(1) Applicability. The emission limitations set forth in Fl. Admin. Code R. 62-296.702, shall apply to fossil fuel steam generating facilities including one or more boilers which individually or in combination have a heat input greater than or equal to 30 million British thermal units per hour.
(2) Emission Limitations.
(a) Particulate Matter. No owner or operator of a fossil fuel steam generator shall cause, permit, or allow the emission of particulate matter in excess of 0.10 pounds per million BTU except as provided for in Rule 62-296.405 or 62-296.406 and 62-210.700, F.A.C.
(b) Visible Emissions. No owner or operator of a fossil fuel fired steam generator shall allow visible emissions the density of which is greater than 20 percent opacity except as provided for in Fl. Admin. Code R. 62-210.700, Excess Emissions, and in Fl. Admin. Code R. 62-296.405, for fossil-fuel steam generators with a heat input of greater than 250 million BTU per hour.
(3) Test Methods and Procedures. All emissions tests performed pursuant to the requirements of this rule shall comply with the following requirements.
(a) The test method for visible emissions shall be EPA Method 9, as described at 40 C.F.R. part 60, Appendix A-4, adopted and incorporated by reference at Fl. Admin. Code R. 62-204.800 A transmissometer may be used and calibrated in accordance with 40 C.F.R. part 60, Appendix B.
(b) The test method for particulate matter emissions shall be EPA Method 17, as described at 40 C.F.R. part 60, Appendix A-6, EPA Method 5B as described at 40 C.F.R. part 60, Appendix A-3; or EPA Method 5F, as described at 40 C.F.R. part 60, Appendix A-3; adopted and incorporated by reference at Fl. Admin. Code R. 62-204.800 The minimum sample volume shall be 30 dry standard cubic feet. EPA Method 5, as described at 40 C.F.R. part 60, Appendix A-3, adopted and incorporated by reference at Fl. Admin. Code R. 62-204.800, may be used with the filter temperature at no more than 320 degrees Fahrenheit. For EPA Method 17, stack temperature shall be less than 375 degrees Fahrenheit. EPA Method 3 or 3A with Orsat analysis, as described at 40 C.F.R. part 60, Appendix A-2, adopted and incorporated by reference at Fl. Admin. Code R. 62-204.800, shall be used when oxygen based F factor computed according to EPA Method 19, as described at 40 C.F.R. part 60, Appendix A-7, adopted and incorporated by reference at Fl. Admin. Code R. 62-204.800, is used in lieu of heat input. Use Acetone wash with Method 5 or 17.
(c) Test procedures shall meet all applicable requirements of Fl. Admin. Code Chapter 62-297
