FACILITY DESCRIPTION

The Cheswick Generating Station is an electric generating facility located on Pittsburgh and Porter Streets in Springdale, PA.  The plant is composed of one main boiler exhausting to one stack, which fires coal or synfuel as the primary fuel and natural gas as an auxiliary fuel for startup, shutdown, and at the operators' discretion. Pollution control equipment for the main boiler includes low NOx burners with separated overfire air, electrostatic precipitation with flue gas conditioning, selective catalytic reduction, and Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD).  The plant also has a No. 2 oil fired auxiliary boiler which exhausts to a separate stack.  The facility is a major source of sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen oxides (NOX), particulate matter (PM), particulate matter less than 10 microns in diameter. (PM-10), particulate matter less than 2.5 microns in diameter (PM-2.5), carbon monoxide emissions (CO), volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and hazardous air pollutants (HAPs); as defined in of Article XXI § 2101.20. The facility is also subject to the acid rain regulations. The emission units regulated by this permit are summarized in Table II-1:

                             DECLARATION OF POLICY

Pollution prevention is recognized as the preferred strategy (over pollution control) for reducing risk to air resources. Accordingly, pollution prevention measures should be integrated into air pollution control programs wherever possible, and the adoption by sources of cost-effective compliance strategies, incorporating pollution prevention, is encouraged. The Department will give expedited consideration to any permit modification request based on pollution prevention principles.

The permittee is subject to the terms and conditions set forth below. These terms and conditions constitute provisions of Allegheny County Health Department Rules and Regulations, Article XXI Air Pollution Control. The subject equipment has been conditionally approved, for operation. The equipment shall be operated in conformity with the plans, specifications, conditions, and instructions which are part of your application, and may be periodically inspected for compliance by the Department. In the event that the terms and conditions of this permit or the applicable provisions of Article XXI conflict with the application for this permit, these terms and conditions and the applicable provisions of Article XXI shall prevail. Additionally, nothing in this permit relieves the permittee from the obligation to comply with all applicable Federal, State and Local laws and regulations.

The provisions of 40 CFR subpart OOO are applicable to the following affected facilities in fixed nonmetallic mineral processing plants: each crusher, grinding mill, screening operation, bucket elevator, belt conveyor, bagging operation, storage bin, enclosed truck or railcar loading station. (§60.670(a)(1))

On and after the date on which the performance test required to be conducted by condition V.I.2.a below is completed, the permittee shall not cause to be discharged into the atmosphere from any transfer point on belt conveyors or from any other affected facility any stack emissions which: (§60.672(a))
 
 Contain particulate matter in excess of 0.05 g/dscm (0.022 gr/dscf); and 
  Exhibit greater than 7 percent opacity.

On and after the sixtieth day after achieving the maximum production rate at which the limestone handling system will be operated, but not later than 180 days after initial startup as required under condition V.I.2.f below, the permittee shall not cause to be discharged into the atmosphere from any transfer point on belt conveyors or from any other affected facility any fugitive emissions which exhibit greater than 10 percent opacity, except as provided in conditions V.I.1.k below and (e). (§60.672(b))

Truck dumping of nonmetallic minerals into any screening operation, feed hopper, or crusher is exempt from the requirements of conditions V.I.1.i. and V.I.1.j above. (§60.672(d))
 
If any transfer point on a conveyor belt or any other affected facility is enclosed in a building, then each enclosed affected facility must comply with the emission limits in conditions V.I.1.i. and V.I.1.j above, or the building enclosing the affected facility or facilities must comply with the following emission limits: (§60.672(e))
 
 The permittee shall not cause to be discharged into the atmosphere from any building enclosing any transfer point on a conveyor belt or any other affected facility any visible fugitive emissions except emissions from a vent as defined in 40 CFR §60.671.
             
 The permittee shall not cause to be discharged into the atmosphere from any vent of any building enclosing any transfer point on a conveyor belt or any other affected facility emissions which exceed the stack emissions limits in condition V.I.1.i above.
       
On and after the sixtieth day after achieving the maximum production rate at which the affected facility will be operated, but not later than 180 days after initial startup as required under condition V.I.2.f below, the permittee shall not cause to be discharged into the atmosphere from any baghouse that controls emissions from only an individual, enclosed storage bin, stack emissions which exhibit greater than 7 percent opacity. (§60.672(f))

The opacity standards set forth above shall apply at all times except during periods of startup, shutdown, malfunction, and as otherwise provided in this permit. (§60.11(c))
 
At all times, including periods of startup, shutdown, and malfunction, the permittee shall, to the extent practicable, maintain and operate any affected facility including associated air pollution control equipment in a manner consistent with good air pollution control practice for minimizing emissions. Determination of whether acceptable operating and maintenance procedures are being used will be based on information available to the Department which shall include, but is not limited to, monitoring results, opacity observations, review of operating and maintenance procedures, and inspection of the source. (§60.11(d))

Testing Requirements  
 
Within 60 days after achieving the maximum production rate at which the affected facility will be operated, but not later than 180 days after initial startup of such facility and at such other times as may be required by the Department, the permittee of such facility shall conduct performance test(s) and furnish the Department a written report of the results of such performance test(s). (§60.8(a))
 
Performance tests shall be conducted under such conditions as the Department shall specify to the permittee based on representative performance of the affected facility. The permittee shall make available to the Department such records as may be necessary to determine the conditions of the performance tests. Operations during periods of startup, shutdown, and malfunction shall not constitute representative conditions for the purpose of a performance test nor shall emissions in excess of the level of the applicable emission limit during periods of startup, shutdown, and malfunction be considered a violation of the applicable emission limit unless otherwise specified in the applicable standard. (§60.8(c))
 
Each performance test shall consist of three separate runs using the applicable test method. Each run shall be conducted for the time and under the conditions specified in the applicable condition. For the purpose of determining compliance with an applicable standard, the arithmetic means of results of the three runs shall apply. In the event that a sample is accidentally lost or conditions occur in which one of the three runs must be discontinued because of forced shutdown, failure of an irreplaceable portion of the sample train, extreme meteorological conditions, or other circumstances, beyond the permittee's control, compliance may, upon the Department's approval, be determined using the arithmetic mean of the results of the two other runs. (§60.8(f))
 
In conducting the performance tests required in condition V.I.2.a above, the permittee shall use as reference methods and procedures the test methods in appendix A of 40 CFR Part 60 or other methods and procedures as specified in this section.  Acceptable alternative methods and procedures are given in condition V.I.2.m below. (§60.675(a))
 
Compliance with opacity standards in V.I.2 shall be determined by conducting observations in accordance with Method 9 in appendix A of 40 CFR part 60 or any alternative method that is approved by the Department. For purposes of determining initial compliance, the minimum total time of observations shall be 3 hours (30 6-minute averages) for the performance test or other set of observations (meaning those fugitive-type emission sources subject only to an opacity standard). (§60.11(b))
 
For the purpose of demonstrating initial compliance, opacity observations shall be conducted concurrently with the initial performance test required in condition V.I.2.a above unless one of the following conditions apply. If no performance test under condition V.I.2.a above is required, then opacity observations shall be conducted within 60 days after achieving the maximum production rate at which the affected facility will be operated but no later than 180 days after initial startup of the facility. If visibility or other conditions prevent the opacity observations from being conducted concurrently with the initial performance test required under condition V.I.2.a above, the permittee shall reschedule the opacity observations as soon after the initial performance test as possible, but not later than 30 days thereafter, and shall advise the Department of the rescheduled date. In these cases, the notification to the Department is as required in condition V.I.2.n below. The rescheduled opacity observations shall be conducted (to the extent possible) under the same operating conditions that existed during the initial performance test conducted under condition V.I.2.a above. The visible emissions observer shall determine whether visibility or other conditions prevent the opacity observations from being made concurrently with the initial performance test in accordance with procedures contained in Method 9 of appendix B of 40 CFR Part 60. Opacity readings of portions of plumes which contain condensed, uncombined water vapor shall not be used for purposes of determing compliance with opacity standards. The permittee of an affected facility shall make available, upon request by the Department, such records as may be necessary to determine the conditions under which the visual observations were made and shall provide evidence indicating proof of current visible observer emission certification. (§60.11(e)(1))
 
The permittee of an affected facility to which an opacity standard in this part applies shall conduct opacity observations in accordance with condition V.I.2.e above, shall record the opacity of emissions, and shall report to the Department the opacity results along with the results of the initial performance test required under condition V.I.2.a above. The inability of a permittee to secure a visible emissions observer shall not be considered a reason for not conducting the opacity observations concurrent with the initial performance test. (§60.11(e)(2))
 
The permittee shall determine compliance with the particulate matter standards in condition V.I.1.i above as follows: (§60.675(b))
       
  Method 5 or Method 17 shall be used to determine the particulate matter concentration. The sample volume shall be at least 1.70 dscm (60 dscf). For Method 5, if the gas stream being sampled is at ambient temperature, the sampling probe and filter may be operated without heaters. If the gas stream is above ambient temperature, the sampling probe and filter may be operated at a temperature high enough, but no higher than 121 °C (250 °F), to prevent water condensation on the filter.

 Method 9 and the procedures in conditions V.I.2.e, V.I.2.f and V.I.2.g above shall be used to determine opacity.

In determining compliance with the particulate matter standards in condition V.I.1.j above, the owner or operator shall use Method 9 and the procedures in §60.11, with the following additions: (§60.675(c)(1))
       
 The minimum distance between the observer and the emission source shall be 4.57 meters (15 feet).
             
 The observer shall, when possible, select a position that minimizes interference from other fugitive emission sources (e.g., road dust). The required observer position relative to the sun (Method 9, Section 2.1) must be followed.
 
 For affected facilities using wet 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 where the mist is no longer visible.
 
In determining compliance with the opacity of stack emissions from any baghouse that controls emissions only from an individual enclosed storage bin under condition V.I.1.m above, using Method 9, the duration of the Method 9 observations shall be 1 hour (ten 6-minute averages). (§60.675(c)(2))

When determining compliance with the fugitive emissions standard for any affected facility described under condition V.I.1.j above, the duration of the Method 9 observations may be reduced from 3 hours (thirty 6-minute averages) to 1 hour (ten 6-minute averages) only if the following conditions apply: (§60.675(c)(3))
 
 There are no individual readings greater than 10 percent opacity; and 
             
 There are no more than 3 readings of 10 percent for the 1-hour period. 

In determining compliance with condition V.I.1.l above, the permittee 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 for each building shall be at least 75 minutes in duration, with each side of the building and the roof being observed for at least 15 minutes. (§60.675(d))

The permittee may use the following as alternatives to the reference methods and procedures specified conditions V.I.2.i, V.I.2.j and V.I.2.k above 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: (§60.675(e))
              
 Use for the combined emission stream the highest fugitive opacity standard applicable to any of the individual affected facilities contributing to the emissions stream.

Testing Requirements  
             
If the permitee does not qualify as a LEE for total non-mercury HAP metals, individual non-mcercury HAP metals, or filterable particulate matter (PM), then the permittee must demonstrate compliance through an intitial performance test and must monitor continuous permformace through either use of a particulate matter continuous parametric monitoring system (PM CPMS), or, for an existing EGU, compliance performance testing repeated quarterly. The permittee shall comply with the following requirements in Table V.M.2 for establishing operating limits if the PM CPMS option is selected. (§63.10000(c)(1)(iv), Table 6  of 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU)

Install, certify, maintain, and operate a PM CPMS for monitoring emissions discharged to the atmosphere according to §63.10010(g)(1)
Establish a site-specific operating limit in units of PM CPMS output signal (e.g., milliamps, mg/acm, or other raw signal)
Data from the PM CPMS and the PM or HAP metals performance tests
1. Collect PM CPMS output data during the entire period of the performance tests.

2. Record the average hourly PM CPMS output for each test run in the three run performance test.

3. Determine the highest 1-hour average PM CPMS measured during the performance test demonstrating compliance with the filterable PM or HAP metals emissions limitations.

