3.O Sampling and Analytical Procedures
3.1 Test Methods
The test methods for this test program have been presented in Table 1-1. Additional
information regarding speciflc applications or modificatlons to standard procedures ls
presented below,
3.1,1 EPA Method 2G, Determination of Stack Gas Velocity and
Volumetric Flow Rate with Two-Dimensional Probes
EPA Method 2G is used to measure the veloclty pressure and the yaw angle of the flow
velocity vector ln a stack or duct using a 2-D probe. Alternatively, these measurements are
made by operating one of the three-dimenslonal (3-D) probes described in Method 2F, ln
yaw determination-only mode. From these measurements and a determination of the stack
gas density, the average near-axial velocity of the stack gas is calculated. The near-axial
velocity accounts for the yaw, but not the pitch, component of flow. The average gas
volumetric flow rate in the stack or duct is then determined from the average near-axlal
veloclty.
Pertinent information regarding the pefformance of the method ls presented below:
. Target andlor Minlmum Required Sample Duration: >5 minutes
The typical sampling system is detailed in Figure 3-1.

3.L.2 EPA Methsd 4
Determination of Moisture Content in Stack Gas
EPA Method 4 is a manual, non-isokinetic method used to measure the molsture content of
gas streams. Gas is sampled at a constant sampling rate through a probe and impinger
train. Moisture is removed using a series of pre-weighed impingers containing methodology-
specific liquids and silica gel immersed in an ice water bath. The impingers are weighed
after each run to determine the percent moisture.
The typical sampling system is detailed in Figure 3-2.

3.1.3 EPA Methods 3A, 6C, 7E, and 1O
Determination of Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide, Sulfur Dioxide, Nitrogen Oxides,
and Carbon Monoxide Concentrations in Emissions from Stationary Sources
(lnstrumental Analyzer Procedures)
Concentrations of Oz, COz, SOz, NOx, and CO are measured simultaneously using EPA
Methods 3A, 6C, 7E, and 10, which are instrumental test methods. Conditioned gas is sent
to a series of analyzers to measure the gaseous emission concentrations. The peformance
requirements of the method must be met to validate the data.
Pertinent information regarding the performance of the method is presented below:
o Method Options:
o Sampllng is performed using a dilution probe
o NO and NOz are measured separately and summed to report NOx
emissions
o The alternatlve NOx conv€rt€r efficiency test described in EPA Method 7E
Section 16.2 may be used (bag procedure)
o Gas stratification testing ls performed across a grid of 12 points
determined using EPA Method 1 in accordance with 40 CFR Part 60.
Aopendix B. PS2 68.1.3.2 and 40 CFR Part 75. Aooendlx A. 66.5.6.1.
Stratification testing is performed for two minutes per traverse polnt in
accordance with 40 CFR Part 75, Appendix A, 66.5.6.1(c). If diluent and
pollutant concentrations are within 5olo of their mean concentrations,
subsequent gas RATA testing is performed at a single point in the stack as
allowed by 40 CFR Paft 60. Appendix B. PS2 68.1.3.2 and 40 CFR Part 75.
Apoendix A 66.5.6.3(b). If diluent and pollutant concentrations are within
10o/o of their mean concentrations, RATA testing is pefformed at three
points located 0.4 meter, 1.0 meter and 2.0 meters from the stack wall,
as requlred by 40 CFR Part 60. Apoendix B. PS2 68.1.3.2 and 40 CFR Part
75, Appendix A, 66.5.6.1(a).
The typical sampling system is detailed in Figure 3-3.

responsible for preparation, calibration, and cleaning of the sampling apparatus. Montrose
will also perform the sampling, sample recovery, storage, and shipping. Approved contract
laboratories may perform some of the preparation and sample analyses, as needed.
4.2 Quality Control Procedures
Montrose calibrates and maintains equipment as required by the methods performed and
applicable regulatory guidance. Montrose follows internal procedures to prevent the use of
malfunctioning or inoperable equipment in test programs. All equipment is operated by
trained personnel. Any incidence of nonconforming work encountered during testing is
reported and addressed through the corrective action system.
,q".7,1 rr:q[{iprrretrt }ri$ip€,r.]t,Ior, ancl Marnie**r,n cq
Each piece of field equipment that requires calibration is assigned a unique identification
number to allow tracking of its calibration history. All field equipment is visually inspected
prior to testing and includes pre-test calibration checks as required by the test method or
regulatory agency.
4,?.,2 Atrrlit Sarrrtp:les
When required by the test method and available, Montrose obtains EPA TNI SSAS audit
samples from an accredited provider for analysis along with the samples. Currently, the
SSAS program has been suspended pending the availability of a second accredited audit
sample provider. If the program is reinstated, the audit samples will be ordered. If required
as paft of the test program, the audit samples are stored, shipped, and analyzed along with
the emissions samples collected during the test program. The audit sample results are
repofted along with the emissions sample results.

