Additionally, the following is the list of conditions that the Department has revised or added in this plan approval from the previous plan approval.
1. (Revised Condition #002) [Compliance with this streamlined permit condition will assure compliance with the provisions specified in 40 CFR 60.43b(f)] [Additional authority for part (a) of this permit condition is also derived from 25 Pa. Code Sections 127.1 and 127.12] [Additional authority for part (b) of this permit condition is also derived from 25 Pa. Code Section 123.41]
(a) Except during periods of start-up and shutdown, the permittee shall not permit the emission of visible air contaminants into the atmosphere from Source ID 033A in such a manner that the opacity of the emission is equal to or greater than 15% by using EPA reference Method 9 in appendix A-4 of 40 CFR Part 60.
(b) The permittee shall not permit the emission of visible air contaminants into the atmosphere from Source ID 033A in such a manner that the opacity of the emission is equal to or greater than the following limitations:
(i) 20% for a period or periods aggregating more than 3 minutes in any 1 hour.
(ii) 60% at any time.
2. (Revised Condition #006) At least 60 days prior to the performance of any testing required herein, the permittee shall submit two (2) copies of a pretest protocol to the Department for review in accordance with the provisions of 25 Pa. Code Chapter 139. The protocol shall describe the test methods and procedure to be used in the performance of testing, and shall include dimensioned sketches of the exhaust system showing the locations of all proposed sampling ports. The protocol shall also describe how the process rate and heat input will be determined during each test run, and also identify all other process data which will be monitored and recorded during testing including the percentage of oxygen in the flue gas, and any other process data using the continuous system for monitoring NOx required by 40 CFR Section 60.48(b). Additionally, the operational parameters for excess oxygen, atomizing steam pressure and flue gas temperature (after the economizer) of Source ID 033A shall be monitored and recorded during testing.