             
             
The permittee shall demonstrate that compliance has been achieved, by conducting the required performance tests and other activities, no later than 180 days after April 16, 2015.  (§63.9984(f), (§63.10011(a))
             
General requirements. For each of the permittee's affected EGUs, the permittee shall demonstrate initial compliance with each applicable emissions limit in Table 1 or 2 of this subpart through performance testing. Where two emissions limits are specified for a particular pollutant (e.g., a heat input-based limit in lb/MMBtu and an electrical output-based limit in lb/MWh), the permittee shall demonstrate compliance with either emission limit. For a particular compliance demonstration, the permittee may be required to conduct one or more of the following activities in conjunction with performance testing: collection of hourly electrical load data (megawatts); establishment of operating limits according to §63.10011 and Tables 4 and 7 to this subpart; and CMS performance evaluations. In all cases, the permittee shall demonstrate initial compliance no later than the applicable date in paragraph (f) of this section for tune-up work practices for existing EGUs, in §63.9984 for other requirements for existing EGUs, and in paragraph (g) of this section for all requirements for new EGUs. .  (§63.10005(a))
 To demonstrate initial compliance with an applicable emissions limit in Table 1 or 2 to this subpart using stack testing, the initial performance test generally consists of three runs at specified process operating conditions using approved methods. If the permittee is required to establish operating limits (see paragraph (d) of this section and Table 4 to this subpart), the permittee shall collect all applicable parametric data during the performance test period. Also, if the permittee chooses to comply with an electrical output-based emission limit, the permittee shall collect hourly electrical load data during the test period. (§63.10005(a)(1))
 To demonstrate initial compliance using either a CMS that measures HAP concentrations directly ( i.e. , an Hg, HCl, or HF CEMS, or a sorbent trap monitoring system) or an SO2or PM CEMS, the initial performance test consists of 30 boiler operating days of data collected by the initial compliance demonstration date specified in §63.10005 with the certified monitoring system. (§63.10005(a)(2))
 The 30-boiler operating day CMS performance test shall demonstrate compliance with the applicable Hg, HCl, HF, PM, or SO2emissions limit in Table 1 or 2 to this subpart.
 If the permittee chooses to comply with an electrical output-based emission limit, the permittee shall collect hourly electrical load data during the performance test period.
                   
Performance testing requirements. If the permittee chooses to use performance testing to demonstrate initial compliance with the applicable emissions limits in Tables 1 and 2 to this subpart for the permittee's EGUs, the permittee shall conduct the tests according to §63.10007 and Table 5 to this subpart. For the purposes of the initial compliance demonstration, the permittee may use test data and results from a performance test conducted prior to the date on which compliance is required as specified in §63.9984, provided that the following conditions are fully met: (§63.10005(b))
 For a performance test based on stack test data, the test was conducted no more than 12 calendar months prior to the date on which compliance is required as specified in §63.9984; (§63.10005(b)(1))
 For a performance test based on data from a certified CEMS or sorbent trap monitoring system, the test consists of all valid CMS data recorded in the 30 boiler operating days immediately preceding that date; (§63.10005(b)(2))
 The performance test was conducted in accordance with all applicable requirements in §63.10007 and Table 5 to this subpart; (§63.10005(b)(3))
 A record of all parameters needed to convert pollutant concentrations to units of the emission standard (e.g., stack flow rate, diluent gas concentrations, hourly electrical loads) is available for the entire performance test period; and (§63.10005(b)(4))
 For each performance test based on stack test data, the permittee certifies, and keeps documentation demonstrating, that the EGU configuration, control devices, and fuel(s) have remained consistent with conditions since the prior performance test was conducted. (§63.10005(b)(5))
                   
The permittee shall comply with the following requirements in Table V.M.3 for performance testing:. (§63.10007 Table 5 of 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU)
             
                                  TABLE V.M.3

[3]Incorporated by reference, see §63.14.
             
             
The permittee may conduct the initial performance testing in accordance with §63.10005(h), to determine whether the unit qualifies as a low emitting EGU (LEE) for one or more applicable emissions limits. (§63.10000(c)(1)(i))
 For a qualifying LEE for Hg emissions limits, the permittee shall conduct a 30-day performance test using Method 30B at least once every 12 calendar months to demonstrate continued LEE status. (§63.10000(c)(1)(ii))
 For a qualifying LEE of any other applicable emissions limits, the permittee shall conduct a performance test at least once every 36 calendar months to demonstrate continued LEE status. (§63.10000(c)(1)(iii))
 If the permittee's coal-fired EGU does not qualify as a LEE for total non-mercury HAP metals, individual non-mercury HAP metals, or filterable particulate matter (PM), the permittee shall demonstrate compliance through an initial performance test and the permittee shall monitor continuous performance through either use of a particulate matter continuous parametric monitoring system (PM CPMS), a PM CEMS, or compliance performance testing repeated quarterly. (§63.10000(c)(1)(iv))
 If the permittee's coal-fired EGU does not qualify as a LEE for hydrogen chloride (HCl), the permittee may demonstrate initial and continuous compliance through use of an HCl CEMS, installed and operated in accordance with Appendix B to this subpart. As an alternative to HCl CEMS, the permittee may demonstrate initial and continuous compliance by conducting an initial and periodic quarterly performance stack test for HCl. If the permittee's EGU uses wet or dry flue gas desulfurization technology (this includes limestone injection into a fluidized bed combustion unit), the permittee may apply a second alternative to HCl CEMS by installing and operating a sulfur dioxide (SO2) CEMS installed and operated in accordance with part 75 of this chapter to demonstrate compliance with the applicable SO2emissions limit. (§63.10000(c)(1)(v))
 If the permittee's coal-fired EGU does not qualify as a LEE for Hg, the permittee shall demonstrate initial and continuous compliance through use of a Hg CEMS or a sorbent trap monitoring system, in accordance with appendix A to this subpart. (§63.10000(c)(1)(vi))
 (A) You may choose to use separate sorbent trap monitoring systems to comply with this subpart: One sorbent trap monitoring system to demonstrate compliance with the numeric mercury emissions limit during periods other than startup or shutdown and the other sorbent trap monitoring system to report average mercury concentration during startup periods or shutdown periods. (§63.10000(c)(1)(vi)(A))
 (B) You may choose to use one sorbent trap monitoring system to demonstrate compliance with the mercury emissions limit at all times (including startup periods and shutdown periods) and to report average mercury concentration. You must follow the startup or shutdown requirements that follow and as given in Table 3 to this subpart for each coal-fired, liquid oil-fired, or solid oil-derived fuel-fired EGU. (§63.10000(c)(1)(vi)(B))
                
Low emitting EGUs. The provisions of this paragraph (h) apply to pollutants with emissions limits from new EGUs except Hg and to all pollutants with emissions limits from existing EGUs. The permittee may not pursue this compliance option if the permittee's existing EGU is equipped with an acid gas scrubber and has a main stack and bypass stack exhaust configuration. (§63.10005(h))
             
 An EGU may qualify for low emitting EGU (LEE) status for Hg, HCl, HF, filterable PM, total non-Hg HAP metals, or individual non-Hg HAP metals if the permittee collects performance test data that meet the requirements of this paragraph (h), and if those data demonstrate: (§63.10005(h)(1))
 For all pollutants except Hg, performance test emissions results less than 50 percent of the applicable emissions limits in Table 1 or 2 to this subpart for all required testing for 3 consecutive years; or
 For Hg emissions from an existing EGU, either:
 Average emissions less than 10 percent of the applicable Hg emissions limit in Table 2 to this subpart (expressed either in units of lb/TBtu or lb/GWh); or
 Potential Hg mass emissions of 29.0 or fewer pounds per year and compliance with the applicable Hg emission limit in Table 2 to this subpart (expressed either in units of lb/TBtu or lb/GWh).
 For all pollutants except Hg, the permittee shall conduct all required performance tests described in §63.10007 to demonstrate that a unit qualifies for LEE status. (§63.10005(h)(2))
 When conducting emissions testing to demonstrate LEE status, the permittee shall increase the minimum sample volume specified in Table 1 or 2 nominally by a factor of two.
 Follow the instructions in §63.10007(e) and Table 5 to this subpart to convert the test data to the units of the applicable standard.
 For Hg, the permittee shall conduct a 30-boiler operating day performance test using Method 30B in appendix A - 8 to part 60 of this chapter to determine whether a unit qualifies for LEE status. Locate the Method 30B sampling probe tip at a point within the 10 percent centroidal area of the duct at a location that meets Method 1 in appendix A - 1 to part 60 of this chapter and conduct at least three nominally equal length test runs over the 30-boiler operating day test period. You may use a pair of sorbent traps to sample the stack gas for a period consistent with that given in section 5.2.1 of appendix A to this subpart. Collect Hg emissions data continuously over the entire test period (except when changing sorbent traps or performing required reference method QA procedures). As an alternative to constant rate sampling per Method 30B, you may use proportional sampling per section 8.2.2 of Performance Specification 12 B in appendix B to part 60 of this chapter.. (§63.10005(h)(3))
 Depending on whether the permittee intends to assess LEE status for Hg in terms of the lb/TBtu or lb/GWh emission limit in Table 2 to this subpart or in terms of the annual Hg mass emissions limit of 29.0 lb/year, the permittee will have to collect some or all of the following data during the 30-boiler operating day test period (see paragraph (h)(3)(iii) of this section):
 Diluent gas (CO2or O2) data, using either Method 3A in appendix A - 3 to part 60 of this chapter or a diluent gas monitor that has been certified according to part 75 of this chapter.
 Stack gas flow rate data, using either Method 2, 2F, or 2G in appendices A - 1 and A - 2 to part 60 of this chapter, or a flow rate monitor that has been certified according to part 75 of this chapter.
 Stack gas moisture content data, using either Method 4 in appendix A - 1 to part 60 of this chapter, or a moisture monitoring system that has been certified according to part 75 of this chapter. Alternatively, an appropriate fuel-specific default moisture value from §75.11(b) of this chapter may be used in the calculations or the permittee may petition the Administrator or the Department under §75.66 of this chapter for use of a default moisture value for non-coal-fired units.
 Hourly electrical load data (megawatts), from facility records.
 If the permittee uses CEMS to measure CO2(or O2) concentration, and/or flow rate, and/or moisture, record hourly average values of each parameter throughout the 30-boiler operating day test period. If the permittee opts to use EPA reference methods rather than CEMS for any parameter, the permittee shall perform at least one representative test run on each operating day of the test period, using the applicable reference method.
 Calculate the average Hg concentration, in ug/m[3] (dry basis), for the 30-boiler operating day performance test, as the arithmetic average of all Method 30B sorbent trap results. Also calculate, as applicable, the average values of CO2or O2concentration, stack gas flow rate, stack gas moisture content, and electrical load for the test period. Then:
 To express the test results in units of lb/TBtu, follow the procedures in §63.10007(e). Use the average Hg concentration and diluent gas values in the calculations.
 To express the test results in units of lb/GWh, use Equations A - 3 and A - 4 in section 6.2.2 of appendix A to this subpart, replacing the hourly values "Ch", "Qh", "Bws" and "(MW)h" with the average values of these parameters from the performance test.
 To calculate pounds of Hg per year, use one of the following methods:
 Multiply the average lb/TBtu Hg emission rate (determined according to paragraph (h)(3)(iii)(A) of this section) by the maximum potential annual heat input to the unit (TBtu), which is equal to the maximum rated unit heat input (TBtu/hr) times 8,760 hours. If the maximum rated heat input value is expressed in units of MMBtu/hr, multiply it by 10[−6]to convert it to TBtu/hr; or
 Multiply the average lb/GWh Hg emission rate (determined according to paragraph (h)(3)(iii)(B) of this section) by the maximum potential annual electricity generation (GWh), which is equal to the maximum rated electrical output of the unit (GW) times 8,760 hours. If the maximum rated electrical output value is expressed in units of MW, multiply it by 10[−3]to convert it to GW; or
 If an EGU has a federally-enforceable permit limit on either the annual heat input or the number of annual operating hours, the permittee may modify the calculations in paragraph (h)(3)(iii)(C)(1) of this section by replacing the maximum potential annual heat input or 8,760 unit operating hours with the permit limit on annual heat input or operating hours (as applicable).
 For a group of affected units that vent to a common stack, the permittee may either assess LEE status for the units individually by performing a separate emission test of each unit in the duct leading from the unit to the common stack, or the permittee may perform a single emission test in the common stack. If the permittee chooses the common stack testing option, the units in the configuration qualify for LEE status if:
 The emission rate measured at the common stack is less than 50 percent (10 percent for Hg) of the applicable emission limit in Table 1 or 2 to this subpart; or
 For Hg from an existing EGU, the applicable Hg emission limit in Table 2 to this subpart is met and the potential annual mass emissions, calculated according to paragraph (h)(3)(iii) of this section (with some modifications), are less than or equal to 29.0 pounds times the number of units sharing the common stack. Base the permittee's calculations on the combined heat input capacity of all units sharing the stack ( i.e. , either the combined maximum rated value or, if applicable, a lower combined value restricted by permit conditions or operating hours).

