When these terms are used in rules incorporated by reference, the following definitions shall apply:
(1) "EPA Administrator" is synonymous with "Executive Director".
(2) "Affected facility" is synonymous with "large MWC unit".
(3) "State" is synonymous with "Department of Environmental Quality" or "DEQ".
(4) "State plan" is a program that the State is responsible for developing and implementing to achieve compliance with the emission guidelines in Subpart Cb of 40 CFR Part 60.
PART 3. INCINERATORS
252:100-17-2. Applicability
As adopted in Oklahoma Register May 15, 2001 (18 Ok Reg 1489) effective June 1, 2001.
This Part applies to incinerators not subject to New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) or any other Parts in this Subchapter.
252:100-17-2.1. Exemptions
As adopted in Oklahoma Register June 15, 1998 (15 Ok Reg 2591) effective June 25, 1998.
Thermal oxidizers, flares and any other air pollution control devices are exempt from the requirements of this Part.
252:100-17-2.2. Definitions
As adopted in Oklahoma Register June 15, 1998 (15 Ok Reg 2591) effective June 25, 1998.
The following words and terms when used in this Subchapter shall have the following meaning unless the context clearly indicates otherwise:
"Capacity" means amount of specified wastes a unit is designed to burn. Capacity may be expressed as pounds per hour or tons per day.
"Primary combustion chamber" means the initial incinerator chamber where waste is charged, ignited and burned.
"Secondary burner" means a supplemental burner in the secondary chamber for the purpose of maintaining a minimum temperature and to insure the complete combustion of volatile gases and smoke.
252:100-17-3. Opacity
As adopted in Oklahoma Register June 15, 1998 (15 Ok Reg 2591) effective June 25, 1998.
See 252:100-25-3.
252:100-17-4. Particulate matter
As adopted in Oklahoma Register June 15, 1998 (15 Ok Reg 2591) effective June 25, 1998.
Fly ash or other particulate matter shall not exceed quantities greater than the allowable emission rate. The allowable emissions for incinerators with capacities of 100 lb/hr or greater are set forth in Appendix A of this Chapter. The allowable emissions for incinerators with capacities less than 100 lb/hr are set forth in Appendix B of this Chapter. Solid fuels charged will be considered part of the refuse weight. No. 1 and No. 2 fuel oils (distillate oils), liquified petroleum gases, gaseous fuels and combustion air will not be considered as part of the refuse weight.
252:100-17-5. Incinerator design requirements
As adopted in Oklahoma Register May 15, 2001 (18 Ok Reg 1489) effective June 1, 2001.
An incinerator subject to this Part must have:
(1) A primary burner that maintains a temperature of at least 800 degrees F in the primary combustion chamber.
(2) A secondary burner that shall be used when necessary to eliminate smoke.
252:100-17-5.1. Alternative incinerator design requirements
As adopted in Oklahoma Register May 15, 2001 (18 Ok Reg 1489) effective June 1, 2001.
The Director may approve an incinerator design that does not meet the design requirements in 252:100-17-5 if the owner of the proposed incinerator demonstrates to the DEQ that the incinerator can comply with all other applicable requirements.
252:100-17-7. Test methods
As adopted in Oklahoma Register June 15, 1998 (15 Ok Reg 2591) effective June 25, 1998.
(a) Opacity. Opacity shall be measured utilizing Method 9 - Visual Determination of the Opacity of Emissions from Stationary Sources found in the Code of Federal Regulations at 40 CFR Part 60, Appendix A. This method is hereby incorporated by reference as it exists on July 1, 1997.
(b) Particulate matter. Particulate matter shall be measured utilizing the appropriate DEQ-approved Method 5 found in the Code of Federal Regulations at 40 CFR Part 60, Appendix A. This method is hereby incorporated by reference as it exists on July 1, 1997.
