Illinois Administrative Code › Title 35 - ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION › Part 218 - ORGANIC MATERIAL EMISSION STANDARDS AND LIMITATIONS FOR THE CHICAGO AREA › Subpart II - FIBERGLASS BOAT MANUFACTURING MATERIALS › Section 218.892 - Testing and Monitoring Requirements

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
a) Testing to demonstrate compliance with the
				requirements of Section
				218.891
				of this Subpart shall be conducted by the owner or operator by May 1, 2012.
				Thereafter, testing shall be conducted within 90 days after a request by the
				Agency, or as otherwise specified in this Subpart. The testing shall be
				conducted at the expense of the owner or operator and the owner or operator
				shall notify the Agency in writing 30 days in advance of conducting the testing
				to allow the Agency to be present during testing.
b) Testing to demonstrate compliance with the
				monomer VOM content limitations for resin and gel coat materials in Section
				218.891(b)
				of this Subpart shall be conducted upon request of the Agency, or as otherwise
				specified in this Subpart, in accordance with SCAQMD 312-91, incorporated by
				reference in Section
				218.112
				of this Part.
c) The owner or
				operator of a source complying with this Subpart pursuant to Section
				218.891(d)
				shall comply with the following:
1) By May 1,
				2012, or upon initial start-up, whichever is later, and upon start-up of a new
				control device, conduct an initial performance test of the control device in
				accordance with this subsection (c) that demonstrates compliance with the
				emission limitation determined pursuant to Section
				218.891(d).
2) Subsequent to the initial performance test
				described in subsection (c)(1) of this Section, conduct at least one
				performance test per calendar year. Performance tests used to demonstrate
				compliance with Section
				218.891(d)
				shall be conducted at least six months apart, unless the performance test is
				being conducted following an exceedance of operating parameters as described in
				subsection (c)(3) of this Section, or per a request by the Agency.
3) Monitor and record relevant operating
				parameters, including the control efficiency of the control device and the
				amount of materials used in the fiberglass boat manufacturing process, during
				each control device performance test used to demonstrate compliance with
				Section
				218.891(d).
				The owner or operator shall continue to operate the fiberglass boat
				manufacturing process within the parameters until another performance test is
				conducted that demonstrates compliance with Section
				218.891(d).
				The owner or operator shall monitor the parameters at all times when the
				control device is in operation. If the fiberglass boat manufacturing process
				exceeds any operating parameter by more than 10 percent, the owner or operator
				shall conduct additional performance testing in accordance with this Section
				within 10 operating days after the exceedance.
4) The methods and procedures of Section
				218.105(d) and
				(f) shall be used for testing to demonstrate
				compliance with the requirements of Section
				218.891(d)
				of this Subpart, as follows:
A) To select the
				sampling sites, Method 1 or 1A, as appropriate, 40 CFR 60, appendix A,
				incorporated by reference at Section
				218.112
				of this Part. The sampling sites for determining efficiency in reducing VOM
				from the dryer exhaust shall be located between the dryer exhaust and the
				control device inlet, and between the outlet of the control device and the
				exhaust to the atmosphere;
B) To
				determine the volumetric flow rate of the exhaust stream, Method 2, 2A, 2C, or
				2D, as appropriate, 40 CFR 60, appendix A, incorporated by reference at Section
				218.112
				of this Part;
C) To determine the
				VOM concentration of the exhaust stream entering and exiting the control
				device, Method 25 or 25A, as appropriate, 40 CFR 60, appendix A, incorporated
				by reference at Section
				218.112
				of this Part. For thermal and catalytic afterburners, Method 25 must be used
				except under the following circumstances, in which case Method 25A must be
				used:
i) The allowable outlet concentration
				of VOM from the control device is less than 50 ppmv, as carbon;
ii) The VOM concentration at the inlet of the
				control device and the required level of control result in exhaust
				concentrations of VOM of 50 ppmv, or less, as carbon; and
iii) Due to the high efficiency of the
				control device, the anticipated VOM concentration at the control device exhaust
				is 50 ppmv or less, as carbon, regardless of inlet concentration. If the source
				elects to use Method 25A under this option, the exhaust VOM concentration must
				be 50 ppmv or less, as carbon, and the required destruction efficiency must be
				met for the source to have demonstrated compliance. If the Method 25A test
				results show that the required destruction efficiency apparently has been met,
				but the exhaust concentration is above 50 ppmv, as carbon, a retest is
				required. The retest shall be conducted using either Method 25 or 25A. If the
				retest is conducted using Method 25A and the test results again show that the
				required destruction efficiency apparently has been met, but the exhaust
				concentration is above 50 ppmv, as carbon, the source must retest again using
				Method 25;
D)
				Notwithstanding the criteria or requirements in Method 25, which specifies a
				minimum probe temperature of 129°C (265oF), the
				probe must be heated to at least the gas stream temperature of the dryer
				exhaust, typically close to 176.7oC
				(350oF); and
E) During testing, the fiberglass boat
				manufacturing operation shall be operated at representative operating
				conditions and flow rates.
5) If an afterburner is used to demonstrate
				compliance, the owner or operator shall:
A)
				Install, calibrate, operate, and maintain temperature monitoring devices with
				an accuracy of 3oC or 5oF
				on the emissions control system in accordance with Section
				218.105(d)(2)
				of this Part and in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications.
				Monitoring shall be performed at all times when the emissions control system is
				operating; and
B) Install,
				calibrate, operate and maintain, in accordance with manufacturer's
				specifications, a continuous recorder on the temperature monitoring devices,
				such as a strip chart, recorder or computer, with at least the same accuracy as
				the temperature monitor.
6) If a carbon adsorber is used to
				demonstrate compliance, the owner or operator shall use Agency and USEPA
				approved continuous monitoring equipment that is installed, calibrated,
				maintained, and operated according to vendor specifications at all times the
				control device is in use. The continuous monitoring equipment shall monitor the
				VOM concentration of each carbon adsorption bed exhaust or the exhaust of the
				bed next in sequence to be desorbed.
7) If an emissions control system other than
				an afterburner or carbon adsorber is used to demonstrate compliance, the owner
				or operator shall install, maintain, calibrate, and operate the monitoring
				equipment as set forth in the owner's or operator's plan approved by the Agency
				and USEPA pursuant to Section
				218.891(d).