For coal-fired EGUs using PM CPMS to monitor continuous performance with an applicable emission limit as provided for under §63.10000(c), the permittee shall conduct all applicable performance tests according to Table 5 to this subpart and §63.10007 at least every year. (§63.10006(a))

For a meeting the LEE requirements of §63.10005(h), the permittee shall repeat the performance test once every 3 years (once every year for Hg) according to Table 5 and §63.10007. Should subsequent emissions testing results show the unit does not meet the LEE eligibility requirements, LEE status is lost. If this should occur: (§63.10006(b))

 For all pollutant emission limits except for Hg, the permittee shall conduct emissions testing quarterly, except as otherwise provided in §63.10021(d)(1). (§63.10006(b)(1))
 For Hg, the permittee shall install, certify, maintain, and operate a Hg CEMS or a sorbent trap monitoring system in accordance with appendix A to this subpart, within 6 calendar months of losing LEE eligibility. Until the Hg CEMS or sorbent trap monitoring system is installed, certified, and operating, the permittee shall conduct Hg emissions testing quarterly, except as otherwise provided in §63.10021(d)(1). The permittee shall have 3 calendar years of testing and CEMS or sorbent trap monitoring system data that satisfy the LEE emissions criteria to reestablish LEE status. (§63.10006(b)(2), §63.10006(c))
             
Except where paragraph (b) of this section applies, for coal-fired EGUs that do not use either an HCl CEMS to monitor compliance with the HCl limit or an SO2CEMS to monitor compliance with the alternate equivalent SO2emission limit, the permittee shall conduct all applicable periodic HCl emissions tests according to Table 5 to this subpart and §63.10007 at least quarterly, except as otherwise provided in §63.10021(d)(1). (§63.10006(d))

Time between performance tests. (§63.10006(f))

 (1) Notwithstanding the provisions of §63.10021(d)(1), the requirements listed in paragraphs (g) and (h) of this section, and the requirements of paragraph (f)(3) of this section, you must complete performance tests for your EGU as follows:
 (i) At least 45 calendar days, measured from the test's end date, must separate performance tests conducted every quarter;
 (ii) For annual testing:
 (A) At least 320 calendar days, measured from the test's end date, must separate performance tests;
 (B) At least 320 calendar days, measured from the test's end date, must separate annual sorbent trap mercury testing for 30-boiler operating day LEE tests;
 (C) At least 230 calendar days, measured from the test's end date, must separate annual sorbent trap mercury testing for 90-boiler operating day LEE tests; and
 (iii) At least 1,050 calendar days, measured from the test's end date, must separate performance tests conducted every 3 years.
 (2) For units demonstrating compliance through quarterly emission testing, you must conduct a performance test in the 4th quarter of a calendar year if your EGU has skipped performance tests in the first 3 quarters of the calendar year.
 (3) If your EGU misses a performance test deadline due to being inoperative and if 168 or more boiler operating hours occur in the next test period, you must complete an additional performance test in that period as follows:
 (i) At least 15 calendar days must separate two performance tests conducted in the same quarter.
 (ii) At least 107 calendar days must separate two performance tests conducted in the same calendar year.
 (iii) At least 350 calendar days must separate two performance tests conducted in the same 3 year period.

If the permittee elects to demonstrate compliance using emissions averaging under §63.10009, the permittee shall continue to conduct performance stack tests at the appropriate frequency given in section (c) through (f) of this section. (§63.10006(g))

If a performance test on a non-mercury LEE shows emissions in excess of 50 percent of the emission limit and if the permittee chooses to reapply for LEE status, the permittee shall conduct performance tests at the appropriate frequency given in section (c) through (e) of this section for that pollutant until all performance tests over a consecutive 3-year period show compliance with the LEE criteria. (§63.10006(h))

Except as otherwise provided in this section, the permittee shall conduct all required performance tests according to §63.7(d), (e), (f), and (h). The permittee shall also develop a site-specific test plan according to the requirements in §63.7(c). (§63.10007(a))
 If the permittee uses CEMS (Hg, HCl, SO2, or other) to determine compliance with a 30-boiler operating day rolling average emission limit, the permittee shall collect quality- assured CEMS data for all unit operating conditions, including startup and shutdown (see §63.10011(g) and Table 3 to this subpart), except as otherwise provided in §63.10020(b). Emission rates determined during startup periods and shutdown periods (as defined in §63.10042) are not to be included in the compliance determinations, except as otherwise provided in §§63.10000(c)(1)(vi)(B) and 63.10005(a)(2)(iii). (§63.10007(a)(1))
 If the permittee conducts performance testing with test methods in lieu of continuous monitoring, operate the unit at maximum normal operating load conditions during each periodic (e.g., quarterly) performance test. Maximum normal operating load shall be generally between 90 and 110 percent of design capacity but should be representative of site specific normal operations during each test run. (§63.10007(a)(2))
 For establishing operating limits with particulate matter continuous parametric monitoring system (PM CPMS) to demonstrate compliance with a PM or non Hg metals emissions limit, operate the unit at maximum normal operating load conditions during the performance test period. Maximum normal operating load shall be generally between 90 and 110 percent of design capacity but should be representative of site specific normal operations during each test run. (§63.10007(a)(3))
                
The permittee shall conduct each performance test (including traditional 3-run stack tests, 30-boiler operating day tests based on CEMS data (or sorbent trap monitoring system data), and 30-boiler operating day Hg emission tests for LEE qualification) according to the requirements in Table 5 to this subpart. (§63.10007(b))
             
If the permittee chooses to comply with the filterable PM emission limit and demonstrate continuous performance using a PM CPMS for an applicable emission limit as provided for in §63.10000(c), the permittee shall also establish an operating limit according to §63.10011(b) and Tables 4 and 6 to this subpart. Should the permittee desire to have operating limits that correspond to loads other than maximum normal operating load, the permittee shall conduct testing at those other loads to determine the additional operating limits. (§63.10007(c))

Except for a 30-boiler operating day performance test based on CEMS (or sorbent trap monitoring system) data, where the concept of test runs does not apply, the permittee shall conduct a minimum of three separate test runs for each performance test, as specified in §63.7(e)(3). Each test run shall comply with the minimum applicable sampling time or volume specified in Table 1 or 2 to this subpart. Sections 63.10005(d) and (h), respectively, provide special instructions for conducting performance tests based on CEMS or sorbent trap monitoring systems, and for conducting emission tests for LEE qualification. (§63.10007(d))

To use the results of performance testing to determine compliance with the applicable emission limits in Table 1 or 2 to this subpart, proceed as follows: (§63.10007(e))
 Except for a 30-boiler operating day performance test based on CEMS (or sorbent trap monitoring system) data, if measurement results for any pollutant are reported as below the method detection level (e.g., laboratory analytical results for one or more sample components are below the method defined analytical detection level), the permittee shall use the method detection level as the measured emissions level for that pollutant in calculating compliance. The measured result for a multiple component analysis (e.g., analytical values for multiple Method 29 fractions both for individual HAP metals and for total HAP metals) may include a combination of method detection level data and analytical data reported above the method detection level. (§63.10007(e)(1))
 If the limits are expressed in lb/MMBtu or lb/TBtu, the permittee shall use the F-factor methodology and equations in sections 12.2 and 12.3 of EPA Method 19 in appendix A - 7 to part 60 of this chapter. In cases where an appropriate F-factor is not listed in Table 19 - 2 of Method 19, the permittee may use F-factors from Table 1 in section 3.3.5 of appendix F to part 75 of this chapter, or F-factors derived using the procedures in section 3.3.6 of appendix to part 75 of this chapter. Use the following factors to convert the pollutant concentrations measured during the initial performance tests to units of lb/scf, for use in the applicable Method 19 equations: (§63.10007(e)(2))
 Multiply SO2ppm by 1.66 x 10[−7];
 Multiply HCl ppm by 9.43 x 10[−8];
 Multiply HF ppm by 5.18 x 10[−8];
 Multiply HAP metals concentrations (mg/dscm) by 6.24 x 10[−8]; and
 Multiply Hg concentrations (ug/scm) by 6.24 x 10[−11].
                   
 To determine compliance with emission limits expressed in lb/MWh or lb/GWh, the permittee shall first calculate the pollutant mass emission rate during the performance test, in units of lb/h. For Hg, if a CEMS or sorbent trap monitoring system is used, use Equation A - 2 or A - 3 in appendix A to this subpart (as applicable). In all other cases, use an equation that has the general form of Equation A - 2 or A - 3, replacing the value of K with 1.66 x 10[−7]lb/scf-ppm for SO2, 9.43 x 10[−8]lb/scf-ppm for HCl (if an HCl CEMS is used), 5.18 x 10[−8]lb/scf-ppm for HF (if an HF CEMS is used), or 6.24 x 10[−8]lb-scm/mg-scf for HAP metals and for HCl and HF (when performance stack testing is used), and defining Chas the average SO2, HCl, or HF concentration in ppm, or the average HAP metals concentration in mg/dscm. This calculation requires stack gas volumetric flow rate (scfh) and (in some cases) moisture content data (see §§63.10005(h)(3) and 63.10010). Then, if the applicable emission limit is in units of lb/GWh, use Equation A - 4 in appendix A to this subpart to calculate the pollutant emission rate in lb/GWh. In this calculation, define (M)has the calculated pollutant mass emission rate for the performance test (lb/h), and define (MW)has the average electrical load during the performance test (megawatts). If the applicable emission limit is in lb/MWh rather than lb/GWh, omit the 10[3] term from Equation A - 4 to determine the pollutant emission rate in lb/MWh. (§63.10007(e)(3))
                
(f) If you elect to (or are required to) use CEMS to continuously monitor Hg, HCl, HF, SO2, or PM emissions (or, if applicable, sorbent trap monitoring systems to continuously collect Hg emissions data), the following default values are available for use in the emission rate calculations during startup periods or shutdown periods (as defined in §63.10042). For the purposes of this subpart, these default values are not considered to be substitute data.
 (1) Diluent cap values. If you use CEMS (or, if applicable, sorbent trap monitoring systems) to comply with a heat input-based emission rate limit, you may use the following diluent cap values for a startup or shutdown hour in which the measured CO2 concentration is below the cap value or the measured O2 concentration is above the cap value:
 (i) For an IGCC EGU, you may use 1% for CO2 or 19% for O2.
 (ii) For all other EGUs, you may use 5% for CO2 or 14% for O2.
 (2) Default gross output. If you use CEMS to continuously monitor Hg, HCl, HF, SO2, or PM emissions (or, if applicable, sorbent trap monitoring systems to continuously collect Hg emissions data), the following default value is available for use in the emission rate calculations during startup periods or shutdown periods (as defined in §63.10042). For the purposes of this subpart, this default value is not considered to be substitute data. For a startup or shutdown hour in which there is heat input to an affected EGU but zero gross output, you must calculate the pollutant emission rate using a value equivalent to 5% of the maximum sustainable gross output, expressed in megawatts, as defined in section 6.5.2.1(a)(1) of appendix A to part 75 of this chapter. This default gross output is either the nameplate capacity of the EGU or the highest gross output observed in at least four representative quarters of EGU operation. For a monitored common stack, the default gross output is used only when all EGUs are operating (i.e., combusting fuel) are in startup or shutdown mode, and have zero electrical generation. Under those conditions, a default gross output equal to 5% of the combined maximum sustainable gross output of the EGUs that are operating but have a total of zero gross output must be used to calculate the hourly gross output-based pollutant emissions rate.
                
