a If you are conducting stack tests to demonstrate compliance and your performance tests for this pollutant for at least 2 consecutive years show that your emissions are at or below this limit, you can skip testing according to § 63.7515 if all of the other provisions of § 63.7515 are met. For all other pollutants that do not contain a footnote “a”, your performance tests for this pollutant for at least 2 consecutive years must show that your emissions are at or below 75 percent of this limit in order to qualify for skip testing.

b Incorporated by reference, see § 63.14.

c If your affected source is a new or reconstructed affected source that commenced construction or reconstruction after June 4, 2010, and before April 1, 2013, you may comply with the emission limits in Table 11, 12, or 13 to this subpart until January 31, 2016. On and after January 31, 2016, but before October 6, 2025 you may comply with the emission limits in Table 14 to this subpart. On and after October 6, 2025 you must comply with the emission limits in this Table 1.

d An owner or operator may determine compliance with the carbon monoxide emissions limit using CO2 as a diluent correction in place of oxygen as described in § 63.7525(a)(1). EPA Method 19 F-factors in 40 CFR part 60, appendix A-7, and EPA Method 19 equations in 40 CFR part 60, appendix A-7, must be used to generate the appropriate CO2 correction percentage for the fuel type burned in the unit and must also take into account that the 3-percent oxygen correction is to be done on a dry basis. The methodology must account for any CO2 being added to, or removed from, the emissions gas stream as a result of limestone injection, scrubber media, etc. This methodology must be detailed in the site-specific monitoring plan developed according to § 63.7505(d).
