NR 440.77(7)(a)(a) How do I conduct the initial and annual performance test? NR 440.77(7)(a)1.1. All performance tests shall consist of a minimum of 3 test runs conducted under conditions representative of normal operations. NR 440.77(7)(a)2.2. You shall document that the waste burned during the performance test is representative of the waste burned under normal operating conditions by maintaining a log of the quantity of waste burned (as required in sub. (11) (a) 2. a.) and the types of waste burned during the performance test. NR 440.77(7)(a)3.3. All performance tests shall be conducted using the minimum run duration specified in Table 1 of this section. NR 440.77(7)(a)5.5. Method 3A or 3B of 40 CFR part 60, Appendix A, incorporated by reference in s. NR 440.17 (1), shall be used for gas composition analysis, including measurement of oxygen concentration. Method 3A or 3B shall be used simultaneously with each method. NR 440.77(7)(a)6.6. All pollutant concentrations, except for opacity, shall be adjusted to 7% oxygen using the following equation: where:
Cadj is the pollutant concentration adjusted to 7% oxygen
Cmeas is the pollutant concentration measured on a dry basis
(20.9-7) is 20.9% oxygen - 7% oxygen (defined oxygen correction basis)
20.9 is the oxygen concentration in air, expressed as percent
%O2 is the oxygen concentration measured on a dry basis, expressed as percent
NR 440.77(7)(a)7.7. You shall determine dioxins/furans toxic equivalency according to the following procedures: NR 440.77(7)(a)7.b.b.

NR 440.77(7)(a)7.c.c. Sum the products calculated in accordance with subd. 7. b. to obtain the total concentration of dioxins/furans emitted in terms of toxic equivalency. NR 440.77(7)(b)(b) How are the performance test data used? You use the results of the performance tests to demonstrate compliance with the emission limitations in Table 1 of this section. NR 440.77(8)(a)(a) How do I demonstrate initial compliance with the emission limitations and establish the operating limits? You shall conduct an initial performance test, as required under s. NR 440.08, to determine compliance with the emission limitations in Table 1 of this section and to establish operating limits using the procedure in sub. (6) (b) or (c). The initial performance test shall be conducted using the test methods listed in Table 1 of this section and the procedures in sub. (7) (a). NR 440.77(8)(b)(b) By what date must I conduct the initial performance test? The initial performance test shall be conducted within 60 days after your CISWI unit reaches the charge rate at which it will operate, but no later than 180 days after its initial startup. NR 440.77(9)(a)(a) How do I demonstrate continuous compliance with the emission limitations and the operating limits? NR 440.77(9)(a)1.1. You shall conduct an annual performance test for particulate matter, hydrogen chloride and opacity for each CISWI unit as required under s. NR 440.08 to determine compliance with the emission limitations. The annual performance test shall be conducted using the test methods listed in Table 1 of this section and the procedures in sub. (7) (a). NR 440.77(9)(a)2.2. You shall continuously monitor the operating parameters specified in sub. (6) (b) or established under sub. (6) (c). Operation above the established maximum or below the established minimum operating limits constitutes a deviation from the established operating limits. Three-hour rolling average values shall be used to determine compliance (except for baghouse leak detection system alarms) unless a different averaging period is established under sub. (6) (c). Operating limits do not apply during performance tests. NR 440.77(9)(a)3.3. You shall only burn the same types of waste used to establish operating limits during the performance test. NR 440.77(9)(b)(b) By what date must I conduct the annual performance test? You shall conduct annual performance tests for particulate matter, hydrogen chloride and opacity within 12 months following the initial performance test. Subsequent annual performance tests shall be conducted within 12 months following the previous one. NR 440.77(9)(c)1.1. You may test less often for a given pollutant if you have test data for at least 3 years, and all performance tests for the pollutant (particulate matter, hydrogen chloride or opacity) over 3 consecutive years show that you comply with the emission limitation. In this case, you do not have to conduct a performance test for that pollutant for the next 2 years. You shall conduct a performance test during the 3rd year and no later than 36 months following the previous performance test. NR 440.77(9)(c)2.2. If your CISWI unit continues to meet the emission limitation for particulate matter, hydrogen chloride or opacity, you may choose to conduct performance tests for these pollutants every 3rd year, but each test shall be within 36 months of the previous performance test. NR 440.77(9)(c)3.3. If a performance test shows a deviation from an emission limitation for particulate matter, hydrogen chloride or opacity, you shall conduct annual performance tests for that pollutant until all performance tests over a 3-year period show compliance. NR 440.77(9)(d)(d) May I conduct a repeat performance test to establish new operating limits? NR 440.77(9)(d)1.1. You may conduct a repeat performance test at any time to establish new values for the operating limits. The department may request a repeat performance test at any time. NR 440.77(9)(d)2.2. You shall repeat the performance test if your feed stream is different than the feed streams used during any performance test used to demonstrate compliance.
