Section R. 336.2510 - Mercury emissions testing, monitoring, recordkeeping, and reportingRule 1510.
(1) Compliance with the mercury emission standards for each affected EGU under these rules shall be demonstrated using the testing, monitoring, recordkeeping, and reporting requirements of R 336.2001, R 336.2004, R 336.2104, R 336.2150, R 336.2156, R. 336.2157 R 336.2158, R 336.2160, and R 336.2161 using calculation methodologies acceptable to the department.(2) Performance tests required by subrule (1) of this rule shall be conducted within 60 days following receipt of written notification from the department, unless otherwise authorized by the department. All of the following apply:(a) Performance tests shall be conducted and data reduced according to the reference test methods in R 336.2004.(b) Not less than 7 days before performance tests are conducted, the owner or operator, or his or her authorized agent, shall notify the department, in writing, of the time and place of the performance tests and who shall conduct them. A representative of the department shall have the opportunity to witness these tests.(c) Results of performance tests shall be submitted to the department in the format prescribed by the applicable reference test method within 60 days after the last date of the test.(3) Monitoring required by subrule (1) of this rule shall measure mercury emissions with a continuous emission monitoring system; an alternate method described in 40 C.F.R. part 60 or 75, adopted by reference in R 336.1802a, and acceptable to the department; or a method currently in use and acceptable to the department. The following apply: (a) An owner or operator of an affected EGU shall install, certify, and maintain monitoring not later than April 16, 2015. An owner or operator of an affected EGU shall comply with the quality assurance procedures in 336.2157.
(4) Recordkeeping shall include all data and calculations necessary to make compliance determinations in accordance with subrule (1) of this rule. Such recordkeeping shall be maintained at the EGU or other location and shall be kept in a manner acceptable to the department. The records shall be maintained for not less than 5 years after the date of expiration of the compliance demonstration plan.(5) Reporting required by subrule (1) of this rule, as specified by the department, shall be submitted to the department as follows:(a) Beginning April 30, 2015, and 30 days after the end of each calendar quarter thereafter, the owner or operator of each affected EGU shall submit a certified compliance report to the department with the following information:(i) Mercury emissions for the current quarter and total for the 12-month rolling average basis or time period as determined at the end of each calendar month for each EGU.(ii) Heat input for the current quarter and cumulative heat input for the total 12-month rolling average basis or time period as determined at the end of each calendar month.(iii) Gross electric output for the current quarter and cumulative output for the 12-month rolling average basis as determined at the end of each calendar month for each EGU that demonstrates compliance using an output-based emission standard.(iv) Any of the following that applies based on method of compliance:(A) Calculations used to determine mass emissions based on stack test data.(B) Calculations used to determine mass emissions based on sorbent trap data.(C) Alternative methodologies used to determine input mercury levels established under R 336.2505.(b) In addition, the report shall include the following information using the format in 40 C.F.R. §60.7, adopted by reference in R 336.1802a: (i) The date, time, magnitude of emissions and emission rates where applicable, of the affected EGU.(ii) If emissions or emission rates exceed the emissions or rates allowed by the applicable emission limit, the cause, if known, and any corrective action taken.(iii) The total operating time of the affected EGU during the quarter and the applicable compliance year.(iv) For continuous emission monitoring systems, system performance information shall include the date and time of each period during which the continuous monitoring system was inoperative, except for zero and span checks, and the nature of the system repairs or adjustments. If the continuous monitoring system has not been inoperative, repaired, or adjusted, then that information shall be stated in the report.Mich. Admin. Code R. 336.2510