Upon request, the permittee shall make available to the EPA Administrator or the Department such records as may be necessary to determine whether the performance tests have been done according to the requirements of this section. (§63.10007(g))
             
If the permittee is subject to an operating limit in Table 4 to this subpart, the permittee demonstrates initial compliance with HAP metals or filterable PM emission limit(s) through performance stack tests and the permittee elects to use a PM CPMS to demonstrate continuous performance, the permittee shall also establish a site-specific operating limit, in accordance with Table 4 to this subpart, §63.10007, and Table 6 to this subpart. The permittee may use only the parametric data recorded during successful performance tests ( i.e. , tests that demonstrate compliance with the applicable emissions limits) to establish an operating limit. (§63.10011(b))

(c)(1) If you use CEMS or sorbent trap monitoring systems to measure a HAP (e.g., Hg or HCl) directly, the initial performance test, shall consist of a 30-boiler operating day (or, for certain coal-fired, existing EGUs that use emissions averaging for Hg, a 90-boiler operating day) rolling average emissions rate obtained with a certified CEMS or sorbent trap system, expressed in units of the standard. If the monitoring system is certified prior to the applicable compliance date, the initial averaging period shall either begin with: The first boiler operating day on or after the compliance date; or 30 (or, if applicable, 90) boiler operating days prior to that date, as described in §63.10005(b). In all cases, the initial 30- or 90-boiler operating day averaging period must be completed on or before the date that compliance must be demonstrated, in accordance with §63.9984(f). Initial compliance is demonstrated if the results of the performance test meet the applicable emission limit in Table 1 or 2 to this subpart. (§63.10011(c)(1))

(2) For an EGU that uses a CEMS to measure SO2 or PM emissions for initial compliance, the initial performance test shall consist of a 30-boiler operating day average emission rate obtained with certified CEMS, expressed in units of the standard. If the monitoring system is certified prior to the applicable compliance date, the initial averaging period shall either begin with: The first boiler operating day on or after the compliance date; or 30 boiler operating days prior to that date, as described in §63.10005(b). In all cases, the initial 30- boiler operating day averaging period must be completed on or before the date that compliance must be demonstrated, in accordance with §63.9984(f). Initial compliance is demonstrated if the results of the performance test meet the applicable SO2 or PM emission limit in Table 1 or 2 to this subpart. (§63.10011(c)(2))

For candidate LEE units, use the results of the performance testing described in §63.10005(h) to determine initial compliance with the applicable emission limit(s) in Table 1 or 2 to this subpart and to determine whether the unit qualifies for LEE status. (§63.10011(d))

The permittee shall submit a Notification of Compliance Status containing the results of the initial compliance demonstration, according to §63.10030(e). (§63.10011(e))

When the permittee is required to conduct a performance test, the permittee shall submit a Notification of Intent to conduct a performance test at least 30 days before the performance test is scheduled to begin. (§63.10030(d))

If the permittee demonstrates compliance with any applicable emissions limit through use of a continuous monitoring system (CMS), where a CMS includes a continuous parameter monitoring system (CPMS) as well as a continuous emissions monitoring system (CEMS), the permittee shall develop a site-specific monitoring plan and submit this site-specific monitoring plan, if requested, at least 60 days before the permittee's initial performance evaluation (where applicable) of the permittee's CMS. This requirement also applies to the permittee if the permittee petitions the Administrator or the Department for alternative monitoring parameters under §63.8(f). This requirement to develop and submit a site-specific monitoring plan does not apply to affected sources with existing monitoring plans that apply to CEMS and CPMS prepared under Appendix B to part 60 or part 75 of this chapter, and that meet the requirements of §63.10010. Using the process described in §63.8(f)(4), the permittee may request approval of monitoring system quality assurance and quality control procedures alternative to those specified in this paragraph of this section and, if approved, include those in the permittee's site-specific monitoring plan. The monitoring plan shall address the provisions in paragraphs (d)(2) through (5) of this section. (§63.10000(d)(1))
             
The site-specific monitoring plan shall include the information specified in paragraphs (d)(5)(i) through (d)(5)(vii) of this section. Alternatively, the requirements of paragraphs (d)(5)(i) through (d)(5)(vii) are considered to be met for a particular CMS or sorbent trap monitoring system if: (§63.10000(d)(2))
 (i) The CMS or sorbent trap monitoring system is installed, certified, maintained, operated, and quality-assured either according to part 75 of this chapter, or appendix A or B to this subpart; and
 (ii) The recordkeeping and reporting requirements of part 75 of this chapter, or appendix A or B to this subpart, that pertain to the CMS are met.
                
If requested by the Administrator or the Department, the permittee shall submit the monitoring plan (or relevant portion of the plan) at least 60 days before the initial performance evaluation of a particular CMS, except where the CMS has already undergone a performance evaluation that meets the requirements of §63.10010 (e.g., if the CMS was previously certified under another program). (§63.10000(d)(3))
             
The permittee shall operate and maintain the CMS according to the site-specific monitoring plan. (§63.10000(d)(4))

The provisions of the site-specific monitoring plan shall address the following items: (§63.10000(d)(5))
 Installation of the CMS or sorbent trap monitoring system sampling probe or other interface at a measurement location relative to each affected process unit such that the measurement is representative of control of the exhaust emissions (e.g., on or downstream of the last control device). See §63.10010(a) for further details. For PM CPMS installations, follow the procedures in §63.10010(h).
 Performance and equipment specifications for the sample interface, the pollutant concentration or parametric signal analyzer, and the data collection and reduction systems.

All monitoring systems necessary for compliance with any newly applicable monitoring requirements which apply as a result of the cessation or commencement or recommencement of operations that cause the permittee's EGU to meet the definition of an EGU subject to this subpart shall be installed and operational as of the date the permittee's source ceases to be or becomes subject to this subpart. All calibration and drift checks shall be performed as of the date the permittee's source ceases to be or becomes subject to this subpart. The permittee shall also comply with provisions of §§63.10010, 63.10020, and 63.10021 of this subpart. Relative accuracy tests shall be performed as of the performance test deadline for PM CEMS, if applicable. Relative accuracy testing for other CEMS need not be repeated if that testing was previously performed consistent with CAA section 112 monitoring requirements or monitoring requirements under this subpart. (§63.10000(k))
             
CMS requirements. If, for a particular emission or operating limit, the permittee is required to (or elect to) demonstrate initial compliance using a continuous monitoring system, the CMS shall pass a performance evaluation prior to the initial compliance demonstration. If a CMS has been previously certified under another state or federal program and is continuing to meet the on-going quality-assurance (QA) requirements of that program, then, provided that the certification and QA provisions of that program meet the applicable requirements of §§63.10010(b) through (h), an additional performance evaluation of the CMS is not required under this subpart. (§63.10005(d))

 For an affected coal-fired EGU, the permittee may demonstrate initial compliance with the applicable SO2, HCl, or HF emissions limit in Table 1 or 2 to this subpart through use of an SO2, HCl, or HF CEMS installed and operated in accordance with part 75 of this chapter or Appendix B to this subpart, as applicable. The permittee may also demonstrate compliance with a filterable PM emission limit in Table 1 or 2 to this subpart through use of a PM CEMS installed, certified, and operated in accordance with §63.10010(i). Initial compliance is achieved if the arithmetic average of 30-boiler operating days of quality-assured CEMS data, expressed in units of the standard (see §63.10007(e)), meets the applicable SO2, PM, HCl, or HF emissions limit in Table 1 or 2 to this subpart. Use Equation 19 - 19 of Method 19 in appendix A - 7 to part 60 of this chapter to calculate the 30-boiler operating day average emissions rate. (Note:For this calculation, the term Ehjin Equation 19 - 19 shall be in the same units of measure as the applicable HCl or HF emission limit in Table 1 or 2 to this subpart). (§63.10005(d)(1))
 For affected coal-fired EGUs that demonstrate compliance with the applicable emission limits for total non-mercury HAP metals, individual non-mercury HAP metals, total HAP metals, individual HAP metals, or filterable PM listed in Table 1 or 2 to this subpart using initial performance testing and continuous monitoring with PM CPMS: (§63.10005(d)(2))
 The permittee shall demonstrate initial compliance no later than the applicable date specified in §63.9984(f) for existing EGUs and in paragraph (g) of this section for new EGUs.
 The permittee shall demonstrate continuous compliance with the PM CPMS site-specific operating limit that corresponding to the results of the performance test demonstrating compliance with the pollutant with which the permittee chooses to comply.
 The permittee shall repeat the performance test annually for the selected pollutant emissions limit and reassess and adjust the site-specific operating limit in accordance with the results of the performance test.
 For affected EGUs that are either required to or elect to demonstrate initial compliance with the applicable Hg emission limit in Table 1 or 2 of this subpart using Hg CEMS or sorbent trap monitoring systems, initial compliance shall be demonstrated no later than the applicable date specified in §63.9984(f) for existing EGUs and in paragraph (g) of this section for new EGUs. Initial compliance is achieved if the arithmetic average of 30-boiler operating days of quality-assured CEMS (or sorbent trap monitoring system) data, expressed in units of the standard (see section 6.2 of appendix A to this subpart), meets the applicable Hg emission limit in Table 1 or 2 to this subpart. (§63.10005(d)(3))
             
Single unit-single stack configurations. For an affected unit that exhausts to the atmosphere through a single, dedicated stack, the permittee shall either install the required CEMS, PM CPMS, and sorbent trap monitoring systems in the stack or at a location in the ductwork downstream of all emissions control devices, where the pollutant and diluents concentrations are representative of the emissions that exit to the atmosphere. (§63.10010(a)(1))
             
If the permittee uses an oxygen (O2) or carbon dioxide (CO2) CEMS to convert measured pollutant concentrations to the units of the applicable emissions limit, the O2or CO2concentrations shall be monitored at a location that represents emissions to the atmosphere, i.e., at the outlet of the EGU, downstream of all emission control devices. The permittee shall install, certify, maintain, and operate the CEMS according to part 75 of this chapter. Use only quality-assured O2or CO2data in the emissions calculations; do not use part 75 substitute data values. (§63.10010(b))

If the permittee is required to use a stack gas flow rate monitor, either for routine operation of a sorbent trap monitoring system or to convert pollutant concentrations to units of an electrical output-based emission standard in Table 1 or 2 to this subpart, the permittee shall install, certify, operate, and maintain the monitoring system and conduct on-going quality-assurance testing of the system according to part 75 of this chapter. Use only unadjusted, quality-assured flow rate data in the emissions calculations.

