1 For purposes of calculating non-exempt, potential to emit emissions for comparison with the threshold value in column (c), (d), (e) or (f) in the table the owner or operator of a source would:

- combine non-exempt, potential to emit emissions for each contaminant for all stacks within each of the 4 stack categories,

- compare each group of non-exempt, potential to emit emissions against the respective threshold found in column (c), (d), (e) or (f) in the table

- if any group exceeds it’s respective threshold in column (c), (d), (e) or (f), consider all non-exempt, potential to emit emissions from the source in determining compliance with the applicable standard or control requirement.

NR 445.07 History History: CR 02-097: cr. Register June 2004 No. 582, eff. 7-1-04; CR 07-076: am. Tables A, B and C Register July 2008 No. 631, eff. 8-1-08; correction in (1) (b) 2. made under s. 13.92 (4) (b) 6., Stats., Register August 2008 No. 632.

NR 445.08 NR 445.08 Compliance requirements.

NR 445.08(1) (1) Compliance determination. Determination of compliance shall be done while the source is operating under the conditions required by permit or order resulting in the greatest emissions of the hazardous air contaminant, or absent a permit or order, by using the maximum theoretical emissions from the source.

NR 445.08(2) (2) Compliance methods. The owner or operator of a source shall achieve compliance with the emission limitations and control requirements in s. NR 445.07 (1), (2) or (3) for each hazardous air contaminant by doing one or any combination of the following. A source unable to meet the requirements of s. NR 445.07 (6) (a) and (b) may not use par. (a) by itself or in combination with other methods to achieve compliance under this subsection.

NR 445.08(2)(a) (a) Limiting non-exempt, potential to emit emissions from the source of each hazardous air contaminant to less than the applicable threshold in column (c), (d), (e) or (f) of Table A, B or C of s. NR 445.07.

NR 445.08(2)(b) (b) Limiting the quantity, concentration or duration of non-exempt, potential to emit emissions from the source of each hazardous air contaminant that has a standard expressed as an ambient air concentration in Table A or B of s. NR 445.07 so that the ambient air concentration off the source property is less than the concentration allowed under column (g) of the table.

NR 445.08(2)(c) (c) Limiting the quantity, concentration or duration of non-exempt, potential to emit emissions of each hazardous air contaminant with a control requirement in column (i) of Table A, B or C of s. NR 445.07 having a unit risk factor established by either the EPA or the California air resources board, so as not to cause an ambient air concentration off the source property that results in an inhalation impact greater than 1 x 10-6. The inhalation impact is determined by the following equation:

inhalation impact = (inhalation impact concentration annual average) x (unit risk factor)

where:

inhalation impact concentration annual average is the annual average concentration of a contaminant in micrograms per cubic meter (mg/m3)

unit risk factor for the contaminant is the unit risk factor value established by either EPA or the California air resources board and is expressed in reciprocal micrograms per cubic meter (mg/m3)-1

NR 445.08(2)(d) (d) Altering the release height or dispersion characteristics of each hazardous air contaminant in Table A, B or C of s. NR 445.07 such that the alteration results in the source’s ability to meet par. (a), (b) or (c) or sub. (3) (a) 1. or (b) 1.

NR 445.08(2)(e) (e) Limiting the concentration of each hazardous air contaminant that has a standard expressed as an ambient air concentration in Table A or B of s. NR 445.07 in the stack to less than the concentration allowed under column (g) of the table for that contaminant.
