a) Outlet stack refers to sampling locations in the control device outlet. Inlet refers to sampling locations in

the ducts(s) upstream of the control device

.

b) For Method 5 testing only, you may choose to collect less tha n 4 cubic meters per run provided that the

filterable mass collected (e.g., net filter mass plus mass of nozzle, probe and filte r holder rinses) is equal to

or greater than 10 m g. If the total mass collected for two or thr ee of the runs is less than 10 m g, you must

conduct at least one additional test run that produces at least 10 m g of filterable mass collected (i.e., at a

great er sample volume). Report the results of all test runs.
