(1) Emission Limiting Standards. No owner or operator of a secondary lead smelting operation subject to Fl. Admin. Code R. 62-296.600, shall cause, allow, or permit the discharge into the atmosphere of lead in excess of the following emission standards, in grains of lead per dry standard cubic foot, nor shall visible emissions exceed the following standards, in percent opacity:
(a) Blast and slag furnaces: 0.010 grains and 3% opacity at the exit point of the emissions control device.
(b) Blast furnace charging: 0.002 grains and 3% opacity at the exit point of the emissions control device.
1. Visible emissions from the closed charge doors on the blast furnace shall not exceed 3% opacity during furnace operation.
2. Visible emissions from the charge doors on the blast furnace shall not exceed 6% opacity during charging operation.
(c) Blast and slag furnaces, slag and product tapping: 0.002 grains and 3% opacity at the exit point of the emissions control device.
(d) Melt kettles and pot furnaces: 0.0002 grains and 3% opacity.
(e) Battery cracking operations: 3% opacity.
(f) Slag handling and processing operations: 0.0000333 grains and 3% opacity.
(2) Collection Systems. Collection systems representing RACT shall be installed and operated to capture, contain, and control lead emissions resulting from the storage, transport, and processing of all lead-bearing materials and products at secondary lead smelting operations. No lead emissions shall be vented to the outside of any enclosed or partially enclosed process unless RACT is employed to control such emissions.
(3) Attainment Demonstration. As part of the initial application for the permit required pursuant to subsection 62-296.600(3), F.A.C., the owner or operator of a facility subject to the requirements of this rule shall demonstrate to the Department that, after the application of RACT, the facility shall not cause or contribute to a violation of the national ambient air quality standard for lead. The demonstration shall be made using air quality models as provided 40 C.F.R. part 51, Appendix W, adopted and incorporated by reference at Fl. Admin. Code R. 62-204.800, and shall address both stack and fugitive emissions.
