Amendments to Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources; Monitoring Requirements

Riepilogo

Today's action proposes to incorporate by reference into Performance Specification 1 (PS-1): Specifications and Test Procedures for Opacity Continuous Emission Monitoring Systems in Stationary Sources (40 CFR part 60, Appendix B) the standard practice developed by American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) entitled ``Standard Practice for Continuous Opacity Monitoring Manufacturers to Certify Design Conformance and Monitor Calibration,'' Document number D6216. This proposal is a supplement to actions published in the Federal Register on November 25, 1994 (59 FR 60585). ASTM D6216 helps to ensure that continuous opacity monitoring systems (COMS) meet the most current minimum design and calibration requirements. This proposal also contains revision to Subpart A, Secs. 60.13 and 60.17, as well as editorial corrections to PS-1 other than the incorporations by reference.
