N.Y. Comp. Codes R. & Regs. Tit. 6 § 233.4 - Testing and monitoring
(a) The
owner and/or operator of a pharmaceutical or cosmetic manufacturing process
must follow notification requirements, protocol requirements and test
procedures of Part 202 of this Title for testing and monitoring of these
processes.
(b) The test procedures
to determine compliance must be approved by the commissioner and be consistent
with Appendix A of part 60 of title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations (see
table 1, section
200.9 of this
Title). Depending upon conditions at a test site, one of the following test
methods from appendix A of 40 CFR 60 (see table 1, section
200.9 of this
Title) must be used to determine volatile organic compound (VOC) concentrations
of a gas stream at the inlet and outlet of a control device:
(1) Method 18, Measurement of Gaseous Organic
Compound Emissions by Gas Chromatography.
(2) Method 25, Determination of Total Gaseous
Organic Emissions as Carbon.
(3)
Method 25A, Determination of Total Gaseous Organic Concentration Using a Flame
Ionization Analyzer.
(4) Methods
not listed above must be approved in advance by the department's representative
and the United States Environmental Protection Agency.
(c) Any facility which is not subject to the
control requirements of this Part because its annual potential to emit volatile
organic compounds are below the applicability levels, must maintain records in
a format acceptable to the commissioner's representative that verify the
facility's annual potential to emit VOC. Upon request, these records must be
submitted to the department.
(d) If
an air cleaning device is used, continuous monitors for the following
parameters must be installed, periodically calibrated, and operated at all
times that the associated process equipment and control equipment are
operating:
(1) an exhaust gas temperature of
all incinerators;
(2) temperature
rise across a catalytic incinerator bed;
(3) breakthrough of volatile organic
compounds on a carbon adsorption unit; and
(4) outlet gas temperature of a refrigerated
condenser;
(5) temperature of
nonrefrigerated condenser coolant supply system; or
(6) any other continuous monitoring or
recording device required by the commissioner for the purpose of demonstrating
compliance with the control requirements of this Part.
(e) Each monitor must be equipped with a
recording device.
(f) Each monitor
must be calibrated quarterly.
(g)
Each monitor must operate at all times while the associated control equipment
is operating.
