GENERAL
OPERATIONAL
LIMITATIONS
3.
To
ensure
air
contaminants
are
dispersed
vertically,
any
rain
protection
devices
installed
on
the
emission
exhaust
stacks
shall
not
restrict
or
obstruct

discharge.

4.
Future

pipes,
fittings,
and
valves
shall
be
limited
as
follows:

A.
New
and
reworked
underground
process
pipelines
shall
contain
no
buried
valves
such
that
fugitive
emission
monitoring
is
rendered
impractical.

B.
To
the
extent
that
good
engineering
practice
will
permit,
new
and
reworked
valves
and
piping
connections
shall
be
so
located
to
be
reasonably
accessible
for
leak­
checking
during
plant
operation.
Non­
accessible
valves
shall
be
identified
in
a
list
to
be
made
available
upon
request.

C.
New
and
reworked
piping
connections
shall
be
welded
or
flanged.
Screwed
connections
are
permissible
only
on
piping
smaller
than
two­
inch
diameter.
No
later
than
the
next
scheduled
quarterly
monitoring
period
after
initial
installation
or
replacement,
all
new
or
reworked
connections
shall
be
gas­
tested
or
hydraulically­
tested
at
no
less
than
normal
operating
pressure
and
adjustments
made
as
necessary
to
obtain
leak­
free
performance.
Flanges
shall
be
inspected
by
visual,
audible,
and/
or
olfactory
means
at
least
weekly
by
operating
personnel
walk­
through.

D.
Each
open­
ended
valve
or
line
shall
be
equipped
with
a
cap,
blind
flange,
plug,
or
a
second
valve.

E.
Accessible
valves
shall
be
monitored
by
leak­
checking
for
fugitive
emissions
at
least
quarterly
using
an
approved
gas
analyzer.
Sealless/
leakless
valves
(
including,
but
not
limited
to,
bellows
and
diaphragm
valves)
and
relief
valves
equipped
with
a
rupture
disc
upstream
or
venting
to
a
control
device
are
not
required
to
be
monitored.
For
valves
equipped
with
rupture
discs,
a
pressure
gauge
shall
be
installed
between
the
relief
valve
and
rupture
disc
to
monitor
disc
integrity.
All
leaking
discs
shall
be
replaced
at
the
earliest
opportunity
but
no
later
than
the
next
process
shutdown.

F.
Except
as
may
be
provided
for
in
the
special
conditions
of
this
permit,
all
pump
and
compressor
seals
shall
be
monitored
with
an
approved
gas
analyzer
at
least
quarterly
or
be
equipped
with
a
shaft
sealing
system
that
prevents
or
detects
emissions
of
VOC
from
the
seal.
Seal
systems
designed
and
operated
to
prevent
emissions
or
seals
equipped
with
an
automatic
seal
failure
detection
and
alarm
system
need
not
be
monitored.
Seal
systems
that
prevent
emissions
may
include
(
but
are
not
limited
to)
dual
pump
seals
with
barrier
fluid
at
higher
pressure
than
process
pressure
or
seals
degassing
to
vent
control
systems
kept
in
good
working
order.

Submerged
pumps
or
sealless
pumps
(
including,
but
not
limited
to,
diaphragm,
canned,
or
magnetic
driven
pumps)
may
be
used
to
satisfy
the
requirements
of
this
condition
and
need
not
be
monitored.

G.
Damaged
or
leaking
valves,
flanges,
compressor
seals,
and
pump
seals
found
to
be
emitting
VOC
in
excess
of
10,000
parts
per
million
by
volume
or
found
by
visual
inspection
to
be
leaking
(
e.
g.,
dripping
liquids)
shall
be
tagged
and
replaced
or
repaired.
Every
reasonable
effort
shall
be
made
to
repair
a
leaking
component
as
specified
in
this
paragraph
within
15
days
after
the
leak
is
found.
If
the
repair
of
a
component
would
require
a
unit
shutdown,
the
repair
may
be
delayed
until
the
next
scheduled
shutdown.
All
leaking
components
which
cannot
be
repaired
until
a
scheduled
shutdown
shall
be
identified
for
such
repair
by
tagging.
The
TNRCC
Executive
Director,
at
his
discretion,
may
require
early
unit
shutdown
or
other
appropriate
action
based
on
the
number
and
severity
of
tagged
leaks
awaiting
shutdown.

H.
The
results
of
the
required
fugitive
monitoring
and
maintenance
program
shall
be
made
available
to
the
TNRCC
Executive
Director
or
his
designated
representative
upon
request.
Records
shall
indicate
appropriate
dates,
test
methods,
instrument
readings,
repair
results,
and
corrective
actions
taken.
Records
of
flange
inspections
are
not
required
unless
a
leak
is
detected.
