Parameter U.S. EPA Reference
Test Methods Notes/Remarks
Volumetric Flow Rate 1 & 2 Full Velocity Traverses
Moisture Content 4 Gravimetric Analysis
Particulate Matter 5 / 202 Isokinetic Sampling
Visible Emissions 9 Certified Observer
All stack diameters, depths, widths, upstream and downstream disturbance distances and nipple lengths will be
measured on site with an EPA Method 1 verification measurement provided by the Field Team Leader. These
measurements will be included in the test report.
3.1 U.S. EPA Reference Test Methods 1 and 2 – Sampling/Traverse Points and Volumetric Flow Rate
The sampling location and number of traverse (sampling) points will be selected in accordance with U.S. EPA
Reference Test Method 1. To determine the minimum number of traverse points, the upstream and downstream
distances will be equated into equivalent diameters and compared to Figure 1-1 in U.S. EPA Reference Test Method
1.
Full velocity traverses will be conducted in accordance with U.S. EPA Reference Test Method 2 to determine the
average stack gas velocity pressure, static pressure and temperature. The velocity and static pressure measurement
system will consist of a pitot tube and inclined manometer. The stack gas temperature will be measured with a K-
type thermocouple and pyrometer.
The molecular weight will be assumed to be 30.0 lb/lb-mole for volumetric flow rate calculations.
3.2 U.S. EPA Reference Test Method 4 – Moisture Content
The stack gas moisture content will be determined in accordance with U.S. EPA Reference Test Method 4. The gas
conditioning train will consist of a series of chilled impingers. Prior to testing, each impinger will be filled with a
known quantity of water or silica gel. Each impinger will be analyzed gravimetrically before and after each test run
on the same analytical balance to determine the amount of moisture condensed.
3.3 U.S. EPA Reference Test Methods 5 and 202 – Total Particulate Matter
The total particulate matter (filterable and condensable PM) testing will be conducted in accordance with U.S. EPA
Reference Test Methods 5 and 202. The complete sampling system will consist of a glass nozzle, glass-lined probe,
pre-weighed quartz filter, coil condenser, un-weighed Teflon filter, gas conditioning train, pump and calibrated dry
gas meter. The gas conditioning train will consist of a coiled condenser and four (4) chilled impingers. The first
and second impingers will be initially empty, the third will contain 100 mL of de-ionized water and the last impinger
Site Specific Test Plan
Testing Methodology
AST-2024-1796 Interstate – Hurricane, UT Page 3-2
will contain 200-300 grams of silica gel. The un-weighed 90 mm Teflon filter will be placed between the second
and third impingers. The probe liner heating system will be maintained at a temperature of 248 ±25°F, and the
impinger temperature will be maintained at 68°F or less throughout testing. The temperature of the Teflon filter will
be maintained greater than 65°F but less than or equal to 85°F.
Following the completion of each test run, the sampling train will be leak checked at a vacuum pressure greater than
or equal to the highest vacuum pressure observed during the run. If condensate is collected in the first dry impinger,
then the front-half of the sample train (the nozzle, probe, and heated pre-weighed filter) will be removed in order to
purge the back-half of the sample train (coil condenser, first and second impingers and CPM filter). A glass bubbler
will be inserted into the first impinger. If needed, de-ionized ultra-filtered (DIUF) water will be added to the first
impinger to raise the water level above the bubbler, then the coil condenser will be replaced. Zero nitrogen will
connected to the condenser, and a 60-minute purge at 14 liters per minute will be conducted. After the completion
of the nitrogen purge the impinger contents will be measured for moisture gain. The nitrogen purge will be omitted
if minimal condensate is collected in the dry impingers.
The pre-weighed quartz filter will be carefully removed and placed in container 1. The probe, nozzle and front half
of the filter holder will be rinsed three (3) times with acetone to remove any adhering particulate matter and these
rinses will be recovered in container 2. All containers will be sealed, labeled and liquid levels marked for transport
to the identified laboratory for filterable particulate matter analysis.
The contents of impingers 1 and 2 will be recovered in container CPM Cont. #1. The back half of the filterable PM
filter holder, the coil condenser, impingers 1 and 2 and all connecting glassware will be rinsed with DIUF water and
then rinsed with acetone, followed by hexane. The water rinses will be added to container CPM Cont. #1 while the
solvent rinses will be recovered in container CPM Cont. #2. The Teflon filter will be removed from the filter holder
and placed in container CPM Cont. #3. The front half of the condensable PM filter holder will be rinsed with DIUF
water and then with acetone, followed by hexane. The water rinse will be added to container CPM Cont. #1 while
the solvent rinses will be added to container CPM Cont. #2. All containers will be sealed, labeled and liquid levels
marked for transport to the identified laboratory for condensable particulate matter analysis.
3.4 U.S. EPA Reference Test Method 9 – Visible Emissions Evaluations
The stack gas opacity will be determined in accordance with U.S. EPA Reference Test 9. Visible emission
evaluations will be conducted by a certified visible emissions evaluator. Opacity readings will be recorded in 15-
second intervals during each of three (3) 60-minute evaluations.
Site Specific Test Plan
Quality Assurance Program
AST-2024-1796 Interstate – Hurricane, UT Page 4-1
4.0 Quality Assurance Program
Alliance follows the procedures outlined in the Quality Assurance/Quality Control Management Plan to ensure the
continuous production of useful and valid data throughout the course of this test program. The QC checks and
procedures described in this section represent an integral part of the overall sampling and analytical scheme.
