RULE 213 CONTINUOUS EMISSIONS MONITORING
(Adopted by the ARB June 22, 1977; Revised February 16, 1994.)
2.2 Continuous Emissions Monitoring System (CEMS)
2.5 Nitrogen Oxides (NOx)
2.6 Peaking Unit
2.7 Permit to Operate
2.8 Sulfur Oxides (SOx)
PART 3 REQUIREMENTS AND STANDARDS FOR SOURCES SUBJECT TO TITLE IV OF THE FEDERAL CLEAN AIR ACT
4.1 Fossil fuel-fired Steam Generators
4.7 CEMS for CO2 and O2 6
5.1 Recordkeeping Requirements
The purpose of this Rule is to provide requirements and standards for continuous emissions monitoring to be conducted by specified large fossil fuel combustion facilities.
The provisions of this Rule shall apply to: electric power generation equipment subject to Title IV (Acid Deposition Control) of the federal Clean Air Act with nameplate generation capacities of at least 25 megawatts (MW); and to fossil fuel-fired steam generators with a rated heat input of 250 million British thermal units (MMBtu) or greater per hour.
1.3.1 For peaking units subject to this Rule, the NOx emissions concentrations may be measured and recorded using one of the methods provided under 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 75, Section 75.12(c) "Specific Provisions for Monitoring NOx Emissions (NOx and Diluent Gas Monitors: Gas-fired Peaking Units or Oil-fired Peaking Units"), rather than by CEMS as required by Part 3 herein.
This Rule has been in effect since June 22, 1977. The Rule in its present form is effective on February 16, 1994.
The requirements of this Rule arise from the provisions of the federal Clean Air Act and its amendments (42 U.S.C. Section 7401 et seq.)
The total equipment required for the continuous determination and recordkeeping of a gas concentration, emission rate or opacity measurement.
2.7.2 an average capacity factor of no more than ten (10) percent during the previous three (3) calendar years; and
2.7.4 a capacity factor of no more than 20 percent in each of those calendar years.
The owner or operator of the sources listed in Section 4.1 herein shall properly install, certify, operate and maintain in good working order continuous emissions monitoring systems (CEMS) to measure and maintain records of the pollutants listed in Subsections 4.2.1, 4.2.2 and 4.2.3 herein.
Fossil fuel-fired steam generators with a rated heat input of 250 MMBtu (63 million kilogram calories) or more per hour with a capacity factor of at least 30 percent per year, unless the source is subject to the provisions of Part 3 herein.
4.3 Pollutants to be Determined for this Part
4.3.1 Nitrogen oxides (NOx); and
4.3.2 carbon dioxide or oxygen; and
4.3.3 Sulfur dioxide (SO2), if control equipment is used.
4.4 Standards of Performance of CEMS
4.4.2 40 CFR Part 51, Appendix P; and
4.4.3 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart D, Section 60.45.
4.4.4 Equivalent standards may be used by mutual agreement of the District, Air Resources Board and Environmental Protection Agency.
4.5 Calibration Standards
4.6 Cycling Times
4.7 CEMS for SO2 and NOx
4.8 CEMS for CO2 and O2
5.2.6 a summary of actual monthly emissions from subject equipment which operated during the quarter.
