OAR 340-223-0060
Alternative BART Requirements for the Foster-Wheeler Boiler at the Boardman Coal-Fired Power Plant (Federal Acid Rain Program Facility ORISPL Code 6106) Based Upon Operation Until 2040 or Beyond
(1)
Subject to OAR 340-223-0050 (Alternative Regional Haze Requirements for the Foster-Wheeler Boiler at the Boardman Coal-Fired Power Plant (Federal Acid Rain Program Facility ORISPL Code 6106)), the owner or operator of the Foster-Wheeler boiler at the Boardman coal-fired power plant may elect to comply with this rule and 340-223-0070 (Additional NOx Requirements for the Foster-Wheeler Boiler at the Boardman Coal-Fired Power Plant (Federal Acid Rain Program Facility ORISPL Code 6106) Based Upon Operation Until 2040 or Beyond) in lieu of compliance with OAR 340-223-0030 (BART Requirements for the Foster-Wheeler Boiler at the Boardman Coal-Fired Power Plant (Federal Acid Rain Program Facility ORISPL Code 6106)).(2)
Emissions limits:(a)
On and after July 1, 2011, nitrogen oxide emissions must not exceed 0.28 lb/mmBtu heat input as a 30-day rolling average and 0.23 lb/mmBtu heat input as a 12-month rolling average.(A)
If it is demonstrated by July 1, 2012 that the emissions limits in (a) cannot be achieved with combustion controls, the Department may grant an extension of compliance to July 1, 2014.(B)
If an extension is granted, on and after July 1, 2014 the nitrogen oxide emissions must not exceed 0.19 lb/mm Btu heat input as a 30-day rolling average, and the emissions limits of 0.28 lb/mmBtu heat input as a 30-day rolling average and 0.23 lb/mmBtu heat input as a 12-month rolling average no longer apply.(b)
On and after July 1, 2014, sulfur dioxide emissions must not exceed 0.12 lb/mmBtu heat input as a 30-day rolling average.(c)
On and after July 1, 2014, particulate matter emissions must not exceed 0.012 lb/mmBtu heat input as determined by compliance source testing.(d)
During periods of startup and shutdown, the following emissions limits apply instead of the limits in subsections (2)(a) through (c):(A)
Sulfur dioxide emissions must not exceed 1.20 lb/mmBtu, as a 3-hour rolling average;(B)
Nitrogen oxide emissions must not exceed 0.70 lb/mmBtu, as a 3-hour rolling average; and(C)
Particulate matter emissions must be minimized to extent practicable pursuant to approved startup and shutdown procedures in accordance with OAR 340-214-0310 (Excess Emissions and Emergency Provision: Planned Startup and Shutdown).(3)
Compliance demonstration. Using the procedures specified in section (4) of this rule:(a)
Compliance with a 30-day rolling average limit must be demonstrated within 180 days of the compliance date specified in section (2) of this rule.(b)
Compliance with a 12-month rolling average must be demonstrated within 12 months of the compliance date specified in section (2) of this rule.(4)
Compliance Monitoring and Testing.(a)
Compliance with the emissions limits in (2)(a), (b) and (d)(A)-(B) must be determined with a continuous emissions monitoring system (CEMS) installed, operated, calibrated, and maintained in accordance with the acid rain monitoring requirements in 40 CFR Part 75 as in effect on December 9, 2010.(A)
The hourly emissions rate in terms of lb/mmBtu heat input must be recorded each operating hour, including periods of startup and shutdown.(B)
The daily average emissions rate must be determined for each boiler operating day using the hourly emissions rates recorded in (A), excluding periods of startup and shutdown.(C)
30-day rolling averages must be determined using all daily average emissions rates recorded in (B) whether or not the days are consecutive.(D)
12-month rolling averages must be determined using calendar month averages based on all daily averages during the calendar month.(b)
Compliance with the particulate matter emissions limit in (2)(c) must be determined by EPA Methods 5 and 19 as in effect on December 9, 2010.(A)
An initial test must be conducted by January 1, 2015.(B)
Subsequent tests must be conducted in accordance with a schedule specified in the Oregon Title V Operating Permit, but not less than once every 5 years.(C)
All testing must be performed in accordance with the Department’s Source Sampling Manual as in effect on December 9, 2010. [NOTE: DEQ manual is published with OAR 340-200-0035 (Reference Materials).](7)
Notifications and Reports.(a)
The Department must be notified in writing within 7 days after any control equipment (including combustion controls) used to comply with emissions limits in section (2) begin operation.(b)
For nitrogen oxide and sulfur dioxide limits based on a 30-day rolling average, a compliance status report, including CEMS data, must be submitted within 180 days of the compliance dates specified in section (2).(c)
If applicable, a compliance status report for the 12-month rolling average nitrogen oxide limit in section (2)(a) must be submitted by August 1, 2012.(d)
For particulate matter, a compliance status report, including a source test report, must be submitted within 60 days of completing the initial compliance test specified in section (4)(b).
