Sec.  61.33  Stack sampling.



    (a) Unless a waiver of emission testing is obtained under Sec.  

61.13, each owner or operator required to comply with Sec.  61.32(a) 

shall test emissions from the source according to Method 104 of appendix 

B to this part. Method 103 of appendix B to this part is approved by the 

Administrator as an alternative method for sources subject to Sec.  

61.32(a). The emission test shall be performed--

    (1) Within 90 days of the effective date in the case of an existing 

source or a new source which has an initial startup date preceding the 

effective date; or

    (2) Within 90 days of startup in the case of a new source which did 

not have an initial startup date preceding the effective date.

    (b) The Administrator shall be notified at least 30 days prior to an 

emission test so that he may at his option observe the test.

    (c) Samples shall be taken over such a period or periods as are 

necessary to accurately determine the maximum emissions which will occur 

in any 24-hour period. Where emissions depend upon the relative 

frequency of operation of different types of processes, operating hours, 

operating capacities, or other factors, the calculation of maximum 24-

hour-period emissions will be based on that combination of factors which 

is likely to occur during the subject period and which result in the 

maximum emissions. No changes in the operation shall be made, which 

would potentially increase emissions

above that determined by the most recent source test, until a new 

emission level has been estimated by calculation and the results 

reported to the Administrator.

    (d) All samples shall be analyzed and beryllium emissions shall be 

determined within 30 days after the source test. All determinations 

shall be reported to the Administrator by a registered letter dispatched 

before the close of the next business day following such determination.

    (e) Records of emission test results and other data needed to 

determine total emissions shall be retained at the source and made 

available, for inspection by the Administrator, for a minimum of 2 

years.
