Method 5E shall be used to 

determine die particulateinatter 

concentration (CJ and the. volumetric 

flow fate (Qai) of the effluent gas. The 

sampling, time and sample volume shall 

be at least 120 minutes and 2.55 dscm 

(90dscf). 

(3) The average glass pull rate (P.,-,) 

for the manufacturing line shall be the 

arithmetic average of three glass pull 

rate (PJ determinations taken at 

intervals of at least 30 minutes during 

each run. 

The individual glass pull rates (PJ shall 

be computed using the following 

equation:
