2.0 Summary of Test Program
To satisfo the requirements of the UDEQ permit, the facility will conduct this performance test program to
determine the RA of the O:, CO:, SO:, NOx, CO and THC primary, secondary, and backup CEMS and the VFR
CERMS serving to monitor emissions from thc INC.
2.1 CenerslDescriptiotr
All testing will be performed in accordance with specifications stipulated in U.S. EPA Reference Test Methods l,2,
3A,4,6C,7E, 10,and25A. Table 2- l presents an outline and tontativ€ schedule for $e emissions testing program.
The following is a summary ofthe test objectives.
Emissions testing will be conducted at the control system exhaust stack for the incineration unit.
The RATA of the primary, secondary and backup CEMS will be conducted simultaneously \xhile the
source is operating at a normal representative load.
PS 2,3,4A.,6. and 8A will be used to determine the RA ofthe CEMS.
A minimum of nine (9), 2l-minute test runs will be conducted to measure emission concentrations of O:,
CO:, SO:, NOx, CO and THC. Concunently measured volumetric flow rate (VFR) will be used to calculate
NOx mass emission rates in units ofpounds per hour (lb,&r). Stack gas velocity traverses will be conducred
once per test run. A moisture (BWS) sampling period will span I to 3 or more test runs.
Emissions for each anal)te will be reponed as follows - O: and CO: - o/ovd; SOr ppmvd, ppmvd @7"/o
O:; NOx ppmvd, lb/hr; CO - ppmvd, ppmvd @ 1o/o O:, THC ppmvw, ppmvd @ 7% O:. and vFR -
actual cubic feet per minute (acfm).
Due to observed fluctuations in the diluent and pollutant concentrations, a stratification check may not be
conducted for the test progam, as waived in 2017 by UDAQ. Sampling will be conducted from a single
sample point for Methods 3A, 4, 78, l0 and 25A.
Bias and driff checks may be conducted after every three (3).2l-minute test runs in accordance with
Method 7E, Section 8.5
Ifnecessary, to calculate a CEMS RA, an emission standard will be back calculated from the concentration
or mass emission rate limit using the average rgferenca method measurements for O:, moisture (HrO)
and/or volumetric flow rate.
2.2 Process/Cotrtrol System Parameters to b€ Monitored arld Recorded
Plant personnel will collect operational and parametric data at least once every l5 minutes during the testing. The
following list identifies the measurements, observations and records $at will be collected during the testing
program:

directly to the analyzer, and the analyzer response recorded in an electronic field data sheet. The analyzer response
must agree within 2olo ofthe actual diluted gas concentration. A second Protocol I calibration gas, with a cylinder
concentration within l0% 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 27o. These steps will be repeated three (3) times.
3.9 Quality Assurance/Quality Control - U.S. EPA Refercnce Test Methods 3A, 6C, 7E and I0
Cylinder calibration gases will meet EPA Protocol I l+l- 2o/ol standards. Copies of all calibration gas certificates
will be included in the Quality Assurance/Quality Control Appendix ofthe report.
Low Level gas will be introduced directly to the analyzer. Afler adjusting the analyzer to the Low-Level 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. For the Calibration Error Test, Low, Mid, and High-Level calibration gases will be
sequentially introducad directly to the analyzer. The Calibration Error for each gas must be within 2.0 percent ofthe
Calibration Span or 0.5 ppmv/7o 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.cach 95 percent or 0.5 ppm/% (whichever was less restrictive) ofthe gas
concentration will be recorded. The analyzer reading will be observed unlil it rcaches a stable value, and this value
will be recorded. Next, Low-Level gas will be introduced ar the probe and the time required for the analyzer reading
to decrease to avalue within 5.0 perc€nt or 0.5 ppm/% (whichever was less restrictive) will be recorded. lfthe Low-
Levef gas is zero gas. the acceptable response must be 5.0 percent of the upscale gas concentration ot 0.5 ppmlo/"
(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 ofthe Calibration Span or 0.5 ppmv/% absolute difference.
High or Mid-Level gas (whichever is closerto the stack gas concentration) will be introduced at the probe. After the

