Nev. Admin. Code § 445B.2203 - Emissions of particulate matter: Fuel-burning equipment

1. No person may cause or permit PM₁₀ emissions resulting from the combustion of fuel in fuel-burning equipment in excess of the quantity set forth in the following formulas:

(a) For maximum input of heat equal to or greater than 4 million Btu's per hour, but less than or equal to 10 million Btu's per hour, the allowable emission is 0.6 of a pound per million Btu's of input of heat.

(b) For maximum input of heat greater than 10 million Btu's per hour, but less than 4,000 million Btu's per hour, the allowable emissions must be calculated using the following equation:

Y = 1.02X^-0.231

(c) For maximum input of heat equal to or greater than 4,000 million Btu's per hour, the emission must be calculated using the following equation:

Y = 17.0X^-0.568

2. For the purposes of paragraphs (b) and (c) of subsection 1:

(a) "X" means the maximum operating rate in million Btu's per hour.

(b) "Y" means the allowable rate of emission in pounds per million Btu's.
