(1) Fossil Fuel Fired Steam Generators.
(a) A continuous monitoring system for the
measurement of opacity shall be installed, calibrated, maintained, and operated
on any fossil fuel fired steam generator of greater than 250 million BTU per
hour for each boiler except where:
(i)
natural gas or oil or a mixture of natural gas and oil is the only fuel
burned,
(ii) the source is able to
comply with the applicable particulate matter and opacity regulations without
using particulate matter collection equipment, and
(iii) the source has never been found through
any administrative or judicial proceeding to be in violation of any visible
emission standard or requirements.
(b) A continuous monitoring system for the
measurement of sulfur dioxide shall be installed, calibrated, maintained, and
operated on any fossil fuel fired steam generator of greater than 250 million
BTU per hour heat input which has installed sulfur dioxide pollution control
equipment.
(c) A continuous
monitoring system for the measurement of nitrogen oxides shall be installed,
calibrated, maintained, and operated on fossil fuel fired steam generators of
greater than 1000 million BTU per hour heat input when such facility is located
in an Air Quality Control Region where the director has specifically determined
that a control strategy for nitrogen dioxide is necessary to attain the
national standards, unless the source owner or operator demonstrates during
source compliance tests as required by the director that such a source emits
nitrogen oxides at levels 30 percent or more below the emission
standard.
(d) A continuous
monitoring system for the measurement of percent oxygen or carbon dioxide shall
be installed, calibrated, maintained, and operated on any fossil fuel fired
steam generators where measurements of oxygen or carbon dioxide in the flue gas
are required to convert either sulfur dioxide or nitrogen oxides continuous
emission monitoring data, or both, to units of the emission standard.
(2) Nitric Acid Plants.
Each nitric acid plant of greater than 300 tons per day
production capacity, the production capacity being expressed as 100 percent
acid, and located in an Air Quality Control Region where the director has
specifically determined that a control strategy for nitrogen dioxide is
necessary to attain the national standard, shall install, calibrate, maintain,
and operate a continuous monitoring system for the measurement of nitrogen
oxides for each nitric acid producing installation.
(3) Sulfuric Acid Plants - Burning and
Production.
Each sulfuric acid plant of greater than 300 tons per day
production capacity, the production being expressed as 100 percent acid, shall
install, calibrate, maintain and operate a continuous monitoring system for the
measurement of sulfur dioxide for each sulfuric acid producing installation
within such plant.
(4)
Petroleum Refineries - Fluid Bed Catalytic Cracking Unit Catalyst Regenerator.
Each catalyst regenerator for fluid bed catalytic cracking
units of greater than 20,000 barrels per day fresh feed capacity shall install,
calibrate, maintain and operate a continuous monitoring system for the
measurement of opacity.
