Fla. Admin. Code Ann. R. 62-296.602 - Primary Lead-Acid Battery Manufacturing Operations
(1) Emission Limiting Standards. No owner or
operator of a primary lead-acid battery manufacturing operation subject to Rule
62-296.600, F.A.C., shall cause,
allow, or permit the discharge into the atmosphere of lead in excess of the
following emission standards, in grains of lead per dry standard cubic foot,
nor shall visible emissions exceed the following standards, in percent opacity:
(a) Grid casting sources: 0.000176 grains and
0% opacity.
(b) Paste mixing
sources: 0.00044 grains and 0% opacity.
(c) Three-process operation sources: 0.00044
grains and 0% opacity.
(d) Lead
oxide manufacturing sources: 0.0005 grains and 0% opacity.
(e) Lead reclamation sources: 0.00198 grains
and 5% opacity.
(f) Any other lead
sources: 0.00044 grains and 0% opacity.
(2) Collection Systems. Collection systems
representing RACT shall be installed and operated to capture, contain, and
control lead emissions resulting from all lead-emitting processes including
charging, melting, tapping, and casting. No lead emissions shall be vented to
the outside of any enclosed or partially enclosed process unless RACT is
employed to control such emission.
(3) Attainment Demonstration. As part of the
initial application for the permit required pursuant to subsection
62-296.600(3),
F.A.C., the owner or operator of a facility subject to the requirements of this
rule shall demonstrate to the Department that, after the application of RACT,
the facility shall not cause or contribute to a violation of the national
ambient air quality standard for lead. The demonstration shall be made using
air quality models as provided in 40 C.F.R. Part 51, Appendix W, adopted and
incorporated by reference at Rule
62-204.800, F.A.C., and shall
address both stack and fugitive emissions.
