NR 440.644(4)(b)(b) Performance tests shall be conducted as follows:
NR 440.644(4)(b)1.1. The owner or operator of an affected facility shall conduct an initial performance test, as required under s. NR 440.08 (1), except as described under par. (j). The owner or operator of an affected facility shall thereafter conduct a performance test each month except as described under subd. 4. and pars. (g) and (j). Initial and monthly performance tests shall be conducted according to the procedures in this subsection.
NR 440.644(4)(b)2.2. The owner or operator of an affected facility who elects to use a VOC emission reduction system with a control device that destroys VOC (e.g., incinerator), as described under pars. (f) and (g), shall repeat the performance test when directed by the department or when the owner or operator elects to operate the capture system or control device at conditions different from the most recent determination of overall reduction efficiency. The performance test shall be conducted in accordance with the procedures described under par. (f) 2. a. to d.
NR 440.644(4)(b)3.3. The owner or operator of an affected facility who seeks to comply with the equipment design and performance specifications, as described under par. (j), shall repeat the performance test when directed by the department or when the owner or operator elects to operate the capture system or control device at conditions different from the most recent determination of control device efficiency or measurement of capture system retention time or face velocity. The performance test shall be conducted in accordance with the procedures described under par. (f) 2. b.
NR 440.644(4)(b)4.4. The owner or operator of each tread end cementing operation and each green tire spraying operation using only water-based sprays (inside and outside or both) containing less than 1.0% by weight of VOC is not required to conduct a monthly performance test as described in par. (d). In lieu of conducting a monthly performance test, the owner or operator of each tread end cementing operation and each green tire spraying operation shall submit formulation data or the results of Method 24 analysis annually to verify the VOC content of each tread end cement and each green tire spray material, provided the spraying formulation has not changed during the previous 12 months. If the spray material formulation changes, formulation data or Method 24 analysis of the new spray shall be conducted to determine the VOC content of the spray and reported within 30 days as required under sub. (7) (j).
NR 440.644(4)(c)(c) For each undertread cementing operation, each sidewall cementing operation, each green tire spraying operation where organic solvent-based sprays are used, each Michelin-A operation, each Michelin-B operation, and each Michelin-C automatic operation where the owner or operator seeks to comply with the uncontrolled monthly VOC use limits, the owner or operator shall use the following procedure to determine compliance with the applicable (depending upon duration of compliance period) uncontrolled monthly VOC use limit specified under sub. (3) (a) 1. b., 2. b., 6. b., 7. b., 8. b., 9. b. and 10. b. If both undertread cementing and sidewall cementing are performed at the same affected facility during a month, then the kg/mo limit specified under sub. (3) (a) 1. b. shall apply for that month.
NR 440.644(4)(c)1.1. Determine the density and weight fraction VOC (including dilution VOC) of each cement or green tire spray from its formulation or by analysis of the cement of green tire spray using Method 24 of Appendix A of 40 CFR part 60, incorporated by reference in s. NR 440.17. If a dispute arises, the department may require an owner or operator who used formulation data to analyze the cement or green tire spray using Method 24 of Appendix A, 40 CFR part 60, incorporated by reference in s. NR 440.17.
NR 440.644(4)(c)2.2. Calculate the total mass of VOC used at the affected facility for the month (Mo) by the following procedure:
NR 440.644(4)(c)2.a.a. For each affected facility for which cement or green tire spray is delivered in batch or via a distribution system that serves only the affected facility:
where “a” equals the number of different cements or green tire sprays used during the month that are delivered in batch or via a distribution system that serves only a single affected facility.
NR 440.644(4)(c)2.b.b. For each affected facility for which cement or green tire spray is delivered via a common distribution system that also serves other affected or existing facilities:
1) Calculate the total mass of VOC used for all of the facilities served by the common distribution system for the month (M):
where “b” equals the number of different cements or green tire sprays used during the month that are delivered via a common distribution system that also serves other affected or existing facilities.
2) Determine the fraction (Fo) of M used at the affected facility by comparing the production records and process specifications for the material cemented or sprayed at the affected facility for the month to the production records and process specifications for the material cemented or sprayed at all other facilities served by the common distribution system for the month or by another procedure acceptable to the administrator.
3) Calculate the total monthly mass of VOC used at the affected facility for the month (Mo):
Mo = MFo
NR 440.644(4)(c)3.3. Determine the time duration of the monthly compliance period (Td).
NR 440.644(4)(d)(d) For each tread end cementing operation and each green tire spraying operation where water-based cements or sprays containing 1.0%, by weight, of VOC or more are used (inside, outside, or both) that do not use a VOC emission reduction system, the owner or operator shall use the following procedure to determine compliance with the VOC emission per tire limit specified under sub. (3) (a) 3., 5. a. and b. and 7. a. and b.
NR 440.644(4)(d)1.1. Determine the density and weight fraction VOC as specified under par. (c) 1.
NR 440.644(4)(d)2.2. Calculate the total mass of VOC used at the affected facility for the month (Mo ) as specified under par. (c) 2.
NR 440.644(4)(d)3.3. Determine the total number of tires cemented or sprayed at the affected facility for the month (To ) by the following procedure:
NR 440.644(4)(d)3.a.a. For a tread end cementing operation, To equals the number of tread or combined tread/sidewall components that receive an application of tread end cement for the month.
NR 440.644(4)(d)3.b.b. For a green tire spraying operation that uses water-based inside green tire sprays, To equals the number of green tires that receive an application of water-based inside green tire spray for the month.
NR 440.644(4)(d)3.c.c. For a green tire spraying operation that uses water-based outside green tire sprays, To equals the number of green tires that receive an application of water-based outside green tire spray for the month.
NR 440.644(4)(d)4.4. Calculate the mass of VOC used per tire cemented or sprayed at the affected facility for the month (G):
NR 440.644(4)(d)5.5. Calculate the mass of VOC emitted per tire cemented or sprayed at the affected facility for the month (N):
N = G
NR 440.644(4)(e)(e) For each bead cementing operation that does not use a VOC emission reduction system, the owner or operator shall use the following procedure to determine compliance with the VOC emission per bead limit specified under sub. (3) (a) 4.
