Sec. 57.303  Total plantwide emission limitation.

    (a) Calculation of the emission limitation. Each NSO shall contain a 
requirement limiting the total allowable emissions from the smelter to 
the level which would have been associated with production at the 
smelter's maximum production capacity (as defined in Sec. 57.103(r)) as 
of August 7, 1977. This limitation shall be expressed in units of mass 
per time and shall be calculated as the sum of uncontrolled process and 
fugitive emissions, and emissions from any control systems (operating at 
the efficiency prescribed under Sec. 57.302). These emission rates may 
be derived from either direct measurements or appropriately documented 
mass balance calculations.
    (b) Compliance with the emission limitation. Each NSO shall require 
the use of specific, enforceable testing methods and measurement periods 
for determining compliance with the limitation established under 
paragraph (a) of this section.