Work Practice Standards

The permittee shall meet each of the following work practice standards: (§63.9991(a)(1), Table 3 to 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU, §63.10011(g), (§63.10005(e))
             
 Conduct a tune-up of the EGU burner and combustion controls at least each 36 calendar months, or each 48 calendar months if neural network combustion optimization software is employed, as specified in §63.10021(e). 
 During startup, the permitte shall operate all CMS during startup. Startup means either the first-ever firing of fuel in a boiler for the purpose of producing electricity, or the firing of fuel in a boiler after a shutdown event for any purpose. Startup ends when any of the steam from the boiler is used to generate electricity for sale over the grid or for any other purpose (including on site use). For startup of a unit, the permitee shall use clean fuels, either natural gas or distillate oil or a combination of clean fuels for ignition. Once the permittee converts to firing coal or synfuel, the permittee shall engage all of the applicable control technologies except the SCR. The permittee shall start the SCR system, appropriately to comply with relevant standards applicable during normal operation. The permittee shall comply with all applicable emissions limits at all times except for periods that meet the definitions of startup and shutdown in 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU.. The permittee shall keep records during periods of startup. The permittee shall provide reports concerning activities and periods of startup, as specified in §63.10011(g) and §63.10021(h) and (i).
 During shutdown, the permitte shall operate all CMS during shutdown. Shutdown means the cessation of operation of a boiler for any purpose. Shutdown begins either when none of the steam from the boiler is used to generate electricity for sale over the grid or for any other purpose (including on-site use) or at the point of no fuel being fired in the boiler. Shutdown ends when there is both no electricity being generated and no fuel being fired in the boiler. During shutdown, the permitte shall operate all applicable control technologies while firing coal, residual oil, or solid oil-derived fuel. The permittee shall comply with all applicable emissions limits at all times except for periods that meet the definitions of startup and shutdown in this subpart. The permittee shall keep records during periods of startup. The permittee shall provide reports concerning activities and periods of startup, as specified in §63.10011(g) and §63.10021(h) and (i).

All air pollution control equipment necessary for compliance with any newly applicable emissions limits which apply as a result of the cessation or commencement or recommencement of operations that cause the permittee's EGU to meet the definition of an EGU subject to this subpart shall be installed and operational as of the date the permittee's source ceases to be or becomes subject to this subpart. (§63.10000(j))
             
For an existing EGU without a neural network, a tune-up, following the procedures in §63.10021(e), must occur within 6 months (180 days) after April 16, 2015. For an existing EGU with a neural network, a tune-up must occur within 18 months (545 days) after April 16, 2016. If a tune-up occurs prior to April 16, 2015, you must keep records showing that the tune-up met all rule requirements. (§63.10005(f))

If the permittee shall conduct periodic performance tune-ups of the permittee's EGU(s), as specified in paragraphs (e)(1) through (9) of this section, perform the first tune-up as part of the permittee's initial compliance demonstration. Notwithstanding this requirement, the permittee may delay the first burner inspection until the next scheduled unit outage provided the permittee meets the requirements of §63.10005. Subsequently, the permittee shall perform an inspection of the burner at least once every 36 calendar months unless the permittee's EGU employs neural network combustion optimization during normal operations in which case the permittee shall perform an inspection of the burner and combustion controls at least once every 48 calendar months. (§63.10021(e))

 As applicable, inspect the burner and combustion controls, and clean or replace any components of the burner or combustion controls as necessary upon initiation of the work practice program and at least once every required inspection period. Repair of a burner or combustion control component requiring special order parts may be scheduled as follows: (§63.10021(e)(1))
 Burner or combustion control component parts needing replacement that affect the ability to optimize NOXand CO shall be installed within 3 calendar months after the burner inspection,
 Burner or combustion control component parts that do not affect the ability to optimize NOXand CO may be installed on a schedule determined by the operator;
 As applicable, inspect the flame pattern and make any adjustments to the burner or combustion controls necessary to optimize the flame pattern. The adjustment should be consistent with the manufacturer's specifications, if available, or in accordance with best combustion engineering practice for that burner type; (§63.10021(e)(2))
 As applicable, observe the damper operations as a function of mill and/or cyclone loadings, cyclone and pulverizer coal feeder loadings, or other pulverizer and coal mill performance parameters, making adjustments and effecting repair to dampers, controls, mills, pulverizers, cyclones, and sensors; (§63.10021(e)(3))
 As applicable, evaluate windbox pressures and air proportions, making adjustments and effecting repair to dampers, actuators, controls, and sensors; (§63.10021(e)(4))
 Inspect the system controlling the air-to-fuel ratio and ensure that it is correctly calibrated and functioning properly. Such inspection may include calibrating excess O2probes and/or sensors, adjusting overfire air systems, changing software parameters, and calibrating associated actuators and dampers to ensure that the systems are operated as designed. Any component out of calibration, in or near failure, or in a state that is likely to negate combustion optimization efforts prior to the next tune-up, should be corrected or repaired as necessary; (§63.10021(e)(5))
 Optimize combustion to minimize generation of CO and NOX. This optimization should be consistent with the manufacturer's specifications, if available, or best combustion engineering practice for the applicable burner type. NOXoptimization includes burners, overfire air controls, concentric firing system improvements, neural network or combustion efficiency software, control systems calibrations, adjusting combustion zone temperature profiles, and add-on controls such as SCR and SNCR; CO optimization includes burners, overfire air controls, concentric firing system improvements, neural network or combustion efficiency software, control systems calibrations, and adjusting combustion zone temperature profiles; (§63.10021(e)(6))
 While operating at full load or the predominantly operated load, measure the concentration in the effluent stream of CO and NOXin ppm, by volume, and oxygen in volume percent, before and after the tune-up adjustments are made (measurements may be either on a dry or wet basis, as long as it is the same basis before and after the adjustments are made). The permittee may use portable CO, NOXand O2monitors for this measurement. EGU's employing neural network optimization systems need only provide a single pre- and post-tune-up value rather than continual values before and after each optimization adjustment made by the system; (§63.10021(e)(7))
 Maintain on-site and submit, if requested by the Administrator or the Department, an annual report containing the information in paragraphs (e)(1) through (e)(9) of this section including: (§63.10021(e)(8))
 The concentrations of CO and NOXin the effluent stream in ppm by volume, and oxygen in volume percent, measured before and after an adjustment of the EGU combustion systems;
 A description of any corrective actions taken as a part of the combustion adjustment; and
 The type(s) and amount(s) of fuel used over the 12 calendar months prior to an adjustment, but only if the unit was physically and legally capable of using more than one type of fuel during that period; and
 Report the dates of the initial and subsequent tune-ups in hard copy, as specified in 63.10031(f)(5), through June 30, 2020. On or after July 1, 2020, report the date of all tune-ups electronically, in accordance with §63.10031(f). The tune-up report date is the date when tune-up requirements in paragraphs (e)(6) and (7) of this section are completed. (§63.10021(e)(9))
                   
If the permittee is required to meet an applicable tune-up work practice standard, the permittee shall conduct a performance tune-up according to §63.10021(e). (§63.10006(i))

 For EGUs not employing neural network combustion optimization during normal operation, each performance tune-up specified in §63.10021(e) shall be no more than 36 calendar months after the previous performance tune-up. (§63.10006(i)(1))
 For EGUs employing neural network combustion optimization systems during normal operation, each performance tune-up specified in §63.10021(e) shall be no more than 48 calendar months after the previous performance tune-up. (§63.10006(i)(2))
 
             
Hg Monitoring Provisions
       
General Provisions
             
 Applicability. The Hg CEMS or sorbent trap monitoring system shall be capable of measuring the total vapor phase mercury in units of the applicable emissions standard (e.g., lb/TBtu or lb/GWh), regardless of speciation. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 1.1)
 Initial Certification and Recertification Procedures. The owner or operator of an affected unit that uses a Hg CEMS or a sorbent trap monitoring system together with other necessary monitoring components to account for Hg emissions in units of the applicable emissions standard shall comply with the initial certification and recertification procedures in section 4 of this appendix. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 1.2)
 Quality Assurance and Quality Control Requirements. The owner or operator of an affected unit that uses a Hg CEMS or a sorbent trap monitoring system together with other necessary monitoring components to account for Hg emissions in units of the applicable emissions standard shall meet the applicable quality assurance requirements in section 5 of this appendix. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 1.3)
 Missing Data Procedures. The owner or operator of an affected unit is not required to substitute for missing data from Hg CEMS or sorbent trap monitoring systems. Any process operating hour for which quality-assured Hg concentration data are not obtained is counted as an hour of monitoring system downtime. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 1.4)
 Preventive Maintenance. Keep a written record of procedures needed to maintain the Hg CEMS and/or sorbent trap monitoring system(s) in proper operating condition and a schedule for those procedures. Include, at a minimum, all procedures specified by the manufacturers of the equipment and, if applicable, additional or alternate procedures developed for the equipment. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.4.1.1)
 Recordkeeping and Reporting. Keep a written record describing procedures that shall be used to implement the recordkeeping and reporting requirements of this appendix. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.4.1.2)
 Maintenance Records. Keep a record of all testing, maintenance, or repair activities performed on any Hg CEMS or sorbent trap monitoring system in a location and format suitable for inspection. A maintenance log may be used for this purpose. The following records should be maintained: date, time, and description of any testing, adjustment, repair, replacement, or preventive maintenance action performed on any monitoring system and records of any corrective actions associated with a monitor outage period. Additionally, any adjustment that may significantly affect a system's ability to accurately measure emissions data shall be recorded (e.g., changing the dilution ratio of a CEMS), and a written explanation of the procedures used to make the adjustment(s) shall be kept. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.4.1.3)
                
Monitoring of Hg Emissions
             
 Monitoring System Installation Requirements. Flue gases from the affected units under this subpart vent to the atmosphere through a variety of exhaust configurations including single stacks, common stack configurations, and multiple stack configurations. For each of these configurations, §63.10010(a) specifies the appropriate location(s) at which to install continuous monitoring systems (CMS). These CMS installation provisions apply to the Hg CEMS, sorbent trap monitoring systems, and other continuous monitoring systems that provide data for the Hg emissions calculations in section 6.2 of this appendix. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 2.1)
 Primary and Backup Monitoring Systems. In the electronic monitoring plan described in section 7.1.1.2.1 of this appendix, the permittee must designate a primary Hg CEMS or sorbent trap monitoring system. The primary system must be used to report hourly Hg concentration values when the system is able to provide quality-assured data, i.e., when the system is "in control". However, to increase data availability in the event of a primary monitoring system outage, the permittee may install, operate, maintain, and calibrate backup monitoring systems, as follows: (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 2.2)
 Redundant Backup Systems. A redundant backup monitoring system may be either a separate Hg CEMS with its own probe, sample interface, and analyzer, or a separate sorbent trap monitoring system. A redundant backup system is one that is permanently installed at the unit or stack location, and is kept on "hot standby" in case the primary monitoring system is unable to provide quality-assured data. A redundant backup system must be represented as a unique monitoring system in the electronic monitoring plan. Each redundant backup monitoring system must be certified according to the applicable provisions in section 4 of this appendix and must meet the applicable on-going QA requirements in section 5 of this appendix. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 2.2.1)
 Non-redundant Backup Monitoring Systems. A non-redundant backup monitoring system is a separate Hg CEMS or sorbent trap system that has been certified at a particular unit or stack location, but is not permanently installed at that location. Rather, the system is kept on "cold standby" and may be reinstalled in the event of a primary monitoring system outage. A non-redundant backup monitoring system must be represented as a unique monitoring system in the electronic monitoring plan. Non-redundant backup Hg CEMS must complete the same certification tests as the primary monitoring system, with one exception. The 7-day calibration error test is not required for a non-redundant backup Hg CEMS. Except as otherwise provided in section 2.2.4.5 of this appendix, a non-redundant backup monitoring system may only be used for 720 hours per year at a particular unit or stack location. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 2.2.2)
 Temporary Like-kind Replacement Analyzers. When a primary Hg analyzer needs repair or maintenance, the permittee may temporarily install a like-kind replacement analyzer, to minimize data loss. Except as otherwise provided in section 2.2.4.5 of this appendix, a temporary like-kind replacement analyzer may only be used for 720 hours per year at a particular unit or stack location. The analyzer must be represented as a component of the primary Hg CEMS, and must be assigned a 3-character component ID number, beginning with the prefix "LK". (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 2.2.3)
 Quality Assurance Requirements for Non-redundant Backup Monitoring Systems and Temporary Like-kind Replacement Analyzers. To quality-assure the data from non-redundant backup Hg monitoring systems and temporary like-kind replacement Hg analyzers, the following provisions apply: (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 2.2.4)
 When a certified non-redundant backup sorbent trap monitoring system is brought into service, the permittee must follow the procedures for routine day-to-day operation of the system, in accordance with Performance Specification (PS) 12B in appendix B to part 60 of this chapter. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 2.2.4.1)
 When a certified non-redundant backup Hg CEMS or a temporary like-kind replacement Hg analyzer is brought into service, a calibration error test and a linearity check must be performed and passed. A single point system integrity check is also required, unless a NIST-traceable source of oxidized Hg was used for the calibration error test. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 2.2.4.2)
 Each non-redundant backup Hg CEMS or temporary like-kind replacement Hg analyzer shall comply with all required daily, weekly, and quarterly quality-assurance test requirements in section 5 of this appendix, for as long as the system or analyzer remains in service. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 2.2.4.3)
 For the routine, on-going quality-assurance of a non-redundant backup Hg monitoring system, a relative accuracy test audit (RATA) must be performed and passed at least once every 8 calendar quarters at the unit or stack location(s) where the system will be used. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 2.2.4.4)
 To use a non-redundant backup Hg monitoring system or a temporary like-kind replacement analyzer for more than 720 hours per year at a particular unit or stack location, a RATA must first be performed and passed at that location. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 2.2.4.5)
                