4,3 Data Analysis and Validation
Montrose converts the raw field, laboratory, and process data to reporting units consistent
with the permit or subpaft. Calculations are made using proprietary computer spreadsheets
or data acquisition systems. One run of each test method is also verified using a separate
example calculation. The example calculations are checked against the spreadsheet results
and are included in the final report. The "Standard Conditions" for this project are 29.92
inches of mercury and 68 oF.
4,4 Sample Identification and Custody
No samples are required to be recovered for this test program,
4.5 Quality Statement
Montrose is qualified to conduct this test program and has established a quality
management system that led to accreditation with ASTM Standard D7036-04 (Standard
Practice for Competence of Air Emission Testing Bodies). Montrose participates in annual
functional assessments for conformance with D7O36-O4 which are conducted by the
American Association for Laboratory Accreditation (A21-A). All testing performed by Montrose
is supervised on site by at least one Qualified Individual (QI) as defined in D7035-04
Section 8.3.2. Data quality objectives for estimating measurement uncertainty within the
documented limits in the test methods are met by using approved test protocols for each
project as defined in D7036-04 Sections 7.2.1and 12.10. Additional quality assurance
information is included in the appendices. The content of this test plan is modeled after the
EPA Emission Measurement Center Guideline Document (GD-042).
4.6 Reporting
Montrose will prepare a final repoft to present the test data, calculations/equations,
descriptions, and results. Prior to release by Montrose, each repoft is reviewed and ceftified
by the project manager and their supervisor, or a peer. Source test reports will be
submitted to the facility or appropriate regulatory agency (upon customer approval) within
25 days of the completion of the field work. The report will include a series of appendices to
present copies of the intermediate calculations and example calculations, raw field data,
laboratory analysis data, process data, and eQuipment calibration data.

Site Safety Plan and JHA Purpose and !nstructions
Purpose
Employee safety is the top priority of Montrose Environmental Group. All employees must be
trained to assess and mitigate hazards. The District Manager and Project Manager are
responsible to ensure all hazards have been properly identified and managed. All employees
have Stop Work Authority in all situations where an employee feels they or their co-worker
cannot perform a job safely or if there is a task for which they have not been adequately trained.
The Site Safety Plan (SSP) has been developed to help assist Montrose test crews with
identifying physical and health hazards and determining how the hazards will be managed.
Additionally, the SSP will help each crew manage the safety of the employees by providing
emergency procedures and information. The booklet contains a several safety forms that may
be required in the field.
lnstructions
The SSP consists of the following:
1. A Pre-Mobilization Test Plan - To be completed in it's entirety by the client project Manager
prior to the test.
2. A Job Hazard Analysis is a standardized, two-page, fillable form that is used to evaluated the
tasUsite's particular hazards and controls. The form also includes a daily toolbox topic and
daily hazard review with sign off by the team. The client Project Manager is responsible to
complete the JHA form through section 8. Upon arrival at the test site, the team will review the
form for accuracy, making any corrections required and complete the remainder of the JHA.
Section 9 will require at least three tasks, hazards and controls be identified for the project.
Each team member has the option to discuss making changes or adding to the JHA and must
sign on the Job Hazard Analysis form in agreement and sign in Section 10. The JHA is to be
modified when conditions change. A toolbox meeting with a daily topic in addition to a review of
the hazard analysis is required daily for the duration of the test. An additional sheet of paper
with the toolbox topic and signatures can be added to the SSP packet.
3. Hazard Control Matrix - contains useful information on both engineering and
administrative controls that a crew can use to reduce or eliminate the hazards they have
observed plus applicable PPE that may be required.
4. Emergency Action Plan - The Job Supervisor/ Client Project Manager (CPM) will complete
the Emergency Action Plan form and ensure that all employees are familiar with the facility
emergency and evacuation procedures, assembly/ rally points, alert systems, and signals prior
to work commencing. ln the event of an emergency situation/ evacuation, the Job Supervisor/
CPM will maintain a roster and be responsible for accounting for all employees. The Job
Supervisor/ CPM will ensure that this Emergency Action Plan Form is completed,
communicated to all employees, signed, and posted.
5. Additional Forms, as applicable

Site Safety Plan and JHA Purpose and lnstructions
The SSP is a living document. The Project Manager should continually update their SSPs as
new information and conditions change or if new hazards are presented.
Each completed SSP should be maintained with the Test Plan in the office for a period of 3
years. There will be an audit process developed for the Site Safety Plans.
