Protocol for Nitrogen Oxide Emissions Testing of ES-9 and ES-9a Overcladding Units
Proposed Test Date: February 6,2019,To Be Performed by McHale Environmental
Dear Mr.Miller:
The North Carolina Division of Air Quality(DAQ)has reviewed the protocol submittal form(PSF) for the
nitrogen oxide(NOx)testing of the ES-9 and ES-9a overcladding units. The proposed methods are
acceptable for the required NOx testing as discussed below.
Emissions Sources ES-9 and ES-9a each consist of overcladding units(ES-9: Cell 4 and four Cell 5 units and
ES-9a: Cells 6,7, and remaining Cell 5 units)venting to a hydrated lime injection dry scrubber fabric filter
system(1DS and 2DS,respectively)which vent to a selective catalytic reduction system(I SCR and 2SCR,
respectively).
15A NCAC 2Q .0317 Avoidance Conditions for 15A NCAC 2D .0530 Prevention of Significant
Deterioration applies. Permit Conditions 2.2.13 and C specify the NOx limits and test requirements for Cells
4, 5, 6, and 7 units. Permit Conditions 2.2.C.1.c and 2.2.C.1.d require testing of uncontrolled and dry scrubber
controlled NOx emissions from individual small and large torch over-cladding units(Cells 4,5;ID No.ES-9)
and individual new technology torch over-cladding units(Cells 5,6,and 7,ES-9a). This testing must be
revalidated annually and each time the type of filter material is changed to determine the"pounds of NOx per
unit-hour to be used in demonstrating compliance with the PSD avoidance condition."
McHale Environmental proposed EPA Method 7E. The PSF proposed EPA Methods 1 through 4 and
205 (if needed),including assigning a dry molecular weight of 29.0.
The proposed methods are acceptable. Approval of this sampling protocol does not exempt the tester from
the minimum requirements of the sampling methods. Any deviations remain subject to approval by DAQ. If
there are questions concerning this matter,please contact me at(919)707-8415 or greg .oneal ,ncdenr.gov.
Sincerely,
