NR 439.09NR 439.09 Methods and procedures for continuous emission monitoring. The owner or operator of a source conducting continuous emission monitoring under s. NR 439.095 shall use the methods and procedures listed in this section to install, calibrate, maintain and operate a continuous emissions monitoring system, or other methods and procedures approved, in writing, by the department:

NR 439.09(1)(1) Continuous emissions monitoring systems for measuring opacity shall comply with all the provisions and requirements in Performance Specification 1 in 40 CFR part 60, Appendix B, incorporated by reference in s. NR 484.04 (21).

NR 439.09(2)(2) Continuous emissions monitoring systems for measuring sulfur dioxide or nitrogen oxides shall comply with all the provisions and requirements in Performance Specification 2 in 40 CFR part 60, Appendix B or, for affected units, the performance specifications in 40 CFR part 75, Appendices A to I, incorporated by reference in s. NR 484.04 (21) and (27).

NR 439.09(3)(3) Continuous emissions monitoring systems for measuring oxygen or carbon dioxide shall comply with all the provisions and requirements in Performance Specification 3 in 40 CFR part 60, Appendix B or, for affected units, the performance specifications in 40 CFR part 75, Appendices A to I, incorporated by reference in s. NR 484.04 (21) and (27).

NR 439.09(4)(4) Continuous emissions monitoring systems for measuring carbon monoxide shall comply with all the provisions and requirements in Performance Specification 4 in 40 CFR part 60, Appendix B, incorporated by reference in s. NR 484.04 (21).

NR 439.09(5)(5) Continuous emissions monitoring systems for measuring total reduced sulfur shall comply with all the provisions and requirements in Performance Specification 5 in 40 CFR part 60, Appendix B, incorporated by reference in s. NR 484.04 (21).

NR 439.09(6)(6) Continuous emission rate monitoring systems shall comply with all the provisions and requirements in Performance Specification 6 in 40 CFR part 60, Appendix B, incorporated by reference in s. NR 484.04 (21).
