NR 428.08(2)(g)4.b.b. The initial emissions performance test shall include a determination of the capacity load point of the emissions unit’s maximum NOx emissions rate based on one 30 minute test run at each capacity load point for which the unit is operated, other than for startup and shutdown, in the load ranges of 25 to 50 percent, 50 to 75 percent, and 75 to 100 percent, or other load ranges approved by or required by the department in advance.
NR 428.08(2)(g)4.c.c. The emissions performance test shall determine compliance based on the average of three test runs that are at least 60 minutes performed at the capacity load determined to have the maximum NOx emission rate under subd. 4. b.
NR 428.08(2)(g)4.d.d. An additional performance test shall be conducted according to subd. 4. b. within 90 days of completing a physical change in, or change in the method of operation that causes an increase of the hourly potential to emit of the NOx emissions rate.
NR 428.08(2)(g)4.e.e. A performance test is not required for a fuel used only for startup or for a fuel constituting less than 1 percent on an energy equivalent basis of the emissions unit’s fuel consumption within the most recent 12 consecutive month time period.
NR 428.08(3)(3)Exceptions.
NR 428.08(3)(a)(a) In lieu of the exceptions under s. NR 439.075 (4), all of the following exceptions apply to the testing required under sub. (2) (g):
NR 428.08(3)(a)1.1. The department may grant a written waiver of a scheduled test if any of the following apply:
NR 428.08(3)(a)1.a.a. The direct stationary source associated with the emissions point subject to the testing requirement will be ceasing operation within one year of a scheduled test.
NR 428.08(3)(a)1.b.b. The most recently completed results from a test conducted according to the methods and procedures specified under s. NR 439.07 for the direct stationary source demonstrate that the emissions of the air contaminant for which compliance emissions testing is required under this section are 50 percent or less of the applicable emission limitation. If a waiver from a test is granted, the owner or operator shall then conduct the next test according to the schedule under sub. (2) (g) 4.
NR 428.08(3)(a)1.c.c. The direct stationary source associated with the emissions point subject to the testing requirement has not operated more than 360 hours in the 12-month period prior to the scheduled test date.
NR 428.08(3)(a)1.d.d. The most recently completed test, conducted according to the methods and procedures specified under s. NR 439.07, was conducted less than 12 months prior to the date that testing would be required under par. (b).
NR 428.08(3)(a)1.e.e. For each fuel used, the emissions unit is certified to meet emissions standards under 40 CFR part 60 that are equal to or more restrictive than the applicable emission limitation under s. NR 428.04 or 428.05, and the emissions unit is installed and configured according to the manufacturer’s specifications.
NR 428.08(3)(a)1.f.f. The emissions unit is operated only to restart electric generation in the event of a complete loss of facility power.
