NR 460.02(31g)(c)(c) The term “source reduction” does not include any practice that alters the physical, chemical or biological characteristics or the volume of a hazardous substance, pollutant or contaminant through a process or activity which itself is not integral to and necessary for the production of a product or the providing of a service.
NR 460.02(32)(32)“Reconstruction”, unless otherwise defined in a relevant standard, means the replacement of components of an affected or a previously nonaffected source to such an extent that all of the following apply:
NR 460.02(32)(a)(a) The fixed capital cost of the new components exceeds 50% of the fixed capital cost that would be required to construct a comparable new MACT source.
NR 460.02(32)(b)(b) It is technologically and economically feasible for the reconstructed source to meet the relevant standards established by the administrator or by the department pursuant to section 112 of the act (42 USC 7412). Upon reconstruction, an affected source, or a stationary source that becomes an affected source, is subject to relevant standards for new MACT sources, including compliance dates, irrespective of any change in emissions of hazardous air pollutants from that source.
NR 460.02 NoteNote: The question of whether a relocated source is reconstructed is addressed in s. NR 460.05 (3m).
NR 460.02(33)(33)“Regulation promulgation schedule” means the schedule for the promulgation of emission standards under 40 CFR part 63, established by the administrator pursuant to section 112 (e) of the act (42 USC 7412 (e)) and published in the federal register.
NR 460.02(34)(34)
NR 460.02(34)(a)(a) “Relevant standard” means any of the following established pursuant to section 112 of the Act (42 USC 7412) that applies to the collection of equipment, activities, or both regulated by the standard or limitation:
NR 460.02(34)(a)1.1. An emission standard.
NR 460.02(34)(a)2.2. An alternative emission standard.
NR 460.02(34)(a)3.3. An alternative emission limitation.
NR 460.02(34)(a)4.4. An equivalent emission limitation.
NR 460.02(34)(b)(b) A relevant standard may include or consist of a design, equipment, work practice or operational requirement, or other measure, process, method, system or technique, including prohibition of emissions, that the administrator or the department establishes for new or existing sources to which the standard or limitation applies. Every relevant standard established pursuant to section 112 of the Act (42 USC 7412) includes Subpart A of 40 CFR part 63, as provided by 40 CFR 63.1 (a) (4), and all applicable appendices of 40 CFR part 63 or other parts of title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations that are referenced in that standard.
NR 460.02(35)(35)“Run” means one of a series of emission or other measurements needed to determine emissions for a representative operating period or cycle as specified in chs. NR 460 to 469.
NR 460.02(36)(36)“Shutdown” means the cessation of operation of an affected source or portion of an affected source for any purpose.
NR 460.02(37)(37)“Six-minute period” means, with respect to opacity determinations, any one of the 10 equal parts of a 1-hour period.
NR 460.02(37g)(37g)“Source at a performance track member facility” means a major or area source located at a facility which has been accepted by EPA for membership in its Performance Track Program and is still a member of the Program.
NR 460.02 NoteNote: The Performance Track Program is a voluntary program that encourages continuous environmental improvement through the use of environmental management systems, local community outreach, and measurable results. It is described on EPA’s Web site at www.epa.gov/performancetrack.
NR 460.02(37r)(37r)“Startup” means the setting in operation of an affected source or portion of an affected source for any purpose.
NR 460.02(38)(38)“Test method” or “method” means the validated procedure for sampling, preparing and analyzing for an air pollutant specified in a relevant standard as the performance test procedure. The test method may include methods described in an appendix of title 40 of the code of federal regulations which has been incorporated by reference in s. NR 484.04 for chs. NR 460 to 469, or methods validated for an application through procedures in Method 301 of Appendix A of 40 CFR part 63 which is incorporated by reference in s. NR 484.04 (25).
NR 460.02(38g)(38g)“Title V permit” means any permit issued, renewed or revised under ch. NR 407 for a part 70 source as defined in s. NR 407.02 (6).
NR 460.02(39)(39)“Visible emission” means the observation of an emission of opacity or optical density above the threshold of vision.
NR 460.02(40)(40)“Working day” has the meaning given for “business day” in s. NR 400.02 (36m).
