Note: The total withdrawal may be determined by the equation: Total withdrawal (scf) = hours of operation of pilot test (hr) x average flow rate in cubic feet per minute at standard conditions (scfm) x 60 min/hr. An example is: 10 hours of operation x 250 scfm X 60 min/hr = 150,000 scf When testing at multiple flow rates, determine the withdrawal for each flow rate and sum the withdrawals for a total withdrawal.
Note: An owner or operator exempt under this subsection is responsible for complying with all other applicable requirements in chs. NR 400 to 499.
Note: An owner or operator exempt under this subsection is responsible for complying with all applicable requirements in chs. NR 400 to 499, including construction permit requirements identified in ch. NR 406 and all conditions contained in a permit issued under ch. NR 406.

NR 407.03 (2) (d) The maximum theoretical emissions from the source for any hazardous air contaminant listed in Table A, B or C of s. NR 445.07 do not exceed the emission rate listed in the table for the hazardous air contaminant for the respective stack height. For the purposes of determining emissions under this paragraph, the owner or operator of a source is not required to consider emissions of hazardous air contaminants associated with agricultural waste.
285.28 Agricultural waste; hazardous air contaminants. The department may not regulate the emission of hazardous air contaminants associated with agricultural waste except to the extent required by federal law.
Note: Owners and operators of facilities emitting less than 3 tons of volatile organic compounds and 5 tons of particulate matter on an annual basis, or who engage in limited or no manufacturing activities, should refer to s.