The Drift between pre- and post-run Syst€m Bias must be within 3 percent of the Calibration Span or 0.5 ppmv/%
absolute difference or the Calibration Enor Test and System Bias musl be repeated,
To determine the number of sampling points, a gas stratification check will be conducted prior to initiating testing.
The pollutant concenrations will be measured at twelve traverce points (as described in Method l) or three points
(16.7, 50.0 and 83.3 percent ofthe m€asurement line). Each traverse point will be sampled for a minimum of twice
the system response time.
Ifthe pollutant concentration at each traverse point do not differ more than 5o/o or 0.5 ppnll,3o/o (whichever is less
restriclive) ofthe average pollutant concentration. then single point sampling will be conducted during the test runs.
Ifthe pollutant concentration does not mea these specifications but differs less than loyo or 1.0 ppm/0.5% from the
average concentration, then three (3) point sampling 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.E feet in diamerer 0.4, 1.0, and 2.0 meters
from the stack wall). If the pollutant concenfiation differs by more than l0% or 1.0 ppmlo.so/o from the average
concentration, then sampling will be conducted at a minimum oftwelve ( l2) traverse poins, Copies ofstralification
check data will be included in the Quality AsurancdQuality Control Appendix ofthe repon.
An NO: - NO converter check will be performed on the analyzer prior to initiating tesling or at the completion of
testing. An approximately 50 ppm nitrogen dioxide cylinder gas will be introduced directly lo the NOx analyzer and
the instrument response will be recorded in an electronic data sheet. The instrumenl response must be within +/- l0
percent of the cylinder concenration.
A Data Acquisition System with battery backup will be used to record the instrument response in one ( I ) minute
averages. The data will be continuously stored as a *.CSV file in Excel format on the hard drive ofa computer. At
the completion oftesting, the data will also be 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 repon coordinator and then a final review will be performed by the Project Manager.
Within two(2) hours prior to testing, zero gas will be introduced through th€ sampling system to lhe 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 conc€ntation will be recorded to determine the response time. Next, Low and Mid-
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 less than +/- 5 percent ofthe calibration gas concentrations.
Mid-Level gas will be introduced through the sampling system. After the analyzer response is stable, the value will
be recorded. Nexr, Zero gas will be introduced through the sampling system, and the analyzer value recorded once
it reaches a stable response. The Analyz€r Drift must b€ less than +/- 3 percent ofthe span value.

QwhN Assurance Propran
,t.0 Quality Assursnce 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 progam. 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 Equipmetrt
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 procadures. Therefore, replacemcnts for critical
equipment or components are brought to the job site. Equipment retuming from the field is inspected before it is
retumed to storage. During the course of these inspections, items are cleaned, repaired, reconditioned and
recal ibrated 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 Ill (EPA-600/R-94/038c, September 1994) are utilized.
When these methods arc 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 ofcalibration forms are included in the report.
The following sections elaborate on the calibIation procedures followed by Alliance for these items ofequipment
Drv Gas Meter and Orifice. A full meter calibration using critical orifices as the calibration standard is
conducted at least semi-annually. more fiequently ifrequired. The meter calibration procedure determines
the mete. conection factor (Y) and the meter's orifice pressure differential (AH@). Alliance uses approved
Altemative Method 009 as a post-test calibration check to ensure that the correction factor has not changed
more than 57o since the last full meter calibration. This check is performed after each test series.
Pitot Tubes and Manometers. Type-S pitot tubes that meel 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. lfaspecific coefficient from awindtunnel calibration has been
obtained that coefficient will be used in lieu of0.84. Standard pitot tubes that meet the geometric criteria
required by U.S. EPA Reference Test Method 2 are assigned a coe{Iicient of0.99. 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 funher calibration.
Temrrerature Measuring. Devices. All thermocou ple sensors mounted in Dry Gas Meter Consoles are
calibrated semi-annually wirh a NlsT-traceable thermocouple calibrator (temperature simulator) and
verified during field use using a second NlsT-traceable meter. NlsT-traceable thermocouple calibrators
are calibrated annually by an ouside laboratory.
Nozzles. Nozzles are measured three (3) times prior to initiating sampling with a caliper. The maximum
difference b€tween any two (2) dimensions is 0.004 in.
Disital Calipers. Calipers are calibrated annually by Alliance by using gage blocks that are calibrated
annually by an outside laboratory.

Barometer. The barometric pressure is obtained fiom 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 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 laborarory or intemally. If conducted intemally, they are weighed on a
NIST traceable balance. Ifthe weight does not meet the expected criteria, they are replaced.
Other Eqgipment. A mass flow controller calibration is conducted on each Environics system anlually
following the procedures in the Manufacturer's Op€ration manual. A methane/ethane penetration factor
check is conducted on the total hydrocarbon analyzers equipped with non-methane cutlers 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 pon will be sealed to prcvent air from leaking from the port.
. Dry gas meter, AP, AH, temperature and pump vacuum data will be recorded during each sample point.
. An isokinetic sampling tue of 90-1 l0% will be maintained, as applicable.
. All raw data will be maintained in organized manner.
. All raw dara will be reviewed on a daily basis for completeness and acceptability.
