Oregon Administrative Rules › Chapter 340 - DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY › Division 226 - GENERAL EMISSION STANDARDS › Section 340-226-0130 - Highest and Best Practicable Treatment and Control: Typically Achievable Control Technology (TACT)

Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 7, July 1, 2024
For existing sources, the emission limit established will be
				typical of the emission level achieved by emissions units similar in type and
				size. For new and modified sources, the emission limit established will be
				typical of the emission level achieved by well controlled new or modified
				emissions units similar in type and size that were recently installed. TACT
				determinations will be based on information known to DEQ while considering
				pollution prevention, impacts on other environmental media, energy impacts,
				capital and operating costs, cost effectiveness, and the age and remaining
				economic life of existing emission control devices. DEQ may consider emission
				control technologies typically applied to other types of emissions units where
				such technologies could be readily applied to the emissions unit. If an
				emission limitation is not feasible, a design, equipment, work practice,
				operational standard, or combination thereof, may be required.
(1) Existing Sources. An existing emissions
			 unit must meet TACT for existing sources if:
(a) The emissions unit is not already subject
			 to emission standards for the regulated pollutant under OAR 340 divisions 224,
			 230, 340-232-0010  through 340-232-0240, OAR 340 divisions 234, 236, or 238,
			 340-240-0110  through 340-240-0180, 340-240-0310(1), 340-240-0320  through
			 340-240-0430;
(b) The source is
			 required to have a permit;
(c) The
			 emissions unit has emissions of criteria pollutants equal to or greater than 5
			 tons per year of particulate or 10 tons per year of any gaseous pollutant;
			 and
(d) DEQ determines that air
			 pollution control devices and emission reduction processes in use for the
			 emissions unit do not represent TACT, and that further emission control is
			 necessary to address documented nuisance conditions, address an increase in
			 emissions, ensure that the source is in compliance with other applicable
			 requirements, or protect public health or welfare or the environment.
Oregon Administrative Rules › Chapter 340 - DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY › Division 226 - GENERAL EMISSION STANDARDS › Section 340-226-0140 - Highest and Best Practicable Treatment and Control: Additional Control Requirements for Stationary Sources of Air Contaminants

Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 7, July 1, 2024
In addition to other applicable requirements, DEQ may establish
				control requirements by permit if necessary as specified in sections (1)
				through (5):
(1) Requirements will be
			 established to prevent violation of an ambient air quality standard caused or
			 projected to be caused substantially by emissions from the source as determined
			 by modeling, monitoring, or a combination thereof. For existing sources, DEQ
			 will conduct monitoring to confirm a violation of an ambient air quality
			 standard.
(2) Requirements will be
			 established to prevent significant impairment of visibility in Class I areas
			 caused or projected to be caused substantially by a source as determined by
			 modeling, monitoring, or a combination thereof. For existing sources, DEQ will
			 conduct monitoring to confirm visibility impairment.
(3) A requirement applicable to a major
			 source will be established if it has been adopted by EPA but has not otherwise
			 been adopted by the EQC.
(4) An
			 additional control requirement will be established if requested by the owner or
			 operator of a source.
(5)
			 Requirements will be established if necessary to protect public health or
			 welfare for the following air contaminants and sources not otherwise regulated
			 under OAR 340 divisions 200 through 268:
(a)
			 Chemical weapons; and
(b)
			 Combustion and degradation by-products of chemical weapons.

Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 7, July 1, 2024
(1)
			 Process weight is the total weight of all materials introduced into a piece of
			 process equipment. Solid fuels charged are considered part of the process
			 weight, but liquid and gaseous fuels and combustion air are not.
(a) For a cyclical or batch operation, the
			 process weight per hour is derived by dividing the total process weight by the
			 number of hours in one complete operation, excluding any time during which the
			 equipment is idle.
(b) For a
			 continuous operation, the process weight per hour is derived by dividing the
			 process weight by a typical period of time, as approved by DEQ.

Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 7, July 1, 2024
(1) DEQ may approve alternative emission
			 controls for VOC and NOx emissions in a Standard ACDP or Oregon Title V
			 Operating Permit for use within a single source such that a specific emission
			 limit is exceeded, provided that:
(a) Such
			 alternatives are not specifically prohibited by a rule or permit condition.
(b) Net total emissions for each
			 regulated pollutant from all emissions units involved (i.e., "under the
			 bubble") are not increased above the PSEL.
(c) The owner or operator of the source
			 demonstrates the net air quality benefit under OAR
			 340-224-0520.
(d) No other air contaminants
			 including malodorous, toxic or hazardous pollutants are substituted.
(e) BACT and LAER, where required by a
			 previously issued permit pursuant to OAR 340 division 224 (NSR), OAR 340
			 division 238 (NSPS), and OAR 340 division 244 (NESHAP), where required, are not
			 relaxed;
(f) Specific emission
			 limits are established for each emission unit involved ("under the bubble")
			 such that compliance with the PSEL can be readily determined;
(g) The owner or operator of the source
			 applies for a permit or permit modification and such application is approved by
			 DEQ.
(h) The emissions unit that
			 reduces its emissions achieves the reductions by reducing its allowable
			 emission rate, and not by reducing production, throughput, or hours of
			 operation.

				violates the following emission limits and requirements:
(1) Particulate Emissions:
(a) For incinerator facilities constructed or
			 modified on or after March 13, 1990, emissions from each stack shall not exceed
			 0.015 grains per dry standard cubic foot of exhaust gases corrected to seven
			 percent O2 at standard conditions;

Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 7, July 1, 2024
(1) Temperature and
			 Residence Time. Each incinerator must be designed and operated to maintain
			 combustion gases at a minimum temperature of 1,800° F. for at least one
			 second residence time. For a multi-chamber incinerator, these parameters must
			 be met after the primary combustion chamber, which must be maintained at no
			 less than 1,000° F.
(2)
			 Auxiliary Burners. Each incinerator must be designed and operated with
			 automatically controlled auxiliary burners capable of maintaining the
			 combustion chamber temperatures specified in section (1) of this rule, and must
			 have sufficient auxiliary fuel capacity to maintain said
			 temperatures.
(3) Interlocks. Each
			 incinerator must be designed and operated with an interlock system that:
(a) Prevents charging until the final
			 combustion chamber reaches 1,800° F.;
(b) For batch-fed incinerators, prevents
			 recharging until each combustion cycle is complete;
(c) Ceases charging if the incinerator
			 temperature falls below either 1,800° F. for any continuous 15-minute
			 period; and
(d) Ceases charging if
			 carbon monoxide levels exceed 150 ppm, corrected to seven percent O2 over a
			 continuous 15-minute period. Existing incinerators may request from the
			 Department, and the Department may grant, an exemption for installing an
			 interlock system, if it can be shown to the satisfaction of the Department that
			 such a system would not allow sufficient flexibility in operation, or that
			 significant technical or economic constraints would prevent
			 retrofitting.
