Abstract:
The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Engine Test Cells/Stands (40 CFR part 63, subpart PPPPP) apply to any existing, new, or reconstructed engine test cells/stands located at major source facilities that are used for testing internal combustion engines. An engine test cell/stand is defined as any apparatus used for testing uninstalled stationary or uninstalled mobile (motive) engines. A plant site is a major source of hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions if it emits or has the potential to emit any single HAP at a rate of 10 tons (9.07 megagrams) or more per year or any combination of HAPs at a rate of 25 tons (22.68 megagrams) or more per year. New and reconstructed facilities include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after May 14, 2002 (the date the NESHAP was proposed). In general, all NESHAP standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the affected facilities. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart PPPPP and must be maintained for at least 5 years from the date on which it was generated. Currently, the NESHAP also requires owners/operators to maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction (SSM) in the operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. However, the EPA is proposing amendments to the rule that would eliminate the SSM exemption; remove the SSM plan and SSM recordkeeping requirements; and require electronic submittal of performance test results.
