STANDARDS AND REGULATIONS

State Performance Standards for Specific Existing Sources

CHAPTER 4

Section 1. I ntroduction to state performance standards for specific existing

sources.

(a) This chapter establishes state performance standards for specific existing sources. Most of the sections under this chapter were required by the Environmental Protection Agency under section 111(d) of the Clean Air Act. Each of the standards

listed has an accompanying New Source Performance Standard (NSPS) under Chapter 5, Section 2 which applies to new sources. Section 6 incorporates by reference all Code of Federal Regulations (CFRs) cited in this chapter, including their Appendices.

Section 2. Existing sulfuric acid production units.

(a) Sulfuric Acid M ist. Any existing facility producing sulfuric acid by the contact process by burning elemental sulfur, alkylation acid, hydrogen sulfide, organic sulfides, mercaptans, or acid sludge shall lim it the atmospheric discharge of acid mist in the effluent to not more than 0.50 pounds per ton of acid produced (0.25 kgm per metric ton)

-- maximum 2

- hour average, expressed as H 2 SO 4 . Reference method: Method 8, Appendix A, 40 CFR part 60 or an equivalent method.

(b) Sulfur D ioxide. Any existing facility producing sulfuric acid by the contact process by burning elemental sulfur, alkylation acid, hydrogen sulfide, organic sulfides, mercaptans, or acid sludge shall limit the atmospheric discharge of sulf ur dioxide in the effluent to not more than 2,000 ppm

-- maximum 2

- hour average.

Section 3. Existing nitric acid manufacturing plants.

(a) The emission of nitrogen oxides from existing nitric acid manufacturing plants, calculated as nitrogen dioxide sh all be limited to 5.5 pounds per ton (2.8 kilograms per metric ton) of acid produced, maximum 2

- hour average.

Section 4. Existing municipal solid waste landfills.

(a) Definitions. For purposes of this section:

(i) The term “Municipal solid waste landfill” shall mean the entire disposal facility in a contiguous geographical space where household waste, commercial solid waste, nonhazardous sludge, conditionally exempt small quantity generator waste,4

- 2 or industrial solid waste is placed in or on land . Portions of the municipal solid waste landfill may be separated by access roads. A municipal solid waste landfill may be publicly or privately owned. A municipal solid waste landfill may be a new landfill, an existing landfill, or a lateral expansion.

(ii) The term “Existing municipal solid waste landfill” shall mean a municipal solid waste landfill that commenced construction, reconstruction or modification before May 30, 1991. An existing municipal solid waste landfill may be active or closed. Physical or operational changes made to an existing municipa l solid waste landfill solely to comply with the emission limits are not considered a modification

or reconstruction.

(b) Chapter 6, Section 3 applicability:

(i) For purposes of obtaining an operating permit under Section 30, the

owner or operator o f a MSW landfill subject to this section with a design capacity less than 2.5 million megagrams or 2.5 million cubic meters is not subject to the requirement to obtain an operating permit for the landfill under Chapter 6, Section 3. For purposes of

submit ting a timely application for an operating permit under Chapter 6, Section 3, the owner or operator of a MSW landfill subject to this section with a design capacity greater than or equal to 2.5 million megagrams and 2.5 million cubic meters on July 31, 199 8 and not otherwise subject to Chapter 6, Section 3, becomes subject to the requirements of Chapter 6, Section 3(c)(i)(A) on October 29, 1998.