Adherence to prescribed procedures is quite often the most applicable QC check.
4.1 Equipment
Field test equipment is assigned a unique, permanent identification number. Prior to mobilizing for the test
program, equipment is inspected before being packed to detect equipment problems prior to arriving on site. This
minimizes lost time on the job site due to equipment failure. Occasional equipment failure in the field is
unavoidable despite the most rigorous inspection and maintenance procedures. Therefore, replacements for critical
equipment or components are brought to the job site. Equipment returning from the field is inspected before it is
returned to storage. During the course of these inspections, items are cleaned, repaired, reconditioned and
recalibrated where necessary.
Calibrations are conducted in a manner, and at a frequency, which meets or exceeds U.S. EPA specifications. The
calibration procedures outlined in the U.S. EPA Methods, and those recommended within the Quality Assurance
Handbook for Air Pollution Measurement Systems: Volume III (EPA-600/R-94/038c, September 1994) are utilized.
When these methods are inapplicable, methods such as those prescribed by the American Society for Testing and
Materials (ASTM) or other nationally recognized agency may be used. Data obtained during calibrations is checked
for completeness and accuracy. Copies of calibration forms are included in the report.
The following sections elaborate on the calibration procedures followed by Alliance for these items of equipment.
• Dry Gas Meter and Orifice. A full meter calibration using critical orifices as the calibration standard is
conducted at least semi-annually, more frequently if required. The meter calibration procedure determines
the meter correction factor (Y) and the meter’s orifice pressure differential (ΔH@). Alliance uses approved
Alternative Method 009 as a post-test calibration check to ensure that the correction factor has not changed
more than 5% since the last full meter calibration. This check is performed after each test series.
• Pitot Tubes and Manometers. Type-S pitot tubes that meet the geometric criteria required by U.S. EPA
Reference Test Method 2 are assigned a coefficient of 0.84 unless a specific coefficient has been
determined from a wind tunnel calibration. If a specific coefficient from a wind tunnel calibration has been
obtained that coefficient will be used in lieu of 0.84. Standard pitot tubes that meet the geometric criteria
required by U.S. EPA Reference Test Method 2 are assigned a coefficient of 0.99. Any pitot tubes not
meeting the appropriate geometric criteria are discarded and replaced. Manometers are verified to be level
and zeroed prior to each test run and do not require further calibration.
• Temperature Measuring Devices. All thermocouple sensors mounted in Dry Gas Meter Consoles are
calibrated semi-annually with a NIST-traceable thermocouple calibrator (temperature simulator) and
verified during field use using a second NIST-traceable meter. NIST-traceable thermocouple calibrators
are calibrated annually by an outside laboratory.
• Nozzles. Nozzles are measured three (3) times prior to initiating sampling with a caliper. The maximum
difference between any two (2) dimensions is 0.004 in.
• Digital Calipers. Calipers are calibrated annually by Alliance by using gage blocks that are calibrated
annually by an outside laboratory.
Site Specific Test Plan
Quality Assurance Program
AST-2024-1796 Interstate – Hurricane, UT Page 4-2
• Barometer. The barometric pressure is obtained from a nationally recognized agency or a calibrated
barometer. Calibrated barometers are checked prior to each field trip against a mercury barometer. The
barometer is acceptable if the values agree within ± 2 percent absolute. Barometers not meeting this
requirement are adjusted or taken out of service.
• Balances and Weights. Balances are calibrated annually by an outside laboratory. A functional check is
conducted on the balance each day it is use in the field using a calibration weight. Weights are re-certified
every two (2) years by an outside laboratory or internally. If conducted internally, they are weighed on a
NIST traceable balance. If the weight does not meet the expected criteria, they are replaced.
• Other Equipment. A mass flow controller calibration is conducted on each Environics system annually
following the procedures in the Manufacturer’s Operation manual. A methane/ethane penetration factor
check is conducted on the total hydrocarbon analyzers equipped with non-methane cutters every six (6)
months following the procedures in 40 CFR 60, Subpart JJJJ. Other equipment such as probes, umbilical
lines, cold boxes, etc. are routinely maintained and inspected to ensure that they are in good working order.
They are repaired or replaced as needed.
4.2 Field Sampling
Field sampling will be done in accordance with the Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) for the applicable test
method(s). General QC measures for the test program include:
• Cleaned glassware and sample train components will be sealed until assembly.
• Sample trains will be leak checked before and after each test run.
• Appropriate probe, filter and impinger temperatures will be maintained.
• The sampling port will be sealed to prevent air from leaking from the port.
• Dry gas meter, ΔP, ΔH, temperature and pump vacuum data will be recorded during each sample point.
• An isokinetic sampling rate of 90-110% will be maintained, as applicable.
• All raw data will be maintained in organized manner.
• All raw data will be reviewed on a daily basis for completeness and acceptability.
4.3 Analytical Laboratory
Analytical laboratory selection for sample analyses is based on the capabilities, certifications and accreditations that
the laboratory possesses. An approved analytical laboratory subcontractor list is maintained with a copy of the
certificate and analyte list as evidence of compliance. Alliance assumes responsibility to the client for the
subcontractor’s work. Alliance maintains a verifiable copy of the results with chain of custody documentation.
