Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 7, July 1, 2024
(1) Policy. Recent technological developments
			 have enhanced the degree of malodorous emission control possible for the kraft
			 pulping process. While recognizing that complete malodorous and particulate
			 emission control is not presently possible, consistent with the meteorological
			 and geographical conditions in Oregon, it is hereby declared to be the policy
			 of DEQ to:
(a) Require, in accordance with a
			 specific program and time table for all sources at each operating mill, the
			 highest and best practicable treatment and control of atmospheric emissions
			 from kraft mills through the utilization of technically feasible equipment,
			 devices, and procedures. Consideration will be given to the economic life of
			 equipment, which when installed, complied with the highest and best practicable
			 treatment requirement.
(b) Require
			 degrees and methods of treatment for major and minor emission points that will
			 minimize emissions of odorous gases and eliminate ambient odor nuisances.
(c) Require effective monitoring
			 and reporting of emissions and reporting of other data pertinent to air quality
			 or emissions. DEQ will use these data in conjunction with ambient air data and
			 observation of conditions in the surrounding area to develop and revise
			 emission and ambient air standards, and to determine compliance therewith.
(d) Encourage and assist the kraft
			 pulping industry to conduct a research and technological development program
			 designed to progressively reduce kraft mill emissions, in accordance with a
			 definite program, including specified objectives and time schedules.
Oregon Administrative Rules › Chapter 340 - DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY › Division 234 - EMISSION STANDARDS FOR WOOD PRODUCTS INDUSTRIES › Section 340-234-0210 - Kraft Pulp Mills: Emission Limitations

Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 7, July 1, 2024
(1) Emission of
			 Total Reduced Sulfur (TRS):
(a) Recovery
			 Furnaces:
(A) The emissions of TRS from each
			 recovery furnace placed in operation before January 1, 1969, may not exceed 10
			 ppm and 0.15 Kg/metric ton (0.30 pound/ton) of production as daily arithmetic
			 averages;
(B) TRS emissions from
			 each recovery furnace placed in operation after January 1, 1969, and before
			 September 25, 1976, or any recovery furnace modified significantly after
			 January 1, 1969, and before September 25, 1976, to expand production must be
			 controlled such that the emissions of TRS may not exceed 5 ppm and 0.075
			 Kg/metric ton (0.150 pound/ton) of production as daily arithmetic
			 averages.
Oregon Administrative Rules › Chapter 340 - DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY › Division 234 - EMISSION STANDARDS FOR WOOD PRODUCTS INDUSTRIES › Section 340-234-0220 - More Restrictive Emission Limits

Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 7, July 1, 2024
The DEQ may establish more restrictive emission limits than the
				numerical emission standards contained in OAR
				340-234-0210 and maximum allowable daily mill site emission limits in kilograms or pounds
				per day for an individual mill upon a finding by DEQ that:
(1) The individual mill is located or is
			 proposed to be located in a special problem area or an area where ambient air
			 standards are exceeded or are projected to be exceeded or where the emissions
			 will have a significant impact in an area where the standards are exceeded; or
(2) An odor or nuisance problem
			 has been documented at any mill, in which case the TRS emission limits may be
			 reduced below the regulatory limits; or DEQ may require the mill to undertake
			 an odor emission reduction study program; or
(3) Other rules which are more stringent
			 apply.

Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 7, July 1, 2024
(1) Total Reduced Sulfur (TRS). Each mill
			 must continuously monitor TRS using the following:
(a) The monitoring equipment must determine
			 compliance with the emission limits and reporting requirements established by
			 OAR 340-234-0200  through 340-234-0270, and must continuously sample and record
			 concentrations of TRS;
(b) The
			 sources monitored must include, but are not limited to individual recovery
			 furnaces, and lime kilns. All sources must be monitored down-stream of their
			 respective control devices, in either the ductwork or the stack, using the DEQ
			 Continuous Monitoring Manual;
(c)
			 Unless otherwise authorized or required by permit, at least once per year,
			 vents from other sources as required in OAR 340-234-0210(1)(e), other sources,
			 must be sampled to demonstrate the representativeness of the emission of TRS
			 using EPA Method 16, 16A, 16B or continuous emission monitors. Sampling using
			 these EPA methods must consist of three separate consecutive runs of one-hour
			 each using the DEQ Source Sampling Manual. Continuous emissions monitors must
			 be operated for three consecutive hours using the DEQ Continuous Monitoring
			 Manual. All results must be reported to DEQ;
(d) Smelt dissolving tank vents must be
			 sampled for TRS quarterly except that testing may be semi-annual when the
			 preceding six source tests were less than 0.0124 gram/Kg BLS (0.025 pound/ton
			 BLS) using EPA Method 16, 16A, 16B or continuous emission monitors. Sampling
			 using these EPA methods must consist of three separate consecutive runs of
			 one-hour each using the DEQ Source Sampling Manual.
