From any grid casting facility any gases that contain lead in excess of 0.40 milligram of lead per dry standard cubic meter of exhaust (0.000175 gr/dscf). NR 440.52(3)(a)2.2. From any paste mixing facility any gases that contain in excess of 1.00 milligram of lead per dry standard cubic meter of exhaust (0.000437 gr/dscf). NR 440.52(3)(a)3.3. From any 3-process operation facility any gases that contain in excess of 1.00 milligram of lead per dry standard cubic meter of exhaust (0.000437 gr/dscf). NR 440.52(3)(a)4.4. From any lead oxide manufacturing facility any gases that contain in excess of 5.0 milligrams of lead per kilogram of lead feed (0.010 lb/ton). NR 440.52(3)(a)5.5. From any lead reclamation facility any gases that contain in excess of 4.50 milligrams of lead per dry standard cubic meter of exhaust (0.00197 gr/dscf). NR 440.52(3)(a)6.6. From any other lead-emitting operation any gases that contain in excess of 1.00 milligram of lead per dry standard cubic meter of exhaust (0.000437 gr/dscf). NR 440.52(3)(a)7.7. From any affected facility other than a lead reclamation facility any gases with greater than zero percent opacity measured according to Method 9 of 40 CFR part 60, Appendix A, incorporated by reference in s. NR 440.17, and rounded to the nearest whole percentage. NR 440.52(3)(a)8.8. From any lead reclamation facility any gases with greater than 5% opacity, measured according to Method 9 of 40 CFR part 60, Appendix A, incorporated by reference in s. NR 440.17, and rounded to the nearest whole percentage. NR 440.52(3)(b)(b) When 2 or more facilities at the same plant (except the lead oxide manufacturing facility) are ducted to a common control device, an equivalent standard for the total exhaust from the commonly controlled facilities shall be determined as follows: where:
Se is the equivalent standard for the total exhaust stream
Sa is the actual standard for each exhaust stream ducted to the control device
N is the total number of exhaust streams ducted to the control device
is the dry standard volumetric flow rate of the effluent gas stream from each facility ducted to the control device is the total dry standard volumetric flow rate of all effluent gas streams ducted to the control device NR 440.52(4)(4) Monitoring of emissions and operations. The owner or operator of any lead-acid battery manufacturing facility subject to the provisions of this section and controlled by scrubbing systems shall install, calibrate, maintain and operate a monitoring device or devices that measure and record the pressure drop across the scrubbing systems at least once every 15 minutes. The monitoring device shall have an accuracy of ± 5% over its operating range. NR 440.52(5)(a)(a) In conducting the performance tests required in s. NR 440.08, the owner or operator shall use as reference methods and procedures the test methods in Appendix A of 40 CFR part 60, incorporated by reference in s. NR 440.17, or other methods and procedures as specified in this subsection, except as provided in s. NR 440.08 (2). NR 440.52(5)(b)(b) The owner or operator shall determine compliance with the lead standards in sub. (3), except sub. (3) (a) 4., as follows: NR 440.52(5)(b)1.1. Method 12 shall be used to determine the lead concentration and, if applicable, the volumetric flow rate (Qsda) of the effluent gas. The sampling time and sample volume for each run shall be at least 60 minutes and 0.85 dscm (30 dscf). NR 440.52(5)(b)2.2. When different operations in a 3-process operation facility are ducted to separate control devices, the lead emission concentration (C) from the facility shall be determined as follows: where:
C is the concentration of lead emissions for the entire facility, mg/dscm (gr/dscf)
