(1) Compliance with the NOx emission requirement listed in Subsection R307-316-4(1) shall be determined according to the following procedures:
- (a) U.S.EPA Reference Method 7E, Determination of Nitrogen Oxides Emissions from Stationary Sources;
- (b) a continuous in-stack nitrogen oxide monitor or equivalent verification system in compliance with 40 CFR Part 60 Appendix B Specification 2;
- (c) other EPA-approved testing methods acceptable to the director; or
- (d) combustion analysis as part of a regular maintenance schedule.
(2) Compliance with the CO emissions requirement listed in Subsection R307-316-4(1) shall be determined according to the following procedures:
- (a) U.S.EPA Reference Method 10, Determination of Carbon Monoxide Emissions from Stationary Sources;
- (b) a continuous in-stack carbon monoxide monitor or equivalent verification system in compliance with 40 CFR Part 60 Appendix B Specification 4;
- (c) other EPA-approved testing methods acceptable to the director; or
- (d) combustion analysis as part of a regular maintenance schedule.
(3) Compliance Determination shall be conducted according to the following frequency:
- (a) once every three years for units with a rated heat input capacity greater than or equal to 10 MMBtu/hr, except for boilers subject to Subsection R307-316-6(1)(b) and Subsection R307-316-6(2)(b); and
- (b) once every five years for units with a rated heat input capacity less than 10 MMBtu/hr but no more than 5 MMBtu/hr.
(4) Provided an emissions test is conducted within the same calendar year as the test required in Subsection R307-316-6(3), an owner or operator may use the following emissions tests to comply with Subsection R307-316-6(3):
- (a) periodic monitoring or testing of a unit as required in a Title V permit; or
- (b) relative accuracy testing for continuous emissions monitoring verification pursuant to 40 CFR Part 60 Appendix B Specification 2 and 40 CFR Part 60 Appendix B Specification 4.
- (5) The compliance schedule for this rule shall begin on November 1, 2024.
