Authority: IC 13-14-8; IC 13-17-3-4; IC 13-17-3-11

Affected: IC 13-15; IC 13-17

Sec. 11.

(a) Following the initial performance or compliance test to demonstrate compliance with the lead emission limits specified in sections 3 through 5 of this rule, the owner or operator of a secondary lead smelter shall conduct performance tests for lead compounds in accordance with the following schedule:
(1) Conduct an annual performance test for lead compounds from each process vent, no later than twelve (12) calendar months following the previous compliance test, unless the owner or operator of a secondary lead smelter installs and operates a CEMS meeting the requirements of the July 1, 2012, edition of 40 CFR 63.8 *.
(2) If an annual compliance test demonstrates that a process vent emitted lead compounds at one-tenth (0.1) milligram of lead per dry standard cubic meter or less during the time of the annual compliance test, the owner or operator of a secondary lead smelter may submit a written request to the U.S. EPA applying for an extension of up to twenty-four (24) calendar months from the previous compliance test to conduct the next compliance test for lead compounds.
(b) The owner or operator of a secondary lead smelter that vents fugitive dust shall:
(1) conduct an initial compliance test only; and
(2) not be required to conduct testing on an annual or biennial basis.

Nothing in this subsection shall prohibit the department from requesting a compliance test in accordance with 326 IAC 2-1.1-11.

(c) Test notification and reporting shall be conducted in compliance with 326 IAC 3-6.
(d) Following the initial performance or compliance test to demonstrate compliance with the total hydrocarbon emission limits in section 5(d) of this rule, the owner or operator of a secondary lead smelter shall conduct performance tests for total hydrocarbons emissions in accordance with the following schedule:
(1) Conduct an annual performance test for total hydrocarbon emissions from each process vent that has established limits for total hydrocarbons, no later than twelve (12) calendar months following the previous compliance test, unless the owner or operator of a secondary lead smelter installs and operates a CEMS meeting the requirements of the July 1, 2012, edition of 40 CFR 63.8 *.
(2) If an annual compliance test demonstrates that a process vent emitted total hydrocarbons at less than fifty percent (50%) of the allowable limit during the time of the annual compliance test, the owner or operator of a secondary lead smelter may submit a written request to U.S. EPA applying for an extension of up to twenty-four (24) calendar months from the previous compliance test to conduct the next compliance test for total hydrocarbons.
(e) Following the initial performance or compliance test to demonstrate compliance with the dioxin and furan emission limits specified in section 5(d) of this rule, the owner or operator of a secondary lead smelter shall conduct a performance test for dioxin and furan emissions from each process vent that has established limits for dioxins and furans at least once every six (6) years following the previous compliance test.
(f) The owner or operator of a secondary lead smelter shall conduct the performance tests specified in subsections (a), (d), and (e) under maximum representative operating conditions for the process. During the performance test, the owner or operator of a secondary lead smelter may operate the control device at maximum or minimum representative operating conditions for monitored control device parameters, whichever results in a lower emission reduction. Upon request, the owner or operator of a secondary lead smelter shall make available to the department any records necessary to determine the conditions of performance tests.