Continuous Monitoring Methods.  The Hg CEMS shall meet the performance specifications in 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A Section 4.1.1.  The methods used shall comform to the standards and procedures in 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A Section 3.2. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 3.2)
             
Certification and Recertification Requirements

 Certification Requirements. All Hg CEMS and sorbent trap monitoring systems and the additional monitoring systems used to continuously measure Hg emissions in units of the applicable emissions standard in accordance with this appendix must be certified in a timely manner, such that the initial compliance demonstration is completed no later than the applicable date in §63.10005(g). (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 4.1)
 Hg CEMS. Table A - 1, below, summarizes the certification test requirements and performance specifications for a Hg CEMS. The CEMS may not be used to report quality-assured data until these performance criteria are met. Paragraphs 4.1.1.1 through 4.1.1.5 of this section provide specific instructions for the required tests. All tests must be performed with the affected unit(s) operating ( i.e., combusting fuel). Except for the RATA, which must be performed at normal load, no particular load level is required for the certification tests. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 4.1.1)
 7-Day Calibration Error Test. Perform the 7-day calibration error test on 7 consecutive source operating days, using a zero-level gas and either a high-level or a mid-level calibration gas standard (as defined in sections 3.1.8, 3.1.10, and 3.1.11 of this appendix). Either elemental or oxidized NIST-traceable Hg standards (as defined in sections 3.1.4 and 3.1.5 of this appendix) may be used for the test. If moisture and/or chlorine is added to the calibration gas, the dilution effect of the moisture and/or chlorine addition on the calibration gas concentration must be accounted for in an appropriate manner. Operate the Hg CEMS in its normal sampling mode during the test. The calibrations should be approximately 24 hours apart, unless the 7-day test is performed over nonconsecutive calendar days. On each day of the test, inject the zero-level and upscale gases in sequence and record the analyzer responses. Pass the calibration gas through all filters, scrubbers, conditioners, and other monitor components used during normal sampling, and through as much of the sampling probe as is practical. Do not make any manual adjustments to the monitor ( i.e., resetting the calibration) until after taking measurements at both the zero and upscale concentration levels. If automatic adjustments are made following both injections, conduct the calibration error test such that the magnitude of the adjustments can be determined, and use only the unadjusted analyzer responses in the calculations. Calculate the calibration error (CE) on each day of the test, as described in Table A - 1. The CE on each day of the test must either meet the main performance specification or the alternative specification in Table A - 1. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 4.1.1.1)
 Linearity Check. Perform the linearity check using low, mid, and high-level concentrations of NIST-traceable elemental Hg standards. Three gas injections at each concentration level are required, with no two successive injections at the same concentration level. Introduce the calibration gas at the gas injection port, as specified in section 3.2.1.1.3.6 of this appendix. Operate the CEMS at its normal operating temperature and conditions. Pass the calibration gas through all filters, scrubbers, conditioners, and other components used during normal sampling, and through as much of the sampling probe as is practical. If moisture and/or chlorine is added to the calibration gas, the dilution effect of the moisture and/or chlorine addition on the calibration gas concentration must be accounted for in an appropriate manner. Record the monitor response from the data acquisition and handling system for each gas injection. At each concentration level, use the average analyzer response to calculate the linearity error (LE), as described in Table A - 1. The LE must either meet the main performance specification or the alternative specification in Table A - 1. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 4.1.1.2)
 Three-Level System Integrity Check. Perform the 3-level system integrity check using low, mid, and high-level calibration gas concentrations generated by a NIST-traceable source of oxidized Hg. Follow the same basic procedure as for the linearity check. If moisture and/or chlorine is added to the calibration gas, the dilution effect of the moisture and/or chlorine addition on the calibration gas concentration must be accounted for in an appropriate manner. Calculate the system integrity error (SIE), as described in Table A - 1. The SIE must either meet the main performance specification or the alternative specification in Table A - 1. (Note:This test is not required if the CEMS does not have a converter). (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 4.1.1.3)

       [4]Use oxidized Hg standards. Not required if the CEMS does not have a converter.
       
       [5]Stability criteria -- Readings change by <2.0% of span or by <=0.5 ug/scm, for 2 minutes.
       
       ** Note that RMavg−Cavg; is the absolute difference between the mean reference method value and the mean CEMS value from the RATA. The arithmetic difference between RMavgand Cavgcan be either + or −.
       
 Cycle Time Test. Perform the cycle time test, using a zero-level gas and a high-level calibration gas.Either an elemental or oxidized NIST-traceable Hg standard may be used as the high-level gas. Perform the test in two stages -- upscale and downscale. The slower of the upscale and downscale response times is the cycle time for the CEMS. Begin each stage of the test by injecting calibration gas after achieving a stable reading of the stack emissions. The cycle time is the amount of time it takes for the analyzer to register a reading that is 95 percent of the way between the stable stack emissions reading and the final, stable reading of the calibration gas concentration. Use the following criterion to determine when a stable reading of stack emissions or calibration gas has been attained -- the reading is stable if it changes by no more than 2.0 percent of the span value or 0.5 ug/scm (whichever is less restrictive) for two minutes, or a reading with a change of less than 6.0 percent from the measured average concentration over 6 minutes. Integrated batch sampling type Hg CEMS are exempted from this test; however, these systems must be capable of delivering a measured Hg concentration reading at least once every 15 minutes. If necessary to increase measurement sensitivity of a batch sampling type Hg CEMS for a specific application, the permittee may petition the Administrator for approval of a time longer than 15 minutes between readings. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 4.1.1.4)
 Relative Accuracy Test Audit (RATA). Perform the RATA of the Hg CEMS at normal load. Acceptable Hg reference methods for the RATA include ASTM D6784 - 02 (Reapproved 2008), "Standard Test Method for Elemental, Oxidized, Particle-Bound and Total Mercury in Flue Gas Generated from Coal-Fired Stationary Sources (Ontario Hydro Method)" (incorporated by reference, see §63.14) and Methods 29, 30A, and 30B in appendix A - 8 to part 60. When Method 29 or ASTM D6784 - 02 is used, paired sampling trains are required. To validate a Method 29 or ASTM D6784 - 02 test run, calculate the relative deviation (RD) using Equation A - 1 of this section, and assess the results as follows to validate the run. The RD must not exceed 10 percent, when the average Hg concentration is greater than 1.0 ug/dscm. If the average concentration is <= 1.0 ug/dscm, the RD must not exceed 20 percent. The RD results are also acceptable if the absolute difference between the two Hg concentrations does not exceed 0.2 ug/dscm. If the RD specification is met, the results of the two samples shall be averaged arithmetically. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 4.1.1.5)
                
       
 
       Where:
       
       RD = Relative deviation between the Hg concentrations of samples "a" and "b" (percent)
       
       Ca= Hg concentration of Hg sample "a" (ug/dscm)
       
       Cb= Hg concentration of Hg sample "b" (ug/dscm)
       
 Special Considerations. A minimum of nine valid test runs must be performed, directly comparing the CEMS measurements to the reference method. More than nine test runs may be performed. If this option is chosen, the results from a maximum of three test runs may be rejected so long as the total number of test results used to determine the relative accuracy is greater than or equal to nine; however, all data must be reported including the rejected data. The minimum time per run is 21 minutes if Method 30A is used. If Method 29, Method 30B, or ASTM D6784 - 02 (Reapproved 2008), "Standard Test Method for Elemental, Oxidized, Particle-Bound and Total Mercury in Flue Gas Generated from Coal-Fired Stationary Sources (Ontario Hydro Method)" (incorporated by reference, see §63.14) is used, the time per run must be long enough to collect a sufficient mass of Hg to analyze. Complete the RATA within 168 unit operating hours, except when Method 29 or ASTM D6784 - 02 is used, in which case up to 336 operating hours may be taken to finish the test. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 4.1.1.5.1)
 Calculation of RATA Results. Calculate the relative accuracy (RA) of the monitoring system, on a ug/scm basis, as described in section 12 of Performance Specification (PS) 2 in Appendix B to part 60 of this chapter (see Equations 2 - 3 through 2 - 6 of PS2). For purposes of calculating the relative accuracy, ensure that the reference method and monitoring system data are on a consistent moisture basis, either wet or dry. The CEMS must either meet the main performance specification or the alternative specification in Table A - 1. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 4.1.1.5.2)
 Bias Adjustment. Measurement or adjustment of Hg CEMS data for bias is not required. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 4.1.1.5.3)
 Sorbent Trap Monitoring Systems. For the initial certification of a sorbent trap monitoring system, only a RATA is required. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 4.1.2)
 Reference Methods. The acceptable reference methods for the RATA of a sorbent trap monitoring system are the same as those listed in paragraph 4.1.1.5 of this section. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 4.1.2.1)
 4"The special considerations specified in paragraph 4.1.1.5.1 of this section apply to the RATA of a sorbent trap monitoring system. During the RATA, the monitoring system must be operated and quality-assured in accordance with Performance Specification (PS) 12B in Appendix B to part 60 of this chapter with the following exceptions for sorbent trap section 2 breakthrough: (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 4.1.2.2)
 For stack Hg concentrations >1 ug/dscm, <=10% of section 1 Hg mass; 
 For stack Hg concentrations <=1 ug/dscm and >0.5 ug/dscm, <= 20% of section 1 Hg mass; 
 For stack Hg concentrations <=0.5 ug/dscm and >0.1 ug/dscm, <= 50% of section 1 Hg mass; and
  For stack Hg concentrations <=0.1ug/dscm, no breakthrough criterion assuming all other QA/QC specifications are met.
 The type of sorbent material used by the traps during the RATA must be the same as for daily operation of the monitoring system; however, the size of the traps used for the RATA may be smaller than the traps used for daily operation of the system. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 4.1.2.3)
 Calculation of RATA Results. Calculate the relative accuracy (RA) of the sorbent trap monitoring system, on a ug/scm basis, as described in section 12 of Performance Specification (PS) 2 in appendix B to part 60 of this chapter (see Equations 2 - 3 through 2 - 6 of PS2). For purposes of calculating the relative accuracy, ensure that the reference method and monitoring system data are on a consistent moisture basis, either wet or dry.The main and alternative RATA performance specifications in Table A - 1 for Hg CEMS also apply to the sorbent trap monitoring system. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 4.1.2.4)
 Bias Adjustment. Measurement or adjustment of sorbent trap monitoring system data for bias is not required. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 4.1.2.5)
 Diluent Gas, Flow Rate, and/or Moisture Monitoring Systems . Monitoring systems that are used to measure stack gas volumetric flow rate, diluent gas concentration, or stack gas moisture content, either for routine operation of a sorbent trap monitoring system or to convert Hg concentration data to units of the applicable emission limit, must be certified in accordance with the applicable provisions of part 75 of this chapter. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 4.1.3)
 Recertification. Whenever the owner or operator makes a replacement, modification, or change to a certified CEMS or sorbent trap monitoring system that may significantly affect the ability of the system to accurately measure or record pollutant or diluent gas concentrations, stack gas flow rates, or stack gas moisture content, the owner or operator shall recertify the monitoring system. Furthermore, whenever the owner or operator makes a replacement, modification, or change to the flue gas handling system or the unit operation that may significantly change the concentration or flow profile, the owner or operator shall recertify the monitoring system. The same tests performed for the initial certification of the monitoring system shall be repeated for recertification, unless otherwise specified by the Administrator. Examples of changes that require recertification include: replacement of a gas analyzer; complete monitoring system replacement, and changing the location or orientation of the sampling probe. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 4.2)
                
