Footnotes:
1 Fuel burning and incineration limitation shall be calculated to 50% excess air.
2 Emission limitations for specific ratings are determined by linear interpolation between the ranges shown.
3 These emission limitations do not apply to domestic incinerators (defined as having not more than 5 cubic feet of storage capacity.
4 Afterburner or approved equivalent is mandatory.
5. Differentiation between jobbing and production foundries.
Cupolas used in a jobbing foundry are the same as those used in a production foundry and vary in size only according to the quantity of iron melted per hour.
However, the cupolas in a jobbing foundry are run intermittently just long enough at one time to pour the molds that are ready on the foundry floor, job by job. This might be for a 2- to 4-hour period per day for any number of days per week.
Production foundry cupolas melt continuously to pour a succession of molds that are constantly being prepared to reserve this continuous flow of iron. This could become 8 hours, 16 hours, or 24 hours per day for any number of days per week.
6 New processes or process equipment are defined as those for which the permit to install was issued after January 18, 1980.
7. Any existing cupolas are considered to be in compliance with table 31 of R 336.1331 if they meet the particulate emission limit for new cupolas.
8 Pounds of particulate per ton of charged material.
9 Milligrams per liter of total dissolved solids in the quench water.
10 Milligrams per liter of total dissolved solids in the make-up water.
11 Compliance shall be determined by means of a comparison between the emission limit and the measured emission rate calculated on a dry basis (pounds particulate per 1,000 pounds dry gas).
12 "Primary control equipment", as applied to basic oxygen furnaces, means the control equipment designed to capture and control particulate emissions during oxygen blowing.
13 "Secondary control equipment", as applied to basic oxygen furnaces, means the control equipment designed to capture and control particulate emissions during process steps other than oxygen blowing.
14 "Primary control equipment", as applied to electric furnaces, means the control equipment designed to capture and control particulate emissions during meltdown and refining.
15 "Secondary control equipment", as applied to electric furnaces, means the control equipment designed to capture and control particulate emissions during process steps other than meltdown and refining.
16 "Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater" (14th edition) section 208C, as modified in R 336.3033, shall be used as the applicable test method.
17 The mass emission limit specified is not applicable where fume suppression technology, approved by the commission, is used to control blast furnace casthouse emissions.

a Interpolation of the data in this table for process weight rates up to 60,000 lb/hr shall be accomplished by use of the equation E = 4.10 P0.67 and interpolation and extrapolation of the data for process weight rates in excess of 60,000 lb/hr shall be accomplished by use of the equation E = 55.0 P0.11 - 40, where E = rate of emission in lb/hr and P = process weight in tons/hr.
Process weight -- The total amount of all material introduced into a process, including solid fuels, but excluding liquid fuels and gaseous fuels when these are used as fuels and air introduced for purposes of combustion.
Process weight rate -- For continuous or long-term operation: The total process weight for the entire period of operation or for a typical portion thereof, divided by the number of hours of such period or portion thereof. For batch operations: The total process weight for a period which covers a complete operation or an integral number of cycles, divided by the hours of actual process operation during such period.
