Title: Update of Continuous Instrumental Test Methods: Technical Amendments
Abstract: This action was published as a direct final with a parallel proposal, 72 FR 51365, September 7, 2007. An adverse comment was received. This action amends a rulemaking entitled "Update of Continuous Instrumental Test Methods" that was promulgated on May 15, 2006. This rulemaking updated, harmonized, and simplified Methods 3A, 6C, 7E, 10, and 20 which measure oxygen, carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and carbon monoxide emissions from stationary sources. As published, the May 15, 2006, final rule contained inadvertent errors and created minor unanticipated test situations that need to be clearly addressed. This final action corrects the errors and clearly explains how the unanticipated situations are handled. These amendments do not make significant changes or add new provisions to the rule nor raise issues that have not been addressed in the public comment period to the updated rule. We are simply correcting errors and clarifying portions to reflect the intent of the rule and make them more understandable by applicable parties.
