3.7 U.S. EPA Reference Test Method 205 - Gas Dilution System Certification
A calibration gas dilution system field check will be conducted in accordance with U.S. EPA Reference Method
205. An initial three (3) point calibration will be conducted, using individual Protocol I gases, on the analyzer used
to complete the dilution system field check. Multiple dilution rates and total gas flow rates will be utilized to force
the dilution system to perform fwo dilutions on each mass flow controller. The diluted calibration gases will be sent
directly to the analyzer, and the analyzer response will be recorded in an electronic field data sheet. A mid-level
supply gas, with a cylinder concentration within lloh of one of the gas divider settings described above, will be
introduced directly to the analyzer, and the analyzer response recorded in an electronic field data sheet. The
cylinder concentration and the analyzer response must agree within 2%o. These steps will be repeated three (3)
times. The average analyzer response must agree within2%o of the predicted gas concentration. No single injection
shall differ more than 2Yo from the average instrument response for that dilution.
3.8 Quality Assurance/Quality Control - U.S. EPA Reference Test Methods 3,{, 7E and l0
Cylinder calibration gases will meet EPA Protocol 1 (+l- 2%) standards. Copies of all calibration gas certificates

repeated for the High Level gas. For the Calibration Error Test, Low, Mid, and High Level calibration gases will be
sequentially introduced directly to the analyzer. The Calibration Error for each gas must be within 2.0 percent of the
Calibration Span or 0.5 ppmvl%o absolute difference.
High or Mid Level gas (whichever is closer to the stack gas concentration) will be introduced at the probe and the
time required for the analyzer reading to reach 95 percent or 0.5 ppm/% (whichever was less restrictive) of the gas
concentration will be recorded. The analyzer reading will be observed until it reaches a stable value, and this value
will be recorded. Next, Low Level gas will be introduced at the probe and the time required for the analyzer reading
to decrease to a value within 5.0 percent or 0.5 ppm/% (whichever was less restrictive) will be recorded. If the Low
Level gas is zero gas, the acceptable response must be 5.0 percent of the upscale gas concentration or 0.5 ppmlo/o
(whichever was less restrictive). The analyzer reading will be observed until it reaches a stable value and this value
will be recorded. The measurement system response time and initial system bias will be determined from these data.
The System Bias for each gas must be within 5.0 percent of the Calibration Span or 0.5 ppmv/7o absolute difference.
High or Mid l-evel gas (whichever is closer to the stack gas concentration) will be introduced at the probe. After the
analyzer response is stable, the value will be recorded. Next, Low Level gas will be introduced at the probe, and the
analyzer value will be recorded once it reaches a stable response. The System Bias for each gas must be within 5.0
percent of the Calibration Span or 0.5 ppmv/7o absolute difference or the data is invalidated and the Calibration
Error Test and System Bias must be repeated.
The Drift between pre- and post-run System Bias must be within 3 percent of the Calibration Span or 0.5 ppmv/%o
absolute difference or the Calibration Error Test and System Bias must be repeated.
To determine the number of sampling points, a gas stratification check will be conducted prior to initiating testing.
The pollutant concentrations will be measured at hvelve traverse points (as described in Method l) or three points
(16.7, 50.0 and 83.3 percent of the measurement Iine). Each traverse point will be sampled for a minimum of twice
the system response time.
If the pollutant concentration at each traverse point do not differ more than 5o/o or 0.5 ppml}.3Yo (whichever is less
restrictive) of the average pollutant concentration, then single point sampling will be conducted during the test runs.
lf the pollutant concentration does not meet these specifications but differs less than 10o/o or I.0 ppm/0.5% from the
average concentration, then three (3) point sarnpling will be conducted (stacks less than 7.8 feet in diameter - 16.7,
50.0 and 83.3 percent of the measurement line; stacks greater than 7.8 feet in diameter - 0.4, 1.0, and 2.0 meters
from the stack wall). If the pollutant concentration differs by more than I0% or 1.0 ppm/O.5%ofrom the average
concentration, then sampling will be conducted at a minimum of twelve ( I 2) traverse points. Copies of stratification
check data will be included in the Qualify Assurance/Quality Control Appendix of the report.
An NO: - NO converter check will be performed on the analyzer prior to initiating testing or at the completion of
testing. An approximately 50 ppm nitrogen dioxide cylinder gas will be introduced directly to the NOx analyzer and
the instrument response will be recorded in an electronic data sheet. The instrument response must be within +/- l0
percent of the cylinder concentration.
A Data Acquisition System with battery backup will be used to record the instrument response in one (l) minute
averages. The data will be continuously stored as a *.CSV file in Excel format on the hard drive of a computer. At
the completion of testing, the data will also be saved to the Alliance server. All data will be reviewed by the Field

EPA Protocol I Calibration Gases - Cylinder calibration gases used will meet EPA Protocol I (+l- 2%) standards.
Copies of all calibration gas certificates will be provided in the Quality Assurance/Quality Control Appendix.
Zero gas will be introduced through the sampling system to the analyzer. After adjusting the analyzer to the Zero
gas concentration and once the analyzer reading is stable, the analyzer value will be recorded. This process will be
repeated for the High Level gas, and the time required for the analyzer reading to reach 95 percent of the gas
concentration will be recorded to determine the response time. Next, Mid and Low Level gases will be introduced
through the sampling system to the analyzer, and the response will be recorded when it is stable. All values must be
within +-/- 5%o of the calibration gas concentrations.
Post Test Drift Checks - Mid Level gas will be introduced through the sampling system. After the analyzer
response is stable, the value will be recorded. Next, Zero gas will be introduced through the sampling system, and
the analyzer value recorded once it reaches a stable response. The Analyzer Drift must be less than 3 percent of the
Calibration Span.
Data Collection - A Data Acquisition System with battery backup will be used to record the instrument response
(analog 0-10 volt signal) in one (l) minute averages. The data will be continuously stored as a *.CSV file in Excel
format on the hard drive of a desktop computer. At the completion of the emissions testing the data will be also
saved to the Alliance server. All data will be reviewed by the Field Team Leader before leaving the facility. Once
aniving at Alliance's office, all written and electronic data will be relinquished to the report coordinator and then a
final review will be performed by the Project Manager.

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.
o 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 rneter's orifice pressure differential (AH@). Alliance uses approved
Alternative Method 009 as a post-test calibration check to ensure that the correction factor has not changed
more than 50% since the last full meter calibration. This check is performed after each test series.
r 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
determinedfromawindtunnel calibration. lfaspecificcoefficientfromawindtunnel calibrationhasbeen
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.
r Temperature Measurinq 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.
. Diqital Calipers. Calipers are calibrated annually by Alliance by using gage blocks that are calibrated
annually by an outside laboratory.

FAliatpe Site Specific Tesr Plan
Qua lity Assurance Progrant
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 ofservice.
Balances and Weishts. 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 intemally, 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. 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:
o 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.
e The sampling port will be sealed to prevent air from leaking from the port.
. Dry gas meter, AP, AH, temperature and pump vacuum data will be recorded during each sample point..
o All raw data will be maintained in organized manner.
. All raw data will be reviewed on a daily basis for completeness and acceptability.
