methods and procedures, the test methods in 40 CFR Part 60, Appendix A or other methods and
procedures as specified in this section, except as provided in 40 CFR 60.8(b).
iii. In determining compliance with the visible emissions standards in Section 2.1 A.3.b or c, above,the
owner or operator shall use 40 CFR Part 60 Appendix A,Method 9(i.e.,Method 9)and the procedures
in 40 CFR 60.11, with the following additions:
(A)The minimum distance between the observer and the emission source shall be 4.57 meters(15 feet).
(B) The observer shall,when possible,select a position that minimizes interference from other fugitive
emission sources (e.g., mad dust). The required observer position relative to the sun (Method 9,
Section 2.1)must be followed.
iv. Compliance with opacity standards in this part shall be determined by conducting observations in
accordance with Method 9. For purposes of determining initial compliance,the minimum total time of
observations shall be 3 hours (thirty 6-minute averages) for the performance test or other set of
observations(meaning those fugitive-type emission sources subject only to an opacity standard).
