OPERATING STATUS: Unit 1 operating
Unit 2 operating
PROCESS DESCRIPTION: The PacifiCorp Huntington Power Plant is a coal-fired steam electric
generating plant consisting of two boilers. Unit #1 is a 480 MW unit
constructed in October 1973; Unit #2 is a 480 MW unit that commenced
construction in April 1970. Bituminous and sub-bituminous coal is the
primary fuel source for the dry bottom, tangentially-fired boilers. Local
mines deliver coal via trucks. A newly installed, real time coal analyzer
continually checks the sulfur content and other constituents for BTU
values in the coal. Coal is combusted in a large furnace (each unit) and
heat is transferred to boiler tubes in the walls of the furnace. Sufficient
heat is generated to produce steam suitable for use in a steam turbine.
The turbine generators convert the steam to mechanical power to drive
the generator for the purpose of producing electricity. Fuel oil is used to
start up the boilers from a cold start and for boiler flame stabilization.

To control emissions, the Huntington Power Plant uses baghouses, flue
gas desulphurization scrubbers (FGD), and low NOX burners for Units
#1 and Unit #2. Coal silos are controlled with dust collectors. Perimeter
roads and coal processing are covered by an approved fugitive dust
control plan.

(b) Opacity shall be used as a performance indicator of the baghouse to provide a reasonable
assurance of compliance with the PM emission limitation as specified below:
(1) Measurement Approach: Opacity is measured directly by COMS installed in each baghouse
outlet duct.
(2) Indicator Range:
(A) An excursion is defined as a 24-hour daily average opacity value greater than the baseline
level of 5%. Annually, the permittee should develop a new excursion level during annual
performance test using the modified method under 60.48Da(o)(2)(iii) and (iv) (NSPS Subpart
Da). The new value of the opacity excursion level shall be determined by averaging all of the 6-
minute average opacity values from the COMS measurements recorded during each of the test
run intervals conducted for the performance test plus 2.5 percent, or a total opacity value of 5.0%,
whichever is greater.
(B) Excursions trigger a baghouse inspection, corrective actions and a reporting requirement. The
permittee must initiate investigation of the relevant equipment and control systems within 24
hours of the first discovery of the high opacity incident and take the appropriate corrective action
as soon as practicable to adjust control settings or repair equipment to reduce the measured 24-
hour average opacity to a level below the baseline opacity level. If the measured 24-hour average
opacity remains at a level greater than the opacity baseline level after seven boiler operating days,
a new particulate matter performance test will be conducted to establish a new opacity baseline
value. This new performance test will be conducted within 60 days of the date that the measured
24-hour average opacity was first determined to exceed the baseline opacity level unless a waiver
is granted by the Director. (40 CFR 60.8Da(o)(2)(iv) and (vi))
(3) Performance Criteria:
(A) Data Representativeness: Measurements made by COMS shall provide a direct indicator of
the baghouse performance. COMS shall be installed and operated in accordance with 40 CFR
Part 60, Appendix B, Performance Specification 1 and R307-170.
(B) QA/QC Practices and Criteria: COMS shall be operated, calibrated, and maintained to meet
40 CFR 60, Appendix B, Performance Specification 1.
(C) Monitoring Frequency: Opacity shall be monitored continuously with opacity values
averaged every minute.
23
(D) Data Collection Procedure: Opacity data shall be recorded and stored electronically.
(E) Averaging Period: Use continuous opacity data to calculate 6-minute averages and the 6-
minute averages to calculate the 24-hour daily average opacity.
II.B.2.c.2 Recordkeeping:

(1) Measurement Approach:
Opacity is measured directly by a COM installed in the baghouse outlet duct.
(2) Indicator Range:
(A) An excursion is defined as a 24-hour daily average opacity value greater than the baseline
level of 5%. Annually, the permittee should develop a new excursion level during annual
performance test using the modified method under 60.48Da(o)(2)(iii) and (iv) (NSPS Subpart
Da). The new value of the opacity excursion level shall be determined by averaging all of the 6-
minute average opacity values from the COMS measurements recorded during each of the test
run intervals conducted for the performance test plus 2.5 percent, or a total opacity value of 5.0%,
whichever is greater.
35
(B) Excursions trigger a baghouse inspection, corrective actions and a reporting requirement. The
permittee must initiate investigation of the relevant equipment and control systems within 24
hours of the first discovery of the high opacity incident and take the appropriate corrective action
as soon as practicable to adjust control settings or repair equipment to reduce the measured 24-
hour average opacity to a level below the baseline opacity level. If the measured 24-hour average
opacity remains at a level greater than the opacity baseline level after seven boiler operating days,
a new particulate matter performance test will be conducted to establish a new opacity baseline
value. This new performance test will be conducted within 60 days of the date that the measured
24-hour average opacity was first determined to exceed the baseline opacity level unless a waiver
is granted by the Director. (40 CFR 60.8Da(o)(2)(iv) and (vi))
(3) Performance Criteria:
(A) Data Representativeness: Measurements made by COM shall provide a direct indicator of the
baghouse performance. COM shall be installed and operated in accordance with 40 CFR Part 60,
Appendix B, Performance Specification 1 and R307-170.
(B) QA/QC Practices and Criteria: COM shall be operated, calibrated, and maintained to meet 40
CFR 60, Appendix B, Performance Specification 1.
(C) Monitoring Frequency: Opacity shall be monitored continuously with opacity values
averaged every minute.
(D) Data Collection Procedure: Opacity data shall be recorded and stored electronically.
I Averaging Period: Use continuous opacity data to calculate 6-minute averages and the 6-minute
averages to calculate the 24-hour daily average opacity.
