                   TITLE 40--PROTECTION OF ENVIRONMENT
 
                           AGENCY (CONTINUED)
 
PART 266--STANDARDS FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF SPECIFIC HAZARDOUS WASTES AND 
SPECIFIC TYPES OF HAZARDOUS WASTE MANAGEMENT FACILITIES--Table of Contents
 
  Subpart H--Hazardous Waste Burned in Boilers and Industrial Furnaces
 
Sec. 266.105  Standards to control particulate matter.

    (a) A boiler or industrial furnace burning hazardous waste may not 
emit particulate matter in excess of 180 milligrams per dry standard 
cubic meter (0.08 grains per dry standard cubic foot) after correction 
to a stack gas concentration of 7% oxygen, using procedures prescribed 
in 40 CFR part 60, appendix A, methods 1 through 5, and appendix IX of 
this part.
    (b) An owner or operator meeting the requirements of Sec. 266.109(b) 
for the low risk waste exemption is exempt from the particulate matter 
standard.
    (c) Oxygen correction. (1) Measured pollutant levels must be 
corrected for the amount of oxygen in the stack gas according to the 
formula:

Where:
Pc is the corrected concentration of the pollutant in the stack gas, Pm 
    is the measured concentration of the pollutant in the stack gas, E 
    is the oxygen concentration on a dry basis in the combustion air fed 
    to the device, and Y is the measured oxygen concentration on a dry 
    basis in the stack.

    (2) For devices that feed normal combustion air, E will equal 21 
percent. For devices that feed oxygen-enriched air for combustion (that 
is, air with an oxygen concentration exceeding 21 percent), the value of 
E will be the concentration of oxygen in the enriched air.
    (3) Compliance with all emission standards provided by this subpart 
must be based on correcting to 7 percent oxygen using this procedure.
    (d) For the purposes of permit enforcement, compliance with the 
operating requirements specified in the permit (under Sec. 266.102) will 
be regarded as compliance with this section. However, evidence that 
compliance with those permit conditions is insufficient to ensure 
compliance with the requirements of this section may be ``information'' 
justifying modification or revocation and re-issuance of a permit under 
Sec. 270.41 of this chapter.
