Sec. 63.1208  What are the test methods?

    (a) References. When required in subpart EEE of this part, the 
following publication is incorporated by reference, ``Test Methods for 
Evaluating Solid Waste, Physical/Chemical Methods,'' EPA Publication SW-
846 Third Edition (November 1986), as amended by Updates I (July 1992),

    (b) Test methods. You must use the following test methods to 
determine compliance with the emissions standards of this subpart:
    (1) Dioxins and furans. (i) You must use Method 0023A, Sampling 
Method for Polychlorinated Dibenzo-p-Dioxins and Polychlorinated 
Dibenzofurans emissions from Stationary Sources, EPA Publication SW-846, 
as incorporated by reference in paragraph (a) of this section, to 
determine compliance with the emission standard for dioxins and furans;
    (ii) You must sample for a minimum of three hours, and you must 
collect a minimum sample volume of 2.5 dscm;
    (iii) You may assume that nondetects are present at zero 
concentration.
    (2) Mercury. You must use Method 29, provided in appendix A, part 60 
of this chapter, to demonstrate compliance with emission standard for 
mercury.
    (3) Cadmium and lead. You must use Method 29, provided in appendix 
A, part 60 of this chapter, to determine compliance with the emission 
standard for cadmium and lead (combined).
    (4) Arsenic, beryllium, and chromium. You must use Method 29, 
provided in appendix A, part 60 of this chapter, to determine compliance 
with the emission standard for arsenic, beryllium, and chromium 
(combined).
    (5) Hydrochloric acid and chlorine gas. You may use Methods 26A, 
320, or 321 provided in appendix A, part 60 of this chapter, to 
determine compliance with the emission standard for hydrochloric acid 
and chlorine gas (combined). You may use Methods 320 or 321 to make 
major source determinations under Sec. 63.9(b)(2)(v).
    (6) Particulate matter. You must use Methods 5 or 5I, provided in 
appendix A, part 60 of this chapter, to demonstrate compliance with the 
emission standard for particulate matter.
    (7) Other Test Methods. You may use applicable test methods in EPA 
Publication SW-846, as incorporated by reference in paragraph (a) of 
this section, as necessary to demonstrate compliance with requirements 
of this subpart, except as otherwise specified in paragraphs (b)(2)-
(b)(6) of this section.
    (8) Feedstream analytical methods. You may use any reliable 
analytical method to determine feedstream concentrations of metals, 
chlorine, and other constituents. It is your responsibility to ensure 
that the sampling and analysis procedures are unbiased, precise, and 
that the results are representative of the feedstream. For each 
feedstream, you must demonstrate that:
    (i) Each analyte is not present above the reported level at the 80% 
upper confidence limit around the mean; and
    (ii) The analysis could have detected the presence of the 
constituent at or below the reported level at the 80%

upper confidence limit around the mean. (See Guidance for Data Quality 
Assessment--Practical Methods for Data Analysis, EPA QA/G-9, January 
1998, EPA/600/R-96/084).
    (9) Opacity. If you determine compliance with the opacity standard 
under the monitoring requirements of Secs. 63.1209(a)(1)(iv) and 
(a)(1)(v), you must use Method 9, provided in appendix A, part 60 of 
this chapter.
