Fla. Admin. Code Ann. R. 62-210.710 - Emission Limits during Transient Modes of Operation
(1) A facility may request that the
Department establish by permit one or more unit-specific secondary emission
limits to apply during a specified transient mode of operation in lieu of the
unit's primary emission limit in Chapter 62-296, F.A.C., or the State
Implementation Plan of the State of Florida, identified in 40 C.F.R. §
52.520. Transient modes of operation include, but are not limited to,
periods of startup, shutdown, or fuel switching. In order to be eligible for a
secondary emission limit applicable during a specified transient mode of
operation, the facility must provide to the Department data and documentation
sufficient to:
(a) Describe the specific
operating conditions that mark the commencement and completion of the transient
mode of operation, the duration of those operating conditions, and the
operational variations in the process and control equipment and operations
being permitted that could affect the frequency or duration of the transient
mode of operation; and,
(b)
Demonstrate that the frequency and duration of the transient mode of operation
will be limited to the greatest extent practicable; and,
(c) Demonstrate that the unit's emission
control strategy for compliance with the otherwise applicable category-specific
primary emission limit or unit-specific primary emission limit contained in the
State Implementation Plan of the State of Florida, identified in 40 C.F.R. §
52.520, is technically infeasible during the transient mode of operation;
and,
(d) Demonstrate that the unit
is unable to comply with the otherwise applicable category-specific primary
emission limit or unit-specific primary emission limit contained in the State
Implementation Plan of the State of Florida, identified in 40 C.F.R. §
52.520; and,
(e) Define best
practices for the unit for limiting the extent and duration of emissions of the
regulated air pollutant during the transient mode of operation; and,
(f) Determine a secondary emission limit that
(1) reflects best practices and (2) minimizes the extent and duration of
emissions of the regulated air pollutant during the transient mode of operation
to the greatest extent practicable; and,
(g) Demonstrate that the facility has
implemented or will implement recordkeeping practices (e.g. continuous
emissions monitoring, parametric data collection and storage, contemporaneous
operating logs) sufficient to demonstrate compliance with the unit-specific
secondary emission limit.
(2) A unit-specific secondary emission limit
established pursuant to subsection
62-210.710(1),
F.A.C., may be in a different form than the category-specific primary emission
limit or unit-specific primary emission limit contained in the State
Implementation Plan of the State of Florida, identified in 40 C.F.R. §
52.520. Any secondary emission limit applicable during a transient mode
of operation must be in one of the following forms:
(a) A unit-specific numerical emission limit
equivalent to emissions levels during the transient mode of operation under
best practices for the unit;
(b) A
unit-specific numerical emission limit established under a federal New Source
Performance Standard (NSPS) or National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutant (NESHAP) that applies during a transient mode of operation and is
representative of best practices for the unit;
(c) A unit-specific federal NSPS- or
NESHAP-based work practice standard that applies during a transient mode of
operation and is representative of best practices for the unit, or
(d) A unit-specific work practice standard
representative of best practices for the unit.
