Dear Mr. Miller:
Re: Big West Oil – Pretest Protocol for Flow, Oxygen (O2), and Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) and
Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) Relative Accuracy Test – Davis County
The Utah Division of Air Quality (DAQ) reviewed Big West Oil’s pretest protocol dated March
17, 2025. The proposed test shall be performed under the following conditions:
Big West Oil’s monitoring system to be certified:
Point Source Channel Manufacturer Model # Monitor SN
West Flare H2S Extrel Core Mass MAX 300-IG 61727
South Flare H2S Extrel Core Mass MAX 300-IG 61728
Amine Unit H2S Ametek 5100 HD 1021950
SRU O2 Emerson / Rosemount X-Stream X2 XMF08002693435
SO2 Emerson / Rosemount X-Stream X2 XMF08002693435

Relative accuracy must be determined in the units of the emission standard or equivalent units of
the emission standard, i.e., tons/year shall be tested in pounds/hour or lb Hg/MM ton clinker
30-DRA shall be tested as lb Hg/MM ton clinker.
The DAQ understands that Alliance Source Testing will conduct testing as follows:

• Reference Method 1 - Sample and Velocity Traverses for Stationary Point Sources
as outlined in 40 CFR 60 Appendix A shall be used to determine the location and
number of sampling points as applicable.
• Reference Method 3A - Determination of Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide
Concentrations in Emissions from Stationary Point Sources – (Instrumental
Analyzer Procedure) as outlined in 40 CFR 60 Appendix A.
• Reference Method 4 - Determination of Moisture Content in Stack Gases as
outlined in 40 CFR 60 Appendix A shall be used to determine the stack gas
moisture content.
• Reference Method 6C - Determination of Sulfur Dioxide Emissions from
Stationary Point Sources - (Instrumental Analyzer Procedure) as outlined in 40
CFR 60 Appendix A.
• Reference Method 7E - Determination of Nitrogen Oxide Emissions from
Stationary Point Sources - (Instrumental Analyzer Procedure) as outlined in 40
CFR 60 Appendix A.
• Reference Method 10 - Determination of Carbon Monoxide Emissions from
Stationary Point Sources – (NDIR Instrumental Procedure) as outlined in 40 CFR
60 Appendix A.
• Reference Method 15 - Determination of H2S Concentrations Using a Gas
Chromatograph with Flame Photometric Detector as outlined in 40 CFR 60
Appendix A. Zero drift and calibration drift checks are required in accordance with
Performance Specification 7.

• Deviations - The Director or the representative of the Director must be notified of
and approve deviations of the Reference Method test. Any deviation from these
conditions without approval from the DAQ may constitute rejection of these tests.
Acceptance of a protocol does not relieve the owner/operator and the testing
contractor from strict adherence to all applicable EPA methods, DAQ policies,
Utah Air Quality Rules (UAQR), and methods approved by the Director. Any
deviation from EPA methods, DAQ policies, UAQR, and methods approved by the
Director must be addressed separately and express written consent given prior to
commencement of testing.
• Field data shall be provided to the DAQ in a timely manner for review.
• The Director will determine the relative accuracy of each monitoring system based
on Point Source continuous emission monitoring data and test data acquired by the
staff member of the DAQ during the test.
• All test reports must be submitted to the Director not later than 60 days after
completion of the test.
• The test report shall include all raw calibration data, raw emission data with date,
time stamps.
Relative accuracy test reports must contain:
1. Point source continuous monitor, channel, manufacturer, and serial number,
2. Raw stack test data and continuous monitor data with date and time stamps.
3. Emission data reported in concentration (ppm or %) and units in the applicable
emission limit.
The DAQ requires that all test reports include a statement signed by a responsible official
certifying that:
1. Testing was conducted while the Point Source was operating at the rate and/or
conditions specified in the applicable approval order, operating permit, or federal
regulation.
2. During testing, the Point Source combusted fuels, used raw materials, and
maintained process conditions representative of normal operations, and operated
under such other relevant conditions specified by the Director.
3. Based on information and belief formed after reasonable inquiry, the statements
and information contained in the report are true, accurate, and complete.