5. Ongoing Quality Assurance (QA) and Data Validation
             
 Hg CEMS. 
 Required QA Tests. Periodic QA testing of each Hg CEMS is required following initial certification. The required QA tests, the test frequencies, and the performance specifications that must be met are summarized in Table A - 2, below. All tests must be performed with the affected unit(s) operating ( i.e., combusting fuel). Except for the RATA, which must be performed at normal load, no particular load level is required for the tests. For each test, follow the same basic procedures in section 4.1.1 of this appendix that were used for initial certification. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.1.1)
 Test Frequency. The frequency for the required QA tests of the Hg CEMS shall be as follows: (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.1.2)
 Calibration error tests of the Hg CEMS are required daily, except during unit outages. Use either NIST-traceable elemental Hg standards or NIST-traceable oxidized Hg standards for these calibrations. Both a zero-level gas and either a mid-level or high-level gas are required for these calibrations. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.1.2.1)
 Perform a linearity check of the Hg CEMS in each QA operating quarter, using low-level, mid-level, and high-level NIST-traceable elemental Hg standards. For units that operate infrequently, limited exemptions from this test are allowed for "non-QA operating quarters". A maximum of three consecutive exemptions for this reason are permitted, following the quarter of the last test. After the third consecutive exemption, a linearity check must be performed in the next calendar quarter or within a grace period of 168 unit or stack operating hours after the end of that quarter. The test frequency for 3-level system integrity checks (if performed in lieu of linearity checks) is the same as for the linearity checks. Use low-level, mid-level, and high-level NIST-traceable oxidized Hg standards for the system integrity checks. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.1.2.2)
 If required, perform a single-level system integrity check weekly, i.e., once every 7 operating days (see the third column in Table A - 2). (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.1.2.3)
 The test frequency for the RATAs of the Hg CEMS shall be annual, i.e., once every four QA operating quarters. For units that operate infrequently, extensions of RATA deadlines are allowed for non-QA operating quarters. Following a RATA, if there is a subsequent non-QA quarter, it extends the deadline for the next test by one calendar quarter. However, there is a limit to these extensions; the deadline may not be extended beyond the end of the eighth calendar quarter after the quarter of the last test. At that point, a RATA must either be performed within the eighth calendar quarter or in a 720 hour unit or stack operating hour grace period following that quarter. When a required annual RATA is done within a grace period, the deadline for the next RATA is three QA operating quarters after the quarter in which the grace period test is performed. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.1.2.4)
 Grace Periods. 
 A 168 unit or stack operating hour grace period is available for quarterly linearity checks and 3-level system integrity checks of the Hg CEMS. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.1.3.1)
 A 720 unit or stack operating hour grace period is available for RATAs of the Hg CEMS. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.1.3.2)
 There is no grace period for weekly system integrity checks. The test must be completed once every 7 operating days. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.1.3.3)
 Data Validation. The Hg CEMS is considered to be out-of-control, and data from the CEMS may not be reported as quality-assured, when any one of the acceptance criteria for the required QA tests in Table A - 2 is not met. The CEMS is also considered to be out-of-control when a required QA test is not performed on schedule or within an allotted grace period. To end an out-of-control period, the QA test that was either failed or not done on time must be performed and passed. Out-of-control periods are counted as hours of monitoring system downtime. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.1.4)
 Conditional Data Validation. For certification, recertification, and diagnostic testing of Hg monitoring systems, and for the required QA tests when non-redundant backup Hg monitoring systems or temporary like-kind Hg analyzers are brought into service, the conditional data validation provisions in §§75.20(b)(3)(ii) through (b)(3)(ix) of this chapter may be used to avoid or minimize data loss. The allotted window of time to complete 7-day calibration error tests, linearity checks, cycle time tests, and RATAs shall be as specified in §75.20(b)(3)(iv) of this chapter. Required system integrity checks must be completed within 168 unit or stack operating hours after the probationary calibration error test. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.1.5)

A diagnostic linearity check is required within 168 unit or stack operating hours after changing the span value. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.1.6)
 Daily Calibrations, Linearity Checks and System Integrity Checks. Keep a written record of the procedures used for daily calibrations of the Hg CEMS. If moisture and/or chlorine is added to the Hg calibration gas, document how the dilution effect of the moisture and/or chlorine addition on the calibration gas concentration is accounted for in an appropriate manner. Also keep records of the procedures used to perform linearity checks of the Hg CEMS and the procedures for system integrity checks of the Hg CEMS. Document how the test results are calculated and evaluated. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.4.2.1)

 Relative Accuracy Test Audits. Keep a written record of procedures used for RATAs of the Hg CEMS. Indicate the reference methods used and document how the test results are calculated and evaluated. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.4.2.3)
                
 Sorbent Trap Monitoring Systems. 
 Each sorbent trap monitoring system shall be continuously operated and maintained in accordance with Performance Specification (PS) 12B in appendix B to part 60 of this chapter. The QA/QC criteria for routine operation of the system are summarized in Table 12B - 1 of PS 12B. Each pair of sorbent traps may be used to sample the stack gas for up to 14 operating days. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.2.1)
 For ongoing QA, periodic RATAs of the system are required. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.2.2)
 The RATA frequency shall be annual, i.e., once every four QA operating quarters. The provisions in section 5.1.2.4 of this appendix pertaining to RATA deadline extensions also apply to sorbent trap monitoring systems. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.2.2.1)
 The same RATA performance criteria specified in Table A - 4 for Hg CEMS shall apply to the annual RATAs of the sorbent trap monitoring system. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.2.2.2)
 A 720 unit or stack operating hour grace period is available for RATAs of the monitoring system. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.2.2.3)
 Data validation for sorbent trap monitoring systems shall be done in accordance with Table 12B - 1 in Performance Specification (PS) 12B in appendix B to part 60 of this chapter. All periods of invalid data shall be counted as hours of monitoring system downtime. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.2.3)
 Flow Rate, Diluent Gas, and Moisture Monitoring Systems. The on-going QA test requirements for these monitoring systems are specified in part 75 of this chapter (see §§63.10010(b) through (d)). (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.3)
 QA/QC Program Requirements. The owner or operator shall develop and implement a quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) program for the Hg CEMS and/or sorbent trap monitoring systems that are used to provide data under this subpart. At a minimum, the program shall include a written plan that describes in detail (or that refers to separate documents containing) complete, step-by-step procedures and operations for the most important QA/QC activities. Electronic storage of the QA/QC plan is permissible, provided that the information can be made available in hard copy to auditors and inspectors. The QA/QC program requirements for the diluent gas, flow rate, and moisture monitoring systems described in section 3.2.1.3 of this appendix are specified in section 1 of appendix B to part 75 of this chapter. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.4)
 Sorbent Trap Identification and Tracking. Include procedures for inscribing or otherwise permanently marking a unique identification number on each sorbent trap, for chain of custody purposes. Keep records of the ID of the monitoring system in which each sorbent trap is used, and the dates and hours of each Hg collection period. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.4.3.1)
 Monitoring System Integrity and Data Quality. Document the procedures used to perform the leak checks when a sorbent trap is placed in service and removed from service. Also Document the other QA procedures used to ensure system integrity and data quality, including, but not limited to, gas flow meter calibrations, verification of moisture removal, and ensuring air-tight pump operation. In addition, the QA plan must include the data acceptance and quality control criteria in Table 12B - 1 in section 9.0 of Performance Specification (PS) 12B in Appendix B to part 60 of this chapter. All reference meters used to calibrate the gas flow meters (e.g., wet test meters) shall be periodically recalibrated. Annual, or more frequent, recalibration is recommended. If a NIST-traceable calibration device is used as a reference flow meter, the QA plan must include a protocol for ongoing maintenance and periodic recalibration to maintain the accuracy and NIST-traceability of the calibrator. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.4.3.2)
 Hg Analysis. Explain the chain of custody employed in packing, transporting, and analyzing the sorbent traps. Keep records of all Hg analyses. The analyses shall be performed in accordance with the procedures described in section 11.0 of Performance Specification (PS) 12B in Appendix B to part 60 of this chapter. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.4.3.3)
 Data Collection Period. State, and provide the rationale for, the minimum acceptable data collection period (e.g., one day, one week, etc.) for the size of sorbent trap selected for the monitoring. Address such factors as the Hg concentration in the stack gas, the capacity of the sorbent trap, and the minimum mass of Hg required for the analysis. Each pair of sorbent traps may be used to sample the stack gas for up to 14 operating days. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.4.3.4)
 Relative Accuracy Test Audit Procedures. Keep records of the procedures and details peculiar to the sorbent trap monitoring systems that are to be followed for relative accuracy test audits, such as sampling and analysis methods. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 5.4.3.5)
                   
Data Reduction and Calculations
             
 Data Reduction. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 6.1)
 Reduce the data from Hg CEMS to hourly averages, in accordance with §60.13(h)(2) of this chapter. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 6.1.1)
 For sorbent trap monitoring systems, determine the Hg concentration for each data collection period and assign this concentration value to each operating hour in the data collection period. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 6.1.2)
 For any operating hour in which valid data are not obtained, either for Hg concentration or for a parameter used in the emissions calculations ( i.e., flow rate, diluent gas concentration, or moisture, as applicable), do not calculate the Hg emission rate for that hour. For the purposes of this appendix, part 75 substitute data values are not considered to be valid data. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 6.1.3)
 Operating hours in which valid data are not obtained for Hg concentration are considered to be hours of monitor downtime. The use of substitute data for Hg concentration is not required. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 6.1.4)
                   
 Calculation of Hg Emission Rates. Use the applicable calculation methods in paragraphs 6.2.1 and 6.2.2 of this section to convert Hg concentration values to the appropriate units of the emission standard. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 6.2)

 Calculate the Hg emission rate in lb/MMBtu, using the equation selected from Method 19. Multiply the Hg concentration value by 6.24 x 10[−11]to convert it from ug/scm to lb/scf. In cases where an appropriate F-factor is not listed in Table 19 - 2 of Method 19, the permittee may use F-factors from Table 1 in section 3.3.5 of appendix F to part 75 of this chapter, or F-factors derived using the procedures in section 3.3.6 of appendix to part 75 of this chapter. Also, for startup and shutdown hours, the permittee may calculate the Hg emission rate using the applicable diluent cap value specified in section 3.3.4.1 of appendix F to part 75 of this chapter, provided that the diluent gas monitor is not out-of-control and the hourly average O2concentration is above 14.0% O2(19.0% for an IGCC) or the hourly average CO2concentration is below 5.0% CO2(1.0% for an IGCC), as applicable. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 6.2.1.2)
 Multiply the lb/MMBtu value obtained in section 6.2.1.2 of this appendix by 10[6] to convert it to lb/TBtu. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 6.2.1.3)
 The heat input-based Hg emission rate limit in Table 2 to this subpart must be met on a 30 boiler operating day rolling average basis, except as otherwise provided in §63.10009(a)(2). Use Equation 19 - 19 in EPA Method 19 to calculate the Hg emission rate for each averaging period. The term Ehjin Equation 19 - 19 must be in the units of the applicable emission limit. Do not include non-operating hours with zero emissions in the average. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 6.2.1.4)
 Electrical Output-Based Hg Emission Rates. Calculate electrical output-based Hg emission limits in units of lb/GWh, according to sections 6.2.2.1 through 6.2.2.3 of this appendix. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 6.2.2)
 Calculate the Hg mass emissions for each operating hour in which valid data are obtained for all parameters, using Equation A - 2 of this section (for wet-basis measurements of Hg concentration) or Equation A - 3 of this section (for dry-basis measurements), as applicable: (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 6.2.2.1)
                      
