The source is a 4-stroke lean burn natural gas engine emergency generator rated at 770 horsepower(hp). The proposed testing is the initial performance testing required by applicable regulations for new sources. Applicable regulations: • 40 CFR 63 Subpart ZZZZ National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Stationary Reciprocating Internal Combustion Engines(RICE NESHAP) • Permit including Section 3.0 General Conditions Section JJ General Emissions Testing and Reporting Requirements • 15A NCAC 2D .2600 Source Testing • 40 CFR 60 Subpart JJJJ,Standards of Performance for Stationary Spark Ignition Internal Combustion Engines The primary purpose for testing is to demonstrate compliance with 40 CFR 60 Subpart JJJJ. Compliance with 40 CFR 63 Subpart ZZZZ is met by complying with the emission limits in 40 CFR 60 Subpart JJJJ. 1641 Mail Service Center,Raleigh,North Carolina 27699-1641 217 West Jones Street, Raleigh,North Carolina 27603 Phone:919-707-8401/Fax:919-715-0718 Internet:www,ncair.org An Equal Opportunity 1 Affirmative Action Employer—Made in part by Recycled Paper Mr. Gil Vinzani May 7, 2013 Page 2 The following emission standards apply to new spark ignition, lean burn burn gas-fired engines constructed after July 1, 2010.

Approval of the protocol does not exempt the tester from the minimum requirements of the applicable methods and 60 Subpart JJJJ requirements. Since no deviations from the applicable testing methodology were addressed in the test protocol,the testing should be conducted in strict accordance with the requirements of EPA Methods 3A, 4, 7E, 10, 18, and 25A. Testing must be conducted at full load± 10%. Testing proposed operating process rate of 770 hp is acceptable. If you have questions,please contact me at(919)707-8413 or gary.saunders@ncdenr.gov.
