an operating hour schedule shall submit, in
writing, to the TNRCC [Texas Air Control
Board] and any local air pollution agency
having jurisdiction, biennially after the ini-
tial demonstration of compliance, documen-
tation of the actual recorded hours of engine
operation since the previous emission test.
and an estimate of the date of the next
required sampling.
(f)[(e)] The owner or operator of
any stationary gas turbine rated less than 30
MW using steam or water injection to com-
ply with the emission specifications of
117.205 [of this title] or 117.207 of this
title shall either:
(1) install, calibrate, maintain,
and operate a CEMS in compliance with
subsection (b) of this section or a PEMS in
compliance with subsection (c) of this sec-
tion; or
(2) install, calibrate, maintain,
and operate a continuous monitoring system
to monitor and record the average hourly
fuel and steam or water consumption. The
system shall be accurate to within 5.0%.
The steam-to-fuel or water-to-fuel ratio
monitoring data shall constitute the method
for demonstrating continuous compliance
with the applicable emission specification
of 117.205 [of this title] or 117.207 of
this title.
(g) The owner or operator of any
low annual capacity factor stationary gas
turbine or stationary internal combustion
engine as defined in 117.10 of this title
shall record the operating time with an
elapsed run time meter approved by the
Executive Director.
(h)[(f)] The owner or operator of
any gas-fired boiler or process heater firing
gaseous fuel which contains more than 50%
H, by volume, shall sample, analyze, and
record every three hours the fuel gas com-
position to comply with the emission speci-
fications of 117.205 [of this title] or
117 207 of this title. The total H, volume
flow in all gaseous fuel streams to the unit
will be divided by the total gaseous volume
flow to determine the volume percent of H,
in the fuel supply to the unit Fuel gas
analysis shall be tested according to Amerin-
can Society of Testing and Materials
(ASTM) Method D1945-81 or ASTM
Method D-2650-83, or other methods which
are demonstrated to the satisfaction of the
Executive Director to be equivalent. A gas-
eous fuel stream containing 99% H, by
volume or greater may use the following
procedure to be exempted from the sam-
pling and analysis requirements of this sub-
section.
(I) A fuel gas analysis shall
[must] be performed initially using one of
the test methods in this subsection to dem-
onstrate that the gaseous fuel stream is 99%
H, by volume or greater
19 TexReg 46 January 4, 1994(2) The process flow diagram of
the process unit which is the source of the
H shall be suplied to the TNRCC [Texas
Ar Control lp.ud (TACB)] to illustrate the
source and supply of the hydrogen stream.
(3) (No change.)
(i) [(g)] After the initial demonstra-
tion of compliance required by 117. 211 of
this title, compliance with either 117.205
[of this title] or 117. 207 of this title, as
applicable, shall be determined by the meth-
ods required in this section. Compliance
with the emission limitations may also be
determined at the discretion of the Execu-
tive Director using any TNRCC [TACB]
compliance method.
(j)[(h)] If compliance with
117.205 of this title is selected, no unit
subject to 117.205 of this title shall be
operated at an emission rate higher than that
allowed by the emission specifications of
117.205 of this title. If compliance with
117.207 of tlus title is selected, no unit
subject to 117.207 of this title shall be
operated at an emission rate higher than that
approved by the Executive Director
pursuant to 117.215(b)(4)
[117.215(b)(2)] of this title (relating to
Final Control Plan Procedures).
(k)[(i)] The owner or operator of
any low annual capacity factor boiler, [or]
process heater, stationary gas turbine, or
stationary internal combustion engine, as
defined in 117.10 of this title, shall [must]
notify the Executive Director within seven
days if the Btu/yr or hour-per-year
mimi(hr/yr) limit specified in 117. 10 of
this title, as appropriate, is exceeded. If
the Btu/yr or hr/yr limit, as appropriate, is
exceeded, the exemption from the emission
specifications of 117.205 [117.205(a)(3)]
of this title shall be permanently withdrawn
Within 90 [301 days after loss of the exemp-
tion, the owner or operator shall [must]
submit a comphance plan detailing a plan to
meet the applicable compliance limit as
soon as possible, but no later than 24
months after exceeding the Btu/yr or hr/yr
limit, as appropriate Included with this
compliance plan, the owner or operator
shall [mustl submit a schedule of incre-
ments of progress for the installation of the
required control equipment. This schedule
shall be subject to the review and approval
of the Executive Director.
117.215. Final Control Plan Procedures.
(a) For sources complying with
117.205 of this title (relating to Emission
Specifications), the owner or operator of an
affected source shall submit a final control
report to show compliance with the require-
ments of 117 205 of this title by the date
specified in 117520(6) [117.520(4)] of
this title (relating to Compliance ScheduleFor Commercial, Institutional, and Indus-
trial Combustion Sources). The report shall
include a list of all affected units showing
the method of control of nitrogen oxides
(NO,) emissions for each unit and the re-
sults of testing required in 117.211 of this
title (relating to Initial Demonstration of
Compliance).
(b) For sources complying with
117.207 of this title (relating to Alternative
Plant-Wide Emission Specifications), the
owner or operator of an affected source
shall submit a final control plan to show
attainment of the requirements of 117. 207
of this title by the date specified in
117.520(6) [117. 520(4)] of this title. The
owner or operator shall:
(1) assign to each affected
boiler or process heater [unit] the maxi-
mum allowable NO, emission rate in pound
per million Btu (rolling 30-day average), or
in pounds per hour (block one-hour aver-
age) while firing gaseous or liquid fuel,
which are allowable for that unit under the
requirements of 117.207 of this title;[.]
(2) assign to each affected sta-
tionary gas turbine the maximum allow-
able NOS emission in parts per million by
volume at 15% oxygen, dry basis on a
block one-hour average;
(3) assign to each affected sta-
tionary internal combustion engine the
maximum allowable NO emission rate in
grams per horse-power-hour on a block
one-hour average;
(4)[(2)] submit a list to the Ex-
ecutive Director for approval of the maxi-
mum allowable NO emission rates
identified in paragraph (1) of this subsection
and maintain a copy of the approved list for
verification of continued compliance with
the requirements of 117.207 of this title;
and
(5) submit a description of the
NO control method used to achieve com-
pliance with 117.207 of this title, and the
results of testing for each unit in accordance
with the requirements of 117.211 of this
title. For boilers and process heaters com-
plying with a pound per million Btu emis-
sion limit on a rolling 30-day average, this
information may be submitted according to
the schedule given in 117.520(4) of this
title.
(6)[(3)] submit a list summariz-
ing the results of testing of each unit at
maximum rated capacity, in accordance
with the requirements of 117.211(e), and
(f)(2) and (3) [117.520] of this title.
(c) For sources complying with
117.223 of this title (relating to Source
Cap), the owner or operator of an af-
fected source shall submit a final control
plan to show attainment of the require-Texas Register *