                   
               
               Where:

               Ch= Hourly average Hg concentration, dry basis (ug/dscm).
               Qh= Stack gas volumetric flow rate for the hour (scfh)
               (Note:Use unadjusted flow rate values; bias adjustment is not required).
               Bws= Moisture fraction of the stack gas, expressed as a decimal (equal to % H2O/100)
      
 Use Equation A - 4 of this section to calculate the emission rate for each unit or stack operating hour in which valid data are obtained for all parameters. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix A 6.2.2.2)

 The HCl and/or HF CEMS must be certified according to Performance Specification 15 using the procedures for gas auditing and comparison to a reference method (RM) as specified in sections 3.1.1 and 3.1.2 below. (Please Note:EPA plans to publish a technology neutral performance specification and appropriate on-going quality-assurance requirements for HCl CEMS in the near future along with amendments to this appendix to accommodate their use.) (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix B 3.1)
 The permittee must conduct a gas audit of the HCl and/or HF CEMS as described in section 9.1 of Performance Specification 15, with the exceptions listed in sections 3.1.2.1 and 3.1.2.2 below. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix B 3.1.1)
 The audit sample gas does not have to be obtained from the Administrator; however, it must be (1) from a secondary source of certified gases ( i.e. , independent of any calibration gas used for the daily calibration assessments) and (2) directly traceable to National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) or VSL Dutch Metrology Institute (VSL) reference materials through an unbroken chain of comparisons. If audit gas traceable to NIST or VSL reference materials is not available, the permittee may use a gas with a concentration certified to a specified uncertainty by the gas manufacturer. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix B 3.1.1.1)
 Analyze the results of the gas audit using the calculations in section 12.1 of Performance Specification 15. The calculated correction factor (CF) from Eq. 6 of Performance Specification 15 must be between 0.85 and 1.15. The permitte does not have to test the bias for statistical significance.

 The permittee must perform a relative accuracy test audit or RATA according to section 11.1.1.4 of Performance Specification 15 and the requirements below. Perform the RATA of the HCl or HF CEMS at normal load. Acceptable HCl/HF reference methods (RM) are Methods 26 and 26A in appendix A - 8 to part 60 of this chapter, Method 320 in Appendix A to this part, or ASTM D6348 - 03 (Reapproved 2010) "Standard Test Method for Determination of Gaseous Compounds by Extractive Direct Interface Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy" (incorporated by reference, see §63.14), each applied based on the criteria set forth in Table 5 of this subpart. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix B 3.1.2)
 When ASTM D6348 - 03 is used as the RM, the following conditions must be met: (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix B 3.1.2.1)
 The test plan preparation and implementation in the Annexes to ASTM D6348 - 03, Sections A1 through A8 are mandatory;
 In ASTM D6348 - 03 Annex A5 (Analyte Spiking Technique), the percent (%) R must be determined for each target analyte (see Equation A5.5);
 For the ASTM D6348 - 03 test data to be acceptable for a target analyte, %R must be 70% >= R <= 130%; and
 The %R value for each compound must be reported in the test report and all field measurements corrected with the calculated %R value for that compound using the following equation:
                      
               
      
      
 The relative accuracy (RA) of the HCl or HF CEMS must be no greater than 20 percent of the mean value of the RM test data in units of ppm on the same moisture basis. Alternatively, if the mean RM value is less than 1.0 ppm, the RA results are acceptable if the absolute value of the difference between the mean RM and CEMS values does not exceed 0.20 ppm.

            Whenever the owner or operator makes a replacement, modification, or change to a certified CEMS that may significantly affect the ability of the system to accurately measure or record pollutant or diluent gas concentrations, stack gas flow rates, or stack gas moisture content, the owner or operator shall recertify the monitoring system. Furthermore, whenever the owner or operator makes a replacement, modification, or change to the flue gas handling system or the unit operation that may significantly change the concentration or flow profile, the owner or operator shall recertify the monitoring system. The same tests performed for the initial certification of the monitoring system shall be repeated for recertification, unless otherwise specified by the Administrator. Examples of changes that require recertification include: Replacement of a gas analyzer; complete monitoring system replacement, and changing the location or orientation of the sampling probe. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix B 4)
On-Going Quality Assurance Requirements 
             
 For on-going QA test requirements for HCl and HF CEMS, implement the quality assurance/quality control procedures of Performance Specification 15 of appendix B to part 60 of this chapter as set forth in sections 5.1.1 through 5.1.3 and 5.3.2 of this appendix. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix B 5.1)
 On a daily basis, the permittee must assess the calibration error of the HCl or HF CEMS using either a calibration transfer standard as specified in Performance Specification 15 Section 10.1 which references Section 4.5 of the FTIR Protocol or a HCl and/or HF calibration gas at a concentration no greater than two times the level corresponding to the applicable emission limit. A calibration transfer standard is a substitute calibration compound chosen to ensure that the FTIR is performing well at the wavelength regions used for analysis of the target analytes. The measured concentration of the calibration transfer standard or HCl and/or HF calibration gas results must agree within +- 5 percent of the reference gas value after correction for differences in pressure. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix B 5.1.1)
 On a quarterly basis, the permittee must conduct a gas audit of the HCl and/or HF CEMS as described in section 3.1.1 of this appendix. For the purposes of this appendix, "quarterly" means once every "QA operating quarter" (as defined in section 3.1.20 of appendix A to this subpart). The permittee has the option to use HCl gas in lieu of HF gas for conducting this audit on an HF CEMS. To the extent practicable, perform consecutive quarterly gas audits at least 30 days apart. The initial quarterly audit is due in the first QA operating quarter following the calendar quarter in which certification testing of the CEMS is successfully completed. Up to three consecutive exemptions from the quarterly audit requirement are allowed for "non-QA operating quarters" ( i.e., calendar quarters in which there are less than 168 unit or stack operating hours). However, no more than four consecutive calendar quarters may elapse without performing a gas audit, except as otherwise provided in section 5.3.3.2.1 of this appendix. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix B 5.1.2)
 The permittee must perform an annual relative accuracy test audit or RATA of the HCl or HF CEMS as described in section 3.1.2 of this appendix. Perform the RATA at normal load. For the purposes of this appendix, "annual" means once every four "QA operating quarters" (as defined in section 3.1.20 of appendix A to this subpart). The first annual RATA is due within four QA operating quarters following the calendar quarter in which the initial certification testing of the HCl or HF CEMS is successfully completed. The provisions in section 5.1.2.4 of appendix A to this subpart pertaining to RATA deadline extensions also apply. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix B 5.1.3)
 Stack gas flow rate, diluent gas, and moisture monitoring systems must meet the applicable on-going QA test requirements of part 75 of this chapter. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix B 5.2)
 Data Validation. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix B 5.3)
 Out-of-Control Periods . A HCl or HF CEMS that is used to provide data under this appendix is considered to be out-of-control, and data from the CEMS may not be reported as quality-assured, when any acceptance criteria for a required QA test is not met. The HCl or HF CEMS is also considered to be out-of-control when a required QA test is not performed on schedule or within an allotted grace period. To end an out-of-control period, the QA test that was either failed or not done on time must be performed and passed. Out-of-control periods are counted as hours of monitoring system downtime. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix B 5.3.1)
 Grace Periods . For the purposes of this appendix, a "grace period" is defined as a specified number of unit or stack operating hours after the deadline for a required quality-assurance test of a continuous monitor has passed, in which the test may be performed and passed without loss of data. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix B 5.3.2)
 For the flow rate, diluent gas, and moisture monitoring systems described in section 5.2 of this appendix, a 168 unit or stack operating hour grace period is available for quarterly linearity checks, and a 720 unit or stack operating hour grace period is available for RATAs, as provided, respectively, in sections 2.2.4 and 2.3.3 of appendix B to part 75 of this chapter. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix B 5.3.2.1)
 For the purposes of this appendix, if the deadline for a required gas audit or RATA of a HCl or HF CEMS cannot be met due to circumstances beyond the control of the owner or operator: (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix B 5.3.2.2)
 A 168 unit or stack operating hour grace period is available in which to perform the gas audit; or
 A 720 unit or stack operating hour grace period is available in which to perform the RATA.
 If a required QA test is performed during a grace period, the deadline for the next test shall be determined as follows: (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix B 5.3.2.3)
 For a gas audit or RATA of the monitoring systems described in section 5.1 of this appendix, determine the deadline for the next gas audit or RATA (as applicable) in accordance with section 2.2.4(b) or 2.3.3(d) of appendix B to part 75 of this chapter; treat a gas audit in the same manner as a linearity check.
 For the gas audit of a HCl or HF CEMS, the grace period test only satisfies the audit requirement for the calendar quarter in which the test was originally due. If the calendar quarter in which the grace period audit is performed is a QA operating quarter, an additional gas audit is required for that quarter.
 For the RATA of a HCl or HF CEMS, the next RATA is due within three QA operating quarters after the calendar quarter in which the grace period test is performed.
 Conditional Data Validation. For recertification and diagnostic testing of the monitoring systems that are used to provide data under this appendix, and for the required QA tests when non-redundant backup monitoring systems or temporary like-kind replacement analyzers are brought into service, the conditional data validation provisions in §§75.20(b)(3)(ii) through (b)(3)(ix) of this chapter may be used to avoid or minimize data loss. The allotted window of time to complete calibration tests and RATAs shall be as specified in §75.20(b)(3)(iv) of this chapter; the allotted window of time to complete a gas audit shall be the same as for a linearity check ( i.e., 168 unit or stack operating hours). (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix B 5.3.4)
                   
Missing Data Requirements
            For the purposes of this appendix, the owner or operator of an affected unit shall not substitute for missing data from HCl or HF CEMS. Any process operating hour for which quality-assured HCl or HF concentration data are not obtained is counted as an hour of monitoring system downtime. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix B 6)
Bias Adjustment
            Bias adjustment of hourly emissions data from a HCl or HF CEMS is not required. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix B 7)
QA/QC Program Requirements - the owner or operator shall develop and implement a quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) program for the HCl and/or HF CEMS that are used to provide data under this subpart. At a minimum, the program shall include a written plan that describes in detail (or that refers to separate documents containing) complete, step-by-step procedures and operations for the most important QA/QC activities. Electronic storage of the QA/QC plan is permissible, provided that the information can be made available in hard copy to auditors and inspectors. The QA/QC program requirements for the other monitoring systems described in section 5.2 of this appendix are specified in section 1 of appendix B to part 75 of this chapter.

Multiply the HCl concentration value (ppm) by 9.43 x 10[−8]to convert it to lb/scf, for use in the applicable Method 19 equation. For HF, the conversion constant from ppm to lb/scf is 5.18 x 10[−8]. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix B 9.3.1)
 For electrical output-based emission rates, first calculate the HCl or HF mass emission rate (lb/h), using an equation that has the general form of Equation A - 2 or A - 3 in appendix A to this subpart (as applicable), replacing the value of K with 9.43 x 10[−8]lb/scf-ppm (for HCl) or 5.18 x 10[−8](for HF) and defining Chas the hourly average HCl or HF concentration in ppm. Then, use Equation A - 4 in appendix A to this subpart to calculate the HCl or HF emission rate in lb/GWh. If the applicable HCl or HF limit is expressed in lb/MWh, divide the result from Equation A - 4 by 10[3]. (40 CFR Part 63 Subpart UUUUU Appendix B 9.3.2)
 Use Equation A - 5 in appendix A of this subpart to calculate the required 30 operating day rolling average HCl or HF emission rates.
