Sec.  61.63  Emission standard for vinyl chloride plants.



    An owner or operator of a vinyl chloride plant shall comply with the 

requirements of this section and Sec.  61.65.

    (a) Vinyl chloride formation and purification: The concentration of 

vinyl chloride in each exhaust gas stream from any equipment used in 

vinyl chloride formation and/or purification is not to exceed 10 ppm 

(average for 3-hour period), except as provided in Sec.  61.65(a). This 

requirement does not preclude combining of exhaust gas streams provided 

the combined steam is ducted through a control system from which the 

concentration of vinyl chloride in the exhaust gases does not exceed 10 

ppm, or equivalent as provided in Sec.  61.66. This requirement does not 

apply to equipment that has been opened, is out of operation, and met 

the requirement in Sec.  61.65(b)(6)(i) before being opened.
