months of initial startup for new sources). The following units are
only required to conduct a tune-up every five years: seasonal boilers
(shutdown for 7 consecutive months or 210 consecutive days each 12-
month period due to seasonal conditions; only biomass or oil),
limited-use boilers, oil-fired boilers with heat input capacity of<= 5
MMBtu/hr, and units with oxygen trim systems, as defined in 40 CFR

while burning the type of fuel (or fuels in the case of boilers that
routinely burn two types of fuels at the same time) that provided the
majority of the heat input to the boiler over the 12 months prior to the
tune-up.
Permit No. 05446R09

C. As applicable, inspect the burner, and clean or replace any
components of the burner as necessary. The Permittee may delay the
burner inspection until the next scheduled unit shutdown, but must
inspect each burner at least once every 36 months (72 months for 5-
year tune-ups).
D. Inspect the flame pattern, as applicable, and adjust the burner as
necessary to optimize the flame pattern. The adjustment should be
consistent with the manufacturer's specifications,if available.
E. Inspect the system controlling the air-to-fuel ratio, as applicable, and
ensure that it is correctly calibrated and functioning properly. The
Permittee may delay the air to fuel ratio inspection until the next
scheduled unit shutdown,but must conduct the inspection at least
once every 36 months (72 months for 5-year tune-ups).
F. Optimize total emissions of carbon monoxide. This optimization
should be consistent with the manufacturer's specifications, if
available, and with any nitrogen oxide requirement to which the unit
is subject.
G. Measure the concentrations in the effluent stream of carbon monoxide
in parts per million,by volume, and oxygen in volume percent, before
and after the adjustments are made (measurements may be either on a
dry or wet basis, as long as it is the same basis before and after the
adjustments are made). Measurements may be taken with a portable
CO analyzer.
c. Notification and Reporting Requirements - In addition to the notification and
reporting requirements of the Environmental Protection Agency(EPA),the

iii. Compliance Report must be prepared by March 1 of every other year(or
every five years depending on the frequency of the tune-up requirements)
starting March 1 the year following the first periodic tune-up, and submitted
upon request, unless the source experiences any deviations from the
applicable requirements then the report must be submitted by March 15. The
report must meet the requirements of 40 CFR 63.11225(b)(1-4).

at high fire or typical operating load, before and after the tune-
up of the boiler.
II. A description of any corrective actions taken as a part of the
tune-up of the boiler. .
III. The type and amount of fuel used over the 12 months prior to
the tune-up of the boiler but only if the unit was physically
